Overlife - Under God's Blinded Eyes lyrics

rate me

THAT NIGHT WAS DIFFERENT

EVERYTHING WAS ASLEEP AND THE SILENCE KEPT THE MISTERY OF THE DARKNESS

SOMETHING WAS GOING TO HAPPEN THAT WOULD CHANGE MY LIFE FOREVER,

I WENT TO BED, I TURNED OFF THE LIGHT

AND WHILE I WAS SLEEPING I HAD A STRANGE DREAM

IN MY DREAM I WOKE UP AT DAWN

IT WAS SIX O'CLOCK AND THE COLD FILLED THAT MOURNING

LIKE NEVER BEFORE,

I FELT THAT SOMETHING WAS GOING WRONG.

THAT DAY MY EYES DIED, THEY LOST THEIR FAITH

ALL THE THINGS THEY SAW WERE SAD AND GREY

THERE WERE NO GREEN FIELDS,

THEY HAD BEEN BURNT BY OUR HATE.

THERE WERE NO PLANTS AND MEN WORE OXIGEN MASKS TO BREATH

BECAUSE THE PURE AIR WAS SO FAR AWAY, AND THE DANGER WAS SO NEAR

SUDDENLY I FELT LOST, ALONE IN THAT HELL

LOOKING FOR AN ANSWER FOR ALL THAT EMPTYNESS

LOST, COS EVERYTHING WAS LOST

ALONE, COS ANYBODY CARED

WHY WERE ALL THE TREES ARE DEAD?

WHY WERE ALL HILLS LOST?

WHY COULDN'T I SEE GREEN ANYWHERE?

WHO COULD GIVE ME AN ANSWER FOR THAT DARK RAINY DAY?

SUDDENLY I HEARD A VOICE.

WHY DID I SEE STRANGE PICTURES

OF MEN KILLING NATURE, HIDING

THE TRUTH?

WHY WERE ALL THOSE MEN BLIND,

WHY DID THEY DESTROY THEIR LIFE?

WHY WERE THOSE MEN CRYING AND WHY WAS ONE OF THOSE MEN ME

AND WHY WERE MY HANDS DIRTY, WITH BLOOD?

GAIA, WHO ARE YOU? ARE YOU MY MOTHER?

I AM THE EARTH YOU STEP ON, THE AIR YOU BREATH

BUT NOW THIS EARTH BURNS ME AND THIS AIR POISON ME

IF YOU GAVE ME THE LIFE,

WHY DO WE HAVE TO BE ENEMIES

BECAUSE HUMAN HEART IS PAIN

AND PAIN IS HATE AND HATE IS DEATH.

LET THAT THIS EARTH BURNS ME, LET THAT THIS EARTH POISONS ME,

BUT DON'T LET ALL THIS ENDS NOW

DON'T LET OUR FEELINGS DIE

MAYBE WE STOLE OURSELVES EVERYTHING

BUT STILL WE HAVE TIME IN OUR LIVES.
