Otherland

They rule the land
They´re in command
They hold all the strings in hand
They are invisible
Out of sight
They´ve designed
A secret place
To play their games
A world, they´re in control
Divine law
Divine law
Be aware
Now
Mind your steps
We are uninvited guests,
They may find and catch us
Don´t forget
Do what I say
Now connect
Don´t even ask
Until we´re out of it
Everything´s at highest stake
Come take a look
We are in
Take a breath
But don´t forget
It isn´t real
It isn´t true
An illusion
Nothing more
You´re a part of the game
You´re a slave to the grind
Oblivion
Is your key to the Otherland
You´re a part of the game
You´re cursed
You´re damned
By now you understand
You´re a part of the game
You´re a slave to the grind
Oblivion
You´re welcome to the Otherland
You´re a part of the game
You´re cursed
You´re damned
By now you understand
We get closer
There´s no better way
Lullaby Lane
Fade is on its way
The inner district
Is the place you need to know
It´s overwhelming
So let´s rest here for a while
Someone else appears
Silently
Watch me when I fall down
Everything seems real
Suddenly
Perfect simulation
Come take a look
Breathe it in
Artificial wonderlands
We are wandering around
Things shall vanish
They won´t last
Now I know
You understand
This world is not true
Nothing is real
Nothing at all
It´s bits and pieces
We walk through
You´re a part of the game...
You´re a part of the game
You´re a slave to the grind
Oblivion
You´ve reached the promised land
You´re a part of the game
You´re cursed
You´re damned
Welcome to the Otherland
Wait
I can feel things are not right
Do not breathe
Don´t look behind,
There´s someone else
The observer
A trick of light
A fading line
The entrance is gone
We can´t get out of it
We are slightly losing ground
Quick
It is time
We shall go
We better leave
And don´t come back,
No way to run
Nowhere to hide
I fear
We´re walking aimlessly
You´re a part of the game...
You´re a part of the game
You´re a slave to the grind
Oblivion
Welcome to the Otherland
You´re a part of the game
You´re cursed
You´re damned
You´ve reached
The promised land
You´ve crossed the line
You´ve reached the end
They´re in command
They hold all the strings in hand
They are invisible
Out of sight
They´ve designed
A secret place
To play their games
A world, they´re in control
Divine law
Divine law
Be aware
