Thrust into this competition naked and undone
|
Back to back
|
yet divided on our own
|
Fear breeding fear
|
exploding pressures on
|
we're locked away in self-made chains
|
|
Run out through the windows and into the streets
|
terror abounds as each man lives in fear
|
dread consumes their day
|
the public is passive
|
inactive
|
and lame
|
lock up the doors and let out the wolves
|
a fratricidal race
|
given the chance you'd sit down to eat
|
yet conciousness is sacrificed
|
this alter is never short on heads
|
stare in his eyes
|
your brother - this man
|
yet your fear will breed resentment
|
why can't you say a word?
|
|
Zu Hause wie im Krieg,
|
Waffen und Hass zuhauf
|
|
Casualties of human life drift in the crowds
|
they're standing on the margins - nullified
|
outside the world keeps turning under the sun
|
while inside the sould is boiling over
|
|
This hate for the other is hate for yourself
|
the cancer condition
|
the dead-end ambition
|
you'll eat yourself alive
|
submit to the anger
|
the coming of vengeance
|
the cult of uncaring
|
the chaos of living
|
and face this world alone
|
the hooks in your mouth now you'll swallow the bait
|
distorting your vision
|
you'll drink from their poison
|
so ripened for this fall
|
you take from the worst and give up the best
|
but never forget you're a human being...you breathe
|
but can you think?
|
|
Zu Hause wie im Krieg
|
Waffen und Hass zuhauf
|
in den Kopfen nur Furcht
|
Angst isst die Seele auf
|
|
the truth is something made
|
not something that's found
|
so burn all inhibitions to the ground
|
these politics of dread are a hammer to the head
|
a life of fear is life among the dead...these barriers are built
|
for us to tear them down.
