Píseň: Straws Pulled At Random

Interpret:
Meshuggah
Album:
Nothing
What solace lies in the arms of fate 
-The ill embrace of uncertainty 
When did I leave this in other hands 
-To be pulled down at chance 


Ripped away by destiny-claws 
Am I another of fate's possessions 
Dwelling the lie of freedom 
Just another straw pulled at random 


Reclaimed by deceiving time 
A silent judgment I can not overrule 


Drawn back into the origin-vortex 
Uprooted and ground to dust 
Retracted into anti-existence 
A magnet repelled by life's polarity 


Denied the self control of fate 
we flow suspended in semi-life 
Until the ever imminent day 
when oblivion claims our breath 


Nowhere indefinitely. Not dead, not alive 
Existence-patterns ripped of symmetry. As will and 
fate divide 


Have I appeased the gods of fate 
Am I allowed another day 
Must I die to escape 
the scanning eyes of death
