Death As a Privilege Songtext

Death As a Privilege Songtext
It′s the beginning and the end
The alpha and omega of all this shit
I'm nobody, one of many, you will not see my face under the mask
My face became a mask
And mask became my face
I say, forget about death, there is only the future, so be the best
But somewhere inside, someone whispers -
Do you want to live like that?
Drink your pills, eat, and smile
You can′t be sad and tired
It's bad form, and you don't want to be different from others
But somewhere inside there was a doubt
Under the press of the megapolis
People are just ants here, so empty and vain
Thousand floors up or down
Want to get to Olympus?
But no pain, no gain
Become one of the celestials
You′re an immortal privileged class
Among these beautiful faces
You′re like a fish in water
Their only fear is age
Their nightmare is death
And here every one is afraid to grow up
Old people in young skin, they've thousand years as a backup
They do not remember those below to live out their days
Praise whores and thieves as gods, but they are just a slaves
Like you, like me, but for all should be a fee
I don′t need this future
Drink your pills, eat, and smile
You can't be sad and tired
It′s bad form, and you don't want to be different from others
But somewhere inside there was a doubt
They wrinkle their noses, just feeling the smell of death
And running headlong from there
It is the beginning and the end
The alpha and omega of all this shit
Take away your immortality, it is not for me
Not at this price, now you see
I want to live, I′m sick of your false beauty
It's all fake
I woke up as if from sleep
Just death always drives us to use the life
Throw your pills, live the present
They said, make a choice, but it's empty words
I don′t need this future
Their only fear is age
Their nightmare is death
And here everyone is afraid to grow up
Old people in young skin, they′ve thousand years as a backup
They do not remember those below to live out their days
Here praise whores and thieves as gods, but they are just a slaves
Like you, like me, but for all should be a fee
I don't need this future
Praise whores and thieves as gods, but they are just a slaves
Like you, like me, but for all should be a fee
I don′t need this future
The alpha and omega of all this shit
I'm nobody, one of many, you will not see my face under the mask
My face became a mask
And mask became my face
I say, forget about death, there is only the future, so be the best
But somewhere inside, someone whispers -
