Opium Mit Jaki Liebezeit
Lost in the haze so far away how can we get back home Lost in the haze so far away who's going to guide us home I've struggled to get near it to backwards engineer it But all I find is a smoke and mirrors game The recondite monopolies the airwaves Till all believe there is no other way And this is how we live our lives our opium is televised Till finally they watch us fade away Our lifeless generation is going to the wall A languid demonstration of daze before a fall A preconceived condition imagined long ago But will we ever know all that lies below They'll print it on the front page to synthesis an outrage But all we find is a decoy once again Duplicity and trickery surround us Till all believe there is no other way And this is how we fall asleep their opium is running deep Till finally they watch us fade away Our lifeless generation is going to the wall A languid demonstration of daze before a fall A preconceived condition imagined long ago But will we ever know all that lies below Waiting to play are we the pawns in this game Paving the way watching the kings make their claim Martyrs and spies although we don't realize Falling away under the watch of their eyes SongtexteThis is the way we've chosen to be This is the road that we go down As clear as the day but still we don't see We'll only know when it's over Lost in the haze so far away how can we get back home Lost in the haze so far away who's going to guide us home And this is how our nation died our opium has satisfied And finally they watch us fade away Our lifeless generation is going to the wall A languid demonstration of daze before a fall A preconceived condition imagined long ago Will we ever know all that lies below Lost in the haze so far away how can we get back home Lost in the haze so far away who's going to guide us home Aus Songtexte Mania
