2. No Trust
so, come here now, you!
this is soul school, so,
let's see what you've learned!
so strong outside,
so thin inside,
fear is always with you.
we fight forever,
we die forever,
the fortune teller says.
looking out I see,
no trust poisons me
and my own free will.
no trust I search and find in you!...
no trust I see when I talk to you!...
working, pushing,
you're paying, slaving,
there's no more playing time.
you're acting, pacing,
you're barely breathing,
you're rushing, scrambling your life.
we're telling, selling,
we're lying, faking,
our words are meaningless.
so, take this torture you,
misfit mortal, you,
superhuman cult!
self-taught songs we sew,
we're gonna get paid at the show, you know,
some thought we'd never get this far.
see you standing there,
you better step off, we're coming through.
this, see-saw, you better not let go.
has no trust got you lost?
it might be time to change your thoughts,
we're gonna go down in history for this.
you said you believed, but
where were you when the songs were seeds?
you said you put all your trust in me...
liar!...
liar!...
this is soul school, so,
let's see what you've learned!
so strong outside,
so thin inside,
fear is always with you.
we fight forever,
we die forever,
the fortune teller says.
looking out I see,
no trust poisons me
and my own free will.
no trust I search and find in you!...
no trust I see when I talk to you!...
working, pushing,
you're paying, slaving,
there's no more playing time.
you're acting, pacing,
you're barely breathing,
you're rushing, scrambling your life.
we're telling, selling,
we're lying, faking,
our words are meaningless.
so, take this torture you,
misfit mortal, you,
superhuman cult!
self-taught songs we sew,
we're gonna get paid at the show, you know,
some thought we'd never get this far.
see you standing there,
you better step off, we're coming through.
this, see-saw, you better not let go.
has no trust got you lost?
it might be time to change your thoughts,
we're gonna go down in history for this.
you said you believed, but
where were you when the songs were seeds?
you said you put all your trust in me...
liar!...
liar!...
