Pictured Life Lyrics
Ooh! Dark meditation,
Your second sight can show my light
In a crystal bowl.
Sweet are the days, intoxication
Crow-black the nights caging my mind
Behind the wall
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
Into the rock to find the cream
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
Pictured life from yesterday
Ooh! Dark meditation,
Deep down inside a stream of light
Begins to flow.
Sweet are the days, intoxication
Crow-black the nights caging my mind
Behind the wall
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
Into the rock to find the cream
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
Pictured life from yesterday
Pictured life, pictured life
Pictured life from yesterday
Your second sight can show my light
In a crystal bowl.
Sweet are the days, intoxication
Crow-black the nights caging my mind
Behind the wall
Into the rock to find the cream
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
Pictured life from yesterday
Deep down inside a stream of light
Begins to flow.
Sweet are the days, intoxication
Crow-black the nights caging my mind
Behind the wall
Into the rock to find the cream
Into the rock through walls of red dreams
Pictured life from yesterday
Pictured life from yesterday

This song is the reason I forund this site. I have a feeling this song has something to do with communism and the Berlin Wall, but not entirely sure. If anyone has any ideas, I would love to hear them. Thanx.
I realy like this song but i don't have a clue what is it about. does anyone else know?
I think the actual lrics for the chorus are:

Until they run - through walls of red dreams Until they run - to find their dream Until they run - through walls of red dreams Pictured Life of yesterday
Until they run - through walls of red dreams Until they run - to find their dream Until they run - through walls of red dreams Pictured Life of yesterday
It's about living behind the Berlin wall, hoping for the time when it will no longer be there, and remebering the past when it wasn't. Since the Scorps were from Germany and the Berlin wall didn't come down until the 80s, it was frequent subject matter for them. Another song that comes to mind is Wind of Change

Ooh - Dark neditation. Your second sight can't show my life In a crystal ball.
Sweet Holidays Intoxication Crow-black the nights Caged in my mind Behind the wall.
Until they run, through walls of red dreams Until they run, to find their dream Until they run, through walls to break free Pictured Life from yesterday
Ooh - Dark meditation Deep down inside a stream of life Begins to flow.
Sweet holidays Intoxication Crow-black the nights Caged in my ind Behind the wall.
sorry - first meditation has a typo.

And the last Caged in my mind. Can't type this morning!
And the last Caged in my mind. Can't type this morning!
So to me, this is talking about ruminating about the past through meditation. Dark meditation. Dark meditation to me means he is seeing things through a distorted lens. Seeing things where he is condemning himself or blaming himself or through aggression turned inward. Not seeing himself as a good or worthy person. So because of this he gages his mind behind the wall. Think Pink Floyd. The guitar playing seems like the emotions. Into the rock - to means he is closing his mind or emotions to hide it from himself because it hurts so bad to feel that way. (the loneliness) Through walls of red dreams - to me means through his anger at himself. Then I think the meaning of dark meditation changes in the second part - to me it means that he starts to see the truth of himself being worthy of self love through those same walls of red dreams. It is a slight or subtle difference, but that is when the stream of light begins to flow. Into the meditation to find the cream seems to mean that there is good there and he is choosing to see it for what it is rather than through the distortion of self hatred or aggression turned inward.
