lyrics

we are all scared
we are all fucked
dreaming of better lives
we will never have

while enemy approaches slowly
we burn, friendly fire only
world is getting cold
and this elegy seems old

while one admires what second build
third covers it with iron and the glass
enjoying profit, hoping it lasts while fourth is building an army

fifth is planning a robbery
bought himself another rat bakery
and I signed myself to just … bravery
sold myself to another year of slavery

there´s too much beauty in this world
but aint got time for that!

cuz the world is so heavy and I cant keep carrying it with all the worries they feed me with
and life is so heavy but I can keep tasting it with all the shit you people throw at me.

serve me the dinner that was already served
take the money I´ve earned
but I won’t be
breathing the smell of rotten dreams
between iron and the glass - fake laughs and desperate screams.

fighting this fucking battle everyday
but still don’t wanna be patronized for a national hero
cuz im just another one or zero

and I wanna be erased
cuz I feel embarrassed.

I realize my life is flying by and im not afraid to die
I realize my life is flying by and I am, ready to die
