lyrics

WE ARE TWICE ARMED IF WE FIGHT WITH FAITH
WE ARE TWICE ARMED IF WE FIGHT WITH FAITH

SHADOWS ARE FLATTERING
I CANNOT SEE THE OUTSIDE
ALL AROUND FULL OF DUST
ALL AROUND FULL OF DUST
AND BLOOD FROM A REGICIDE

INSIDE THIS CAVE I’M SURROUNDED BY CHAINS
ALLEGORIES ON MY SOUL AND A MONKEY IN MY BRAIN
SADISM IS STRIVING TO LIFE
TOWARDS THINGS GO STRAIGHT

TELL ME THAT WE DESERVE TO CHECK HOW REALLY IS THE EARTH, PRISONERS ARE BLOCKED IN HELL WAITING FOR THE PELL MELL

TELL ME THAT WE DESERVE TO CHECK HOW REALLY IS THE EARTH, PRISONERS ARE BLOCKED IN HELL WAITING FOR THE PELL MELL

IS THE ONLY SERFDOM’S PATH

IGNORANCE IS SOMETHING WE CANNOT STAND
BREATHING TAKING AIR,
BREATHING TAKING AIR
TO SCREAM

I WON’T BE WEAK I’LL FIGHT FOR OUR RIGHTS
I’LL STARE AT THE DEATH LET ME SHOW YOU THE BRIGHT

I WON’T BE WEAK I’LL FIGHT FOR OUR RIGHTS
I’LL STARE AT THE DEATH LET ME SHOW YOU THE BRIGHT

NO

WE CANNOT CHOOSE BETWEEN ALL OR NOTHING
IN SPITE OF ALL MEANS NOTHING

REFLECTIONS OF HEDONISM BRINGING THEM UP TO THE SOIL FAKE TRAILS OF THE MEMORIES SHUFFLE OFF FROM OUR MORTAL COIL

TELL ME THAT WE DESERVE TO CHECK HOW REALLY IS THE EARTH, PRISONERS ARE BLOCKED IN HELL WAITING FOR THE PELL MELL

TELL ME THAT WE DESERVE TO CHECK HOW REALLY IS THE EARTH, PRISONERS ARE BLOCKED IN HELL WAITING FOR THE PELL MELL
IS THE ONLY SERFDOM’S PATH
