lyrics

Into the fall, autumn years have passed
Commence control, the time has come at last
Seeking shelter, peace
I need to know, to put my soul at ease.

What has this world come to
There is nothing left that we can do
Show us there’s a chance
That our child can survive here too,
even without you

You take us beneath your wings
For as long as we obey
Born into a world of greed
No one makes it on their own

Trust me I only want your best
Come on as you are this day
We take you deep inside our warmth
regardless of your will
“Give up or die for the greater good”

A promise worth
More than one can say
Obedience fails
Stay the hell away
Seeking shelter, peace
The word is out, we don’t comment

You take us beneath your wings
For as long as we obey
Born into a world of greed
No one makes it on their own

Trust me I only want your best
Come on as you are this day
We take you deep inside our warmth
regardless of your will
“Give up or die for the greater good”

We haven’t seen the profit in our hands as you promised
And we are all ashamed that we thought it was true, deceiving liars
Justice can fall from grace
And hit you with its own right pace
Hunting your generations to come
You destroy the love for me within

Into the fall, autumn years have passed
Commence control, the time we had has passed

What kind of place is this? I don’t want my girl growing up in these circumstances. It’ll kill her. I can’t let her have the same misfortunes we had. She has to get a better life than this. Huh, this is no life.
