Between The Walls
Axel Rudi Pell · Between The Walls [1994]
Is it real or just a nightmare?
Lost behind the shadow of the night,
Revelation of a new world, I'll take you there.
Try to fight the walls from closin' in,
You can sense the reaper callin'.
Don't close your eyes or you'll be
Nowhere to go when you're fallin'.
Your times' comin' near,
There's nothing to fear.
Between the walls, between the walls,
In the line of fire, between the walls,
Takes you down to the wire.
Losing ground of life and fantasy
With no footsteps to follow.
The light above might be the only way,
'Cause darkness only brings you sorrow.
Repeat brige
Repeat chorus
