lyrics

I am collecting a strange puzzle of vision
Fragments of facts, scraps of insights
I am afraid to put the final pieces
The figure obtained is destroying my mind

I am amazed by what I am able to see
Astonishment turns to disgust then to horror
The shelter of innocence no longer exists
I am not sure whether we'll see tomorrow

They say we are rabid
Сan’t be tolerated but
No, we did not start this war
No justice, no law
No, we can't bear anymore

Nothing remains obscured and unexplained
Our role is clear I can not deny it
Everything that happens fits into the simple scheme
We're just the livestock devoured alive

Puzzle is collected, I have read your message
You think we are your prey, why should we agree?
Now I discerned you, I have no more questions
The inhuman creatures consumed with greed

Hey, nameless swineherd who helps us to gain weight
Leave your sugary tales, now it's sour
Instead of pork you will taste our hate
Beware, the sweet piglets grew up to wild boars

Yes, we didn't start it
But we can stop it
What a surprise, we are not your pets
The era of vain expectations is over
Now we will rise, our lives will be our only bet

Don't you think it's a great imposture
Shall we trust our self-styled masters?
Swineherds's faces turn to snouts
Real pigs they are, you know it
Lie is broken, masks are torn off
That's all of pigs and men
