Meinhard - (Mock)Turtle Lyrics

On and on
And even further
Around
I'm chasing down a dream

Seems a thousand years have passed
Looking for a thing to last
Reeling writhing
Time is fleeting

Striking hours with my bones
All alone
I'm crawling on
All my confidence has gone

There I collapse
All my dreams about to die
Tumbling down
I don't know
Who am I?

There I collapse
Tell me what's going on
Down to the ground
Everything has gone wrong

Flipped on my back
I withdraw in my shell
Won't someone please
Give me a hand

Flipped on my back
I withdraw in my shell
This kind of inertia
Sure feels like hell

In ambition and destruction
All my mind
I fade away
Swaying in derision

Praying how on earth I'd drift astray?
Black and cold
My pity soul
I hide inside myself and cry

Crawling
Seeking some salvation
All the world feels like a lie

There I collapse
And my soul has dropped dead
I'm breaking down
There is nothing ahead

There I collapse
Just a shell as I fall
Down to myself
I feel nothing at all

Flipped on my back
I withdraw in my shell
Won't someone please
Give me a hand

Flipped on my back
I withdraw in my shell
This kind of inertia
Sure feels like hell
