Lyrics Perfection - Narziss

Perfection

The craving for higher perfection
seduces the obsessed
Into estrangement of body and soul
Their cold glance wanders over burial mounds!
No stone remains unturned
No piece of earth unexplored
No live stays sacrosanct — No live stays sacrosanct
Nothing that couldn’t be changed
At his beginning he doesn’t foresee
that his time will exceed
At his end he will understand
the only thing that counts is his own agony
What man begins: before his eyes it fades away
He’d like to be a perfect man and executor
But what remains is escape…
But what remains is escape…
All the beauty of the world, the world he lives in
means nothing compared to his creation
He applies his own rules to everyone
who doesn’t step aside, has to fall
No stone remains unturned
No piece of earth unexplored
No live stays sacrosanct — No live stays sacrosanct
Nothing that couldn’t be changed
The future of his children, a light-hearted game
played under the pretence of progress
CARELESSNESS AS THE RESULT OF LOSS OF FEELINGS
CARELESS HE STRIDES TOWARDS DESTRUCTION
What man begins: before his eyes it fades away
He’d like to be a perfect man and executor
But what remains is escape…
But what remains is escape…
