Long Live the Misanthrope

Lyrics

[Intro] Yeah...! [Verse 1] Where's the notion That I would be left out? I wish you'd take me away with you I know I cursed you I know I had no doubt That all of you were the thorns of life [Verse 2] Misanthropic tendencies I was the one who could never believe You broke my trust, all was lost You're all the same to me I made peace with solitude A farcical interlude The wrath made me a lonely soul [Verse 3] The misanthrope lives on Through the burning sun A champion for the ages (Ages) The hatred lives on The world goes numb A provocateur of life [Pre-Chorus] You won't affect me I'm in control When I take the role of the Misanthrope [Chorus] A well of emotion Taking you back I won't be shaped 'Cause it never, ever lasts Leave me alone Give me no words to keep No familiarity And I won't be deceived [Verse 1] Where's the notion That I would be left out? I wish you'd take me away with you I know I cursed you I know I had no doubt That all of you were the thorns of life [Verse 2] Misanthropic tendencies I was the one who could never believe You broke my trust, all was lost You're all the same to me I made peace with solitude A farcical interlude The wrath made me a lonely soul [Verse 3] The misanthrope lives on Through the burning sun A champion for the ages (Ages) The hatred lives on The world goes numb A provocateur of life [Pre-Chorus] You won't affect me I'm in control When I take the role of the Misanthrope You won't affect me I'm in control When I take the role of the Misanthrope [Chorus] A well of emotion Taking you back I won't be shaped 'Cause it never, ever lasts Leave me alone Give me no words to keep No familiarity And I won't be deceived [Guitar Solo 1: Sylvain Coudret] [Guitar Solo 2: David Andersson] [Chorus] A well of emotion Taking you back I won't be shaped 'Cause it never, ever lasts Leave me alone Give me no words to keep No familiarity And I won't be deceived [Instrumental Outro]
