Crimson Blade

Hidden for a thousand years a blade within a stone awaits the Saviour
Longing for a noble hand that would proclaim a time of liberation
For a country mesmerized under a spell of lies and self-deception
A new light restores to life a people's souls 'n hearts, and their behavior

Shreds of a whole, shreds of a life
Fragments of broken souls reconstitute themselves
A Crimson Blade from ancient times
Mends back the dream of a collective unity

Once again, yet again, we are both many and one
Once again, yet again we see our goal with many eyes
And as one, we move on to choose the path of our new life
Like a blade that cuts the ropes that held our wings

First they told us what to need then what we had to do to get our payout
Artificial needs to fully keep under control imagination
Bread and circuses of lies created static rails for us to move on
Prefab trains of thought along a laid down path concealed the way to get out

Shreds of a life, shreds of a whole
Fragments of broken souls reconstitute themselves
A broken blade from ancient times
Brings back the dream of a collective unity

Once again, yet again, we are both many and one
Once again, yet again we see our goal with many eyes
And as one, we move on to choose the path of our new life
Like a blade that cuts the ropes that held our wings

Told us what we had to do
What to think what to believe
Told us what we had to think
What was good and what was right
What to mind what to forget
What to be how to behave
How to lead a normal life
How to lead -- a normal death

Then, a new light emerges
From an ancient blade
Buried in our souls
No Saviour but ourselves
Wielding crimson blades
Springing from our souls

Once again, yet again, we are both many and one
Once again, yet again we see our goals with many eyes
And as one, we move on to choose the paths of our new lives
With a blade that with its crimson light
gives us back our true birthright:
cuts the ropes that jailed our minds and wings!
