Thrust into this competition naked and undone

Back to back

yet divided on our own

Fear breeding fear

exploding pressures on

we're locked away in self-made chains



Run out through the windows and into the streets

terror abounds as each man lives in fear

dread consumes their day

the public is passive

inactive

and lame

lock up the doors and let out the wolves

a fratricidal race

given the chance you'd sit down to eat

yet conciousness is sacrificed

this alter is never short on heads

stare in his eyes

your brother - this man

yet your fear will breed resentment

why can't you say a word?



Zu Hause wie im Krieg,

Waffen und Hass zuhauf



Casualties of human life drift in the crowds

they're standing on the margins - nullified

outside the world keeps turning under the sun

while inside the sould is boiling over



This hate for the other is hate for yourself

the cancer condition

the dead-end ambition

you'll eat yourself alive

submit to the anger

the coming of vengeance

the cult of uncaring

the chaos of living

and face this world alone

the hooks in your mouth now you'll swallow the bait

distorting your vision

you'll drink from their poison

so ripened for this fall

you take from the worst and give up the best

but never forget you're a human being...you breathe

but can you think?



Zu Hause wie im Krieg

Waffen und Hass zuhauf

in den Kopfen nur Furcht

Angst isst die Seele auf



the truth is something made

not something that's found

so burn all inhibitions to the ground

these politics of dread are a hammer to the head

a life of fear is life among the dead...the
