Metafiction Songtext

Devoid of life...

What do you see when you take a look behind the curtain?
Is there something more? Something more than meets the eye?
A mockery of common sense and human judgement
That lies beneath the empty words of daily headlines

And if you had the choice would you try to reason and change the world
Or would you rather choose to light the match and watch it burn
(And would you change the world or would you watch it burn?)


Underneath the searing skies empty souls devoid of life

We′re overdosed by the constant noise forced fed
Through media and we're looking for more
If we′re threatened by loss we give up our freedom
In this kingdom of lies question everything - you have to question everything

How quickly does life seem to change for us
If we take a step forward through the smokescreen and witness the decay
An empty gaze and vacant minds that were slowly poisoned by ill defined criteria

Underneath the searing skies there's nothing left to find
Underneath the searing skies empty souls devoid of life
