Samsara Lyrics
please would you tell me my friend
which direction is the way
because i'm lost, i'm confused
the reality we choose
is a long, long way from the dream
all you'll feel is pain and suffering
wading through samsara
yes but i've heard that before
from those teachers of dreams
but it's old and it's cold
i just can't feel it in my soul
am i damned to a life of extremes
all you'll feel is pain and suffering
wading through samsara
but i've looked to the east
and i've prayed in the west
what i knw, i've seen
you just couldn't imagine
where i've been
and i feel at this time
i just need to rest
and i'd like us to stay here
i would love us to stay here
would you let me stay here, please...
which direction is the way
because i'm lost, i'm confused
the reality we choose
is a long, long way from the dream
wading through samsara
from those teachers of dreams
but it's old and it's cold
i just can't feel it in my soul
am i damned to a life of extremes
wading through samsara
and i've prayed in the west
what i knw, i've seen
you just couldn't imagine
where i've been
and i feel at this time
i just need to rest
and i'd like us to stay here
i would love us to stay here
would you let me stay here, please...

Well, my understanding of the term "Samsara" is that it is the term in Hinduism and Buddhism for the cycle of death and rebirth (Which brings only pain until one can transcend it and escape rebirth)
Just glancing at the lyrics here it seems to be about someone who has studied and prayed in various religions and he's no longer accepting of the Eastern mystisism.
