Rudra - Sad But True lyrics

rate me

You have to die to see the light?<br />

Is the weight of the world on you? <br />

Constantly seeking to change the world <br />

But never to change yourself <br />

<br />

You are a pain here but expecting pleasure hereafter? <br />

You may be blessed but are you a blessing? <br />

<br />

The desperate need for a savior <br />

Is for the fool and the weak <br />

In the dungeon you have fallen <br />

Now you are blind to reason <br />

Heaven is a promise, so is Hell <br />

An experience is always welcome <br />

Verses distorted, your faith transported <br />

To a realm where perception fails <br />

<br />

[chorus]<br />

Can't you see the state you're in? <br />

Desires replaced by the desire for Kingdom come <br />

A comforting transient holy slavery <br />

This is your fate, it is sad but true! <br />

<br />

You are the human sheep sent to the slaughterhouse <br />

"Forfeit your sanity to gain the Kingdom" <br />

The clergy is waiting with a book in hand <br />

Speaking in tongues to drown your screams <br />

You're in pain but you are paralyzed <br />

by the dogmas of 2 thousand years <br />

Your right to question raped and gagged <br />

To doubt is to sin and a place in Hades! <br />

<br />

[chorus]<br />

<br />

Freedom forgotten <br />

Lost in the Herd <br />

Your silent tears are seen <br />

Your soul yearns for relief <br />

<br />

[solo - kannan]<br />

<br />

Throw away those notions, which were taught <br />

By the heaven mongers and the blind fools <br />

Be like the wise and not otherwise <br />

Let the mission be wisdom! <br />

<br />

[chorus]<br />

<br />

[solo - selvam]
