We shall never suffer the sinister veils of indoctrination upon our eyes! They lead minds into seeing that which lies not there. Our ears shall not hear that which has not been spoken, and our hands shall only create that which lessens not.

lyrics

Could I ever put my trust in one I can’t see?
Hope for the truth of some old tales – That’s not for me!
I am one that can’t believe in anyone:
Not yours, truly, self-sufficient, Athean!

Your voice gives me shivers of indifference –
my ignorance comes, at times, as such a bless.
And, as some may find beauty in your darkness,
I still fail to feel any warmth of your caress…

An arabesque of shadows draws your face on the ground,
They hear your voice in every sound;
But to me you’re just emptiness and silence –
A barren echo of a fading trance…

When your hand falls down upon them, they all give in…
All around me lives by rules I don’t believe in…
I am one that can’t believe in anyone:
Not yours, truly, self-sufficient, Athean!
