Ни к одной из запретных немых территорий Так не тянутся в поисках страшных историй. Здесь когда-то стояли дома и заводы А теперь лишь скелет обожженной природы.
Здесь не место живым, да и жизнь здесь другая Тени здесь правят бал нас дразня и играя За собою зовут в тишину недостроек Одиноких отчаянных пыльных героев.
Припев: Танец пылинок в свете Луны Детских картинок кем-то позабытые сны Брошенных кукол слепые глаза О прожитых жизнях тени могут все рассказать.
Счетчик Гейгера нервно нас предупреждает Об игре, в который человек проиграет И над нами смеется хоровод приведений На мосту после взрыва остались лишь тени
Те, кто жили когда-то на этой земле Стали прахом давно и исчезли во мгле Иногда лишь мелькают силуэты детей Запрещающий знак "Это зона теней"
Танец пылинок в лунных лучах, Детских картинок кем-то не распознанный страх Брошеных кукол слепые глаза О прожитых жизнях тени могут все рассказать.
Дождем из вен пишу немые руны На битых стеклах капли оседают С жадностью корозий не съедает Души моей нетронутые струны
Припев: Я вас не слышу и кричать не нужно Но из последних сил вы бьетесь лбами Об стену слез с безмолвными мольбами И Сон мой проклинаете натужно... Я вас не слышу и кричать не нужно Но из последних сил вы бьетесь бьетесь лбами Об стену слез с безмолвными мольбами И сон мой проклинаете натужно...
Мне ваших рук тепла не достается И взгляды мне спасенья не пророчат Немые руны скорописью строчат Мертвящие лучи ночного солнца
Грехом уныние издревле считали Те, кто писали книгу книг когда-то Уймите ваши лживые печали Моё желание свободы свято
В больших городах не место мечтам, Бороться с машиной ты вынужден сам. Никто не поможет и если ты слаб - То встань на колени, безропотный раб!
В больших городах не место свободе, Пружинка дрожит, пружинка на взводе. И если она от натуги порвётся - То ей в механизме замена найдётся.
Встал на колени, безропотный раб! Встал на колени, безропотный раб!
В больших городах не место доверью, Здесь каждый за мощною спрятался дверью. И в грешных суждениях суров и опасен, Лишь замкнутый мир механизмов прекрасен!
Замкнутый мир механизмов прекрасен! Замкнутый мир механизмов прекрасен!
В больших городах не место душе, Душа нарушает рамки веществ. Погрешность в работе, ошибка и сбой. Машина должна бороться с собой!
Машина должна бороться с собой! Машина должна бороться с собой!
Мы растим себе вторую кожу, И под нею трепещет новая плоть. По ночам нас греховные мысли тревожат, И за это нас не любит Господь.
Грешники, грешники, Кайтесь! И от идолов своих Отрекайтесь!
Полюбуйтесь на нас, мы ведь с вами похожи, И как вы, мы привыкли богам изменять. Наши души затянуты в чёрную кожу, И в безбожии нас так легко обвинять!
Грешники, грешники, Кайтесь! И от идолов своих Отрекайтесь!
Мы рабов и хозяев себе выбираем. Сознаваясь в грехах, на коленях стоим, И мы руки в мольбе к небесам простираем, Но господь всё простит лишь любимцам своим.
Грешники, грешники, Кайтесь! И от идолов своих Отрекайтесь!
Вы такие же точно, как мы, фетишисты! И молитвы читая с трудом по слогам, Вы ласкаете взглядом покровы Пречистой, Припадая губами к пронзённым ногам…
Грешники, грешники, Кайтесь! И от идолов своих Отрекайтесь!
Грешники, грешники, Кайтесь! И от идолов своих Отрекайтесь!
Жизнь это просто – раз и готово, Смерть это просто страшное слово.
Душу в руке так легко сжать, Так просто решить, кому умирать.
Мама за что, Мама за что, Мама за что меня ты убила?
Дочери Евы властвуют жизнью Им Богом дана великая сила Мама за что, Мама за что, Мама за что меня ты убила?
(Для чего сеять там, где сама нива усиливается погубить плод? Где множество средств против рождения? Где прежде рождения совершается убийство; так что ты блудницу не только удерживаешь в разврате, но еще делаешь убийцей?)
Зла я не видел, не слышал, не делал, Тихо пил соки зачавшего тела.
Почему не даешь мне увидеть свет дня? За какие грехи ненавидишь меня?
Дочери Евы властвуют жизнью Им Богом дана великая сила Мама за что, Мама за что, Мама за что меня ты убила?
(Не значит ли это, что ты ругаешься даром Божиим, встаешь против уставов Божественных, гоняешься, как за благословением, за тем, что есть проклятье, сокровищницу рождения делаешь сокровищницей убийства, женщину, сотворенную для деторождения, располагаешь к детоубийству?)
Теперь я от боли безмолвно кричу, Но нет тебе дела, что жить я хочу.
Тени устроят нам с тобой встречу, Но на вопрос я свой не отвечу.
Дочери Евы властвуют жизнью Им Богом дана великая сила Мама за что, Мама за что, Мама за что меня ты убила?
Ловят пальцами мечту. Погружаясь в пустоту... Отвергают мир живых Жители пространств иных. Аватары вместо лиц Из нулей и единиц.

Сними с меня лицо, как будто мраморную маску. Сними с меня лицо, коснись стальных костей с опаской. Оскал мой поцелуй своими тёплыми губами. Ты видишь, больше нет различий между нами.
ПРИПЕВ: Когда раздеты до костей, мы так похожи друг на друга Мне всё равно, кто я, кто ты, мой лучший друг или подруга
Сними с себя свой страх, как будто ржавые доспехи. Сними с себя свой страх, избавься от помехи. Меня не отключить словами «стоп» или «довольно». Плачь, я хочу понять, что значит слово «больно».
Росчерк черным по бумаге - Словно бритвою по вене, Черно-бело-красный флаг над головой - Как зов к измене. В небе черные кресты голубоглазой белой расы. В крематориях сжигают тонны порченого мяса.
Самые прекрасные цветы растут из грязи, Самые прекрасные люди - это мрази, Самые падшие женщины неприступны, Самые благие деяния преступны.
Четкий профиль, черный китель, Крыльев сталь средь туч сияет, Страх в глазах пятном кровавым На поверхность проступает. Злые черные собаки по ту сторону решетки, Злые черствые насмешки - Как удары мокрой плетки.
Самые прекрасные цветы растут из грязи, Самые прекрасные люди - это мрази, Самые падшие женщины неприступны, Самые благие деяния преступны.
Семь грехов, пороков смертных - Разноцветные уроды, Дети в желтых платьях Прячутся среди больной природы. Переломанные куклы в карты за столом играют, В ядовитом дыме тени свою жатву собирают.
Самые прекрасные цветы растут из грязи, Самые прекрасные люди - это мрази, Самые падшие женщины неприступны, Самые благие деяния преступны.
You′re a warrior fighting for your soul Taken from the world above and brought down the world below
You′re the son of his majesty Remember how it used to be In the light of day it′s easy to see Now it′s nighttime You had to leave
Separated from the king Now the water′s rushing and you keep trying to swim against the stream And it seems, like your not moving the many water′s gushing you gasp for air Almost drowning ears ringing, once upon a time we were singing One day the trees will stand and clap hands Stream of thought getting caught in the klipa, this place is just a shell, external Egos swell, that one′ll burn ya, we fell a long way down, that eternal frown′ll get you You look vexed it′s the dregs, the yetzer hara′s lurking Trying to make you forget we got a job to do You′re a priest and a prince and you can′t be moved
[Chorus:] You′re a warrior, fighting for your soul Taken from a world above, and brought down to a world below Re-united, re-united return the princess to the king, Re-united, re-united, she′s been taken for so long Re-united, re-united and then she′ll be filled with joy Re-united, re-united like the days of her youth
Descended to the pit What′s this feeling can′t get rid of it Soul sick Can′t seem to shake it When one retires at night weeping, joy will come in the morning You made my mountain stand strong
[Chorus]
Like and ancient memory Remember how it used to be Close your eyes and breath in That′s the scent of freedom Ringing across the sea Land of milk and honey One day will wake up from this dream and we′ll stop sleeping, Oh, yo, then we′ll see clearly

You′re a warrior fighting for your soul Taken from the world above and brought down the world below
You′re the son of his majesty Remember how it used to be In the light of day it′s easy to see Now it′s nighttime You had to leave
Separated from the king Now the water′s rushing and you keep trying to swim against the stream And it seems, like your not moving the many water′s gushing you gasp for air Almost drowning ears ringing, once upon a time we were singing One day the trees will stand and clap hands Stream of thought getting caught in the klipa, this place is just a shell, external Egos swell, that one′ll burn ya, we fell a long way down, that eternal frown′ll get you You look vexed it′s the dregs, the yetzer hara′s lurking Trying to make you forget we got a job to do You′re a priest and a prince and you can′t be moved
[Chorus:] You′re a warrior, fighting for your soul Taken from a world above, and brought down to a world below Re-united, re-united return the princess to the king, Re-united, re-united, she′s been taken for so long Re-united, re-united and then she′ll be filled with joy Re-united, re-united like the days of her youth
Descended to the pit What′s this feeling can′t get rid of it Soul sick Can′t seem to shake it When one retires at night weeping, joy will come in the morning You made my mountain stand strong
[Chorus]
Like and ancient memory Remember how it used to be Close your eyes and breath in That′s the scent of freedom Ringing across the sea Land of milk and honey One day will wake up from this dream and we′ll stop sleeping, Oh, yo, then we′ll see clearly
