Abandoned, Pleased, Brainwashed, Exploited Lyrics by Sonata Arctica

Winterheart’s Guild

2003

[Verse 1]
Wake up, my child, hope is here
With the vengeance, we have no time to bleed
My only world filled with fear
I never saw the sower of the seed
[Verse 2]
Where is the world we had?
Who can ever save you and your little lives?
A child guides a child-guided child
A child is never guilty, but you should not run free
[Pre-Chorus]
The grave is open, let us pray without remorse
Empty the cradle with fire for them once again
Why not look through your fingers what they've done?
Your own blood will clean the blood
For now the glory days are gone
[Chorus]
It's time for everyone
To think what we have done
Open your eyes and see, it's not a dream
You aim for a common goal
You are one with your foe
If only we could wake up soon and scream
[Verse 3]
Abandoned, pleased, brainwashed, exploited
Madness has a reason
Throw money at the problem, and it will remain
Your life has no value for them
"Violate me and this never ends
My children will then hate you too"
[Pre-Chorus]
The grave is open, let us pray without remorse
Empty the cradle with fire for them once again
Why not look through your fingers what they've done?
Your own blood will clean the blood
For now the glory days are gone
[Bridge]
Now, when it seems that we have nothing to believe in
Maybe we should be waiting for the rock to come
For our children soon have nothing they should learn
[Pre-Chorus]
The grave is open, let us pray without remorse
Empty the cradle with fire for them once again
Why not look through your fingers what they've done?
Your own blood will clean the blood
For now the glory days are gone
[Chorus]
It's time for everyone
To think what we have done
Open your eyes and see, it's not a dream
You aim for a common goal
You are one with your foe
If only we could wake up soon and scream
It's time for everyone
To think what we have done
Open your eyes and see, it's not a dream
You aim for a common goal
You are one with your foe
If only we could wake up soon and scream
