we're drowning in anger
we're rotten by the truth
we're embittered slaves
we're losing our youth
failure is always
the best way to learn
and the evidence that
we forget what we've learnt
beauty is just a dream
science is just a shame
smiling is just a strain
living is just a pain
I'm fed up being afraid
I'm fed up being a shade
my tears are drying out
my strength begins to fade
if knowledge means suffering
if truth reveals a lie
if white turns into black
I'll leave and never come back
happy depression
beautiful decay
healthy sickness
wonderful life
