Pain Of Salvation

Pain Of Salvation - Kingdom Of Loss songtekst

Je score:

Someone sells us Toys in a cheap cartoon 

someone sells us Cars in the latest Bond 

that’s coming soon 

someone sells us Trends through a sitcom star 

someone sells Herself in a docu-soap 

that goes too far 

Life on sale 

can someone please just tell me what happened? 

I mean, first we pay for fastfood that will make us all fat and tired 

so then we pay for elevators 

so we won’t have to climb the three stairs up to our aparents 

then we buy freakin’ StairMaster machines 

so we can burn away while watching someone make real food on TV 

now, if that doesn’t make us winners I don’t know what will 

I bet we would hang ourselves, if the world would just cut us the slack 

and now you think maybe you should see a shrink 

help you feel alive again - yeah, that’s a plan 

just tell us who to pay 

someone sells us Man in a White House speech 

then Woman tightly pressed 

between two bouncing breasts on a Baywatch beach 

someone sells us Us everywhere I turn 

then introducing Them 

to earn stock points on our concern 

all for sale 

it’s all for sale... 

welcome down to planet Earth 

please don’t ask us what it’s worth 

you will notice that the world you found 

is slightly tattered and worn down 

someone sold us every stain 

now if you wish to complain 

there’s an open spot at 6 pm 

that’s when Caucasia is listening 

if you’re tearing down my world 

please just try to do it gently... 

there is love inside 

for a dream that has to die 

see, it’s really all about time and choice: 

the fastfood saves us enough time to squeeze lunch in exactly when we want it 

the elevators save us just a little more 

and the StairMaster lets us choose exactly when to walk the stairs 

time is so important these days 

it’s becoming a fucking disease 

and I guess in a way it is 

since it is bound to kill us all in the end 

now with all the time and money we stash away on others’ expense 

I can only assume that the tickets to hell are really expensive 

and for some reason 

it’s important to be first in line 

someone sells us God in 2-for-1 with Shame 

someone sells us War 

and the marketing looks just the same 

someone sells us Fear on TV each day 

a shape for every taste 

if the flavor’s right we gladly pay 

all on sale 

we’re all on sale... 

welcome to the only Earth 

please enjoy your only birth 

you will learn to take more than you give 

buying scars we must live with 

someone sold us every scar 

they somehow made us what we are 

we all want that spot at 6 pm 

but no one is really listening 

no 

not anymore 

we’re all too busy 

buying Sex 

buying War 

oh 

buying Self Confidence 

Security 

Insurance Plans 

just buying More & More 

as you’re tearing down my world 

please just try to do it gently... 

(there’s still love inside for the dream that had to die) 

as you’re tearing down our world..
