Orphanage - Weltschmerz lyrics

rate me

You can't control year after year

Embrace oblivion with fear and weep and bleed and fall down

Paradise?

Perfect creation of mankind

Welcome to paradise!

Welcome to addiction, depression, corrosion, affliction

correction, repression, relapsing, collapsing

Into the abyss of progression

Together we create despair and guilt and anger

Justify?

We should justify our crimes

Ignore the shore of sympathy

I die

The weight of the world keeps you in fear

You confine yourself in agony

And condemn yourself to misery

More and more you turn into yourself

No one can prevent this tragedy:

Confined in yourself

Confined in pain

Confined in agony and shame

Condemned to misery

Prevent this tragedy!!!

Welcome to the perfect creations of the human race

Injustice, ignorance, prejudice, oppression, to name but a few

As an individual we just have to justify all crimes

And ignore our own conscience to fit perfectly in this society

The mourning after...

To oblivion we fade the morning after we fail to wake

My child...

To oblivion we fade the morning after we sail away

And the crowd weeps...
