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.
