"In Vain" lyrics

Anonymity guides us through
Days so grey and cold - into obscurity
We're all of of a kind - obsolete
We feel useless and old

But we carry on
Struggling for acceptance
Begging for tolerance
Without any result
Always feeling like
We're the dysfunction
Of our environment
Of our own existence

One by one we fall
Into oblivion
It's just another step
Into nothingness
And things we endure
Lead us closer to the edge
The edge of a deep abyss
When it comes down to it, it was all in vain

So careless - so ruthless
Inconsiderate
Without any result

And can we ever change
Can we ever abandon
This fatal situation - escape from the scourge
One in a billion - left alone
Here to perish - born to die
Sentence of death

Birth starts our life - death ends our life
Yet nothing happens in between
Hypnotized by a perennial strife - an infinite trap
Which end is nowhere to be seen

After all we carry on
Still struggling for acceptance
Still begging for tolerance
Without any result
Always sensing the malady
The dullness of life
Unaware of the antidote
That could be the cure

One by one we fall
Into oblivion
It's just another step
Into nothingness
And things we endure
Lead us closer to the edge
The edge of a deep abyss
When it comes down to it, it was all in vain
