Neaera - Scars Of Gray lyrics

Scars of gray The grave heritage Pain aches at the country's soul A historical trauma to last forever It harms our confidence still A divided nation - not becoming one An era of unique sickness And obsolete ideas of an archaic mind Vision of Megalomania - A perverse hierarchy And countless hands stained with blood Drunken dreams of a glorious age collapsed Their souls died with their illusions A nation's subtle suicide Perfection, strength, glory Heroic statues built on quicksand A nightmare Guilt and shame - to shape endless lives Defeat, decay - to stab a nation's soul Disgrace, regret - to trigger an endless Process of purification Shadows of the past Leave to free us Shadows of this darkest chapter Stay forever - to remind us eternally Vision of Megalomania - a perverse hierarchy And countless hands stained with blood Drunken dreams of a glorious age collapsed Their souls died with their illusions A nation's subtle suicide Will these wounds ever heal? Will the price be forgetfulness? Scars of gray The subliminal pain
