Shackled in darkness
- the forbidden portrait confined to it´s frame
Unbroken silence
- a total misfortune and shame
Raging obsession - this mask of oppression
it hides your aggression from view
This tearing suture renounces
the love he once knew
Your sacrifice this paradise of innocence
Trust the lie - you falsify the line of truth
You disguise your insolence
Don´t deny insanity - mediocrity
Save us from this masquerade of lies
Kings and fools die in ridicule (save us)
Save us from this masquerade of lies
A fallen fortress sees him beneath starless skies
Subsiding deeper - the final farewell in his eyes
Unspoken hero
- distrusted and trusted within surmise
Seizing intrusion to unveil his clever disguise
Your sacrifice this paradise of innocence
Trust the lie - you falsify the line of truth
Save us from this masquerade of lies
Kings and fools die in ridicule (save us)
Save us from this masquerade of lies
