Remorse
Buried Dreams Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Lyrics: Valdespino)
(Music: Valdespino)

I think I've been mistaken
On my phatetic way of being
since that I have
No where to run no where to hide
So now I have to defend myself
With a special guarantee
My future is expecting
I have to end it all right now

Searching and waiting
Though all these lost years
There's nothing but
silence-confussion
some pictures-illusions

How can I wait for hope?
when it comes like a rope
to my neck, to my being

Nothing but shapless thoughts
Too much heat inside
Blinded moves, fear of wrath

(Chorus)
So here I stand
Lika a ghost sculped in time
who can be my guide?

Someone in front of my
He knows about my silent destiny
I feel anguish
I'm riding the tomb of the gods

(Solo Ndua)

When the night fall
His shining eyes reinforce
The lip's warm smile

It was an image of that
Secure, peaceful and quitness
Like a beauty extension

The silence, the call have some gloom
Everything is so peacefull
That I feel buried in a sea of stone
The atmosphere is shrinking
But the sun falls
And the moon grows
It's getting cold

(Chorus)

All I can hear are dark symphonies
All I can see is some white light
At the moment I hear a dirge for me
I'm Walking my last steps alive
It's seems I'm sick
Of a pain with no cure

Beyond the fear
Trough loneliness I walk
Holding the stone
With my shrapened teeth

(Solo Tono)

Searching and waiting....

(Solo Ndua)

That's death

Finally I've reached
The land of death surrounds me
By trying
Not Dying

Just about the time I leave
And after all I've said
There's nothing more I care about
but my last will

But at least I have
the strenght to face it
I give a hand to death
With brightness on my eyes

I feel there's nothing more
inside of me




But I will smile
When I die!!!
