Hjärtat Vet Vad Handen Gör

Opeth Opeth

The Heart Knows What the Hand Does

It's just so pathetic! Ugh!
Who the hell are you?

Take it as a promise and go
Two doses of daily poison became a thrill
Still, you can't understand
Chewing on the slaughtered meat on your shift

Facts spill out and you believe
Slaves obey the conspiracy
The door shuts out your brother
A lust murder on a vague relationship

War in a utopia
Kill anyone who breaks free from symmetry

The parody turned serious
And we're buying time
The people are losing ground but we love the monarchy
Death is a fairy tale in a land bought on credit
The wave, black as silver, weighed down by the hunt for dopamine

Intolerance disguised as a virtue
Secretly, empathy is hate
Self-criticism online became safe
A throne for a modern psychopath

War in a utopia
Kill anyone who breaks free from symmetry

The parody turned serious
And we're buying time
The people are losing ground but we love the monarchy
Death is a fairy tale in a land bought on credit
The wave, black as silver, weighed down by the hunt for dopamine

When I was young
So much younger than today
It felt easy to live back then
There was no time to lose
And no desire to understand
The weight of pain
Because it came to visit every year anyway
And it never left my life
But behind my door
There was a kingdom
A secret map shows the way
To treasures of plastic
And pearls of glass
