Dia hidup dalam pemborosan
void of culture and taste
kekosongan budaya dan rasa
his eye on a prize beyond
mata pada hadiah di luar
His every word
Setiap kata
is in the right place
berada di tempat yang tepat
but his word is not his bond
tapi kata-katanya bukan ikatannya
His face his comely
Wajahnya cantik
his heart it bleeds
hatinya berdarah
yet it’s but a mantle he has donned
namun itu hanyalah sebuah mantel yang telah dia kenakan
Mark him only
Tandai dia saja
by his deeds
dengan perbuatannya
for his word is not his bond
karena firman-Nya bukan ikatannya
I’d love to take him
Aku ingin membawanya
out of his room
keluar dari kamarnya
and gently break him
dan dengan lembut hancurkan dia
I’d love to see
Saya ingin melihat
him
dia
dance !
menari!
His protege deals
Transaksi anak didiknya
in confusion and fog
dalam kebingungan dan kabut
Of power he is fond
Kekuatan yang dia sukai
Wheels within wheels
Keadaan rumit
– like master, like dog
– seperti master, seperti anjing
His word is not his bond
Firman-Nya bukan ikatannya
I’m trying to swim
Aku sedang mencoba untuk berenang
but I’m caught in the shallows
tapi aku tertangkap basah
and I sense that I’ve been conned
dan saya merasa bahwa saya telah ditipu
Deliver him
Lepaskan dia
…to the gallows !
… ke tiang gantungan!
His word is not his bond
Firman-Nya bukan ikatannya
