Under Spell Songtext
von Last Chance

Rain on pavement
Rusty sky, worn out voices getting by
Shuttered hopes behind closed doors
No one dreams here anymore
Lies like oil, on polished floors
Hands that feed behind closed doors
Golden thrones and towers high
Blind to tears and deaf to why
Footsteps fade as the sirens waken
Steel and stone where the soul′s forsaken
Footsteps fade and the cold grows deeper
City sleeps
But it's not a sleeper


Blackboard cracked, the lessons burn
Schools are cages, children learn
Silence, fear, obey, conserve
Taught to bow and call it earned
Bankers feed on borrowed time
Building empires out of crime
Empty promises, signed in fear
They cash the lies and disappear
Footsteps fade as the sirens waken
Steel and stone where the soul′s forsaken
Footsteps fade
And the cold grows deeper
City sleeps
But it's not a sleeper

Footsteps fade
Down forgotten stations
Glass and steel
In slow starvation
Footsteps fade
The dark comes crawling
This is the end and the end keeps calling

Courts wear blindfolds, stitched with gold
Laws are traded, bought and sold
Truth is censored, bought, revised
While puppets dance
The dance of lies
