Lyrics
This is the great mistake the blinding drug that the people crave
This refers to a significant error, likened to an intoxicating substance that society desires.
A blunder so grave it hides and it prays on the will of man
It's a serious mistake that conceals itself and preys upon humanity's determination.
Masked behind our meaningless lives
Our superficial, purposeless existences serve as a mask for this mistake.
Bound is the book of lies and sold back to you at a price
Truth is obscured and then marketed back to individuals at a cost.
It's gone straight for your heart ready to make its mark
It aims directly at the core of your being, prepared to leave its imprint.
Where all alone in the empty dark
In a state of complete isolation within the dark emptiness.
Silence provides no solace and answers
Silence doesn't bring comfort or solutions.
When you're faced with the void
When confronted with emptiness or meaninglessness.
Naive never believe
Don't be so trusting.
Naive always deceived
Continually tricked due to excessive trust.
God has been mistaken by man's imagination
Man's interpretations and misconceptions have altered the concept of God.
And this has led to societies decay
This misunderstanding has led to the decline of societies.
A fictional creation of the human lies
God is portrayed as an invention based on human falsehoods.
Why don’t we open those delicate eye
Why don’t we awaken to the truth?
You can lead a horse to water
Guidance can be given, but an individual must choose to accept it.
But you can’t make him drink
An individual can be shown a path, but cannot be forced to follow it.
You can show a fool his dumb
A fool can be shown their foolishness, but they must choose to think for themselves.
But you can’t make him think
One can’t compel a fool to reason.
This is the great mistake the blinding drug that the people crave
A repetition of the initial line emphasizing the societal error and its allure.
A blunder so grave it hides and it prays on the will of man
Reiteration of the severity of this mistake and its manipulation of human determination.
Masked behind our meaningless lives
Reinforcing the idea that our lives mask this grave mistake.
Bound is the book of lies and sold back to you at a price
Truth is constrained and then resold at a cost.
It's gone straight for your heart ready to make its mark
This mistake aims directly at one’s emotional core, poised to leave an impact.
Where all alone in the empty dark
In solitude within the vast darkness.
Silence provides no solace and answers
Quietness offers no comfort or solutions.
When you're faced with the void
When faced with a lack of meaning or purpose.
Naive never believe
Caution against being too trusting.
Naive always deceived
Continuously misled due to excessive trust.
This is the great mistake the blinding drug that the people crave
Reiteration of the societal error and its attractive nature.
A blunder so grave it hides and it prays on the will of man
Reemphasizing the seriousness of this mistake and its manipulation of human determination.
Masked behind our meaningless lives
Reiterating that our lives serve as a cover for this significant mistake.
Bound is the book of lies and sold back to you at a price
Truth is restricted and then marketed back at a price.
