I didn’t know
What decision I should make
After the trial —

Where is the truth
In all those lies?

It was blatantly to see
Today —

There is no truth
But a fake identity!

I certainly know
That there is only one decision
And you know, too —

I’m not allowed to say
But if you are on his side
You should pray —

He’s going behind bars
That’s the truth
He’s also fighting his inner wars —

But that’s not our concern
We need to stay firm
On this side of the table
Where the stable and sane
Try to reconstruct a tale
That’s fairy and far from fair
But he doesn’t care anyway —

He’s sitting emotionless
Doesn’t seem to feel any stress —

He only lives in fairytales
That he’s built himself
He lives on sales —

And then he got
To the parking lot
To realize:

That was not a dream
But a nightmare.
