Silent Vanity

Ancient Path

Silent Vanity


For you were given the chance
To change the fate of your hateful race

What can you offer me?
Help? Solace? Some new religion?
I don’t need any of this
Life as I see it
Seems to be a void between doubts
And the sense of questioning

The Ancient: Since (the) ancient times the order offers light to the chosen ones
If you can know yourself, you will know the gods

Order? Light? Truth?

The shadows have blinded you since you were born
It’s time to give up all your illusions

Why should I take your offer
Once what you say is worse than my unbelief?
How can I go on knowing that it’s possible

That a veil of illusion is covering my eyes?
You do not bring me answers
You just raise the voices in my head
But one thing I know
I’m going to devote myself to gaining comprehension

(See for yourself) Come, my boy, take your place among the free men
See for yourself!

Show me! Then open the portal
And let me read the book of the wise!
