Lyrics & Translation
[English]
Times running up, tick tockAnd I am set on mainly a thread of life
Do you belive in Karma?
Let's live it up like Samsara
Someone might tell you life is deadly
But with us it's just one of many
Come on let us set the tone
Follow the rave let's get it on
Take me home to Samsara Samsara
Lose control like Samsara Samsara
Come join us we'll make it
Come join us we'll take it
Take me home to Samsara Samsara
Oh, come to Samsara Samsara
Oh, come to Samsara Samsara
Samsara
Don't waste your time, tick tock
Spend eternity on these wheels of life
Take a trip to Nirvana
Let's live it up like Samsara
Someone might tell you life is deadly
But with it is us it's just one of many
Come on let us set the tone
Follow the rave, let's get it on
Take me home to Samsara Samsara
Lose control like Samsara Samsara
Come join us we'll make it
Come join us we'll take it
Take me home to samsara samsara
Samsara
