Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
Just a step cried the sad man
Take a look down at the madman
Theatre kings on silver wings
Fly beyond reason
From the flight of the seagull
Come the spread claws of the eagle
Only fear breaks the silence
As we all kneel pray for guidance
ย
Tread the road cross the abyss
ย
Take a look down at the madness
On the streets of the city
Only spectres still have pity
Patient queues for the gallows
Sing the praises of the hallowed
Our machines feed the furnace
If they take us they will burn us
ย
Will you still know who you are
When you come to who you are
ย
When the flames have their season
ย
Will you hold to your reason
ย
Loaded down with your talents
Can you still keep your balance
Can you live on a knife-edge
