Substitutional World (Demo) Lyrics

You stared too long into the sun
Forgot the rest of the sky
Don't let the gambler lead you astray
The truth is slipping further awayTake a good look up to the sky
And tell me what do you see
Isn't there a sun amongst the clouds?
Then where else could it beSubstitutional world
Has become their home for all time
They will never taste the real
They live in a cage
Restricted by their own hands
They will never feel freeHave you ever been dazzled
By the bright morning light?
Have you ever heard the birds sing?
Have you ever tasted the gifts of Mother Earth?You've burnt all your precious wings
As you had to touch the sun
The ashes in your breath
Is the bitter taste of what you've doneSubstitutional world

Has become their home for all time
They will never taste the real
They live in a cage
Restricted by their own hands
They will never feel freeSubstitutional world
Has become their home for all time
They will never taste the real
They live in a cage
Restricted by their own hands
They will never feel freeThe higher your lucky star rises
The deeper you will fall
Who are you to impersonate God?
Who are you to know it all?As soon as you see tomorrow dawn
The future unfolds before your eyes
It's not a sweet dream you dreamed
It's a nightmare of the world's demiseYou stared too long into the sun
Forgot the rest of the sky
Don't let the gambler lead you astray
The truth is slipping further awayTake a good look up to the sky
And tell me what do you see
Isn't there a sun amongst the clouds?
Then where else could it beSubstitutional world
Has become their home for all time
They will never taste the real
They live in a cage
Restricted by their own hands
They will never feel freeSubstitutional world
Has become their home for all time
They will never taste the real
They live in a cage
Restricted by their own hands
They will never feel free
