Long Live the Misanthrope - Soilwork

Where’s the notion

That I will 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

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

The misanthrope lives on

Through the burning sun

A champion for the ages

The hatred lives on

The world goes numb

A provocateur of life

You won’t affect me

I’m in control

When I take the role of the

Misanthrope

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
