lyrics

They lead the donkeys by the tails
Smells of rain and bloody nails
Enliven feasts with human slaughter
Easy tranquility
Highly praised order
Nothing beyond these borders
We twist our heads like in foreign lands In a portrait of death
a man screams to be blessed
Shards of glass lying on the floor Doors always open
But my hearts always cold

I’m crawling under the skin of a calf
I bid myself the best hand I can
Brutal indifference lodging my brain
Salty indecision bursting my veins
They come, they go, they trot, they glance
They run, they hide, they trot, they dance
I sold my soul way too easily I sold my soul way too easily
They fed the monkeys to their graves,
Polluted landscapes laced the haze
Liquid light flood the heaven with it’s rays
Lively minds
People of their times
Just another gas mine
Behind the mask
The tears turn to laughter
Smiles often shaken by conflicting disaster
How often at night
When the heavens are bright
Do you oddly lament the passing of time
The passing of time
