[Verse 1]
Hold your tongue, you evil one
Don’t speak that loud, you’ll pay with blood
And swear by the book, but live in sin
Vintage aromas smells of blood
And in the name of God above
Failure is his own impotence

What to believe, we cannot see
Blind fully bending knees and told what to do
And pay by fate
Just as we thought we found the trust

The system has its rotten ones
A never ending circle bend

[Pre-Chorus]
A never ending circle bend

[Chorus]
Where do you go
Where do you enter
To beat the mind
And join the lonely sun
How many times do you remember
To see the light without a darkened cloud

[Verse 2]
We learn our kids to fall asleep
Have them believe the world is in peace
But outside, devils are awake
Rebuild your life, rebound in time
And wait your turn until it’s right
Turn villains into nothingness

The ba*tards made you fall asleep
Hypnosis by the telling screen
Are you awake or giving in

Changing is not a crime at all
More of a slowly wake-up call
And outside devils are awake

[Pre-Chorus]
Outside the devils are awake

[Chorus]
Where do you go
Where do you enter
To beat the mind
And join the lonely sun
How many times do you remember
To see the light without a darkened cloud

[Outro]
And on a night in December
You’ll be invited by the lonely sun
And by the time you will remember
To see the light without the darkened cloud
