lyrics

In former days
there were shepherd liars
leading towns with banner raised
They craved the golden wine
wills high men are
missing made of sand
They realize their sin
no one dares to breathe
they repress their rage
Now times have changed
the people damned
doesn´t gazed into the sun

In former days
they couldn´t break away
the reach of slavish pride
They yearned the inspiring voice
hands over ears
had passed her by
In former days
great thinkers believed
they had colonized the Plato´s cave
Frayed ditties learned
unable to move
everyone swallowed the rules

Enough cunning wolves
They want to lead them to illusory doors
No more idols in the nightstand
that prevent them diving in the light



En tiempos pasados
hubo pastores mentirosos
guiando ciudades con estandartes alzados
Ansiaban el dorado vino
la elevada voluntad de los hombres se echa en falta
hecha de arena
Se dan cuenta de su pecado
nadie se atreve a respirar
reprimen su rabia
Ahora los tiempos han cambiado
la gente maldijo
nadie miró hacia el sol

En tiempos pasados
no pudieron desprenderse
del alcance del orgullo servil
Anhelaban la inspiradora voz
las manos sobre los oídos
pasaron sin tocarla
En tiempos pasados
grandes pensadores creyeron
que habían colonizado la caverna de Platón
Raídas cantinelas aprendidas
sin poder actuar
todo el mundo tragó con las normas

Suficientes lobos astutos
quieren conducirles hacia puertas ilusorias
Basta de ídolos en la mesilla de noche
que les impiden bucear en la luz
