Hating Every Minute

Do intangible waves offer me escape?
I wanna know what it’s like on the edge of a knife
'Cos yesterdays stories have no promises of glory
I just wanna escape for a minute or two
So what the fuck am I supposed to do?
Yesterday evening, at the Gangland right across from the (49)bus,
another man was put on the ground
They pulled the trigger, we walk past without a sound
They fire at will, we kiss as they kill
We say we do as we want then sit prfectly still
I guess you could say that I’ll nevr learn, but you won’t teach me with
third-degree burns
You say «I don’t care anymore, this is nothing I ain’t heard before»
Saying «I don’t care anymore»
We sing these songs like they’re our own
It’s nothing new, oh yes we know
They’re just the tales from our front door
When our sugar-coated life’s a bore
(Seems like you can even fault a privileged life these days, whatever next?)
Then I was asked what did I learn?
I think I summed it up in these 4 words:
'I hated every minute'
I’m cringing while I’m singing
Maybe no-one will notice and I’ll get through this
Maybe they’ll think it’s mine that I’m literally inflamed with passion that I
contorted into rhyme
But then «THIS JUST IN: The kids are so complacent and they don’t even know it
yet so they’re lashing out so aimlessly at things that aren’t even threat!»
You say «I don’t care anymore, I’ve left my interest at the door»
I don’t care anymore (Woah)
We sing these songs like they’re our own
It’s nothing new, oh yes we know
They’re just the tales from our front door
When our sugar-coated life’s a bore
We sing these songs like they’re our own
It’s nothing new, oh yes we know
We sing these songs like they’re our own
It’s nothing new, oh yes we know
