The Asylum Lyrics by Edguy

Rocket Ride

2006

Crying in the still of the night
A yearning for shelter
Silence kissing your wounds
Soothing your pain
Darkness - and what do they know
'Bout losing direction
Clutch at a straw

Cherish the hope
To make it finally home
Home
Home
Home
Home

Home

You long to be see-through
So nobody can tell
Whenever they made you
Bleed your pride away

Now you're driven by a one-track mind
Initiating you
Splendid flowers
Blossom from the wounds
The stronger the poison
The sweeter smells the bloom

Don't you try to stand your ground
Cause you're only coming home

To the heart of fire
You're home - found asylum
In a world where the broken dance
On shards of glass
I see fire - ruins and fire - and fire
In a world where the broken dance
With shattered dreams

It's burning inside you
This emotional hell
And you keep on smiling
Upon the icy tiles

A stream of fire
To sweep the fears away
Seems like forever
Too long you've had to wait
Plunge in darkness
For wicked harmony

Little angel thrown away
Sure'll be back another day

To the heart of fire
You're home - found asylum
In a world where the broken dance
On shards of glass
I see fire - ruins and fire - and fire
In a world where the broken dance
With shattered dreams

Now see the cornered children
I see them off the beaten track
Embracing and crying
Freezing and dying
Concealed humiliation
Now let them dance

Liberation cruelty-free
Dance towards the gallows-tree

Bogyman was sought and found
Bogyman has found a home

In the heart of fire
He's found the asylum
In a world where the broken dance
On shards of glass
Fire - ruins and fire - and fire
In a world where the broken dance
With shattered dreams

Heart of fire
You're home - found asylum
In a world where the broken dance
On shards of glass
I see fire - ruins and fire - and fire
In a world where the broken dance
With shattered dreams
