Текст песни Age of Excuse III - Mgła

Out of howling of prophets
And curses of the righteous
In the ivory halls
A new kind of champion is bred
Herostrates for the modern day
High on good conscience
A noblest of sufferers
On disinformation highway
At the end of the day it's the same old script
Do you believe in victory or do you hail defeat
Those finaglers of justice
Expert wrights in deceit
Carvers of the crooked timber
And their finely tuned farce
Proclaiming anger and rage
Under the mortal threat it thrives
At the end of the day it's the same old script
Do you believe in victory or do you hail defeat
Ersatz revolt
Ersatz rebellion
For a new world would come
Every once in a while
Purer, brighter, clearer, better
And the last of misbelievers
Will be trampled in the greatest of marches
Toward the radiant future
Where sheep are promised fangs
And only after the graves are filled
With remains of dissidents
And the frame of reference is torched
Together with forbidden thoughts
Then, and only then
The disciple is relieved
The true believer has overcome the evils
Of engineering of dissent
At the bottom of things it's the same old script
Do you believe in victory or do you hail defeat
Ersatz revolt
Ersatz rebellion
For a new world would come
Every once in a while
Purer, brighter, clearer, better
Ersatz purpose
Ersatz alliance
Ersatz ideals
Ersatz communion
