Nevermore - The Day You Built The Wall

She was born in 1617
She tasted like the wind always chasing her dreams
She was a tortured soul in pain
She whispered this dark refrain
You're not alone, so never be afraid
We are the cold and beautiful
You are the blue insane

Sometimes she moves the chairs downstairs, and runs away
Sometimes she makes herself known to those unawake

And the maiden spoke in stuttered streams
As if her soul was dead, she spoke of nothing

She is the infinite, she is the deranged
Her sorrow drips the blood of the unfortunate and stained
She was a shameless soul stranded in the rain
Her redemption never came, as she slowly went insane (insane)

Sometimes she whispers in my ear
There's nothing to be afraid of
Sometimes she moves the chairs downstairs

And the maiden spoke
In stuttered streams
As if her soul was gone
She spoke from the land beyond
And the maiden spoke to me

Sometimes she whispers in my ear
There's nothing to be afraid of
Sometimes she moves the chairs downstairs

And the maiden spoke
Inside my shattered dreams
As her soul was gone
She spoke of the land beyond
She was just another system-slave
Just another system-slave being led to the grave

Before you slip into unconsciousness
I'd like to have another kiss
Another flashing chance at bliss
Another kiss, another kiss

The days are bright and filled with pain
Enclose me in your gentle rain
The time you ran was too insane
We'll meet again, we'll meet again

Oh tell me where your freedom lies
The streets are fields that never die
Deliver me from reasons why
You'd rather cry, I'd rather fly

The crystal ship is being filled
A thousand girls, a thousand thrills
A million ways to spend your time
When we get back, I'll drop a line

Take me to the southern shore within emptiness unobstructed
My search for something more
Take me to a higher plane within emptiness unobstructed
Some things just can't be explained

Here we are again in the simple valley of deception
Where does it go, is it swimming against the flow
Or does no one ever know
Destiny, tranquility, validity of soul
And I will say once more
The world is still a spinning ball of confusion
That no one understands

Within the cold absolute, the cold brutal truth
There is a pained angel

Take me to the southern shore within emptiness unobstructed
My search for something more
Take me to a higher plane within emptiness unobstructed
Some things just can't be explained

So the river ends in this calamity we call heaven...
Is this perfection?
Are we spinning into the gray again?
And transforming into the insane?
And I will say once more
The world is still a spinning ball of confusion
That no one understands

Within the cold absolute, the cold brutal truth
There is a pained angel
He will shelter you from harm
And sing to you throughout your darkest hours

Take me to the southern shore within emptiness unobstructed
My search for something more
Take me to a higher plane within emptiness unobstructed
Some things just can't be explained

Take me to the southern shore within emptiness unobstructed
My search for something more
Take me to a higher plane within emptiness unobstructed
Some things just can't be explained

What grows upon this rock?
In its urgent sense of tragedy, time has stopped

Turn to the left, turn to the right
If you judge me for my faults
My soul searches for flight
Awake in my violent daydreams
I am lucid and torn
Asleep, dreaming in the netherworld
Obsessed and reborn

I feel the moonrise inside my head
I feel the consequence of everything you left unsaid
And now you're dead...
Is this soliloquy or psychosis
Or self-hypnosis

Burn to the right, turn to the left
If society won't accept you
You scream into the gray
Welcome to the underground
Welcome to your grave
Welcome to your beautiful mistake

I feel the moonrise inside my head
I feel the consequence of everything you left unsaid
And now we're dead...

Turn away from the light, turn into the right
If you judge me for my faults
My soul searches for flight
Welcome to the underground
Welcome to your grave
Welcome to your beautiful mistake

I feel the moonrise inside my head
I feel the consequence of everything you left unsaid
And now we're dead...

Destiny followed the sun and infinity bent
Into twilight's last slave, into the gray again
Until tomorrow, follow the sun
Until tomorrow, in your eyes

She comes to me in waves of shock until I'm drained
I accept her orders, I accept her pain
Until tomorrow, follow the sun
Until tomorrow, she comes in colors

She likes to play acid mind games
Within our faults and without blame
Until tomorrow, follow the sun
Until tomorrow, she comes in colors

She comes in colors and waves until I'm drained
She comes again

Until tomorrow, follow the sun
Until tomorrow, follow the sun
She comes
She comes in colors
She comes
She comes in colors

Driven by restrained desire
I want what I need (need)
Shacking as her sex takes hold (takes hold)
I've lost all control

Temptation
Temptation

Drowning in a sea of rage
I taste the embrace
Helpless as it steals my soul
I've lost all control

Temptation
It never lets me down
Temptation
One foot in the ground

We exist in a world where the fear of illusion is real
And we cling to the past to deny and confuse the ideal
Once inside, we can conceive and believe in a god we can't feel
Feel it
I can feel it
I can feel

Destined by a fate so cruel
And drugged to delight
Laughing as these lies unfold
I've lost all control

Temptation
It never lets me down
Temptation
One foot in the ground

Temptation
You satisfy my soul
Temptation
I've lost all control

Welcome to planet Earth
Tread your steps carefully
For the ground can twist and turn

Tread your steps carefully
For the ground may twist and turn
Choose your friends wisely
For just when you think you know someone
They could abandon you with scorn
Oh little one
Your mother will hold you in her arms
Your father will teach you his dignity and charm

Welcome to planet hate
To this emotion that I berate
Yet some people force me to feed my violent seed
What have we become?
The damage remains and cannot be undone
Oh little one
Your brother may stab you in the back and laugh
Your sister will love you unconditionally
As all life should be...

What have we become?
The damage remains and cannot be undone

Stare into the sky with newborn perfect eyes
Oh little one enjoy your time
There will be heartache there will be rain
And joy I can't explain
My precious little one, explore your time

Your mother will hold you in her arms and smile
Your father will teach you his dignity and charm

I am the black lord, I am a slave
Our world is dying, we are all naїve
I am the darkness, I am the grave
I am the voice you love to hate
Blame the world or blame yourself
Or just accept what cannot change

Your shameful burden burns into your skin
Suffer your sins

I am the black lord, I am a slave
You are the aftermath, the blue insane
You are the shamed, you are the drained
You cannot change the world
You cannot change
Blame the world or blame yourself
Or just accept what cannot change

Stack your stones with blood and bones
And build your wall of separation
Smash yourself and kill your friends
And build your wall of separation
The day you built the wall our world was dying
The day you built the wall you were the bastard
You little drone

The day you built the wall, our world was dying
The day you built the wall, you were the bastard

Blank in your selfish state and enraged
Never should one die (one die) that cannot decide the truth
Never should one cry (one cry), so suffer the children
The snakes arrive to assist and surround the stage
Black expressions is force-fed rage

Create and deny your subversive wings
The obsidian conspiracy is rising
Justify your shame
The obsidian conspiracy is rising

Regardless of the consequence
We drown inside our arrogance
We choose to bring our nameless
To this false place so shameless

Never should one die (one die) that never could see absolute
Never should one cry (one cry), let nothing destroy them
The blades align in indifference they feed the plague
This black agenda of hate is born of pain

Create and deny your subversive wings
The obsidian conspiracy is rising
Justify your shame
The obsidian conspiracy is rising

The coming waves and silent rage
Will storm the sea of glass
And in its wake all the burnt remains

Never should one die (one die) that cannot decide the truth
Never should one cry (one cry), so suffer the children
Create and deny your subversive wings
The obsidian conspiracy is rising
Justify your shame
The obsidian conspiracy is rising

The drowning sage can't feel the silence
The firestorm can never be heard
These are my last worlds

If murder is the purist's drug
And the needle is the new black
Take your steps carefully
Slip into the grey

The learning is still incompleted
No pressure
Only lessons
Serve you still

Who do you follow
In a world so hollow?
The last of the flesh has been picked away
And we decay

Tell me something pure
Tell me the truth
In fractured future dreams
I am the used

If murder is the purist's drug
And the needle is the new black
Take your steps carefully
Slip into the grey

The learning is still incompleted
No pressure
Only lessons
Serve you still

Who have you wasted
With your mistaste
And your velvet tongue

Who have you disgraced
And erased
With your lies

Tell me something pure
Tell me the truth
In fractured future dreams
I am the bruised

If murder is the purist's drug
And the needle is the new black
Take your steps carefully
Turn into the grey

The learning is still incompleted
No pressure
Only lessons
Shall serve you still

Where is there sorrow
Within tomorrow
That never dies

Tell me something pure
Tell me the truth
In fractured future dreams
I am the used

If murder is the purist's drug
And the needle is the new black
Take your steps carefully
Slip into the grey

The learning is still incompleted
No pressure
Only lessons
Shall serve you still

Eyes that shall never see
A life chosen not to be fulfilled
Fate does not choose a life before the hand of man
As the ants march you to your grave

Welcome to this violent station
The termination proclamation
All who enter here are killed
Prepare for death, forget will

The lines of right and wrong
Are blurred in the name of freedom
And those who cannot speak
Assume the positions and die
Feel the hook pulled by the system slave

Welcome to this violent station
The termination proclamation
All who enter here are killed
Prepare for death, forget will
Forget will

Dead eyes can never see the beauty of disorder
As the army ants march you to your grave

Welcome to this violent station
The termination proclamation
All who enter here are killed
Prepare for death, forget will

Thread the path of sin and sorrow and swim into red
If you slowly pull the noose
You choose to walk as if you're dead
Choke until you cannot feel
The pressure never ends

Without morals we wither
We might as well be gone
I believe in the other world
We cannot right our wrongs
If you lie to me, you slander me, this is why I hate you
Your petulant seed is a dying breed, this is why I hate you

Scream... into the grave

Unrelenting and unrepentant
Suffer guilt in shades
Choke until you cannot die
The lines refuse to bend

Without morals we wither
We might as well be gone
I believe in the other world
We cannot right our wrongs
If you lie to me, slander me
This is why I hate you
Your petulant seed is a dying breed
This why I hate you
If you lie to me, you slander me
This is why I hate you
You lie to me, you slander me
This is why I hate

Roll the dice, the plot device is the fatality in disguise
Choke until you cannot feel, the pressure never dies

Lie to me, slander me, this is why I hate you
Your petulant seed is a dying breed, this is why I hate you
You lie to me, you slander me, this is why I hate you
You lie to me, you slander me
This is why I hate

Rise, rise, rise
Rise, rise, rise
Rise, rise, rise

What do you want from this world
What do you want from this life
What do you want from this season of sorrow
That's waiting to swallow the light

Rise, rise from the poison
Rise, rise to your throne
Rise, rise from the poison
Rise, rise to your throne

Your poison throne is obscuring,
The lesson required before the burning

What do you want from humanity
Are we hollow and stained
Maybe we're all just useless
Or maybe we're all enslaved

Rise, rise from the poison
Rise, rise to your throne
Rise, rise from the poison
Rise, rise I see to your throne

Your poison throne is obscuring
The lesson required before the burning

Sit upon your poison throne you little drone
Make your plans and shift your dream
And smash them all to hell...

Rise, rise, rise
Rise, rise, rise
Rise, rise, rise

Your poison throne is obscuring
The lesson required before the burning

Sit upon your poison throne you little drone
Make your plans and shift your dreams
And smash them all to hell
