I'm awake
can see the earthquake
the tornado sweeps
while the whole world sleeps

running through the streets
how fast my heart beats
searching for somebody
wanna find anybody

flying so fast
my feed don't touch the ground
where sharp pieces of glass
are lying around

have to reach the refuge
before the deluge
it comes so fast
like in the past

trying to flee
can't find the key
to open the gate
and escape the weight

there's a lock
around my mind
the ticking clock
makes me blind

have to find the key
have to blow up the cage
till I can see
the open stage

turn on the lights
nothing to see
no helpful knights
nowhere to be

an empty stage
almost
turn the page
and you'll see the ghost

nearly invisible
but you are able
to see through the night
and find the burning light

your mind is a cage
but you must escape
have to disengage
stop the tape

endless thoughts
sleepless hours
without a clue
how to glow

just cover the pain
break te game
show your lies
take the advice

be the ghost
you're afraid of the most
show the queen
who you can be

tell her to see
that an invisible creature
is her enemy
