Philistine City Lyrics - Michael Kiske

[M&L - M. Kiske] 

On our long uneasy way 

Never there, never stay 

We please ourselves, eat ourselves 

It gets us through the day 

Maybe we should pray 

'cos we all are gonna pay 

For the arrows for others 

That we shoot up today 

All senses are numb, 

The candle grows cold 

In questioning hours 

All answers are sold 

The bitter taste on your tongue 

You wash it down with some cheap fun 

The arrow cuts deeper 

The cheating gets done

I don't know! 

Deep down within - we all feel the sin 

From darkness we raise - but it still hurts them too 

We all save our piece - just begging: oh, please 

Make it go away - all thinking 'bout those who freeze outhere 

It's a myth when we say: 

Give love 

It's meaningless, meaningless 

Sounds like the croak of frogs 

We preach out in the blue 

But never change anything we do 

Our words have no weight 

And our wisdom won't do 

Photos 

I don't believe 

In your american dream 

No more, no way 

It's all not what it seems 

We always hear them pray 

Thanking the lord for the money days 

And the anger grows stronger 

In those who failed the play 

I don't know! 

Deep down within - we all feel the sin 

From darkness we raise - but it still hurts them too 

We all save our piece - just begging: oh, please 

Make it go away - all thinking 'bout those who bleed outhere 

Changing colors, changing facades, 

Changing fashions, changing masquerades. 

New generations, oh! with whole new conceptions. 

So it won't go away that caricature of man.
