Trails Songtext

von Jordan Page

Trails

Power; naked in the dying light
Hours disappearing in the dark of night
& I hear laughter in another room
As a bride lays with her groom

Some kind of vicious daydream
Like Venom dripping from the jetstream
And humans as fragile as the dawn
Sing a requiem

Don't tell me everything's alright
You're streaming poison while we sleep at night
Don't tell me that there ain't no cure
You're killin' off the sick and the old and poor
Everybody's out to take control
But I won't go; no I won't go anymore

A revelation of chemistry and sky
Precipitations and empty battle cries
And years race without an answer
And we face violent cancers
And voices are broken in the requiem

Don't tell me everything's alright
I see your poison in the sky tonight
Don't tell me that there ain't no cure
You profit off the sick and the old and poor
Everybody's out to take control
But I won't go; no I won't go anymore

The will to power serves only the chosen who invoke it
Just as hunger baits the wolf but only innocence provokes it
Just beyond the secret prison and the hidden iron veil
You can see the past re-written as the setting sun
Illuminates the trails

Don't tell me everything's alright
I see your poison in the sky tonight
Don't tell me that there ain't no cure
You're victims are the sick and the old and poor
Everybody's out to take control
But I won't go; no I won't go anymore
