Noumena - Marionettes

Truth in redemption's pyre Scorched out, no longer in life Awaiting these souls on fire In life, there's no brighter side Once hateful as all its slaves More fertile than its enemies Impossible to control But still a reason for us to live on Keep away from scarecrows dreams Dismay feeds all these marionettes See the truth and manipulation With lies they breed all these marionettes Truth over denial inside a thought bleaker than life Lustre of all that remains is the day when we all are the same Adapted to black, still on way down Beyond redemption in a state stronger than hate Truth over all dreams Deceit to feed the desolated breed The point of all that's been done Is the moment we all are gathered as one
