THANK YOU for your attention and amazing archive !

Fill 2 :
This part 3 x
And into riff 3a :
Riff 3b:
...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 !)
