lyrics

All of these words
Vibrating from beneath the ground
Where a serpent tongue hides
Ready to strike the conscience from backside
With bladeless knives
They tear you inside

Never white, neither black
The songs, they glide and sway
Never clear, neithere opaque
When everything's grey
Promising out loud
Poisonous needles that bite innocent minds
To find the vial, truth elixir
A cure to heal the blind

Deep inside reside the jesters
Floats the riddle, but who knows the answer?
Not me while it's the venom I spit
You swear, do you lie, do you really know it?

II we could only raise our hands to grab the sky
Then tear it appart to break the night
Our fingers stretched to hold the light
And keep it in to enlighten lies

This mask I wear, I forged it
This look in my face, I carved it
This is what remains, the dreams that die
Artificial smiles

Destroying the sole birthplace
To create a shameful illusion pit
A liquid lie now runs through the veins
And shades of cruelty appear to hide it
