Album: Acts (1992)

Paralized


We’re not informed, manipulated by well selected truth
We shouldn’t see, shouldn’t hear it, it might disturb our sleep
They’re casting TV-games, live is but a game-show
Daily lullabies, the newest one's called desert hunt

Let’s see if we can beat the high-score bonus points for every thousand dead shot Arabs
Paralized, we don’t know what’s going on
Paralized we can’t change it anyway

Clear the news so we can see the world thought your eyes
Clean and brave, in your war's no place for dying

Paralized, we don’t know what’s going on
Paralized we can’t change it anyway

He was good enough to act as your cat’s-paw
In his fratricidal war, just a means to an end
Now it's too late, you fought fire with fire
And you still feed the flames.
Ain’t you scared to burn yourself?
