lyrics

I woke up one morning and couldn't open my eyes,
But for some reason my sight wasn't gone.

Something was weird about that place,
For a second I thought I was dead.

As if mesmerized, I went to the mirror,
And it was my biggest mistake.

Well, after all, it doesn't matter at all,
'Cause meeting it was inevitable,
But a rainbow comes only after a storm,
Shining with sparks of a new hope.

If you walk through thick walls,
You can stuck there and lose control.
If there is noise in your door lock,
Being silent won't help at all.

If you raise your shaking hand,
Don't be surprised it will be sore as hell.
If you hear voices behind your spine,
You'd better not to turn around.

Trapped in this room I tried to scream on it,
Begging it, "Go away, just not again,"
But all my efforts were in vain,
'Cause it stood still as if bound in chains.

The cold reflection only stared quietly.
The eeriest was that this lifeless thing looked like me.

But a rainbow comes only after a storm,
Shining with sparks of a new hope.

If you can't move anything,
Try to stay calm or else you are doomed.
If you see something in a corner,
Don't even doubt, it'll try to get closer.

A squeezing feeling in the throat
Doesn't mean something sits on your chest,
But if you fall down on the floor,
Don't ever think of looking under the bed.

I harshly violated all these binding rules
And hastily escaped the depressing room.
I wanted nothing, but the only one thing – to break free
From the boring mundanity and the bleak reality.

I'm flying among white clouds,
But I've never felt so sad.
If I keep going bravely,
It will follow me.

Neither heavy rain, nor forks of flame
Will drown my dreams or burn my wings.
Many deep fears, the only one wish – to break free
From the boring mundanity and the bleak reality.

I'm flying towards gray clouds,
But I've never felt so happy.
If I fall downhearted and weak,
Still...

It will follow me
Like easy prey.
It will follow me,
It will follow me eternally.

Like a venomous snake,
It will follow me,
It will follow me silently.

Even if I run to the middle of nowhere,
Where nobody lives, it won't be gone.

It clang to me just once,
Now it follows me
And it will follow me at my heels.

It will follow me
Like easy prey.
It will follow me,
It will follow me eternally.

Like a venomous snake,
It will follow me,
It will follow me silently.

Even if I run to the middle of nowhere,
Where nobody lives, it won't be gone.

It clang to me just once,
Now it follows me
And it will follow me at my heels.

Like a shadow in the night,
I can't see it, but I can hear it deep inside.
Thunderclouds and lightning have covered the horizon,
This is the time to face it...

But a rainbow comes only after a storm,
Shining with sparks of a new hope.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
Taking people to the dark.
It hides the world down below,
Filled with rains and a piercing cold.

So, next time you fall asleep,
Don't neglect this useful tip.
Though it can be dreadful and terrible,
As well as colorful, beautiful,

Be careful, it can be a dream in a dream.
It will swallow you before you know it.
Don't lose touch with reality.
Think twice, it may not be worth it.
