He who swears on a mighty flag
Has nothing left that belongs to him
Devastation of the inner self
Solitude beneath the skin
Sacrifice all of your needs
Ignoring lust and desires
Purgation in words and deeds
Instinct degraded to lies
Be better than you, appear to be
Once you've seen it
Whatever's in sight
Be harder against, yourself even more
Bring me the truth straight to the light
Mortification for a higher goal
He doesn't know his metes and bounds
Conversation to clean the soul
He is spending time to lick his wounds
Sacrifice all of your needs, ignoring lust and desires
Purgation in words and deeds, instinct degraded to lies
Be better than you, appear to be
Once you've seen it, whatever's in sight
Be harder against, yourself even more
Bring me the truth straight to the light
He who swears on a mighty flag
Has nothing left that belongs to him
Devastation of the inner self, solitude beneath the skin
Sacrifice all of your needs, ignoring lust and desires
Purgation in words and deeds, instinct degraded to lies
Be better than you, appear to be
Once you've seen it, whatever's in sight
Be harder against, yourself even more
Bring me the truth straight to the light
Be better than you whatever's in sight...
Be harder against - straight to the light
