imperium of waste

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?
