Like a king he sits enthroned in his castle of stone Protected by all the walls he built around himself To stay save in warmth and out of danger His hopes and dreams, years have passed since they have gone Howling wind and the dread from the outside do not affect him Yet nothing in his fortress can save him from his anger Save yourself, crawl under your bed Cry for help, so long until they find you dead No one will ever hear you You arе in this all alone He stares out of thе windows of his towers The bitter travesty of a human being Drowning in loneliness, depressed with his only company With bloodshot eyes, wasting all his precious hours Wrath and hatred finally overthrew him What things to regret, oh there are so many Save yourself, crawl under your bed Cry for help, so long until they find you dead No one will ever hear you You are in this all alone Climb down your high walls and find your way out Terrors are everywhere on every path you're walking Escape the claustrophobia, flee your hideout Breathe the air, feel the sun's warmth, see what lies beyond The young man attempts to see what lies beyond Before losing himself in misery Wars and famine wear down what once was strong Thus he's seeking the caress of his high walls And there he lies thrashing, whimpering in pain The demons in his head are torturing his soul His attempts to distract himself, of course they are in vain Why must this existence be so cruel Old and shattered he watches the crimson sunset Hypnotized by its beauty he begins to wonder: Is this the meaning of life? Caged here in my castle of stone? He wants to venture outside but is too weak on his own Climb down your high walls and find your way out Terrors are everywhere on every path you're walking Escape the claustrophobia, flee your hideout Breathe the air, feel the sun's warmth, see what lies beyond As an old man he failed to see what lies beyond He lost himself in woe and misery Never to behold the blue and form a bond Thus he's doomed to rot withdrawn in the shadows
