You think you can hide from the life that you made

You think you can run from the hell you created

Never a thought for the fruits of your labour

Just some vague and fading picture

You think I would laugh in the face of neglect

You think I would smile in the light of rejection

Never a thought to the flesh and the blood

Just some weak and willing victim



"All that glisters is not gold",

or so the wise man said

"When greed awakes upon your shoulder

Hearts will turn to lead"

Fools gold! Ah, fools gold!



Fly to the valleys, fly to the hills

Try to exist on your own without feelings

Ripping your soul beyond all recognition

Unforgiven, twisted vision



Let your conscience decide!



Can you live with yourself

and the deed you have done

Conquer your thoughts when all this has begun

It's tearing your mind into guilt and regret

Troubled dreams - You'll not forget this!



"All that glisters is not gold",

or so the wise man said

"When greed awakes upon your shoulder

Hearts will turn to lead"

Fools gold! Fools gold!



No........It's not all right to call

No........It's not all right to haul me over hot coals

Burning the soles of my feet

Biting deep - Deep into my flesh - My hands



Vengeance - Be sure that I will repay you

Vengeance - Be sure that I will be

the one to betray you!



Vengeance - I'll strike like a snake

when your back is turned

Vengeance - I shall light the fire

and leave you to burn



Digging deep for something of value

How much more must I tear at the soil?

Then at my feet I find angels and saints

Pleading for forgiveness



Digging deep for something of val
