"Imperium Of Waste" lyrics
I can't believe you chose to be
This paranoid shell of a citizen
Compliant to authority
And demands of fear and war
Did you choose to pimp what could be left
In your heart to the annihilation of love
And change in time
Love and change in time
Where's the reason?
Where's the liberty?
Do we tie ourselves to this game
Out of fear or our false idea of power?
Whispered in the ear
Are you sleeping?
Are you waiting for some compromise?
Is their vision hidden in our eyes?
Hidden in our eyes
Do you ask yourself in dreams
And in the dying hours of working days
What does this system want from me?
It's no surprise they try to take
Over our actions and our anger
With each fashion cult on the hanger
Sacred distractions
But we can only fool ourselves
For so long
Where's the reason?
Where's the liberty?
Do we tie ourselves to this game
Out of fear or our false idea of power?
Whispered in the ear
Are you sleeping?
Are you waiting for some compromise?
Is their longing hidden in our eyes?
There is a pulse beating under this life
There is a pulse beating under this life
Our generation
Suffocation
First world
Minute to hour
Oil tanker and tower
I won't detonate this minefield
For your false idea of power
Where's the reason?
Where's the liberty?
Do we tie ourselves to this game
Out of fear or our false idea of power?
Whispered in the ear
Are you sleeping?
Are you waiting for some compromise?
Is their vision hidden in our
Hidden in our
Hidden in our eyes?
This paranoid shell of a citizen
Compliant to authority
And demands of fear and war
Did you choose to pimp what could be left
In your heart to the annihilation of love
And change in time
Love and change in time
Where's the reason?
Where's the liberty?
Do we tie ourselves to this game
Out of fear or our false idea of power?
Whispered in the ear
Are you sleeping?
Are you waiting for some compromise?
Is their vision hidden in our eyes?
Hidden in our eyes
Do you ask yourself in dreams
And in the dying hours of working days
What does this system want from me?
It's no surprise they try to take
Over our actions and our anger
With each fashion cult on the hanger
Sacred distractions
But we can only fool ourselves
For so long
Where's the reason?
Where's the liberty?
Do we tie ourselves to this game
Out of fear or our false idea of power?
Whispered in the ear
Are you sleeping?
Are you waiting for some compromise?
Is their longing hidden in our eyes?
There is a pulse beating under this life
There is a pulse beating under this life
Our generation
Suffocation
First world
Minute to hour
Oil tanker and tower
I won't detonate this minefield
For your false idea of power
Where's the reason?
Where's the liberty?
Do we tie ourselves to this game
Out of fear or our false idea of power?
Whispered in the ear
Are you sleeping?
Are you waiting for some compromise?
Is their vision hidden in our
Hidden in our
Hidden in our eyes?
