Lyric discussion by clay-man 

Translated, it comes different from the English version of the song:

From a scale as dark as hate, which only thoughts escaping A broken heart served on a platter paves the way for the thought you shun I'm so tired of everything, all the shadows that obscure my vision every day A manifesto created by anxiety, pulsing in my blood

(Chorus) I know how to swallow pain Give him and let the mercury work

So goes a day of my life and will never return A helping hand a few feet away, leaving only delegates My fate is in hands of hypocrisy, wherever I turn in the world I stand alone a moment, one moment at a time

(Chorus) I know how to swallow pain Give him and let the mercury work

Behind dreary public doors Is there a plague to destroy

I am full of fear and out of balance These empty words suffocates me a total of

Give me the strength to resist, forces jaws Dar behind dreary public doors

Is there a plague to destroy Drag me straight down the cliff edge as a puppet I go straight down in filth and depravity, completely dumbfounded and quite harmless!

SOLO

(Chorus) I know how to swallow pain Give him and let the mercury work (Repeat)
