Marionettes (II. The Ascent)

Looking up and gripping their strings They ask where do they lead? Where do they lead? Climb! Climb! Search and seek! We will test this truth' you speak! Climb! Climb! Search and seek! We will test this truth' you speak! By the sweat of one's brow Thou shall eat bread But curiosity began to creep From underneath the bed Of toil and doctrine And the marionettes awaken Into a nightmare Now we see the warning sign We'll disobey our Frankenstein I keep my focus, keep my cool The higher we go, climbing up to heaven Or a hell or maybe something inconceivable It used to be unspeakable We snatch back our strings And as the freedom bell rings They start to sing Reveal yourself, reveal yourself The world that you created Is not mightier Than our means to remake it! Our minds are firewood And now we spark the match We set ourselves alight Escape this childhood And now we spark the match We set ourselves alight We set ourselves alight Our minds are firewood And now we spark the match We set ourselves alight Oh, truth hurts Now you know - truth frees Oh, truth hurts Now you know - truth frees Our minds are firewood And now we spark the match We set ourselves alight Escape this childhood And now we spark the match We set ourselves alight (Oh, truth hurts) We set ourselves alight (Now you know - truth frees) (Oh, truth hurts) Our minds are firewood And now we spark the match (Now you know - truth frees) We set ourselves alight Truth hurts Now you know - truth frees Truth hurts Now you know - truth frees Truth hurts Now you know - truth frees Truth hurts Now you know - truth frees Truth hurts Now you know - truth frees
