A Minor Setback

Close the gates and don't return
Let the buildings crumble
Let the shopping malls burn
Nothing can grow here, nothing can live
I am the last one in this city
To walk this salted earth
I think it's eerily pretty
How we once were the first
To cultivate this land
To settle down in this valley
Now it's dead and unforgiving
We've made a very sick land
One small step for man, but a jump back in time for mankind
Look away, look away, we're doing just fine
"It's a minor setback, we'll get back on our feet"
Well that was 30 years ago, accept your defeat

Shame And The Senses

You can turn around
You can walk away
But I know you can hear me
Just a few words to say
Cover your ears
Cover your eyes
But you should have
Covered your mouth in time
Just a few words
A score to settle
A bridge to burn
A lesson learned
You call this life?
You call this life?
Try to cover your shame
Your hands are too small
To cover your face
Once and for all
For everyone you held so dear
For everyone who took your lies
As an accurate depiction of what went on in your life
For everyone that you chose to fail
For every time that you chose to bail
Cover your ears
Cover your eyes
Bbut you should have
Covered your mouth in time

I've kept calm and passive
And I've stayed miles away from the likes of you
Cause I have no time to argue
I have no time to argue for your truth or for you
Cause I've kept calm and I stood back
I've watched you preach to all your friends
Until there's no one left
There's no one left to watch your back
When your god attacks
We'll fuel the fire that burns your body
With the book that leads your life
We'll set you free
We'll set you free from this life

Blueprints Of A Stoic
02:35

I spent my days with old wisdom
I've been hanging on to disproven truth
With which to stab you
Over and over and over again
What is this?
Where are the ruins you promised us (you promised us)?
I have the blueprints of a stoic
Burned at the stakes
He looked a bit like you
A heretic for christs sake
Don't go knocking on the door of a burning house
If you wish to see another day
I heard Mona Lisa say you're a traitor
And then she smiled and looked away
Please refrain yourself from dying alone
Dress up nice and go out on your own
Drink too much but most of all don't behave
