I watched them as they tried to argue
the scientist and the muslimic student
just a casual event, he read this book from rushdie
"A blashemous book", cried the student
"No, it`s not a religious tractat, it`s a tale of fiction !"
"You don`t understand !
The form doesn`t matter, he spits in our faces
consulting Allah, nothing is sacred !"

REFRAIN (2X)
I`m not listening to your words
I`m just trying to get through to you

"Oh, but I believe in the liberty of sreech !"
"Then why did you demonstrate against the fascists ?"
"I just tried to save our freedom and your rights"
"But you deny them their point of view
your belief of freedom, it isn`t absolutely
you may have a belief, but you are no believer !"
"Are you more precious with regard to your god ?"
- in the end I had to cease their struggle -

REFRAIN (2X)

to get through you

It`s the war in our head that keeps us separated
we always trade the tools to the ones full of hate
know all their motives - drown them in the gutter
they`re expendable - so we can exploit them

REFRAIN
one - war machine
two - bolt thrower
three - shotgun burst
four - in you face
-----------------
one - aim load fire
two - bursts of Willy Pete
three - hand grenades
four - napalm fuck

turks against kurdes - a positive cash influx
russian armies marching - send `em a few tanks
chechnian separatists - they also need out weapons
only one thing`s for sure: the war must last forever

REFRAIN

LIVING IN THE COLD (4X)

Truth does not exist
in any written book
just shut up and

don`t you look at me
to tell you what to do
listen to yourself

I may often fail
but I know what`s right
in my heart of hearts

this boring little plan
that you have made for me
is just a piece of scrap

rules do not exist
that can lead my way
you can watch me leave
- HEAD THE VOICE FROM DEEP WITHIN -
can`t you hear it too ?
do you speak too loud ?
may it be too late ?
- HEAD THE VOICE FROM DEEP WITHIN -
I see you talking back
"This can`t be allowed
you`re insulting us !"
- HEAD THE VOICE FROM DEEP WITHIN -
but I can only laugh
at your ways to try
to turn down my words
- HEAD THE VOICE FROM DEEP WITHIN -

REFRAIN (4X)
too late, too late for me
for me, too blind to see
too late, too late for me
for me, too blind to see

truth does not exist
in any written book
just shut up and
- HEAD THE VOICE FROM DEEP WITHIN -
don`t you look at me
to tell you what to do
listen to yourself
- HEAD THE VOICE FROM DEEP WITHIN -
I may often fail
but I know what`s right
in my heart of hearts
- HEAD THE VOICE FROM DEEP WITHIN -
life does not exist
in a unique shape
I`ll build my own fate

- HEAD THE VOICE FROM DEEP WITH -
- HEAD THE VOICE FROM DEEP WITH -
- HEAD THE VOICE FROM DEEP WITHIN -

You say there`s nothing up your sleeve
I see your incredible greed
your heart, replaced by a machine
so fat that it`s a travesty

BRIDGE
living in your wealth
preying like a beast
obscene luxury
yearly transfusions

you were so often lifted up
faded: your ability to smile
sicknes awaits you everywhere
a contaminating despair

BRIDGE

REFRAIN (2X)
take no risk, play it safe
do the dance, step by step
symmetry of decadence

endless seems your boring life
antiseptik like your heart
life in a sealed environment
sterilization is a must

BRIDGE

REFRAIN (2X)

Even if I could cry all all my problems out
nobody listen listen to my words

CHORUS
God - help - pray - for - me
lost - my - head - it - hurts - tortured - me

I pray to you, dear lord, to cleanse me of my sins
`cause I`m feeling tainted and rotten from within
nothing seems to make sense and nothing gives me strength
I have lost all my values, my honour and my pride

I once thought that we could win
this war, that poisons our land
with all my enemies`scalps
I would return to my home

feeling less heroic now
now that I have raped and killed
instead I`m living with fear
and hear the screams of the dead

would you please forgive that I have burned their homes
would you give absolution to my laughter then?
and can you tell me one thing: am I still quite sane?
now that I`m crawling here, eating my excrements

CHORUS
God - help - pray - for - me
lost - my - head - it - hurts - tortured - me

Can`t believe it: his dead eyes
a victim of your lust
unlike Ödipus you did know
these children are in pain

REFRAIN
a strange urge to fuck each other
came upon you and your mother
in absence of your father
she gave you your first fuck

the result of dumbness
in mind and in body
a creature as you are !?!

REFRAIN

your hate is rejected
he learns what you did then

CHORUS
In-cest In-cest

WHO PAYS
