2830 And when the night comes I am awake (herid 08 The Loop 0585)

[Grand Piano] [Verse 1] The city sleeps deep Yet I am wide awake Thoughts ascend so steep Each day is a chess game's stake [Prechorus] A shadow dances In the moonlight's trances [Chorus] When the night falls, I stay awake Every night When the day breaks, my strength's at stake Growing slight With each breath I take, with every pace Inside out I perceive my life's embrace Inside out [guitar solo with sustained notes and doom feeling, Dark, sacred, monumental] [Verse 2] The birds begin to sing their tune A new dawn breaks the night My mind's filled with a silent run Of unheard music's light [Bridge] A circle turns around, without a start or end The time slips by, each moment's flame will rend [Chorus] When the night comes, I am awake Every single night When the day dawns, I feel so frail Weak with morning light With each breath I take, every tread Inside and out I perceive life's intricate thread Inside and out [guitar solo with sustained notes and doom feeling, Dark, sacred, monumental] [Bridge] Jeder Spiegel fragt mich leise Wer bist du heute Wer warst du gestern Doch ich atme Also bleib ich Noch ein bisschen Wieder mal [Outro] With every breath, every stride I take I see life, though it's all a mistake I stumble forward, yet my mind's in a race In circles, spinning at a relentless pace Too fast, too loud, yet strangely mute [guitar solo with sustained notes and doom feeling, Dark, sacred, monumental] [Grand Piano solo doom feeling, monumental] [stay muted for 3 seconds, then end, fade out]
