Swollen Feet (The Oeudipus Complex)
Pull the nail, frail arms not meant to carry such swollen feet
Now forgotten, but you were born to be a king
In the city that you have come to call your home
Inebriated truths and now you're all alone
You can't believe what they have told you
Take a journey to discover who you are
The road is dangerous
I can't seem to find
The answer to this
Riddle of the Sphinx
It's only a man
Peace and love will follow you home
Retrace your footsteps
Unearth your roots not knowing who you are
Pain and anguish
We will all suffer this suffering
Plagues and famine
Please spare our blood sweat and tears
What have we done?
To deserve this fate
Repeat the past
Or become part of it
Blinded by my arrogance,
My pride said I was not at fault
This is all my doing
This is all my fault
I saw her hanging there above me
Her hair shone in the light
I removed her brooches
And used them as a knife
I was born to be a king
Now, blind for eternity
This is the will of the Gods
Now forgotten, but you were born to be a king
In the city that you have come to call your home
Inebriated truths and now you're all alone
You can't believe what they have told you
Take a journey to discover who you are
The road is dangerous
I can't seem to find
The answer to this
Riddle of the Sphinx
It's only a man
Peace and love will follow you home
Retrace your footsteps
Unearth your roots not knowing who you are
Pain and anguish
We will all suffer this suffering
Plagues and famine
Please spare our blood sweat and tears
What have we done?
To deserve this fate
Repeat the past
Or become part of it
Blinded by my arrogance,
My pride said I was not at fault
This is all my doing
This is all my fault
I saw her hanging there above me
Her hair shone in the light
I removed her brooches
And used them as a knife
I was born to be a king
Now, blind for eternity
This is the will of the Gods
