Watch the disillusionist making hinself disappear A last display of magic ere surrendering to fear Lost my faith in leaders and systems long ago Now it seems I'm losing faith in everything I know No more attempts to fill the empty pages
Don't ask me to explain my actions There's no masterplan No longer seek I satisfaction In these barren lands I asked so many whys: were given so few answers That I can't seem to sense any sense anymore
I cried out to the heavens above To find out if someone was waiting for me But they just wanted my gold, not my soul Though they could have it for free
Lying awake at night; should I keep up the fight Is madness cursed our divine Roll with the thunder; cry in the rain What would the lunatic find
O, apathy divine Forget it all in time No more darkness; no more light No more battles left to fight
Afraid to swim into the sea For the sea may drown Afraid to climb into the tree If lightning splits the crown I heard so many lies; that truth no longer matters Taking endless extraspins on my unmerry-go-round
Tried to play my life backwards To find hidden messages; telling me who I am But I only heard "Thou art human - thou art damned"
Lying awake at night; should I keep up the fight Is madness cursed our divine Roll with the thunder; cry in the rain What would the lunatic find
O, apathy divine Forget it all in time No more darkness; no more light No more battles left to fight
Used to flow with the waves But who can swim forever without drowning Used to strive for immortality But who needs eternity In misery
Lying awake at night; should I keep up the fight Is madness cursed our divine Roll with the thunder; cry in the rain What would the lunatic find
O, apathy divine Forget it all in time No more darkness; no more light No more battles left to fight
Should I rely on the arts To cast light upon us all Should I write a requiem For what none wants to recall At all
No I shall count these the last days of the sun And seek comfort in darkness 'Til my lifetread is spun
But play just one more for me lads; As they carry me out...
