In the Wake of My Demise Lyrics


(Music & Lyrics by C. Kötterl)

Verse 1:

Surrounded by pointing fingers

At the futility of my life

I feel so unwelcome

For my demise they strive

Suffering this self-loathing

I start to tie my own noose

The coin gets flipped another time

Heads - you win, tails - I lose

Verse 2:

Paranoia is the next step on my way

To a state where all I feel

Are the eyes burning holes into my back

The night of the unspoken rules

I will take my soul and flee

And leave them to feast on my body

I will leave them my heart to devour

Pre-chorus:

In The Wake Of My Demise the world rebuilds itself

Wipe me off the surface and the world rebuilds itself

Chorus:

Watching the Angels

I remember why

Why can not the stars lead me home

Alone I stray

Towards old Gaia's end

For all my sorrow

Will soon be safe

In her hands

Bridge:

Still this is long and winding road

My path will not seem to end

But turning back I want to read face

Nothing but lies!

Lead: Kötterl

Verse 3:

Surrounded by pointing fingers

At the futility that I bear

I feel so unwelcome

Why would they even care

Suffering this self-loathing

I just did not want to be used

The coin gets flipped this one last time

Heads - I win, tails - you lose

Chorus:

Watching the Angels

I remember why

Why can not the stars lead me home

Alone I stray

Towards old Gaia's end

For all my sorrow

Will soon be safe

In her hands
