Omniscient Opponent Lyrics

All the freedom we want 
He strives to make it impossible 
And as we try to see colours, 
He systematically stains everything black

A vicious circle that consumes life 
As time runs fast, existence spills from our hands 
Relentless process that never ends 
Driving us to lose control of our lives

Feel the doom, embrace the antagonism 
Fake freedom is our opium and death

Failure by failure, we feel them as steps 
The old opponent knows and profits from them 
The healer who provides the cure 
Smiles in the darkness while the disease is born

We bear everyday, the weight of the engine 
A crippled system that swallows life 
Paying with blood, the price of existence 
And the right to live our own agony

An infant painfully learning the rules 
Hope slowly fades within a young naive soul 
The puppet tracing plans for his route 
Becomes the old man dying alone and poor

And as we try to open our eyes 
Omniscient opponent kills the light
