Design Your Universe (”A New Age Dawns - Part VI”)

Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1: Simone Simons] We're blind and eager Avarice will set us back to blank Those who wager all will have to name a reason If you can't let go, you will end up empty handed If you can't control, you'll live your life in vain [Mark Jansen] Who decides about my time to come? Who is able to break through the circle of life and doom? [Pre-Chorus: Mark Jansen] Don't look back Keep on track to break the curse Take the chance Design your universe [Chorus: Simone Simons] We can't undo what we have done So show us now what we've become Confront us with our viciousness And our weakness We can't evade our destiny So show responsibility For we all surely have a sense Of our consciousness [Verse 2: Simone Simons] To take for taking's sake Will leave a path of loss and strain And endless breaking of faith can warrant acts of treason If you can't let go, you will end up empty handed If you can't control, you'll live your life in vain [Mark Jansen] Who decides about what's true or false? Who is able to sift through the treasures from the flukes? [Pre-Chorus: Mark Jansen] Don't look back Keep on track to break the curse Take the chance Design your universe [Chorus: Simone Simons] We can't undo what we have done So show us now what we've become Confront us with our viciousness And our weakness We can't evade our destiny So show responsibility For we all surely have a sense Of our consciousness [Verse 3: Simone Simons] The time has come, we have to see That total wisdom is in reach The time has come to color in the lines We must identify the signs [Bridge: Mark Jansen] So many people are full of hate While love and light are in their reach So many people will harm themselves But life can be so beautiful So many people will idolize While their own success is in their reach Don't forget you're able to Design your own universe Find your balance, sink into rumination Ipsum te reperies Potire mundorum Potire omnis mundi [Chorus: Simone Simons] We can't undo what we have done So show us now what we've become Confront us with our viciousness And our weakness We can't evade our destiny So show responsibility For we all surely have a sense Of our consciousness [Outro: Simone Simons] We can't undo... Show us now... Confront us with our weakness... Can't evade... Show us how... We have a sense...
