Lyrics A Stubborn Soul - The Duskfall

A Stubborn Soul

Short were the days of the wise man, went up the hill and never came back
A stubborn soul will fight anything, a restless soul won’t just settle in
Left home in search for a paradise, found a place for parasites,
like leaches they sucked him dry
Numbed the pain, with bottles of whiskey… He’d become all empty
On that day, he went up that hill, couldn’t go on by remaining still
Gave him some and took some more, made him their slave, became a whore
There was no other choice for it to end, just to look at the bullet with a grin
So won’t you stand and hail this institution, this is the enticement,
your one last solution
These were the days of the wise man, went up the hill and stumbled back
Lost it all and everything, such a will to fly, they lured him in
On that day, he went up that hill, couldn’t go on by remaining still
Gave him some and took some more, made him their slave, became a whore
There was no other choice for it to end, just to look at the bullet with a grin
So won’t you stand and hail this institution, this is the enticement,
your one last solution
You can fight against but these walls will stand
For every brick you take you’ll fight a wicked man
