Semblance Of Liberty Lyrics - Design Your Universe - Epica

Born to fight, and we're born to flee 

Doomed to live on ecstasy 

Born to lie, and we're born to cheat 

Look in the mirror, who do you see? 

Born to flee, and we're born to fight 

Without your mask, you're terrified 

Don't hide your personality 

That's who you are, your identity 

If the virtues of tomorrow 

Cause the greed of today 

We won't have a future 

Nor liberty 

Born to breathe, and we're born to pursue 

That's all we are supposed to do 

The semblance of our liberty 

Is nothing more than slavery

Born to flee, and we're born to fight 

Is it failure that's our delight? 

Born to cheat, and we're born to lie 

Look at yourself, have you lost your mind? 

If the virtues of tomorrow 

Cause the greed of today 

We won't have a future 

And no more liberty 

If the virtues of tomorrow 

Set the need on the way 

We won't have a future nor liberty 

Private vice leads to public virtue 

Raised to think that we are free 

Living in our caves 

Being slaves 

We lost control of our lives 

At the mercy of the waves 

Massive waves 

Photos 

Blind to see what's going on 

Conditioned as we are 

And we are 

We lost control of our greed 

But now we face it all 

Face our fall 

Keeping all that we've created 

And consuming all that's possible 

Reaching deep into temptation 

Nothing can stop us 

Guarantee our hard-earned profits 

Multiplied ten-fold if possible 

Reaching out for new redemption 

Nothing avails our needs 

My opponent won't rule out raising taxes. 

But I will, and The Congress will push me to raise taxes and I'll say no. 

And they'll push, and I'll say no, 

And they'll push again, and I'll say to them, 

Read my lips 

If the virtues of tomorrow 

Set the need on the way 

We never had a future anyway 

We had no future 'till today 

Time and tide 

Will not wait for anyone
