Vortex
Arthemis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In a world of illusion
Tell me what you do to survive
Lies and corruption
Generate a chain reaction
Burning down, ravishing my head
Swimming into phobia
Hear these evil voices calling me
No more way to follow
No more yesterday and tomorrow
Strive, bring this nightmare to an end
Yes I am wrong
But I won't regret my world without it
WAKE wake me up
Wake me up
Is it a dream or a nightmare?
WAKE wake me up
Through thunders and lighnings
Calling at my name
Before I lose my strength
Aliens and preachers
Wicked men and funny creatures
Hunting me, knockin' at my door
Wicked revolution
Bleeding hands, blood pollution
Take me into a vortex killing me
Yes I am wrong
But I won't regret my world without it
WAKE wake me up
Wake me up
Is it a dream or a nightmare?
WAKE wake me up
Through thunders and lighnings
Calling at my name
Before I lose my strength
