Imperfect Harmonies

I can feel you far away
Your hesitation matching mine. 
Sadness left me far away
Your contemplation turned to wine 
An old man stares at me 
In mutual bizarre reverie 


Laugh at thy neighbor 
pretend you are sane, just the same 
you survived in vain
Laugh at thy neighbor 
pretend you are sane, just the same, 
you survived in vain 


Time is the father of existence 
Rhyme, the brother of resistance 
Broken down by men in their crazy minds 
Void is the mother of unknown distance 
Will, the sister of persistence 
Stripping under the elusive sky


The potion of devotion
Euphoric scriptures of the ocean 


Laugh at thy neighbor 
pretend you are sane, just the same 
you survived in vain


Time is the father of existence 
Rhyme, the brother of resistance 
Broken down by men in their crazy minds 
Void is the mother of unknown distance 
Will, the sister of persistence 
Stripping under the elusive sky


I felt so alone 
Till you came in my life 
and stopped the pain 
I felt so alone
Then you came into my life 
and poured the rain 
I feel so alone
Dressed in the dark silk clothing of your own disdain 
I feel so disowned
Since your children took up arms in your own name. 


God´s name´s different in every language
God´s name´s different in every language
Imposed illusion composed dissolution
God´s name´s different in every language
Imposed illusion composed dissolution
God´s name´s different in every language
