We seek To live the perfect life And we choose not, therefore, To believe God is gone; Once upon a time We searched for the answers The fires took to sleep; Atop the corpses Countless roses grow In a world where Peace Overcomes War In a world where Bloodshed is common Only in books And security is found In all homes Harmony is the laughingstock For the Devil himself But sown to our coats is the desire To live the perfect life We seek

The Life We Seek
We seek To live the perfect life And we choose not, therefore, To believe God is gone; Once upon a time We searched for the answers The fires took to sleep; Atop the corpses Countless roses grow In a world where Peace Overcomes War In a world where Bloodshed is common Only in books And security is found In all homes Harmony is the laughingstock For the Devil himself But sown to our coats is the desire To live the perfect life We seek
