Citizen Zero Songtext
von Kamelot

I wait to surface above these bellowed growls
To sweep the shallows of utopia
I am the anchor and the rope around your feet
In a river deep I hold you down

I′ve come to stage your abdication
I'm the creation of your sins (embrace me)

When the hounds are out feeding me a lie
When the hounds are out
My sickness is released
When the cards are down for all the world to see
When the cards are down
And the strings are cut these mannequins will sleep

In the center of your greed infected wounds
I am a thorn of endless sorrow
Just one of thousands in your self-selected crown
A king to wallow in the mire
And roll in defeat

I will protect the incubation
I am your bottomless decease (embrace me)


When the hounds are out feeding me a lie
When the hounds are out
My sickness is released
When the cards are down for all the world to see
When the cards are down
And the strings are cut these mannequins will sleep

Pater noster
Invidia
Ira gula
Superbia acedia
Pater noster
Luxuria
Avaritia
Pater parce meis peccatis

All I see is mine to take
To have and to hold, to suffocate
And all I want is mine to keep
I want it all
So, father, forgive me

When the hounds are out feeding me a lie
When the hounds are out
My sickness is released
When the cards are down for all the world to see
When the cards are down
And the strings are cut these mannequins will sleep


(When the hounds are out feeding me a lie)
When the hounds are out
My sickness is released
When the cards are down for all the world to see
When the cards are down
And the strings are cut these mannequins will sleep
