desire little kids are caught in the crossfire people conflate the want to possess with sense of belonging, want to impress out in the jungle out on the streets people struggling to stay on their feet as they stumble walls abrasive concrete jungle urban natives time constantly craving the lime living your prime it's so sour ageing three years by the hour morning news crimes of hate small decisions carry weight pillars crumble heroes fall concrete jungle swallows all

with the scenery passing by I have to change my point of view laying down, see the planets fly so move over Satan, here I'm coming through the light refracting telescope shows craters on the moon as Ganymede bears our hope in orbit, witches on their brooms Galileo Galilei through his window frame looked at the stars saw the milky way Galileo Galilei went against the faith waged a holy war and almost burned at the stake with the earth no longer steady at the center of the universe stand before the inquisition disprove the truth you've seen reversed as the world turns heliocentric set the stage up for astronomy are the pillars of creation nothing more than just a fantasy Galileo Galilei through his window frame looked at the stars saw the milky way Galileo Galilei went against the faith waged a holy war and almost burned at the stake Galileo Galilei through his window frame looked at the stars saw the milky way Galileo Galilei went against the faith waged a holy war and almost burned at the stake paa pa paa paa paa pa pa paa ga ga ga Galileo (Galileo Galilei) ga ga ga Galileo (Galileo Galilei)

take me in your time machine to places where I've never been the further we go the less we will know a dying world of suffering that's crumbling under foolish kings but buildings of gold stood no weight they could hold we set out on an epic quest to rid the world of all unrest we struck an accord I gave you my sword a pantheon of worship past an ancient scroll, a charm to cast to cull the weak minded and leave their souls branded shed away the curse of the living to become yet another false god a twisted curse, a maiden fair a promise kept, an oath to share we sat round the table and weaved up the fables the silent words that leave no sound but crimson leaves upon the ground the prophecy foretold a new king on the throne bled away the flesh they were given as they found you were naught but a fraud past the dragon's ascent when the hour drew near one last fleeting look back at all the things we held dear at the peak of the summit where the earth and sky meet as we braced for the battle and held strong our beliefs but as we laid in trenches and we challenged the beast you were conveniently missing to partake in the feast now the lights in the castle and all the stars in the sky have faded to nothing as she says her goodbyes leave behind all those dreams and ambitions what a clown to have taken the throne in your mind you're fulfilling your vision while your hounds rip the skin off our bones to the blind all your sins are forgiven claim your crown now you're king of the fools

have you seen the dogs of war stand atop that crested hill coming down, a thunderous plague we run for shelter, steel our will the dogs of war seize the day, and claim it all without cause hear the whistle, heed the call tearing through what lies before them desecrating holy ground leaving none within their wake none but these ferocious hounds the dogs of war giants that have learnt to fly spoil the land for years to come dragons that command the skies what they think, it doesn't matter serve their head up on a platter blood and dirt, the gold they hoard they feed the wallet of their lord addicts of the holy water preach their faith, there is no other harvest children, ripe for slaughter milk the sons and sell the daughters for the people's satisfaction consequences of their actions never practice what they preach their happiness stays out of reach march themselves into the grave existence is nothing but torture all the people they won't save money talks, soldiers of fortune

the scene before us, mud and grey lit up by flames and clear as day the biting cold, our frozen breaths what lingers here, the scent of death all around us our brethren die eyes focused forward we hear their cries can't you see it's suicidal passing through the woods at night but as of now, it's pure survival stray the path and pay the price we sought to revive our greatness gone when evil arrived, we opened the door it indulged in our primal fears we pushed out brothers, far and near abandon all hope desert the fight for here before us unbudging might can't you see it's suicidal passing through the woods at night but as of now, it's pure survival stray the path and pay the price fighting 'til the last drop even though we know they sacrificed us just as we were told by our messiah never did we question how the fool somehow got us here now everything we knew is swallowed by fire and on my mother's grave I swear that we look just the same still here we are ordered to kill each other I'll die a slave, a martyr not an unmarked stone, that's soon forgot while Ozymandias memory fades out buried in the sand fighting 'til the last drop even though we know they sacrificed us just as we were told by our messiah never did we question how the fool somehow got us here now everything we knew is swallowed by fire

the day I learnt about the bomb a ripple in the plastic sea a tower on a field of rooks that could distort reality my mother took me to the shrine to glance upon the sacred metal within the sheltered concrete cave a garden full of poison petals the dream snatchers have come for me they want to take my liberty the howling of a distant scream a spreading silence filled with tension slipping through the growing cracks a peace without renewed extension the dust that took my brother's lungs the smatter of the scorching rain I peeked out from my hiding spot the city, now a sea of flames the dream snatchers they will survive they left us here to burn alive we struggled to confront the weight of everything that's come to pass remembering the better days without this choking toxic gas the crops that perished on the fields the sun that ripped with burning claws this frightful power that we wielded left us blind to our own flaws dream snatchers what can we do when noone's left but just us two the dream snatchers are we the same to close our eyes and shift the blame

tasked with finding new resources fresh supplies are running dry all the conflict sours the taste without new blood our race will die we study all the ancient rites and go against the flow of fate technology will bear our hopes we gamble with our lives at stake blood transfusion pore diffusion soul dilution execution nuclear fusion false conclusions mass confusion disillusion one degree below extinction struggling to express concern the planet treated like a playground drop our toys, the world will burn facing now the consequences the trees are grey, the soil is dead humans cannot feed us more exterminate them, cut their heads air pollution truth occlusion life intrusion persecution no solution prostitution resolution revolution

take me to the edges of the world take me into the embrace of that girl take me where the flowers have no name la la la la la la la la la wake me from this dream I call my home wake me from this fondness that I've grown wake me before I burst out into flames la la la la la la la la la the days when all our future feelings were decided and places where celestial beings coincided the ways I thought beginnings reached their end only to blossom out again and in your gaze I chose to stay lately I've been waiting for your calls faintly picture us, forevermore maybe from the moment we became la la la la la la la la la the days when all our future feelings were decided and places where celestial beings coincided the ways I thought beginnings reached their end only to blossom out again and in your gaze I chose to stay the days when all our future feelings were decided and places where celestial beings coincided the ways I thought beginnings reached their end only to blossom out again and in your gaze I chose to stay the days when all our future feelings were decided and places where celestial beings coincided the ways I thought beginnings reached their end only to blossom out again and in your gaze I chose to stay

nada ya nada en ríos helados nada ya vive en forma pescado hombres de plata deshidratados tesoro de oro desenterrado ay ay ay ay ay ay nadie persigue los involucrados quien llorará por los maltratados almas oscuras manos amarradas ya nadie recuerda tu significado ay ay ay ay ay ay todo termina en tratos secretos otras verdades viven tus sujetos sueltan los perros a ver que se escapen sangre de héroes las muertes salvajes ay ay ay ay ay ay

go wait inside my love don't look outside it's just the planes above dropping bombs over our heads come closer, hold my hand it will be alright think of the flower fields and I'll see you there

[Instrumental]

must we stay here in the shadows once the earth's core has gone cold? feel our souls forget their luster shrivel up, covered in mold through the hills, where rivers red flow where tomorrow will unfold in the sunset, lost the day glow and in time, we'll too grow old so step outside step outside, into the sunlight and the sunlight is so bright that our light skin turns to dust must we stay here in the shadows can I claim this treasure boldly? with the courage I may muster for this chest made out of gold
