Long time ago the seed was laid For fear and hate To dominate By selfisness and Ruthless egoism It's almost impossible to believe your own eyes Yes we choose them As our leaders Gave them power Now the whole world is on it's knees before you. Needing a savior But still you are too blind to see Nothing but your own glory As the disaster becomes a norm Behold emperors new clothes Nation divided Scars run deep Nothing left to believe Discontent like a disease Feels so familiar To get deceived With empty promises And endless enemies Now face the reality They had never but their own interest in their minds Now the whole world is on it's knees before you. Needing a savior But still you are too blind to see Nothing but your own glory As the disaster becomes a norm Behold emperors new clothes Is this the way? we want to take? We must take back what's ours! Now the whole nation has risen to riot all against you. But still you are too blind to see Nothing but your own glory As the disaster becomes a norm Behold emperors new clothes

Swallowed by the darkness For most of the year Drowned by stress at work meds don't feel sincere But the company of the bottle Therapy we all know No wonder that we have a word For getting drunk alone We are known as silent And we keep ourselves modest But there is plenty of violence In relationships to be honest Our corruption and sorrow Doesn't always meet the eye when grief gets overwhelming We take our lives It's jackpot to be born In the happiest country in the world So declares the UN's report For the third time in a row I wish i could feel the same or Even witness it around But honestly this all just feels Like another pr stunt No greeting between neighbors Low wages for the labor Our system seems to favor Rich leeches without honor Some say the key to our joy Is low population so some want to close the boarders From all the refugees But after all Don't forget where you are from But after all This is the place where i belong It's jackpot to be born In the happiest country in the world So declares the UN's report For the third time in a row I wish i could feel the same or even witness it around But honestly this all just feels Like another pr stunt

Treehouse 05:41
From an old treehouse – I found a child Who wore frayed clothes on his skinny bones From the shade of light, he looked me in the eyes Told me not to worry: “He’ll come get me before the bedtime story” Boy told me a tale About a stranger who came “A new land, full of riches” - he had said And so, the man had left under the stranger's shade He had eaten those lies To fulfill the needs of life He sought a way to hide Regret weighing inside He had fed those lies To escape the fears of mind Invent the gear of all times Change the stage of life By chasing those tales And painting those frames The footpaths of the mind, slowly crumbled away By catching those tales And looking through those frames He realized, there had been a smirk on the stranger’s face Leaning on a decaying wall Boy crossed his arms over his knees Told me not to worry: “He’ll come get me before his bedtime story” In an old treehouse – there was a man
