Time crawls
By unseen before our eyes
Inside we draw
Out the sins of empty lives
Of everything we fail to see
Of everything we fail to be
It’s fools who draw
Water from a poisoned well
Who lack the blood
To burn throughout their empty shells
Of everything they fail to see
Of everything they fail to be
And at a moment’s chance
They synchronize their void-like glance
Into the deepness of this well they’rе still to understand
And as the rabble drinks
Wе look for life independently
The pathos of our distance guides our steps so patiently
All these rivers that run deep
Are streams that pull us to our knees
In poisoned waters we can’t see
An exit flowing to the sea
Now!
Speak your truth be free!
Like the Adder’s poisonous spree
Stop writhing awkwardly
Hiding in the trees
(Do not) listen to the words
A language so absurd
That lingers from the tongues
Of unenlightened curs
All these rivers that run deep
Are streams that pull us to our knees
In poisoned waters we can’t see
An exit flowing to the sea
Do they see the signs
That constantly make their marks
In between our eyes?
All these silent cries
That never know the reasons why
They compromise
Now their moment’s left astray
And their spirits castaway
The constant movements in their minds
Towards the knowledge that betrays
We’re language falsified
A decadence inside
A nihilistic lie
A monumental blight
(With eyes) and yet so blind
No values redefined
A passivity of life
Forever satisfied
Their virtue’s in silence
Fear: all coward’s guidance
The drive that makes them slaves
The reason they’re astray
(With snake) eyes we see the mold
Reality unfolds
In truths so manifold
Perceptions hereto untold
(In per)-spectivism’s light
New views from on high
We take on our new roles
To trans-valuate our lives
No more moments left astray
Nor their spirits castaway
The constant movements in their minds
With new knowledge that designs
They now see the signs
That constantly make their marks
In between our eyes
All these silent cries
That finally know the reasons why
They compromised
Break free from this trial
That convinces you to swallow
All potential found inside
Don’t let it run its course within your veins
And extirpate it with this new-found knowledge
Change…
All these rivers that run deep
Beneath the well whose waters we can finally calmly drink
Are streams that carried off those false imaginations
The twilight of all idols and false supplications
