Altered States Lyrics

Roaming vast fields of ashes

Treading through chaotic lands

Rays of illumination

Scattering the mist of fate

Away from myself and all that I thought was real

It's dawned on me I'm now in a new realm

Violent abruption of my ignorant existence

Why have I walked so blindly

Fearing death with every step?

Breathe in new life from sorrow

Will this light blind my eyes?

Wandering through this world

I choose to hide my deepest fears

But the shadows cast from my own darkness

Seem to light my way now

Reaching now altered states of mind

Inner peace is what I find

Seeking truth, this finds me now

Burying deep the past mirage

Violent abruption of my ignorant existence

Why have I dragged myself here

Feeling dread in every breath?

Breathe in new life from sorrow

Will this light blind my sight?

Countless revelations

Have unmasked my deepest fears

Still the shadows cast from my own darkness

Seem to light my way again

Fading out... from a world of half-truth tales

Treading forth - Break away

False illusions - I'm standing tall

Will these veils now clear away?

Wounds they heal as I make my own way

Wandering through this world

Enslaved to phantoms of my own mind

Feel the shadows fall behind me

Now my own light guides my way... home
