Broken Sphere - pandemonium

Now the sordid seasons encompass the lands

Bringing dark despair into all hearts

The forebears have never accepted their fate

But hung on tight to their dreams instead…

…shattered like broken mirrors!

Reflecting futility

Hopeless confusion

Ordinary passion won’t last an eternity

How long have you followed your dreams?

The trail is getting colder

And the goal still no closer

Futile searching in vain

Hopeless we all become

Shadows play in front of my eyes

I can’t see the path that was chosen, that I was to follow

Now what’s to become of me?

Despite the precautions of past generations, we’re running out of hand

How to avoid possible lamentations

When nothing goes just as you planned?

When the past was present

And the future was dark

All hoped for a better day

Change would come and change would be

Engraved inside our souls and hearts…

…there will be no brighter day!

All will evolve, the world will change

But the failure of one will still live on

Is all then truly hopeless and lost?

A step from moving onwards

We are barred by illusions

Living inside a sphere

Of what we think might be

I must break these chains of delusions off me

To look up and see that all

Is not all it was made out to be

Striking out to break preconceptions

But all cannot always adhere

Messages lost in the rivers of lifetimes

Flowing away to somewhere

Iridescent blue neon lights can’t disguise

Human displays of broken hope

Dragging the mind through cold waters of time

This illusion will not lose its grip

Now where is the other way?

A shadow of oblivion

In the back of your mind

I must break these chains of delusions off me

To look up and see that all

Is not all it was made out to be

Now I see that I could create a superior reality

But striving and changing and twisting and bending

The world changes only for me

All should consider all possible options

Break stride and think again

Drawing on strength from the will to make different

The situation at hand

Can the future be drawn in another direction

If we try to alter its course?

Or is all predetermined and since long decided

By something that we cannot touch?

In the answer lies questions in multiple layers

And one can still bring it to fall

All will evolve, the world will change

But the failure of one will still live on
