《The Oppressors (Race Against Time cover)》歌词

[00:00:32] I LOOSE MY TONGUE AND TELL ALL WHO WILL LISTEN

[00:00:37] AND BEG OF MY FRIENDS TO ASSUME MY POSITION

[00:00:41] PRETENDING BELIEF THEY TRY TO EXPLAIN

[00:00:44] BUT CLEARLY THEY REALLY BELIEVE I'M INSANE

[00:00:56] DESPITE THE INTENSITY OF ALL THAT I HAVE SEEN

[00:00:59] MY RIGID CONVICTION - IT WAS NOT A DREAM

[00:01:03] THEY SOW SEEDS OF UNCERTAINTY DEEP IN MY MIND

[00:01:07] THEY PLANT DOUBT AND QUESTIONS ATTEMPTING TO BLIND ME

[00:01:52] MY TREMBLING ARM IS TAKEN BY A STRANGER'S OUTSTRETCHED HAND

[00:01:57] HIS GRIP IS FIRM HIS VOICE IS STERN AND I SUCCUMB TO HIS DEMANDS

[00:02:01] CONFUSED (AND NOT A LITTLE SCARED) I AM TAKEN TO A ROOM

[00:02:06] WHERE BUT ONE SINGLE CANDLE FLAME RELIEVES THE HEAVY GLOOM

[00:02:09] THERE DO I RETELL MY TALE NOT ONCE BUT MANY TIMES

[00:02:15] AT LAST BELIEVED I AM RELIEVED CONTENTMENT NOW IS MINE

[00:02:28] In ships of fire and helms of bronze they came to meet me

[00:02:36] A sight as strange as death itself - believe me don't bereave me

[00:02:46] Children of light from the corners of time fanning the embers of piece

[00:02:54] Their intent was defied in the face of mankind and begone we compelled them to leave "

[00:03:08] All at once their sympathy averts to ridicule they scorn me as they would a clown a jester or a fool

[00:03:15] "Forgive us for misleading you" my captor wryly said "those things you saw were real enough - but only in your head"

[00:03:31] So am I insane Now I'm not so sure straining my senses still I must endure

[00:03:39] Trapped in this labyrinth of doubt and confusion denial of all is my only solution
