Can it be that the pain that you know
Comes from a place far below
Twisting and turning with fear
Trying to surface again
Rearing its spawn to what end
Where can you hide from this fear
Treadmill of despair
Time is drawing near
To the end?
The mortal coil endures the toils of life
The endless fight that takes my will away
But deep within resides the silent dream
To leave the world behind
What's a dream when I'm here in my cell
You tell me to work in this hell
All is confusion and tears
Who's to blame for the turmoil in me
Can help when I yearn for the steel
That quenches the anguish I feel
Treadmill of despair
Time is drawing near
To what end?
The mortal coil endures the toils of life
The endless fight that takes my will away
But deep within resides the silent dream
To leave the world behind
The mortal coil endures the toils of life
The endless fight that takes my will away
But deep within resides the silent dream
To leave the world behind
