Paradox
HELLWEED Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Force just met an immovable object
And you ruin everything
A taste of grudge in your actions
Bane my eternal flame
You don't try
You don't follow
You don't fucking care
Why can't you set me free?
Please, my friend, save me
Begone!
I can't change your roots
Begone!
So immovable
Put me down below the bottom
And you'll ruin everything
A disbelieve in your questions
Reflects infernal pain
You don't try
You don't follow
You don't fucking care
Why can't you set me free?
Please, my friend, save me
Begone!
I can't change your roots
Begone!
So immovable
You have no fucking guts
You'll never try to change your rules




You will never be one of us
You're not so unstoppable
