The Phantom Agony

by Dash Berlin

I can't see you, i can't hear you
do you still exist?
I can't feel you, i can't touch you,
do you exist?
The phantom agony
I can't taste you
I can't think of you
Do we exist at all
The future doesn't pass
And the past
Won't overtake the present
All that remains
Is an obsolete illusion
We are afraid
Of all the things
That could not be
A phantom agony
Do we dream at night
Or do we share the same old fantasy
I am a silhouette
Of the persen wandering in my dreams
We are afraid
Of all the things
That could not be
A phantom agony
Tears of unprecedented beauty
Reveal the truth of existence
We're all sadists
The age old development
Of consciousness
Drives us away from
The essence of life
We meditate too much
So that our instincts
Will fade away
They fade away
What's the point of life
And what's
The meaning if we all die in the end
Does it make sense to learn
Or do we forget everything
We are afraid
Of all the things
That could not be
A phantom agony
Tears of unprecedented beauty
Reveal the truth of existence
We're all pessimists
The age old development
Of conciousness
Drives us away from
The essence of life
We meditate too much
So that our instincts
Will fade away
They fade away
Teach me how to see and free
The disbelief in me
What we get is what we see
The phantom agony
A te spiritus noster devoratur et nostra anima capitur
The lucidity of my mind
Has been revealde in new dreams
I'am able to travel where my heart goes
In search of self realisation
This is the way to escape
From our agitation
And develop ourselves
Use your illusion
And enter my dream
