True sorrow doesn't flirt with hope<br />
No matter how great it may be<br />
Hope rises twice as high<br />
But spare me these seekers, leave me in peace<br />
<br />
Down with them, down, down, down, down<br />
That which suffers, does never hope<br />
For they will no longer impress me<br />
With all of the solemnity<br />
And with the voice of my greatest days<br />
<br />
I call to you my hearth, glorious hope<br />
Wrapped in the cloak of illusions<br />
Come and sit beside me<br />
On the tripod of appeasement<br />
With a whip of scorpions<br />
<br />
I chased you if you wish me to believe that<br />
You have forgotten all the grief<br />
Which my short lived repentance caused you<br />
Well, then bring along with you the sublime procession<br />
Hold me up, I am fainting of all the virtues which I offended<br />
<br />
And their everlasting atonement's<br />
Yes, good people I order you to burn<br />
On a spade red hot from the fire<br />
And with a little yellow sugar for good measure<br />
To burn the duck of doubt<br />
<br />
With its vermouth lips<br />
Which in the melancholy struggle<br />
Between good and evil<br />
Shedding teardrops which are not heartfelt<br />
<br />
Creates everywhere, universal emptiness<br />
It is the best thing you can do<br />
Certainly, flesh and bon<br />
You have no reason to blush<br />
<br />
But listen to me, I don't invoke your understanding<br />
It would spit blood at the horror you<br />
'Cause better forget all about it<br />
And be consistent with yourselves<br />
There were no constraints there<br />
Whenever I wanted to kill, I killed
