An Eye for Optical Theory (From "The Draughtsman's Contract")

歌詞

I believe in divinity, a world that balances on a needle Burn the books, so no one sees the proof Follow the trace, you should know it's my Way to show you how I feel You make a fist while others sink in the sand Vote for my... Bad conscience and open wounds To stop bleeding To end my suffering Don't leave me here to dig my own grave Dig my own grave You, know it's an eye for an eye So don't you betray your own kingdom We, drown in a hope of a lie While you wash your filthy hands in a wishing well Celebrate in a hall of fame A riddle with no rhythm String your bow don't let the arrow miss Consider me as a friend for Life Condemning for no reason Hand on heart Who do you really fear? Vote for my... Bad conscience and open wounds... You, know it's an eye for an eye... I cry, for those with no identity I bleed, for those who cry for me Drink this wine and raise your glass for him You, know its an eye for an eye... So don't you betray your own kingdom We, drown in a hope of a lie While you wash your filthy hands in a wishing well
