My whole, lifetime I've been searching A place of eternal peace Where rivers are gently flowing Between miles of endless green fields A silent dream filled with light and life But this paradise is lost The path to it has disappeared again And my sky has no sun The clouds took it long ago And in these withered fields All its rivers dried out If we ever had a chance We lost it somehow And certain is my fate Nothing is sacred (Nothing is sacred anymore) No one is innocent (No one is innocent) Everything is lost (Everything is lost) And we all laud it Can't you hear my cry now That I've become the night itself In every raindrop Relentlessly falling down A silent dream without light or life Because paradise is lost The path to it has disappeared forever Nothing is sacred (Nothing is sacred anymore) No one is innocent (No one is innocent) Everything is lost (Everything is lost) And we all laud it I've come to terms with it This is my anthem to the darkside Let me fall, wash me away With the black tide Nothing is sacred (Nothing is sacred anymore) No one is innocent (No one is innocent) Everything is lost (Everything is lost) And we all are dead
