Nefarium - An Old Black Cage lyrics
rate meEnclosed in an old black cage suspended<br />
In the middle of a sterile mind, <br />
Far and distorted, thousands, one on top on the other, <br />
We are (slowly) suffering under the weight of our fellow beings.<br />
<br />
Wet from the never-ending rain of lies from him, <br />
Whom from time immemorial has promised; <br />
On the iron, the rust of our tears is mixed<br />
<br />
With the bitter-sweet and dark blood.<br />
In the darkness, the strong wind of hope is mistaken<br />
For the sighs of him<br />
Who is closer to us, <br />
<br />
An Old Black Cage<br />
In which iron screeches on the bones, [x2]<br />
<br />
The cage moves by the smallest contractions (of the muscles), <br />
While the bodies are mingled with their own pain<br />
And in the bliss of those<br />
Who are finally getting closer to the truth<br />
<br />
And by freeing a space give yet another breath, <br />
Falling in the deep pit of knowledge.<br />
After every instant, he goes<br />
Back to the starting point, <br />
<br />
Trying to perceive his destiny, <br />
Imploring hope to show, <br />
Through the old bars of a tired world, <br />
The universal focal point (to which everyone is hanging).<br />
<br />
The eyes are raised once again<br />
To look for the end of the thick rope<br />
Which sold it's origins to credulity and submission.<br />
An old black cage in which iron screeches on the bones, <br />
<br />
Those who try to run away<br />
Between the bars are crushed like food<br />
Between the jaws of a beast
