I never thought of you a friend On whom my trust depends You are a snake in all the tales Where men went wrong I never swallowed the lies Or need them by my side I can anticipate the darkness in the light We never benefit from silence It drags us down And now our bearings are unknown We'll never understand S of violence Dragging us down And I run forever From the glory and the praise And I run forever Till the end of my days As we retrace where we went wrong Gazed with wayward eyes for far too long And now I look deep inside To find words for the wise We must eliminate the veil to see the face And now we live in frightened times With hearts ablaze As we navigate this never-ending maze We never benefit from silence It drags us down And now our bearings are unknown We'll never understand S of violence Dragging us down And I run forever From the glory and the praise And I run forever Till the end of my days As we retrace where we went wrong Gazed with wayward eyes for far too long My coffin dripping black With pitch sealed by the sun Dead flowers grip the outside Weighing me down by the ton The wisdom laid down At my feet I will never receive I'm pulled down by the body Of my own machinery
