I've spent my whole life in this cave, between shades and reflections,
I've drawn my deeds amid these chains, my only childhood friends.
I've cried, I've screamed, but none can hear me,
the only truth they want to see is this blank rock plate.
Again.
The sun is rising and light beams within,
shadows are dancing composing the plot of my fate.
My fate.
On day these chains will fall to the ground,
then I will see how the world really is.
My brothers lay here like hollow cores,
their spotless mind never conceive the world beyond this walls.
I've tried, I've tried to tell 'em 'bout wonders out there,
as a way to uncover appearance and to believe what seems nonsense.
Again.
The sun is rising and light beams within,
shadows are dancing composing the plot of my fate.
My fate.
On day these chains will fall to the ground,
then I will see how the world really is.
Seeking and ripping a stone from the ground.
Slamming and crashing the steel on my wrists.
Hit after hit freedom draws near.
I get ahead crawling into the light and...
I can't believe, this cannot be real, my life's a blurred fabrication.
The scars on my arms tell of years of imposed negation.
Crawling, fleeing away, light burns my eyes, cleanses my soul,
I keep the truth but I don't mind, I am free but I'm blind to the world!
I've been asleep for so long,
daylight now scares my eyes.
It all seems so unclear,
can't tell what's wrong or real.
