Marionettes (II. The Ascent)
Looking up and gripping their strings
They ask where do they lead?
Where do they lead?
Climb, climb, search and seek
We will test this truth you speak
Climb, climb, search and seek
We will test this truth you speak
By the sweat of one's brow thou shall eat bread
But curiosity began to creep from underneath the bed
Of toil and doctrine and the marionettes awaken
Into a nightmare
Now we see the warning sign
We'll disobey our Frankenstein
I keep my focus, keep my cool
The higher we go
Climbing up to heaven or a hell
Or maybe something inconceivable
It used to be unspeakable
We snatch back our strings
And as the freedom bell rings
They start to sing
Reveal yourself, reveal yourself
The world that you created
Is not mightier
Than our means to remake it
Our minds are firewood
And now we spark the match
We set ourselves alight
Escape this childhood
And now we spark the match
We set ourselves alight
We set ourselves alight
Our minds are firewood
And now we spark the match
We set ourselves alight
Oh, truth hurts
Now you know, truth frees
Oh, truth hurts
Now you know, truth frees
Our minds are firewood
And now we spark the match
We set ourselves alight
Escape this childhood
And now we spark the match
We set ourselves alight
We set ourselves alight
Our minds are firewood
And now we spark the match
We set ourselves alight
Truth hurts
Now you know, truth frees
Truth hurts
Now you know, truth frees
Truth hurts
Now you know, truth frees
Truth hurts
Now you know, truth frees
Truth hurts
Now you know, truth frees
