Alienation

So, stay there ghost my wishing tree
I've been chose, this outer space
And the idyllic swing on
Which I'd swung from
Exchange more parrot disgrace
All hail this ail spinning back
From an orbit laid in vain
From this empire man cannot name
Alienation, alienation
Free the morning
Free revelation
Alienation, oh
Auf wiedersehen
For every one of you
Who dwells a trillion stars
As without any true regrets
Truth gets stoned by change
Which taints how I've arrived
Via an oath I can't slam shut
Alienation, alienation
Free the morning
Free revelation
Alienation, Alienation
Want a movement, fear penetration
Alienation, oh
Auf wiedersehen
And I sing how does a wishing tree run dry?
Child you stand a remembrance in my mind
The embrace those who loved you, you cannot die
Safe beyond the regents and a hive
Safe from clutch of jackals and plus mime crimes
Never yielding
Alienation, alienation
Freed the morning
Free revelation
Alienation, Alienation
Born a movement, fear penetration
Alienation, oh
Auf wiedersehen
For every one of you
Who dwells a trillion stars
Lighting way from truth to absolute
Truth gets stoned by change
Which taints how I've arrived
As when atom 'tis but a grain of sand
And those lost are never forgotten
You married time
Home is where you choke
Ending your days
Alienation
Alienation, alienation
Free the morning
Free revelation
Alienation, Alienation
Want a movement, fear penetration
Alienation, oh
Auf wiedersehen
Auf wiedersehen
Auf wiedersehen
Auf wiedersehen
Auf wiedersehen
Auf wiedersehen
Auf wiedersehen
