Castles (version 1) (demo) Songtext
von Colosseum II

I′m free to go
There's no more need to stay
Throw away the works of years
And return to Adam′s way

Retreat from shadow
To dappled glades and sun bleached joys
Livin' out on an island in the mind
Untouched by human flaws

I'm free to go
There′s nothing in my way
Just beyond the rainbow′s end
The gold all melts away

Return a hero
From distant lands of fight and fire
Escaping through the peace in my mind
And climb in higher and higher


I'm throwing out my ticket
To the outside world
Lost interest in the drama
Which is destined to unfold

I′m heading out for the shore
Of a friendly land
Where every grain of sand
Reaches out to shake me by the hand

I nearly made it that time
I nearly got away
I nearly made it that time
But I always have to stay

I nearly made it that time
I nearly got away
I nearly made it that time
But I always have to stay

As I walk through the forms of this valley of thought
Hurt takes place, and the visions unfold
Out past spinning in net space and infinite space
True mother Earth
A true mother Earth
Where the sweetness of the air tempers my feelings of despair


To the breeze gently whispering from the trees
And through the shimmering heads with everlasting -
All is revealed
All is revealed
All is revealed

I'm free to go
There′s nothing in my way
Just beyond the rainbow's end
The gold all melts away

Return a hero
From distant lands of fight and fire
Escaping through the peace in my mind
And climb in higher and higher

I′m throwing out my ticket
To the outside world
Lost interest in the drama
Which is destined to unfold

I'm heading out for the shores
Of a friendly land
Where every grain of sand
Reaches out to shake me by the hand

I nearly made it that time
I nearly got away
I nearly made it that time
But I always have to stay

I nearly made it that time
I nearly got away
I nearly made it that time
But I always have to stay
