Borders
Protect us from the outer life
Fences
Keep them out while we sleep sound
Ceilings
Guard our paths to the gold mines
Extorting
Those on quest for a better life
Complicit
With murderers on the other side
Denying
The truth is all we are doing now
We are
Frightened by the lowest tides
Riding
Silent waves of bitter lies
Stealing
Future ours and theirs alike
All we have now will vanish somehow one day
Closing our eyes
For our own comfort
Afraid to recognize
Where our future may come from

Seven Men
12:24
|

/ The Ruler Whispers /
In the middle of the darkness
In the silence of the night
The chaos is waiting
To emerge with daylight
In the night you have power
You think you can hide from me
After sunrise I will find you
You will never be free
You can hide in a forest
You can run for your life
Like the tide of the ocean
You'll be back in no time
If you ask me for mercy
Because you know you're my slave
I'll be generous owner
I'll let you dig your own grave
You are just seven men
I am millions, all the same
For you it is fight for life
For me just a little game
/ The Observer Comments /
Seven men are sleeping by the fire
They spend their nights in the fear of dawn
Every day living in the circle
Trying to find the exit door
/ The Masses Sing /
They left the cities, entered forests
The seven men who tried to flee
They thought there is something to learn
Something to feel something to see
The seven men left the others behind
Hoping to find the truth in self
They looked deep and long inside
And found something they shouldn't understand
Why would they think there is more than masses
We gave them all that there can be
The seven men broke the law
We cannot let them walk away free
There is no freedom in isolation
It unlock things deep inside
All we hide behind the veils
All that screams beyond the smile
The only way is annihilation
Or submission to collective mind
Beneath the layers of society
Live animals we try to hide
/ The Seven Men Lament /
We are given by our mothers chance to flourish
empty pages and an uncorrupted sight
What is inside lost all meaning to all others
Yet it's they who shape the purpose of our lives
There is nature full of forests full of flowers
Full of wisdom not known to any of our kind
We are hiding behind walls, inside towers
We will never know the true meaning of live
These are the darkest times
We are stumbling blindly through the forests of our dreams
Our hopes have all vanished now
They are chasing us wildly, we have nothing but our fears
/ The Historian Judges /
Many read the words of wisdom
On the wall of the ancient dome
Yet they never understood
Why the men chose martyrdom

Melt Your Crown
09:51
|
|||
Created in the grace of our darkest days
Speeding up the pace of this pointless race
Made of stone and time, they cement our lives
But if we burn them down, you may realize
So we
Burn them down
To the ground
You can stay in your safe place all the night
Lock all the doors shut the windows, close your eyes
You tore the bridges, took the stones, build the palace of your own, melted our axes and our plows so you can wear your worthless crown
But you know, we will never give up the fight
And we will
Take your crown
And melt it down
Into a plow
---
It's up to us
We have crossed the widest rivers
We have reached the farthest shores
To mine the stones for you walls
But it's time for all to enjoy
The achievements of yesterday
There is no promise of next life
The next life is too far away, when you say
This is how you did it always
That is how you do it now
We did not build this place for nothing
It must survive the test of time
The beauty of our tradition
Is beyond any words you say
We control your minds and bodies
Because it's always been this way
But we never lie
We say what we see with our eyes
We see you prey on our grief, anger, surprise
Yet we wait for our time
And we wait
for the sun
to shine
But it never shines
To the depth of the burrows where we hide
From serving to enrich your own lives
From which we are about to rise
Because if there is no tomorrow
Then there is no today
If there's no future to fear for
No force
stands in
our way
