The Garroter - Opeth Lyrics








Lone hunter in the fray of the lonely fading light

A manifest for the garroter stuck to his plight



Young and elder, never mind

Programmed mortal, set lifeline



A mother says no and father cracks a simple plan

A knife is sharpened, his children run but he'll advance



Alas, how fragile life can be

Love is strong when death foresees

Yet the story won't end here

No, oh no, oh no



Ulterior motive, the grinning face of leadership

A selfish wish to control a nation in his grip



Strong against weak and immobilized

Secular for fascist lies



The beautiful people look down from ruby vantage points

While in the gutter, starvation invites us to join



Barricades of wealthy youth

Protesting their inborn truth



The Garroter lyrics !!!
