A Thousand Narrators Songtext
von Ledmotiv

I don′t know how it came to this
And I don't know where it ends
Just when I thought I was all alone
It seems that I have made some undesirable friends

My biggest fear is plurality
My deepest grudge can′t come true
The power within the author's hand
Divided among all the lesser minds who attempts

Peace of mind can no longer be granted

I have to fill up these pages
Long as I'm in control
No one′s gonna flaw this diamond
No one word shall spoil

Fool you are and fool you remain
Can′t you see our influence
Already maneuvering the ink out of your pen

No. No! This can't be


Johnny isn′t that your name
And who am I inside your brain
The one you need, a friend indeed
Here to keep you sane

I'm your conscience. Does it hurt?
Letting down both Mark and earth
Now you live with me, can′t you see
Your actions gave me birth

I'm your servant, aren′t we all
A reflection on the silver wall
I'm this alien you'd share the earth with
I replied your call

I′m the heart of your endeavor
The diary, the living letter
I am reason, I am seizing
Power of what stands forever

Take your words elsewhere you′re not welcome
Oh yes we are. You've summoned us here. Now you cannot force us out
This one narrator face this all alone
Oh John you′re not living through it
Get out of my head
I'll never show you acceptance


You′ll show your love to us
No no
You'll put your faith into us
No never

In this Apollo I am the king
You′re a puppet, pretty puppet
In this Apollo I am everything
Cannot stop it pretty puppet
In this Apollo who's pulling strings
We're not puppets, you′re the puppet
In this Apollo you don′t exist
We are here we are there

You must not take me
To our level
After this anguish don't break me
Isn′t it clever
I've suffered enough

No peace in wake, nightmares in sleep
No more silence, never silence
Found peace in death, Mark whom I envy
We′re your guidance, your alliance
This paranoia I cannot stand
Johnny's bitter, Johnny withers
And without him near me, I see no end
You can′t possibly consider

I am in charge
What's he saying
And I say we bring in Mark
Just obey him
Retrieved from the dark
Brought back into the light
You'll risk all of our lives
Companions till we die
Are you out of your mind?
Welcome home
To repent your sins
To be burned again

You′re not taking any part of me
Let′s call to earth and abuse them
No you don't
Everyone must pay the price

No! Stop ruining the legacy
What legacy? Nobody cares
My legacy, I will not have perished fruitlessly
Nobody will find out
Don′t tell
What little chance is there now
Don't tell me what are the odds of me dropping down on a planet full of life?
Not very high
Shut up

Nobody else will write in this diary, and nobody except
ME will temper with MY brain! So get out!

And lend Mark and his brilliance
A reward for what he′d give us
No return, no recovery
Is this a hero's deed? It′s a villain's

And with Nasa it's the same
Not deserving of their name
Let′s clear it out wherever it′s spelled
Rip it from every single page

No you cannot
Oh yes we can
We're a legion, you′re just a man
A diary with more than a thousand narrators
This is too much fun

Mark was the failing source
Let his spirit feel remorse
Let the carnage take its rightful place
Let us feast upon his corpse

Get out, get out, get out of my head.

Johnny. I think it is time for you to reunite with your old friend. Yes your old friend.

No. Not anymore. I'm not gonna let you do anything to him.

It seems you have no choice, and besides, aren′t you feeling... hungry?

You can't make me do this. I′m the one in control
You are not even real. I'm what's real.

Not even real? Haha!
We′re just as real as the farewell call you made to your fellow earthlings.

Or maybe you were just talking to us the whole time.

I don′t believe any of this. I won't!

Enough talk! Let′s prepare the feast

Nononono...

Now lean forward, and feast!
