...And into some semisolo - psychedelic things that I haven't  

transcribed.

             

Here's the lyrics / songflow :



Riff 1 x 2

Riff 1 x 2 (second guitar enters)



Fill 1  I am the world that hides

/Riff 1 the universal secret of all time

Fill 1  Destruction of the empty spaces

/Riff1  is my one and only crime



 a

 n      I've lived a thousand times

 d      I found out what it means to be believed

        The thoughts and images,

 s      The unborn child that never was conceived

 o

        When little worlds collide

 o      I'm trapped inside my embryonic cell

 n      And flashing memories

        are cast into the never-ending well

 u

 n      The name that scorns the face

 t      The child that never sees the cause of man

 i      The deathly darkness that belies

 l      the fate of those who never ran

 .

 .

 .

Riff 2 x...



Riff 2 Well I know it's hard for you to know the reason why

 .     And I know you'll understand more when it's time to die

 .

 .     Don't believe the live you have will be the only one

       You have to let your body sleep to let your soul in my heart

       (I want you to listen,I try to get through)



       Love has given life to you and now it's your concern

       Unseen eye of inner life will make your soul return



       Still I look but not to touch

       The seeds of life are sown

       Curtain of the future falls

       The secret stays unknown

Solo

w/Riff2

       Just remember love is life

       And hate is living death

       Treat your life for what it's worth

       And live for every breath



       Looking back I've lived and learned

       But now I'm wondering

       Here I wait and only guess

       What this next life will bring

       (Ha Ha !)
