Of Soul And Flesh

Do I have to close my eyes
everytime blood rains?
To rub salt into my wounds
everytime I pray?

New gods
replacing
the old ones

Do I have to fear for life
when I fall asleep?
To be scared by every thought -
- secrets I can ´t keep?

New lies
replacing
the old ones

Not to pass the seal of blame
onto someone else
when the dream egg crumbles down
to withstand that day
that seems to be
the only way...
