Decay

Music & lyrics by Johan Jarl
You’re moving silently on windy roads
A peal of laughter desperate on your lips
But you’re dancing nervously in your dreams
All these lovely illusions forever well concealed
There are various people lacking simple things
They will always drain you, hail your decay
They say compassion is a useful tool
I say it helps them in their deceptive ways
From time to time we lose ambiguity
Until the end of time we’re locked in our universe
From dusk till dawn we stage creativity
The crossroads of your choice
Decay of your common sense
Tempting mind, temping fears, temping goals
Temping life, tempting words never surface anymore
They caress you shamelessly, you learn to trust
You are mistaken, yet you are bright
These deceitful creatures who seemed so naïve
What was so alluring became your death
Industrious creativity can be the road to fortune
But when you’re walking down the path of desolation
You act an important part in the staging of a play
That you’re incapable of experiencing
And soon you’ll realize that nothing is more vital
Than the abusive consumption of your needs
Now you’re riding recklessly death’s carousel
A broken promise in a sea of grief
