The Traps of Time Songtext
von Saline Grace

The Baltic Sea discloses
Our shadows lost in the sand
Those arduous paths to come
We′re struggling night and day

The onshore wind compels
Fallen trees, admonish silently
We're fleeting guests on earth
Who vanish with every breath
Struggling night and day


Yesterday, each moment′s fate
I try to keep your hands in mine
Always pursued by the traps of time

Mankind climbs the highest mountain
Conquers the bottom of the sea
Like a malign growth that kills
We're struggling night and day

A dying seabird breathes hard
Mindless compassion mortifies
Estrangement, our tragic fate
We're man-made prisoners
Struggling night and day


Yesterday, each moment′s fate
I try to keep your hands in mine
Always pursued by the traps of time
