So Many Others

Self-righteous justification, spreading cross the nation
Being high, gets us by, so many others die
Light has shone, on the phone, heart made of stone
We all should have known, it all has been shown

I need not tell you. Our system is due
For reflection, rejection, immediate action
Who knows what's new and who knows what's fuckin true
And who the hell are you, anyway
To tell me what to do and to say
It will not go away.

Why should we leave - mediocrity
What's out there to win - global competition
Days go by, as we fly. So many others die

Cynical resignation, the spaceship left it's station. Long ago.
Clinical celebration, a constant aberration of
What we held high. So many others die
Die unknown, all alone, as flesh falls from bone
We all should have known, it all has been shown

Why should we leave - inhumanity
What can we win - illumination
Standing by, as they cry, so many others die

And who the hell are you, anyway
To tell me what to do and to say
And who knows what it´s true anyway
It will not go away

Why should we leave - inconsistency
What's left to win - fertile benediction
Time goes by, live a lie, so many others die
