"Verblendung" lyrics
Thrown into this world of filth
Subject to hostility
Temptation lurks the void
Of a lacerated soul
Mistrust and disarray
Growing stronger everyday
Destructive ego takes control
As the viciousness is creeping into the self-centred mind
Twisted creatures, poisoning
Inbred habits, disseminate
Virtues, morality, mortify
A hopeless world consumed with rivalry
Engraved deep inside, a mindset broadly accepted
Maladjusted, small doses of perversion
Vile influences obscuring the path to purity and reason
Animality takes over
Blinded by impurity, a slave to earthly fray
Cannot liberate myself, forever bound to these chains
Condemned to live a life of longing until I die
Developed deep inside, a process perceived as harmless
Protection of the self, absorbing the majority
Struggling to overcome the ones surrounding you
Yet bonded with your surroundings, a paradox that will poison your life
Brought about
By their
Own hands
Environment turns into inferno
Subject to hostility
Temptation lurks the void
Of a lacerated soul
Mistrust and disarray
Growing stronger everyday
Destructive ego takes control
As the viciousness is creeping into the self-centred mind
Twisted creatures, poisoning
Inbred habits, disseminate
Virtues, morality, mortify
A hopeless world consumed with rivalry
Engraved deep inside, a mindset broadly accepted
Maladjusted, small doses of perversion
Vile influences obscuring the path to purity and reason
Animality takes over
Blinded by impurity, a slave to earthly fray
Cannot liberate myself, forever bound to these chains
Condemned to live a life of longing until I die
Developed deep inside, a process perceived as harmless
Protection of the self, absorbing the majority
Struggling to overcome the ones surrounding you
Yet bonded with your surroundings, a paradox that will poison your life
Brought about
By their
Own hands
Environment turns into inferno
