lyrics

I just found myself
tumbling through a dark and silent place
nothing straight – strange ways
There´s a voice inside my head
that mistrusts everything
nothing clear – nothing is near

I need to get my faith back
give my self another shape
I´m trying to excape
And so I´m searching out there
for the words to clothe my thoughts
they must be there somewhere

Because I belong to the other side
where the sun shines and the time flies
is there anyone who knows the way back again
can you please take my hand and pull me back again
I try
I try to get by
I just try to get by

So I am running and I´m screaming
through that dark and silent place
nothing straight – strange ways
And still the voice inside my head
fills my mind with doubts and fear
nothing clear – nothing is near

But every coin has two sides
and every day another shape
so I´m trying to escape
And I am searching out there
for the key to the other side
it must be there somewhere

Because I belong to the other side
where the sun shines and time flies
is there anyone who knows the way back again
can you please take my hand and pull me back again

`cause I belong where the time flies
where hope makes the sun rise
where the wind blows fast through the mountains high
got nothing to loose everything to try
try to get by
I just try to get by
