By Design Songtext
von Devlsy

So frail, yet never ending. The dream.
Of early, uneasy morning hours. Or so it seems
Glass walls surrounding me – I′m locked
from inside, madly looking for a place to hide


I'm running out of air, I′m suffocating
And every single sense in an alarming tension
Screams to me:
You're on the island, there's a shore.

Wading the night, only saved by the dawn and the morning
Steep is the climb, even steeper the ridge I′ll be falling from
Reckless is my flight as I am driven forward in panic
By coincidence or by design I feel I′m being chased, gasping

I'm ankle-deep in the sea of broken shards and hopes
And as I′m wading onwards I feel my head explode

By coincidence or by design
The flesh is being torn-off my spine
