lyrics

I want to get out of here
I can not see it anymore
How you live your life
How you act and denounce
Can not bear your lifestyle
Once and for all
Don't even ask
What's behind
Disgusting to me

I want to break out, just get out, impossible to unfurl
Have enough of everything that embodies your stupid world
Just want to be me without being recognized
Questions how I feel now mostly apparent now

Rules to preserve the appearance
No one even dares to ask
Manipulation
You gonna mind - you propagate
Even studied in colleges
Put the mob into its place
Bachelors and Masters preach doubtful success

This is a life in depression
When I see them today
We know the goal of your game
So we go through your fight
There I saw preparation
What I ever want to hear
We all circle the grave
What's that for
Always the same
Always the same

Like blind sheep following every given task
But I won't compete
Won't be a part of all of it
The disrespectful looks always take me down
And almost play the same game
That's what sets me off

I want to break out, just get out, impossible to unfurl
Have enough of everything that embodies your stupid world
Just want to be me without being recognized
Questions how I feel now mostly apparent now

Humiliate - push ‘em on - lead ‘em down
Business all day
Set them off
Forced and blamed

Forced theory about practice
Hierarchies and wrested
Worker's rights, fewest ask
That's what actually happens

True is our minds are massacred
For those who have questions
They lead a black list to sort ‘em out
In which you count as a threat
Mouth shut
You're dead
