lyrics

It would be a simple chance in life for you and me and finally. We could be so satisfied but we can’t stop pretending blind. The shape of my thoughts just makes me sick. A generation died by suicide. Always been pretending blind. We turned away and never mind. The weight of the problems we have in this world is still increasing. But then again the holy man is a villain. For what it’s worth? A million! It’s easy to leave when nothing can fix our situation. Where we are strong and never weak. In my imagination. Doesn't feel right but you will never do something to change the life around your skin. Now feel alright It’s more easy to run and hide. Doesn't feel right but you will never do something to change the life around your skin. Now feel alright we are safe here just keep it quiet. Doesn't feel right but you will never do something to change the life around your skin. Now feel alright It’s more easy to run and hide. Don’t feel alright! But still the reason is the reason. We can’t stop pretending blind.
