Lyrics and translation
Original
Where am I?
Where am
I?
Backed into a corner.
I know that I'm changing.
Once I was beauty, am I now the beast?
He would have me believe that he's the dark enlightenment, and he will hunt me down.
He's out for blood.
I am on the run now.
Out of swampy, this lizard demon and his sadistic companions.
Their neo-revolution, their annihilation.
They want the suffering, suffering of him and my. . .
Secrets, pulling on my heartstrings.
Wish that I were dreaming.
Shocking this is happening.
In these end times of dragons.
If you were to see me, would you turn away, away from me?
Faith and strength and questioning.
Faith and strength and questioning.
Backed into memories.
I'm going back decades now.
A different lover.
He taught me things.
Think less of crucifixion, more of resurrection.
A revelation.
He was for me.
Then we had Delta, a diamond lover.
When did greed suck me in to luxury?
The scale of dismantling, years in the making.
By these lizard kings, will we survive?
Secrets, weighing on my heartstrings.
Wish that I were dreaming.
Shocking this is happening.
Silver, written on my body.
Tearing through my skin.
Am I paying for those finer things?
In these end times of dragons.
If you were to see me, would you turn away, away from me?
Faith and strength and questioning.
Faith and strength and questioning.
Faith and strength and questioning.
Faith and strength and questioning
