Tragedy of Perfection Songtext
von Mindspeak

Barren room
Eyes are shut
Stay inside to last
Got no name
Got no face
As anybody else
Locked in time
Black and white
Grieving for my past
Light is dim
I won′t join
This homogenous mass
Deprived of emotion

Constant "learning to live" echoes from the walls
I am caged within the tragedy of perfection
Constant pressure heating up with no remorse
I am caged within the tragedy of perfection


Looking down
Unbanning depths
The fall's a step away
Nighttime falls
Eternal black
Still eluding day
Stagnating pulse
No belief
Got no need to stay
Mind control
Prescribed ideal
I have lost my way
Deprived of emotion

Constant "learning to live" echoes from the walls
I am caged within the tragedy of perfection
Constant pressure heating up with no remorse
I am caged within the tragedy of perfection

Down and out
I feel the walls crumbling down
My head explodes
I need to get out now
Another senseless day
I cannot carry the weight
Anymore

I break down on the inside
My light begins to fade
In the autumn of my madness
Where the sky is turning grey

The last time all the colors of the fall
They blind me and they pierce while I crawl
Like your shadow stabbing your own back
Constant scales of nothing′s what I lack


At the end of my escapement
There's only way out
I'm staring into coldness
My cries in vain are drowned

The last time all the colors of the fall
They blind me and they pierce while I crawl
Like your shadow stabbing your own back
Constant scales of nothing′s what I lack

In the still of the night
I lay all hope aside
I′m the one
Who ceases dreams
