Songtext von 27 Years

You were the prophet in a foreign land You were the idol to the dumb and blind You were a legend and their sanctuary You took no prisoners on your last crusade And you've been searching all your life You've been falling from the edge And you've been searching for the truth You've been searching on and on Twenty-seven years -the hunger and the pain Drowned in emptiness-the loss of innocence Twenty-seven years- desperation everywhere Twenty- seven years - your age of consequences Twenty-seven You gave the masses just what they want You took their money and their credit-cards But you couldn’t buy their souls and tears So you killed yourself and faded away And you've been searching all your life You've been falling from the edge And you've been searching for the truth You've been searching on and on Twenty-seven years - the hunger and the pain Drowned in emptiness- the loss of innocence Twenty - seven years - desperation everywhere Twenty - seven years - your age of consequences
