Life - Sonata Arctica

Life is an illusion

Time a mere delusion

The cage is a creation

Of someone‘s imagination

If life makes you glow, then glow like a star

You’re the night, you’re the day

Own the sky, live in the clouds, defy gravity

A sign, an aberration, your road down to damnation

When a restroom illustration predicts the tribulation

Let the dreams give you hope, live in a dream

Let the music flow

With your eyes closed from the vast garden of stars

Sing one rhyme

Wait for the punch line

The notes are blind

But they know when you sing and

Smile

Life is better alive

It is a dumb thing to say

But the fact won’t wane away

Sing with someone today

When your team makes a game winning goal

Get ready to sing

Lalalalaa…

With a friend who’s right beside you

Lalalalaa…

With the friends beside you…

Time — every light on the blue sky night will beautify

Time — cast coins in the waterfall

Two coins, one for each eye

Time — the icy tingle of empty vapour on your hand

Time — a tiny crack’s a grand canyon in its command

Just one line

Sing with a feeling

Turn back time

Make all your stars align

The only thing you need, the vanity of happiness

When friends align

They sing in the key of…

Life

Life is better alive

It is a dumb thing to say

But the fact won’t wane away

Smile at someone today

If the wall smiles back you’re alive, and ready to

Sing

Life is better alive

It is a dumb thing to say

But the fact won’t wane away

Sing with someone today

When your team makes a game winning goal

Get ready to sing

Lalalalalalaaa…

With a friend who’s right beside you

Lalalalalalaaa…

With the friend beside you

Lalalalalalaaa…

It is a dumb thing to say

But the fact won’t wane away

Lalalalalalaaa…

Life is better alive

When your team makes a game winning goal

Get ready to sing

It is a dumb thing to say

But your life is better alive

Life is better alive…
