At The Gates - Within

(Music:Alf/Anders/At The Gates)(Lyrics:Tomas)
Feel the vibrating words of power
Magick the portal, language the key
As my journey within begins

Once again the gates they stand open before me
Time has come for me to climb the tree of life
And sail the seas I know so well

I search the winding mazes of my mind
And travel through thoughts left behind
As the waves they carry my ship into the air
A way out, but not back, I must find

I can't go on living this dead world
Crawling through this life I hate
I won't be thrown to the wolves again
I escape through magick as darkness it falls

But now the danger lurks within
Through my mind and beyond
My task is insane
And I don't know how my body will respond
But my ship is a strong one
It has carried me through storms worse than this

I can't go on living this dead world
Crawling through this life I hate

I hear music and it guides me
On my quest through infinity
A harbor appears within the mist
Its light house, a sunrise
For a soul starved of light

I try to focus my mind on it
But something is blocking the way
But one day, this city I'll reach

I now return to balance again
As my mind and body unites
And I close the temple of my mind
