X Japan - Art Of Life lyrics

Your rating:

Why do you live alone
  If you are sad
  I'll make you leave this life
  Are you white, blue or bloody red
  All I can see is drowning in cold grey sand

  The winds of time
  You knock me to the ground
  I'm dying of thirst
  I wanna run away
  I don't know how to set me free to live
  My mind cries out feeling pain

  I've been roaming to find myself
  How long have I been feeling endless hurt
  Falling down, rain flows into my heart
  In the pain I'm waiting for you
  Can't go back
  No place to go back to
  Life is lost, Flowers fall
  If it's all dreams
  Now wake me up
  If it's all real
  Just kill me

  I'm making the wall inside my heart
  I don't wanna let my emotions get out
  It scares me to look at the world
  Don't want to find myself lost in your eyes
  I tried to drown my past in grey
  I never wanna feel more pain
  Ran away from you without saying any words
  What I don't wanna lose is love

  Through my eyes
  Time goes by like tears
  My emotion's losing the color of life
  Kill my heart
  Release all my pain
  I'm shouting out loud
  Insanity takes hold over me

  Turning away from the wall
  Nothing I can see
  The scream deep inside
  reflecting another person in my heart
  He calls me from within
  "All existence you see before you
  must be wiped out :
  Dream, Reality, Memories,
  and Yourself"

  I begin to lose control of myself
  My lust is so blind, destroys my mind
  Nobody can stop my turning to madness
  No matter how you try to hold me in your heart
  Why do you wanna raise these walls
  I don't know the meaning of hatred
  My brain gets blown away hearing words of lies
  I only want to hold your love

  Stab the dolls filled with hate
  Wash yourself with their blood
  Drive into the raging current of time
  Swing your murderous weapon into the belly
  "the earth"
  Shout and start creating confusion
  Shed your blood for pleasure
  And what ? for love ?
  What am I supposed to do ?

  I believe in the madness called "Now"
  Past and future prison my heart
  Time is blind
  But I wanna trace my love
  on the wall of time, over pain in my heart
  Art of life
  Insane blade stabbing dreams
  Try to break all truth now
  But I can't heal this broken heart in pain
  Cannot start to live, Cannot end my life
  Keep on crying

  Close my eyes
  Time breathes I can hear
  All love and sadness
  melt in my heart

  Dry my tears
  Wipe my bloody face
  I wanna feel me living my life
  outside my walls

  You can't draw a picture of yesterday, so
  You're painting your heart with your blood
  You can't say "No"
  Only turning the wheel of time
  with a rope around your neck
  You build a wall of morality and take a breath
  from between the bricks
  You make up imaginary enemies and are chased by them
  You're trying to commit suicide
  You're satisfied with your prologue
  Now you're painting your first chapter black
  You are putting the scraps of life together
  and trying to make an asylum for yourself
  You're hitting a bell at the edge of the stage
  and
  You are trying to kill me

  I believe in the madness called "Now"
  Time goes flowing, breaking my heart
  Wanna live
  Can't let my heart kill myself
  Still I haven't found what I'm looking for
  Art of life
  I try to stop myself
  But my heart goes to destroy the truth
  Tell me why
  I want the meaning of my life
  Do I try to live, Do I try to love
  in my dream

  I'm breaking the wall inside my heart
  I just wanna let my emotions get out
  Nobody can stop
  I'm running to freedom
  No matter how you try to hold me in your world
  Like a doll carried by the flow of time
  I sacrificed the present moment for the future
  I was in chains of memory half-blinded
  Losing my heart, walking in the sea of dreams
  Close my eyes
  Rose breathes I can hear
  All love and sadness melt in my heart
  Dry my tears
  Wipe my bloody face
  I wanna feel me living my life
  outside my mind

  Dreams can make me mad
  I can't leave my dream
  I can't stop myself
  Don't know what I am
  What lies are truth ?
  What truths are lies ?

  I believe in the madness called "Now"
  Time goes flowing, breaking my heart
  Wanna to live
  Can't let my heart kill myself
  Still I haven't found what I'm looking for
  Art of life
  I try to stop myself
  But my heart goes to destroy the truth
  Tell me why
  I want the meaning of my life
  Do I try to live, Do I try to love

  Art of life
  An Eternal Bleeding heart
  You never wanna breathe your last
  Wanna live
  Can't let my heart kill myself
  Still I'm feeling for
  A Rose is breathing love
  in my life
