Sometimes
Dark Nightmare Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes in your life black clouds hide the sun
You find impasses and thorns along your path
Your will is slowly draining and your dreams fade away
Despair is mirrored in your face sadness blocks your way

Sometimes you wonder why is life so hard
where is the justice and the joy of the heart
You are drowned in your thoughts you feell alone and cold
But in the freezing night rekindle the flame you hold

Look at a little child's smile in his eyes filled with love
search for a shoot in a burning wood its the genesis of hope




Never stop dreaming always fight and strive
Hold on to your ideals keep the flame alive
