Paradoxes Lyrics

Paradoxes lyrics

The evening sun shines on the sea

Forgotten dreams come back to me

A river run dry returns in flood

Running through my veins

Running through my blood



It was a very special magic moment's glance

A dreamer back in paradise

A dancer lost in trance

Every word you said still echoes in my ears



When I close my eyes I still hear every noise

I would not waste a minute, if I had the choice

If I could make the winds raise with a prayer

I would call them all to take me there



Rivers run dry, but waters flow

No sun in the sky, but flowers grow

A silent scream that hurts my ears

A friendly word that causes fears



That's what we are

We live in the age of the paradox man

In riddles we speak and riddles we are

I cannot take anymore



From the day of our birth we are searching for tenderness

For the love we need and acceptance we seek without cautiousness

With every day that goes by our demands grow

While our conscience seems to get less

I am just like this myself

And so that is what I confess



It is a wired game we play

Everyone so led astray

How I wish there was somebody

That I could count upon



How many times in my life have I sold my own identity

Have I been the victim of my own incapacity



It's an endless flow

A constant up and down

Sometimes we are close to reach a shore

Sometimes we are close to drowning

Forever it goes on

From our first day to the last

There are some precious moments in between

They are all I need

They are all I care for



Rivers run dry, but waters flow

No sun in the sky, but flowers grow

"Yes" we say, but "No" we mean

Mostly things are not what they seem



That's how it is

We live in an age of paradoxes

Encoded in riddles

But nobody knows what they mean anymore



Wasting years with a second's levity

Undermining laws of gravity

Generations sacrificed on the altar of progress

If there would only be a place somewhere

That could offer me some rest

Where I could stay until this storm is over

So here is my request



It's an endless flow

A constant up and down

Sometimes we are close to reach a shore

Sometimes we are close to drowning

Forever it goes on

From our first day to the last

There are some precious moments in between

They are all I need

They are all I care for



Higher than high becomes lower than low

We go faster than fast, but move slower than slow

Perspectives change in the moment of truth

The travesty ends in the moment of proof



It was a very special magic moment's glance

A dreamer back in paradise

A dancer lost in trance

Every word you said still echoes in my ears

The shining sparkle in your eyes

This is all I need

This is all I care for
