Philistine City
[M&L - M. Kiske] On our long uneasy way Never there, never stay We please ourselves, eat ourselves It gets us through the day Maybe we should pray `cos we all are gonna pay For the arrows for others That we shoot up today All senses are numb, The candle grows cold In questioning hours All answers are sold The bitter taste on your tongue You wash it down with some cheap fun The arrow cuts deeper The cheating gets done I don't know! Deep down within - we all feel the sin From darkness we raise - but it still hurts them too We all save our piece - just begging: oh, please Make it go away - all thinking `bout those who freeze outhere SongtexteIt's a myth when we say: Give love It's meaningless, meaningless Sounds like the croak of frogs We preach out in the blue But never change anything we do Our words have no weight And our wisdom won't do I don't believe In your american dream No more, no way It's all not what it seems We always hear them pray Thanking the lord for the money days And the anger grows stronger In those who failed the play I don't know! Deep down within - we all feel the sin From darkness we raise - but it still hurts them too We all save our piece - just begging: oh, please Make it go away - all thinking `bout those who bleed outhere Changing colors, changing facades, Changing fashions, changing masquerades. New generations, oh! with whole new conceptions. So it won't go away that caricature of man. Aus Songtexte Mania
