Don't believe your lying eyes

And not once consider what we have done

Delight in your surrender

Have you not heard of the greater good?

Use this yearning to breathe free

And use this time astride the grave

Believe your lying eyes

This is the truth we tell ourselves

Don't believe your lying eyes

Into thе light we will drag them all

Delight in your surrеnder

We'll all be scourged for the greater good

Use this yearning to breathe free

And use this time astride the grave

Believe your lying eyes

As we wipe away the horizon

Tabula Rasa

Nero fiddled while Rome burned

Tabula Rasa

This would be his final sin

Tabula Rasa

But in every face, there is Nero

Tabula Rasa

When all paths lead to Rome

Tabula Rasa

All paths lead to Rome

Tabula Rasa

But a masochist will learn

To never give in, never desert, never shy

From the blood, and the bullets, and the shit

In the dirt, and in the mire

This ground is holy

Drag them

Drag them

Drag them

Drag them all

We tie the rope, which will hang us

In wretched self-complacency

Entombed in the cosmic quarry

In pursuit of the sun

Like shallow prey, for the jackals

This is the final chance to utter the final sin

In the flood or by the fire

No one will be the wiser
