The Convincer Songtext
von Valis Ablaze

They watched you from afar
But close enough to taste
They saw everything that you did
That put you in this place

This hollow sun has set
Beneath a falling star
I wonder what you are

They tried to let you go
Afraid to leave the world below
Just show me who you are
Survive a sense of pride
Whether it′s laugh or cry
It's showing what you are

Stage, rate, validate

Those wires should carry you
But they brought you to your knees
This fear is something new to you
A paradigm diseased


But could this be the new distraction?
To follow and obey
Endless we see that fear in your eyes
That there is no sweeter prize

One chance, one life
A helpless cry
For change, remove
The myth, the lie
You search, you seek
But cannot find
The buzz, the bite
It won′t be kind
What glitters doesn't always shine
That little part of you is mine


And here tonight
No need to hide
Whether it's laugh or cry
Just show me who you are
They tried to let you go
Afraid to leave the world below
Just show me who you are
Survive a sense of pride
Whether it′s laugh or cry
It′s showing what you are

Stage, rate, validate
