Original lyrics

EN
My anguish told you A persistent lie The parasitic circuits that you push by wheel Were spoken to me every time And like a charlatan You counterfeit the vessels through flesh and time These packs we keep in secret Are drinking from a well that was cured by drought My torment adores you When my strings are tied Out of compulsion I must decimate The sapless embryonic miles And like a charlatan You counterfeit the vessels through flesh and time These packs we keep in secret Are drinking from a well that was cured by drought My lives are burrowed voices Twisted by the handle so they won't let go These limbs are idle creatures Extensions of a spirit that has no control My heart is trapped inside And I refuse to accept this throne My night’s unfolding Reads like a page of test results This sterile codex Is missing all my life's resolve And like a charlatan You counterfeit the vessels through flesh and time These packs we keep in secret Are drinking from a well that was cured by drought
