Reach Songtext
von Symphress

Life lived in ruins, love′s grim undoings
Mother, you were always so right
Years passing by me, fears lurk inside me
Father, I am lost, bring me home

Help me, help me find my way
Save me, hide me from the pain

Reach out, free me
Help me chase away the time

There shall come a day when I'll run away
My quest may only end when I′m no more
Redamancy, sour epiphany
I'll leave you as a prey to the light

Help me, bring about that day
Save me, hide me from the pain

Reach out, free me
Help me chase away the time
Don't wait, I′m ready
Reach out for me


Mortal, there shall be no escape
And when the lights go down
When the sun is set
Will you reach for me?
I′ll open up, I'll take my chance
Don′t let me rot
Don't punish me

Reach out, free me
Help me chase away the time
Don′t wait, I'm ready
Reach out for me (reach out for me)

And it′s haunting me, this little Eden that I've found
I thought I could be close to the end of the tunnel, but the light only got dimmer
My restlessness becoming second nature
Oh, how the mighty have fallen
What have I done wrong, you ask
One day I will find out, one day when my quest shall reach its end
And the one-way road to forsakenness will turn into redamancy
I do long for that, and in sequences
And as you might've guessed, I cannot control the sequences

Mother and father have departed
This lurid Eden I found is now all that remains
And what remains of me is all but empty canvas
Akin to naked sheets of music


Where has the music gone? Did time steal it as well?
Just as it stole my dreams, I suppose
Just as it stole you from me
But in the midst of chaos and bedlam, reveries have struck me
And in this cathartic comatose which swept me beyond daydreaming
I have seen reason and I have tasted belief
The clock is ticking but the world is moving
Death is luring, but life, life is willing to resist

Through still life, we shall uncover the past
And creations will then become immortal
And with them, we will last, beyond the Father′s domain
In the garden where no poisoned song may be heard
Calling with the siren′s sensuous tongue

All we need is one spark, a moment, if you will
Once I hold on to this moment, never will I let go
The circle will have been completed
The poet and the play will have been readied
Kronos will have fallen

Know that I did not yet reach the gates at the end of this orchard of time
But nonetheless I have found something of much greater value
I have reached the way
I have found myself
