Glass Vest Songtext
von The Voynich Code

Fragile father. Deadly war machine

Under the cover of darkness I saw my vest reflect in your eyes
Broken and distressed, frozen to the bone, I came to follow the light

Despair of all malnourished souls raised to die, of the weak that knew no better
Demised, tyrannized, a soldier born to survive the madness of all malnourished souls raised to fight against an enemy that knew no weakness
Demised, tyrannized, I was solemnly born to survive

A child solemnly born to survive

Fragile father. War machine. Do I glorify you for my worthless existence?
Fragile father. War machine. Do you ever blame yourself?
Do you ever feel the despair of all malnourished souls raised to die, of the weak that knew no better?
Demised, tyrannized, a soldier born to survive the madness of all malnourished souls raised to fight against an enemy that knew no weakness

Lost and hopeless, I was solemnly born to survive


All I am, a soldier ready to give in. How much must I bleed and bleed to understand the war I live in
All I have, a glass vest tight to my chest. Eternal strive for forgiveness, whilst no future can erase the past

War had no mercy, not a single unaffected soul
I sorrowed the death of a battalion, oh they weeped as I held them in my hands
Eternally wounded and incapable of affection
I felt no fear, felt no shame, I felt nothing
I no more nourish life
I shall never bleed the same

I′m sorry, for I shall never bleed the same

It's naught but an inhumane fate, to carry the weight of a dying world
I fought for nothing, and lost everything. I carried the weight of a dying world
Fragile father. War machine. Do I glorify you for my worthless existence?
Fragile father. War machine. Do you ever blame yourself? Do you ever feel the despair?
