Artifice Songtext
von Lysistrata

You saw me hide the real story
Trying to scratch some extra time
Used to run around the outside
Till the cold air pulled me down
You woke me before the fall
Got me singing twisted gospel
This is what I am to you
Under your wing I′m calling out

Straight into the wall
We're heading straight into the wall
I am worn
It′s so tedious to watch
If you'd let me
I'd ram my fists right through it all

But I am far too blind
I am far too blind


As I′ve filled your mind with ease
You′ve kept fuelling this disease
I would serve you if it killed me
I would give up on my needs
You're the Father, I′m the spawn
Feed off words by which I've sworn
You surround me, satisfied
Under your wing I′m calling

Straight into the wall
We're heading straight into the wall
I am worn
It′s so tedious to watch
If you'd let me
I'd ram my fists right through it all
Straight into the wall
We′re heading straight into the wall
I am worn
It′s so tedious to watch
If you'd let me
I′d ram my fists right through it all


But I am far too blind
I am far too blind
I am far too slow
You are far too full of sorrow
I am far too blind
Let the court decide
I am far too blind
That is my design
I am far too blind
You open up my eyes
You opened up the doors
But I stayed inside
You use this artifice
To keep me by your side
It keeps the pain away from me
But still it will survive
You use this artifice
To keep me by your side
It keeps the flame alive
I watch our worlds collide

I watch our worlds collide

I watch our worlds collide
I watch our worlds collide
I watch our worlds collide
I watch our worlds collide
I watch our worlds collide
I watch our worlds collide
I watch our worlds collide
I watch our worlds collide
