lyrics

Innocent fool you will stumble and fall,
This rope’s too thin,
Your neck’s so fragile.
A slight blow and all is gone,
A slight blow and nothingness comes.

Where is all this leading me,
These cosy dreams of luxury,
So comfortable in my shoes,
Death shall reign in the end.
Once the door is closed,
And I’m left alone,
I still feel this breeze,
Bringing in cold,
Death shall reign in the end.

Too much fear, too many lies,
Too much anger, too many shams,
Too many subtle enemies, hiding aside,
Too heavy is the weight of life.

Defiant was the man who thought gods could be defied,
And Death kept in chains, no human had to die.
The gap between Humanity and Deity was reduced to ash.
Pushing his arrogance up the mountain,
His shame would keep rolling down again,
Starting over and over is man’s burden,
What would you now give to swallow your pride,
And let the rock tear apart your flesh.

Too much fear, too many lies,
Too much anger, too many shams,
Too many subtle enemies, hiding aside,
Too heavy is the weight of life.

He took pleasure in killing,
For deceitful and avaricious,
Was his twisted brain.
To maintain his rank,
He disrespected all rules of men.
Craftier than the craftiest,
He even deceived the Gods,
Throwing Death in jail.
Fool is the one who thought he could overrule the Gods,
Cleverness is not enough to pretend,
To be a peer of Gods…
