lyrics

''-Days go on and on
with no change.
-Hey, schmuck of ages,
the sabbath's over''

Well it's one for the money
Two for the show
Three to get ready
But there's nowhere to go

The spirit strives on
The voice screams ''We are free''
Looking for beauty
But there's nothing to see

The last drop of freedom
Dies shattered with glass
Our hymns and our slogans
Fading out in the mass

Innocence corrupted
Falling out of the line
We're embracing this sickness
That is keeping us bound

Yesterday's determination
All vanished in smoke
And tommorow's make believes
They all sound like a joke

Running through this nightmare
Don't you tell us to stop
To late for all the begging
The revel ends when we drop

Night's exalted echoes
Dour songs of despair
Devoid of all the meaning
But the devil may care

Feigning all the smiling
Masks hiding the frown
Neon lights above us
Glimmer on our way down

The Sun will rise tommorow
And our dour songs will fade
Leaving a faint shadow
Whispering
Calling our names
Still there's no redemption coming
And no one around to blame
Only resignation and defiance
At whatever comes our way

Well, it's one for desperation
And it's two for the lies
And it's three for the sins
For the guilt in our eyes

Yesterday is buried
With the sins of the past
Living for the moment
Nothing's destined to last

Dusk wakes me reborn
And dawn buries me dead
And one more anguished cry
For the times when we bled

Vanished with the memory
Giving in to the haze
Set to self destruct
We're breaking free from our chains

Last beams of light
Withered away
With the regret
I rise from the grave

Indulging once more
To the need driving me mad
This circle of mine
Spins me around

I find myself both dazed and amused by the diversity and substance on offer here. Dawhn has constructed a grand work of variety with Depravation, each track unique and distinct from the rest, yet part of a greater whole. Arrogant Bastard
