Mirrorthrone - Dismay lyrics

rate me

Once a man built a large and grotesque wall<br />

Of cracked stones, dead hopes and bruised limbs.<br />

He wanted it to protect himself against a deep growl<br />

Of a storm carrying remorse and memories of sins.<br />

Below the faded sun, he spent his entire lifetime<br />

In hiding from any truth, in masking his crime<br />

In an attempt to castrate his already sexless flesh, <br />

Blindly fleeing from any recollection of thresh.<br />

<br />

Thus this pathetic living corpse was joined<br />

By other insipid souls in this work for them purloined.<br />

And generations massively adopted the habit<br />

Instituted by this mad man drowning in his vomit.<br />

Gathered they were, each saying no to life<br />

With such ignorance, overabundant and rife, <br />

But still firmly meaning what they could only ignore<br />

Chained themselves under a sky to love and implore.<br />

<br />

But what can he, who has not pierced eyes, do<br />

When he discovers such a wretched view:<br />

Impotent armies of degenerated and naked warriors<br />

Brandishing a banner where it is with gold thread knitted "ERROR".<br />

<br />

There were so many of them at the bottom of the wall<br />

That even in one hundred years you couldn't count them all<br />

Though weak, their number was doing that one man alone<br />

Couldn't make them fall and destroy their throne.<br />

<br />

Giving up all phantasms of grandeur, there is no boiling war to be declared; <br />

Just frozen and wild fancies, orgasmic visions of excruciated traitors immolated.<br />

Glaring at nothing but my own rage, feeding from my overwhelming hate<br />

Without melancholy but fury, I collapse in my engrieved fate.<br />

Of the two available roads one leads to starvation, and the other one to prostitution.<br />

The first one embraced me, as I choose death and self-abnegation.<br />

Now the memories of their distorted faces is slowly fading away, <br />

Even refusing to follow me as I sink into merciless dismay.
