Dark Tranquility Format C: For Cortex Lyrics

Format C: For Cortex Lyrics

Mental Blindfolds on

Early on the fascination intense

How to discern just where right belongs



Something has got to give

These things I just don't want you to see



There is no need for you to start revolutions

I don't want you to talk to the minions

Just show me a brand new face

an open mind against a dying race



Something has got to give

These things I just don't want you to hear/feel



Cannot fail in this the era of losers

burnt the shell of those that once held the torches

Cannot give you the senses anew

nor will you know innocence again



Something has got to give

These things I just don't want you to know



in time all your questions will be answered

not what you hoped for, not what you dreamed

all preconceptions crumble



Something has got to give

These things I just don't want you to learn



Won't hold up to the standards you keep

never came from the formative years

Just show me a brand new mind

Keep in what you left behind



Something has got to give

These things I just don't want you to be
