Lyrics of ' Dualism ' by Aesthetic Empathy

Dualism

Child:
I remember beauty and a world of worthy
Goals that meant all you are
I remember sun rays so honest on my face
and all the love in my arms

Smiles, I kept them with me
The trust in all the good of this world
Friends, they walk within me
Old man, look at what you've lost

I shall deny you
with a piece of love
I shall deny you
with a piece of hope
I shall deny you
with honesty on my face
I shall deny you
with truth tagged on my name
I shall deny you
with care burned on my hands
I shall deny you
with sympathy in my eyes
I shall deny you

For the open arms I stay
I will remain against the fear

For the trust of the memory
of hands spread to embrace my whole being with warmth

For a world of mine I will stay denying
all that you are
For a life of trying I will teach denying
of all that you are

Old Cynic:
I remember rain with all the shame
and mocking laughter at me
I remember betrayal and all the sails
burned on mantrusting seas

I shall deny you
with a piece of flesh
I shall deny you
with a piece of hate
I shall deny you
with lies told to my face
I shall deny you
with contempt on my name
I shall deny you
with lust burned on their hands
I shall deny you
with apathy in their eyes
I shall deny you

I'm a tired man of moving mountains
so a child could pretend that all is well
I'm a tired man of taking judgement
for the trust of a child's imagination

I seek loss of memory of men and their humble ways
For the broken arms I stay 'till the end of days

Me:
Be silent!
both of you know nothing
I'm here to teach peace between you two
I need you both so I could seek perfection
I need you both so I could feel complete
