Mystery Trip
Rage Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Once again I fell sleep
Drowned in a deadlike state, far too deep
There she came, in my dreams
Showed me places I never had seen

But I don't remember anything
It's just that I've seen everything
And I want to have it one more time, what can I do

Hear me now! S.O.S., I'm calling you
Take me out to a mystery trip
Hear me now! S.O.S., I'm calling you
Once again on a mystery trip

Felt so low, felt so down
Searched for eyes I never had found
Still I need more of this
Though she wasn't alive when we kissed

And I want to meet her once again




To get another chance and then
I will hopefully remember when I'm leaving here...

Once again I fell sleep
I fell asleep again


Drowned in a deadlike state, far too deep
I was in a state of deep sleep, far from the waking world


There she came, in my dreams
I saw her in my dream


Showed me places I never had seen
She showed me places that were unfamiliar to me


But I don't remember anything
I don't recall anything specific


It's just that I've seen everything
But it feels like I've seen everything before


And I want to have it one more time, what can I do
I want to experience it again, but what can I do?


Hear me now! S.O.S., I'm calling you
Listen to me! I need your help


Take me out to a mystery trip
Take me out to an exciting adventure


Once again on a mystery trip
I'm going on another exciting adventure


Felt so low, felt so down
I was feeling sad and depressed


Searched for eyes I never had found
I searched for something I never found before


Still I need more of this
But I still want more of this experience


Though she wasn't alive when we kissed
Even though she's not alive anymore, we had a moment together


And I want to meet her once again
I want to meet her one more time


To get another chance and then
To have another opportunity


I will hopefully remember when I'm leaving here...
I hope I will remember this experience when I leave this world
