Deception: II. Decadence Lyrics


I was told there is no reason to hate

I tried to understand but here nothing comes clear

Inside this deceitful humanity I feel alone and afraid

Nowhere to turn, nowhere to hide

[staring at this pale face thru the looking-glass

a score too difficult to play]

I know I’ll go away – from this maddin’ crowd

(‘cause) I feel you are fake – it’s all around

Sand runs thru your veins – (but) you don’t decline

I should secure my mind – inside my own

This struggle won’t leave me breathing

My mind keeps the (my) heart nailed up to these stones

A ghostship wreking in the middle of an ocean of fire

This world will not fulfill my thirst – I’m alone

I lived my days in anger I can’t no longer stand it

Everyone there hide behind a mask – like puppets on a stage

This void digs a grave in my soul

I Feel It’s time to bury myself alive

I know I must escape – from these hollow walls

My soul starts to ache – my spirit falls

I live my days in pain – I was betrayed

Lonely I’m not someone else – yet not myself

This struggle won’t leave me breathing

My mind keeps the (my) heart nailed up to these stones

A ghostship wreking in the middle of an ocean of fire

This world will not fulfill my thirst – I’m alone

This struggle won’t leave me breathing – I’m sure

My cell shrinks and starts to crush me

Poor soul drowned in this sea of sorrow – (torned apart)

Hope is lost but I see veiled rays of light

Finally this is the dawn of death

Here comes the hug of the dawn of death
