Initiate by Haken Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Love and pain, engage your senses
And let them carve the way

[Pre-Chorus]
Give me focus (give me focus)
Sharpen my view (I initiate)

[Chorus 1]
Live here and now
And forever or never

[Verse 2]
I observe a world jarring in turmoil
A million people waging war at the hands of a god
And I can hear them crying
Cold fires blazing before me
An affliction fast consuming and fascinating me

[Pre-Chorus]
(Drifting deeper) You'll be the life and the death of me
(Into the unknown) I Initiate
[Chorus 2]
We'll make this dream last forever and ever
Tears will run dry from my ever wandering eye
But I'm prepared to stay 'til my dying day

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Bridge]
I'll see things you won't believe
In tomorrow's memories
I'll do things you can't conceive
(Open the floodgates
Form the colours and the shapes
Let there be a light
Initiate, all my senses are engaging)
There'll be no strings on me
(Open the floodgates
All the love and all the pain
Let there be a light
Initiate, all my senses are engaging)

[Outro]
(Distance stretches) Tell me, how does it feel to breathe?
(Further from home) I Initiate
I'm drifting deeper (Drifting deeper)
Into the unknown (Into)
