[00:00.00] 作曲 : Vegard Sverre 'Ihsahn' Tveitan[00:34.53]Citizen! Whence came your voice[00:37.05]Your right to speak?[00:40.53]Is there a purpose to your tongue[00:43.14]And gnawing teeth?[00:46.59]I ask thee;[00:46.98]How deep and hollow[00:48.66]Is your mouth?[00:50.82]What lie is too decayed[00:52.95]For you to stomach?[01:01.89]With humility and obedience[01:06.27]You pride yourself[01:12.99]Evasive and lukewarm[01:17.22]Until the end[01:18.00]Citizen! The interdependent morality[01:32.70]Of your collective[01:34.59]Made too soft the bed[01:36.54]In which you lie.[01:39.39]I ask thee;[01:40.32]Do you acknowledge[01:42.03]Your own fragility[01:45.15]When you sleep[01:46.35]To server the "Great Good"?[03:09.06]United in fear[03:09.78]Lives "hard to bear"[03:18.42]Illusions that "we are all peers"[03:23.40]I preach not for understanding[03:27.39]In you I have no faith[03:31.02]I spit at you my truth;[03:46.86]That you are the burden of my heritage.[03:47.64]For herein lies the irony[03:48.87]There is neither room[03:50.94]Nor air For the wakeful fire[04:10.47]In your precious world[04:10.95]Of equality[04:11.25]Citizen! You are truly faithful[04:28.56]To tradition[04:31.62]When you crucify[04:33.06]Those whose voices burn[04:36.48]Alas A hundred years from now[04:39.30]You recite and corrupt[04:42.24]Their epitaphs[04:43.68]To crucify another.
