The turn against
The world we know
Now our destiny
Will be decided
We have to send our brothers in arms
With pain in our heart
We watched them go
Will they return?
Truth is we had no choice
We′ll try to shield those we can
No better world
Let this end
Mothers cry
Our boys die
But we′ll stand ′till the end
Abandoned empathy
Is this how life ought to be
A grander theory
Morality replaced with greed
Vice become virtue
And virtue unwise
Material fortune
Our souls where the price
Within the sands of time is stored the data of our minds
Through the sands of time unfolds the tragedy of our kind
From the cross to the stake, to the trepanning chair
Another cup of poison is swallowed in despair
In the dead of night comes the memories
I recall the things that they did to me
The art of torture has its origin in hell
In our basic nature, the mastery handled well
We have been created in the image of infinite pain
The path that lies behind us denotes the future as it has been laid
To seek the truth
Is to swim in a sea of lies
To speak the truth
Is suicide in disguise
Cartesian reality
Truly caused by insanity
A cure for the disease
Remove what does not exist
In the dead of night they came for me
To remove the thoughts that they caused to be
Devoid of truth, we swallow our own lies.
And keep believing that this life is worth pursuing.
Thrown into a world where no light shall ever shine.
Condemned to a meaningless future, we live to die.
This life has been raped. now it′s too late.
Fuck this world for what it is.
We were mislead by faith.
Fuck this world for what it is, we were mislead by lies.
Everyday is another nail in the coffin of our molded lives.
Every prayer said in vain is one more breath closer to death.
