How Did We Get There? Songtext
von Last Train

All those cages we built up are now quite small
Enough to arouse the worst
It led to nothing
But hate and loathing

Romances and tales have been replaced by scandals and hear says
The weight of our words
Speculation
As sweet salvation

We surrendered our devils and our gods
We took a chance and shaped the fate of the world
We finally did get there
How did we get there?

(I can′t stand this world no more)
(I can't stand this world anymore)
(I can′t stand this world no more)
(I can't stand this world)


I can't stand this world no more
I can′t stand this world anymore
No, no, no, I can′t stand this world no more
I can't stand this world no more

I can′t stand this world no more
I can't stand this world no more
Oh, no breaking, I can′t stand this world anymore
(I can't stand this world no more)

I can′t stand this world no more
Baby, baby, I can't stand this world anymore
No, no, no, I can't stand this world no more
Oh, I can′t stand this world

Tell me, when did we start
To care about what′s meaningless
And settle down in a mess like this?
We're half awake in an aimless scrolling

We′re slowly turning into
An illusion
Who's looking back?

I can′t stand this world
I can't stand this world
No, I can′t stand this world
This world


And when did we start
To fall apart?
When did we dump
Our wounded hearts?

I can't stand this world
I can't stand this world
I can′t stand this world
Anymore, anymore

Breathe in, breathe out
It did not turn out
The way we hoped it would, no
The way we hoped it would

We′ve been busy being born
Now we're busy dying
I want to believe
We′ll be able to forgive ourselves

Oh, how did we get there?
How did we get there?
Oh, how did we get there?
I can't, I just can′t take it anymore
We're busy dying (how did we get there?)
I can′t, I just can't take it anymore
We're busy dying (how did we get-?)

The hopes and prayers, are gone with our better days
We never thought they would save us anyway
Too sore to dare, I′ve never felt this way before
I′ve tried, but I can't stand this world anymore
