Man Behind The Curtain Lyrics by Vast Illusion

Little Box

2016

Far away, I see the man behind the curtain
The woman on the ground knows he’s just a servant
Of greed and disgrace, stroking across his face
Dunning “this sloppy world’s gotta be rearranged”
He takes down his hat, looking straight into my eyes
Then I knew, that he would no longer be denied
Even if everybody lost the faith in him
He’ll be standing on that corner, so just take it in
A sudden gunshot in the distance, breaking the silence
Telling me that I lost the man abolishing the violence
I can see that kid, running down the street
Tears in his eyes, now I know, it’s the last creed
Of mankind, ‘cause now we’ve just gone too far
No longer innocent, we only be the crack in his heart
I hate saying that, ‘cause they don’t wanna start, retard!
The man behind the curtain finally departs
Flying through a storm
He could see the exchange of time
Being erased just fine
Knowing so much more
He could heal the break in line
Seeing the end of time
Now we shut our doors, closing all of the blinds
Light’s vanished as we try to hold ourselves tonight
A hopeless try into the night, the man is gone
We had no take on it, so ask ‘were we wrong?’
Burning down the field on which we lived
I can remember as he raised his hand ‘that is what you did’
I felt the cold blood of loss running down her skin
Mankind’s dead and he said the line is just too thin
To keep up prudence and morality
Trust me when I tell you, that he despised brutality
You saw him leaving, rushing to the end
In every way he was the man who wanted to hold your shaky hand
Even as you washed away with innocence, a lie
He replied “I won’t be there if you die
So decide if you wanna start.” You, retards!
The man behind the curtain finally departs
Flying through a storm
He could see the exchange of time
Being erased just fine
Knowing so much more
He could heal the break in line
Seeing the end of time
Hiding from the calm
I know he could feel that death is right
He's the hate of mine
I can feel, he is gone
Now we can see the break in line
That this is the end of our time
