This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Release me
No remnants were ever found of it
Feeling the hot bile
With every fake smile
Though no evidence was ever found it never went away completely
I try to appellate a holy sound of it
Another day gone
Another night's drawn
Dark forces pull me underground and never went away completely
How can I feel this empty
I will not recover this time
This loneliness is killing me
Will I ever know peace of mind again
I don't believe it
I can't achieve it
I think I know it's just another sign that never went away completely
Terror is coursing in me
Can you find a moment
Where I have to be
And feel you die
In asylum (I live a lie)
Don't you know I'm in love with you and I wasn't ready
For asylum (relive a lie)
To let go
Now it's dragging me into your grave
Your asylum (forget the lie)
Overcome and the feeling that I won't get to join you in time
But the loneliness is killing me, yeah!
Death's images are all around again
They're right behind me
They're gonna find me
Judge me for my mortal sin that have enveloped me completely
I know I'll never know a peaceful night again
Afraid they'll hear me
They don't fear me
Punishment for me of a moral crime the debt was never paid completely
Terror is coursing in me
Can you find a moment
Where I have to be
And feel you die
In asylum (I live a lie)
Don't you know I'm in love with you and I wasn't ready
For asylum (relive a lie)
To let go
Now it's dragging me into your grave
Your asylum (forget the lie)
Overcome and the feeling that I won't get to join you in time
But the loneliness is killing me
In the end there will be no suffering (more suffering)
In the end we will find out everything (not everything)
In the end you may question your belief (what belief?)
In the end you will realize someday
How you were deceived
This has gone on too long (too long)
No more demonic race
Destroyer come to light
Because the memory is killing me
In asylum (I live a lie)
I let go now it's dragging me into your grave
For asylum (we live a lie)
Overcome and the feeling that I won't get to join you time (without you)
This world is not fulfilling me
Don't make me live in asylum
I live alive
Don't want to live in asylum
I live a lie
Don't make me live in asylum
I am a lie
No remnants were ever found of it
Feeling the hot bile
With every fake smile
Though no evidence was ever found it never went away completely
I try to appellate a holy sound of it
Another day gone
Another night's drawn
Dark forces pull me underground and never went away completely
How can I feel this empty
I will not recover this time
This loneliness is killing me
Will I ever know peace of mind again
I don't believe it
I can't achieve it
I think I know it's just another sign that never went away completely
Terror is coursing in me
Can you find a moment
Where I have to be
And feel you die
In asylum (I live a lie)
Don't you know I'm in love with you and I wasn't ready
For asylum (relive a lie)
To let go
Now it's dragging me into your grave
Your asylum (forget the lie)
Overcome and the feeling that I won't get to join you in time
But the loneliness is killing me, yeah!
Death's images are all around again
They're right behind me
They're gonna find me
Judge me for my mortal sin that have enveloped me completely
I know I'll never know a peaceful night again
