The Only Truth

A generation raised in darkness
 Controlled, polluted, fed with the truth
 A truth that blinds their view
 Their ways and fates decided, implanted sorrows kill their needs
 A common way to happiness, but I never learned to sell myself
 ♪
 Poets became silent
 While clowns arose and burned the books again
 No thinkers daring vision grew
 Where thieves ran free and crippled human dignity
 In the noise of unimportance
 And stupidity the sceptic's whispers went unheard
 ♪
 Be sure, this storm will not drown my voice
 Be sure, my hands will sow the seeds of reason
 I'll never be a minor, I'll never be a happy slave
 ♪
 May this cold sever my face
 And my the pain weaken my fists
 No inner strife will touch me
 The only truth is in my heart
