Quake

0. Lyrics to song

1):
Mush, 
And all that other sentimental stuff. 
It's hard to stomach,
all that frightful guff. 
It's on a par with,
sugar-coated sleaze, 
Histrions' disease. 
Happiness,
has lost its innocence. 
Cries of joy,
have to hedge their bets. 

2):
Strange, 
How everything,
seems to go to plan. 
It's as if,
I had things in my hands, 
All the same,
it's easy to self-deceive, 
Wishfully believe.
An eery mood,
feeling ill at ease.
The ground shakes (sinks),
underneath my feet.

Refrain):
Quaking, breaking, timidly shaking,
Burning yearning, anxiously turning.
It's almost Pentecostal,
Like Paul and the Apostles.
Craving for redemption,
Through otherworldy intervention.
Who is that brave man,
Who would stand in hope's way?
Robbing Empyrean promises,
From those who came to pray.

3):
Quake, 
What will it take,
to crack the bony cast? 
A contrivance,
made to hold us fast. 
To slip in,
behind the scene, 
Where the caster schemes. 
The lighting's dim,
in th' Hephaistic fold, 
The Demiurge's,
forging a new soul. 

4):
Quatsch, 
Was glaubst du an,
wirkkausales Zeug? 
Als könnte das,
wetteifern mit dem Pentateuch. 
Die Wissenschaft,
hat sie die Wahrheit gepachtet? 
Und alles sonst verachtet?
Es wäre schad',
gefangen zu bleiben.
Als könnte man,
die Welt nicht anders beschreiben.

Refrain):

Outro):
