"Radiant Star" lyrics - TIAMAT

You're an illusion in a world of disillusion,
Gold made from a distant, ancient fusion.
You're the crown of creation as we know it,
But given just a bit more rope and you'll blow it.

I might exaggerate to say this city's burning,
But when you're sleeping safe and sound, the world's still turning.
The trivialities are there to entertain you,
To cozily stop thinking 'bout what they do.

Throw your diamonds down the drain,
You packed the cracked porcelain.
Chain, unchain, the dirt is your domain,
Don't fuck with my brain. [2x]

All wars start in rooms where big men meet,
But are always fought and lost or won on the street.
No one's never gonna start a revolution from bed,
Put your theories to practice and you'll wind up dead.

You've got the freedom to choose what you wanna see,
But the bottom in you is the bottom in me.
The rock might be thrown from many different heights,
But always falls to the same floor through dim red lights.

Throw your diamonds down the drain,
You packed the cracked porcelain.
Chain, unchain, the dirt is your domain,
Don't fuck with my brain. [2x]

Throw your diamonds down the drain,
You packed the cracked porcelain.
Chain, unchain, the dirt is your domain,
Don't fuck with my brain.

Throw your demons down the well,
Where once the brightest angel fell.
Make your wishes, put your spell,
But don't fuck with my hell.
