High Hopes 04:45
Everything changes so fast So restless in movement For life improvement Everyone hopes for the best It's harder to keep up the pace In all directions Without feeling anxious As days fly by in a haze We'll find a way to make it through The darkest times We've got our hopes high For a better life For someone to find A cure for mankind We've got our hopes high For an easy ride Blinded by the light We keep our eyes closed tight We are refining this art Of making excuses To rather be useless Than to play our part Desperate for someone to trust Afraid of decisions We believe politicians Denying mistakes of the past Hope without action is just a dream Mere good intentions won't set us free We'll find a way to make it through The darkest times A miracle is what we wish And so tonight We've got our hopes high For a better life For someone to find A cure for mankind We've got our hopes high For an easy ride Blinded by the light We keep our eyes closed tight Hope without action is just a dream Mere good intentions won't set us free

Clouded vision, blurry eyes Never look up to the skies Ads for breakfast, ads for lunch Picking best of a bad bunch We find comfort in this noise Playing with our shiny toys Definition of the truth Isn't much for us to lose We are led by the hand but our hands are tied Given these simple dreams, we will not decide We will say what they think, we will think what they say And never dare to disobey You will never be alone Just stay inside your comfort zone Move along, don't be afraid All the choices have been made You'll get everything you need To produce, consume and breed Let them care about your health Live your life for someone else We are led by the hand but our hands are tied Given these simple dreams, we will not decide We will say what they think, we will think what they say And never dare to disobey There has to be another way Oh how fortunate we are Living in these times of change Follow the lead and pay close attention To all these handmade celebrity fascinations

Primal Needs 04:03
Sacrifice your life for this Gratify the primal needs This is what you call happiness Lose yourself in this abyss Sacrifice your life for this Gratify the primal needs This is what you call happiness Beg for more down on your knees The only thing you'll ever want Better than anything you've felt before Replace the feelings with a pill An overwhelming rapture at your will It can stop the world from fighting And like an ultimate machine Everyone will be united In this never ending dream Enjoy your ride along this way With little price that you will have to pay The bitter lesson to be learnt The only thing that you will ever want No more hopes, no aspirations Satisfied beyond your needs This is modern great salvation Stand in line to get your fix Sacrifice your life for this Gratify the primal needs This is what you call happiness Lose yourself in this abyss Sacrifice your life for this Gratify the primal needs This is what you call happiness Beg for more down on your knees

Happy Slaves 03:03
Rules are being changed While we are asleep Have we been deranged Has it grown too deep I am a happy slave Until the end of my days I'm marching into a grave With a smile on my face Sinking in this slumber Embracing oblivion Mercifully plundered Softened minds are giving in And as long as the pleasure lasts I will do anything they ask I am a happy slave Until the end of my days I'm marching into a grave With a smile on my face

How many days have passed The tools that we've created and adored Have turned to dust And so the moaning lasts We carry on We are at last Free and awake Clinging to past Built to break These machines will stop and fall apart Taking us back to the start There's nothing left from days long gone Not even memory of glory of a mind Just dead machines And piles of broken dreams We've made of stone Out of the dream Silent and sad Suddenly clean Of copper and lead These machines will stop and fall apart Taking us back to the start These machines will stop and fall apart Taking us back to the start In this new life every second counts So from now on when we are in doubt We'll remember crashing down the slope Of inaction and holding on to hope These machines will stop and fall apart We will see at last who we really are
