Human Anthem

歌詞

Pacing in a gilded cage Youthful lust turns to rage You turn your fear into a need Scratch your sores until they bleed Take solace in a stranger's bed You find no love but pain instead Within your mind an awful din The world grows smaller as the walls start closing in Stigmatic mentors love to grind Shards of hate into your mind As distances grow longer You leave familiar dreams behind So trenchant in your slow decay Deteriorating everyday The whispers in your head insist There's got to be another way Enamored of a golden cross Immerse yourself to conceal your loss An edifice with marble walls You'll find no peace within its halls Weeping icons with stony eyes In mute reprisal bear your lies A swelling void consumes your soul With each concession you dig yourself a deeper hole Stigmatic mentors love to grind Shards of hate into your mind As distances grow longer You leave familiar dreams behind So trenchant in your slow decay Deteriorating everyday The whispers in your head insist There's got to be another way
