Fail

No surprise this morning
As usual I woke up again to a world that kills itself
Repetitively with no shame or fear
The papers were telling me as always
In burning red colors that it′s everywhere I'll go

An eternal loop of slavery, murder, rape, corruption and wars
Same old story in colored versions of death, death, death
As if we are doomed, sucked and being smoked
From far beyond by a dead star, a black hole
An endless appetite that swallows our light
And wants nothing but more and more, and more

Yes I am too the fuel that feeds this machine
This vast engine of destruction that takes our lives
Our souls and our freedom
And what other choices do I have
In a society that educates me to be stupid

I am brainwashed like a sheep
So that every liar with a sip of charisma
Can easily turn himself into my shepherd
So, here I am, sitting like a fairy princess, waiting for her Messiah
While happiness is everywhere except here and now
And we all keep on hanging onto our hopes
While the storm still rages inside

Slippery tongues fork from my screen
Spewing such lies in the name of the green
They play the game of thrones ′til one wins
The rule of one liar ends, another begins

So why do we fail to see
And why in this jail are we
Living our life with the threat of fire
We're losing again all to this mire

Money tied with power, war and bloodlust
They'll spend our money until none of it lasts
They′ll send our sons to war to die for a God
That they use as a coin to barter for blood (oh-oh, oh-oh)

"Yes sir, no sir" – can I go home now?
Your thirst for blood has lost me somehow
I was young when they took me
I am a young man no more
As they used me and threw me like the army′s last whore

A children's crusade – we are brothers in arms
A multitude of fools like a rain of falling stars
We walk the road to war while they smoke their cigars
Like a serpent forever feed on its tail
This cycle of death goes on forever again

And again
And again
And again
And again

And again
And again
And again
And again
