281-219 Lyrics

by Abed
Album: 281-219

Can't you hear these young souls cry to be redeemed

Of the lies you live upon, the ignorance you breed?

Speak the words that elevate the mind

Beyond the truths by which you are confined

Seek to progress above all

One day the barrier of rational will fall

All shall act by the rules you dictate

Line by line enslaved

For to those who sin to think

Await infernal flames

Through your own view you dare not look

No use for eyes while with a book

Without questioning once you can only go so far

As to doubt how “enlightened” you are

Speak the words that elevate the mind

Beyond the truths by which you are confined

Seek to progress above all

One day the barrier of rational will fall

Fall for I shall not embody your Prodigal Son

Am I to end my life by the vote of 281?

Could it be that we live nothing

But a shadow on the wall?

One day the barrier of rational will fall
