Of Gallows and Pyres |
| Watch all the fires burn in anguish |
| This city of terrors has numbed me to the last |
| There is no light in all this darkness |
| Even though the brightness radiates |
| All this longing for better days |
| So useless and pathetic, one more protesting pursuit |
| To the gallows, to the pyres |
| We march together in each other’s shoes |
| We are not meant to see ourselves |
| Self-degraded and disemboweled |
| Hanged from their towers |
| We flood the city with our tears |
| And as far as I remember |
| We never had a chance |
| To escape and to wither |
| In our self-chosen solitude |
| The gods of mercy in their villas |
| They laugh and they slander |
| In our long forgotten names |
| I rest my head |
| On your shoulders |
| Crowned with rusted wire |
| I’ll be your king and your slave |
| In our detention cells |
| We watch the days go by |
| Lost in our inner crypts |
| We persevere till we burn out |
| Till we burn out |
| And as far as I remember, we never had a chance |
| To escape and to wither in our self-chosen solitude |
| And as far as I remember, we never had a chance |
| To escape and to wither in our self-chosen solitude |
