Art of Mankind
New life blocks the power of light
Independent of wants and needs
The makers force, its only vitality
Nothing but his second shadow
That building ain`t got no shelter
Not destroyed but built as a ruin
And all those mirrors have just been made,
to reflect unable to look through
(Inro)
That Prison you call freedom
How the hell shall you know
You`re full of hatred and pain
Your need for love has been silenced
(Bridge)
Only visual senses reach the outside
All these impressions are getting blocked
Created lifeless forced to live
Life reflects on that human shell
(Chorus 1)
Hatred and fear have been thrown on me
The creator never had to stand
He would break down and die pathetically
Die pathetically left all …. alone
(Chorus 2)
I cannot tell if I´d rather die dead or alive, cannot tell
Cannot tell if I`d rather die dead or alive,
I could tell you that hope is the best feeling, cannot tell
Cannot tell if I´d rather die dead or alive
(2 Times)
