Afraidance Songtext
von Vengeur

Running through a forest of flailing limbs
More than a thousand broken legs
Populate these sticky floors
Should you decide to wait for more
Don′t cry for help once lying flat in piss

One wouldn't tell
We′ve lost our lives
To false promises of bliss

Allegiants folded blind
In various degrees of leisure
Ingest noise in angel dust
A safe haven that won't last
And there's no paradise to find

Let′s indulge in a pursuit
Of the ultimate pleasure
Right down the road, don′t swerve
Don't swerve
Ride to the very end


You won′t hide your scent
Exposed nerves
Will make you tremble from the pain
Of the discarded days

And as we are,
You will be too
You will forever know your place
Under the glare and steam of golden rains
But for tonight, forget and dance

I just can't really remember
If I ever were supposed to stand here
I don′t get why others stare
As if integrity is rare
These probing rays
They show their teeth
Concealing daggers in embrace

Such hostile atmosphere
A bitter glance that could erase my face
They'll have
Another
Chance


Please snap my neck
And put my soul into a cage
Its tentacles will tear your trachea
Let′s take the shot
My mind's a wreck
A complex subject to perfect

The depraved regimen is gentle
On those who show respect
For what they've got
From bestial maws
That scrape your fragile muscle off

Their forked tongues
Cave in, erect
Convulse like maimed insects

As we decay
In shattered dusk
The fiery sky bleeds out on us
A burning polymer cascade
Of searing fatigue
Our weakness spills
With asymmetrical delay
Defect of lucid mental cruise

Dispersed cults cannot refute
That their dreams are made of slaves
And as they wish
You will become
It′s only normal to efface

Puddles of brilliant entrails
Duplicate suggestive storefronts
Vile strobe of truthless signboards
A futile race
Downwards

One wrong move
And you′re gone

Just for tonight
For it won't last
Forget and dance

Why would you want to have a face?
In lethal situations
One should be thinking fast
Display of inner regulation
Calls for spiritual obligations

You won′t think twice
Before you plunge

At last
Express to final destination
A tailored ride for us
Unluckily, too fast

I can't see any salvation
Only pointless admiration

Bedimmed, diluted shadows
Of people drowning in canine exhalations
