I´m down but not out My back against the ropes Energy and sanity is draining from me Patience backfires into punishment Punishing the soul – suffocating Crying out – gasping for air
Struggling forward in a race with no end No rest in sight though the darkness descends I´ve become a machine within a system of pain No escape, no way out - I´m a slave
There´s no humanity Just ruthless conformity Increasing complexity
Living dead in these days that never end Walking through the flames to transcend Clenching my fist Upon survival insist Days without end No mercy given As the madness descends
Stand in line to get fucked in the head Severe exhaustion - hanging on by a thread Time is never on my side anyway No need to worry - I can sleep in the grave
Trials and tribulation Work ethic humiliation Feudal structure confirmation
Living dead in these days that never end Walking through the flames to transcend Clenching my fist Upon survival insist Days without end No mercy given As the madness descends
Day after day fly before my eyes All merge into a black grain Arrested freedom of the inner child Slave within a system of pain
