Catharsis Panoptikon Lyrics

For you who choose bondage, the world is a cage
Paralyzed under their gaze
These scraps of self, they're not enough
But they're all that I could steal
It's easier for you - don't you f*cking feel
Do you
Subjugate our nightmares, bend them to their ends
And they offer to share the dividends?
A place in the shadow of the great guillotine.

And are you blessed in these days of lifelessness?
I'm choking on the rim of your righteousness
Scouring through the bars at worlds we'll never know
Lost in the city, the beaten crowds
Those around you gagged and bound
Smothered
Caught
Gasping
in Panoptikon
Defined by confines, condemned to these lives
No secret's safe from their eyes But what goes on in our minds goes on in your hearts
Denied all creation, destruction is our bitter art
We'll slip through the cracks, we're not afraid
For every bent knee too shall break
We'll dance in the shadow of the great guillotine
That does it's rythmic work
On each and every unbowed head
One
by one
by one.

Judgement
Are you too the sacred and the clean?
One day we'll rise to mount the skies
And tear your god's towers down.
Freedom
In the death rows of this machine
No freedom here, living in fear
Until every wheel stops turning
Until every channel goes dead
Until every light goes out
Until every city is burning
Then we'll see some freedom!
