[Verse 1]

 1. Life          brings nothing for the sane
 2. While time    just seems to slip away

 1. Keep searching new days on the horizon
 2. I'm leaving no trace along the way

[Chorus]

 1. Seems like I'm falling deeper              deeper inside
 2. Feels like I'm growing weaker              much weaker each day

[Verse 2] (guitar plays the same thing from Verse 1)

1. The lights are fading day by day; no cure for the lost there's no
   ascending
2. When life could not become more pale; a new dawn is here, another day


[Chorus]

 1. Seems like I'm falling deeper              deeper inside
 2. Feels like I'm growing weaker              much weaker each day
