My bitter truth! I am stateless, just drifting loveless Born into a dungeon and brought up by despair Haunted by distress, isolated, dominated
Never will I reach my final haven And your freedom burns my soul For I am stateless, no past will set my future Oh, how I miss the purity of my heart
There was nothing, that I knew about your world And the more I learn, the more I grow apart from you I've never met an honest smile, I never felt a caring touch My bitter truth!
And never will I reach my final haven And your liberty just confined me For I am stateless, no past will set my future Oh, how I miss the purity of my heart
All this falseness, all your vanities and stains Your pointless pains and sorrows It's raining down on me like countless burning arrows Just scorch my body and pierce my unshielded soul Escaped into a world full of deceit I never learned to live under a thousand creeds
Never will I reach my final haven As my inner dungeon defines me For I am stateless, no past will set my future Oh, how I miss the purity of my heart
My bitter truth! I am stateless
