Vacuum
The yesterday we loved
Speak of tomorrow
The burden of man is that
Time never takes a pause
We live from Monday to Sunday
But we forget what it means
Then a ghost comes to visit and
We tell stories from tabloids
Call all your friends
Watch fake photos
From a made up vacations
Speaking in tongues
About ancient artefacts
We steal from beggars
And ask for understanding
Lie, rape, steal and murder
To make tonight’s headlines
Trust the system
Make your contribution
Smile, applaud, love, hail
The weaker you get
The stronger they become
Listen in silence
Hear her voice
How far are we ready to take this?
Listen in silence
Hear her voice
Before it all crumbles
Lie, rape, steal and murder
Smile, applaud, love, hail
Gather in front of the TV
Exploding sympathy
The weatherman, our trust
Our punctual company
We steal from beggars
And ask for understanding
Lie, rape, steal and murder
To make tonight’s headlines
Trust the system
Make your contribution
Smile, applaud, love, hail
The weaker you get the
Stronger they become
Listen in silence
Hear her voice
How far are we ready to take this?
Listen in silence
Hear her voice
Before it all crumbles
Lie, rape, steal and murder
Smile, applaud, love, hail
