Michael Kiske - Philistine City Lyrics
On our long uneasy wayNever there, never stayWe please ourselves, eat ourselvesIt gets us through the dayMaybe we should pray`cos we all are gonna payFor the arrows for othersThat we shoot up todayAll senses are numb,The candle grows coldIn questioning hoursAll answers are soldThe bitter taste on your tongueYou wash it down with some cheap funThe arrow cuts deeperThe cheating gets doneI don't know!Deep down within - we all feel the sinFrom darkness we raise - but it still hurts them tooWe all save our piece - just begging: oh, pleaseMake it go away - all thinking `bout those who freeze outhereIt's a myth when we say:Give loveIt's meaningless, meaninglessSounds like the croak of frogsWe preach out in the blueBut never change anything we doOur words have no weightAnd our wisdom won't doI don't believeIn your american dreamNo more, no wayIt's all not what it seemsWe always hear them prayThanking the lord for the money daysAnd the anger grows strongerIn those who failed the playI don't know!Deep down within - we all feel the sinFrom darkness we raise - but it still hurts them tooWe all save our piece - just begging: oh, pleaseMake it go away - all thinking `bout those who bleed outhereChanging colors, changing facades,Changing fashions, changing masquerades.New generations, oh! with whole new conceptions.So it won't go away that caricature of man.
