Ignorance

We celebrate ourselves And take the deepest fall When everything seems perfect We drop and lose it all Neverending stories Of faith and lies and passion Memories are blocked Suppressed by pure obsession Running in circles Figures in a game Puppets bound to strings No one is to blame Why do we believe in love? Why do we forget so fast? Why do we trust each other? Why do we ignore the past? Pretending ignorance Fool yourself and others Though we know the truth behind it all We're not tired to discover In the end we find ourselves Brought down to earth again One should think this is enough But we move on and take the pain Running in circles Figures in a game Puppets bound to strings No one is to blame Why do we believe in love? Why do we forget so fast? Why do we trust each other? Why do we ignore the past? (© lyrics by Dirk Merzbach)
