Testo Brahmin's Lament

Testo Brahmin's Lament

You´ve been losing yourself within these liquid silk skies

Where all those dead roads have lead you, when the wishing well run dry

And still you chase strange idols of a long-gone mislead youth

Stared deep in god´s blank image, but couldn´t find the whole truth

You´ll die again to rise and then

You´ll see it all depends on what you´ll do


Hear all the Brahmins sing in an endless refrain that soon you´ll be born again

And far beyond the shadows of another world you´ll see it all at a glance

Go break that faceless mirror and end to live in pain


While trotting down your way towards a cold and lonely death
Where their voices won´t fade away, but keep on echoing through your aching head

And still you just won´t listen, there ain´t no use to tell

You had a thousand years to learn, but still can´t face your true self


You´ll die again to rise and then

You´ll see it all depends on what you´ll do


Hear all the Brahmins sing in an endless refrain that soon you´ll be born again

And far beyond the shadows of another world you´ll see it all at a glance

Go break that faceless mirror and end to live in pain


Yes soon you´ll live again

And be damned wear this like a stain

Yes soon you´ll live it again

And you may finally breakthrough


Hear all the Brahmins sing in an endless refrain that soon you´ll be born again

And far beyond the shadows of another world you´ll see it all at a glance

Go break that faceless mirror and end to live in pain

Within the distant mumbling of the priest recalls the voice of the wind

Saying: "yours is the holy land, you may claim it again!"
