Desperate Times

Andre Andersen

Cold. The night is crawling, surrounding every corner of our lives

Wait - somebody's waiting for you to close your eyes...



Sleep. Whole world's asleep. I hear the darkness rising from the deep

Deep, a lake so deep, reflecting every star you've ever seen.

Time flies. Better open up your eyes - you're living in the desperate times



Pain. I'm used to pain, it leads me through the neverending rain

Rain, that heartless rain won't wash my sins and helpless tears away

But I know - now it's time to hold the line



'Coz I'll live, yes I'll live

I'll cross the sea of madness on the wave of disbelief

Countless miles through the lies

A wind of change will take me far away from our desperate times,

Those lonely times



Gone. Forever gone my sense of time, I've lost it on the run

Run, I've always run from everything I've seen an' done

But now... Now it's time to draw the line, time to hold the line



'Coz I'll live, yes I'll live

I'll cross the sea of madness on the wave of disbelief

Countless miles through the lies

A wind of change will take me far away from our desperate days

Faceless days, lonely days

Keep pushing me around and leaving scars across my face

In my eyes our live's a neverending struggle to escape

From our desperate times
