[Music & Lyrics: Sammet]
Gaze at the leaving clairvoyant
Predicting invasions and pain
A child cansee through the stranger...
The Watcher`s eye, the noble liar
It`s time for the merchant and his help for sale...
Blades to cut wicked flesh
On a merchantman he counts his money
Then he sails away
The sea he`ll cruise is blood and fire
Oh father I can`t see a lane
They make you a pawn in the game
For we all are deaf, dumb and blind
After the storm when the magic has gone
Drown in the tears of a mandrake
Pawn in the game, invisible chains
Try to move, you`ll feel as they graze
After the storm when the magic has gone
Drown in the tears of a mandrake
Fading away, the final decay
Try to move, break out from your chains
When you`re off to the hall of the serpent
See the cynic who`s counting his gold
While gun runners, priests and clairvoyants
Are dancing around the rising demon
You are taught to eat up all the crap they shit
Parading your nuts on a silver plate
Kill your brother by the blade they sell
For you don`t unite
They reap your bondage sowing evil
There`s no use to tell what I`ve seen
They know how to make you believe
Just what they want you to know
[repeat chorus/ solo: Jens/both/Jens/both]
Tears of a mandrake - yeah...
[solo: Jens/Both]
[repeat chorus]
Drown in the tears of the mandrake
Pawn in the game - Drown in the tears of a mandrake
