The scandal is on the higher ground I read the news and it couldn’t be worse So tell me why why why Should that be my concern? The amount of lies and fraud is increasing Congruent to my dancing events Four days at a stretch We were celebrating Halloween Who said that we need a cause for the next drinks to buy? Who said that we need a cause for the next drinks to buy? After I ran through the town I fled from the light My dearest one, can you feel the heavy rhythm? Louder and louder it surrounds me I can’t remember why we are feting We rather should dance a last fair waltz Something I can laugh about A last fair waltz Something I can laugh about After I ran through the town I fled from the light After I ran through the town I fled from the light I fled from the light I fled from the light

Ivory Tower 04:14
The situation of your home ain’t quite accurate The flames of war crawl over your land You've got to understand it’s about a pile of money That’s why I built my house on a pile of bodies That cynical game was not my idea But I can’t deny my profits If you cannot vault the pit with the pikes The way to fortune is locked for you Bad luck this time for your ride To the ivory tower The graves of those who drowned tonight Won’t see any flower Well I don’t know where I can swim At the coast of Italy There’re countless corpses miles away That the sea devours Those of you who made the crossing Are crowded in a rotten hole See our friendship is quite one-sided We couldn’t give you much more All of our wealth is more important than you The place in the sun is rare Even if you could vault the pit with the pikes The place of fortune is locked for you Bad luck this time for your ride To the ivory tower The graves of those who drowned tonight Won’t see any flower Well I don’t know where I can swim At the coast of Italy There’re countless corpses miles away That the sea devours Better luck next time for you ride To the ivory tower The graves of those who drowned tonight Won’t see any flower Well I don’t know where I can swim At the coast of Italy There’re countless corpses miles away That the sea devours That the sea devours That the sea devours

Exile Song 02:15
This story isn’t finished yet but it’s worth telling you That democracy ain’t working in the European U A former spy revealed things that you never should hear Now he’s got a ticket to a post-socialist state to disappear And I don’t know if he’ll ever get caught The thing he’d done wasn’t treason, it’s a moral revolt And the ministry doesn’t seem to be shocked anymore And we’ll raise the flag again for our western big brother

The natural state is out of control But the problem is solved now We are too lazy for another decade Of this barbaric lifestyle We bow to the leviathan The writer of our rules Its right entangles our shapes Pretending that there’s no choice left I didn’t sign up for this I didn’t sign up for that The old contract is broken Even if they chase my tracks I didn’t sign up for this I didn’t sign up for that The old contract is broken They may hunt me to death That gargantuan beast Won’t get sick of gobblin' me We let it think for us Well comfort has its price Now we reared a hutch of bloaters That’s what we all became Now I think about to quit Or at least I claim The monster promised harmony It promised super security In return it demands for my Unofficial immaturity I didn’t sign up for this I didn’t sign up for that The old contract is broken Even if they chase my tracks I didn’t sign up for this I didn’t sign up for that The old contract is broken They may hunt me to... I didn’t sign up for this I didn’t sign up for that The old contract is broken Even if they chase my tracks I didn’t sign up for this I didn’t sign up for that The old contract is broken They may hunt me to death I didn’t sign up for that I didn’t sign up for that The old contract is broken

Clochard 05:04
I don’t want to work again Even if I get paid My concentration suffers And I rather get laid I sold my wakin' life For a starvation wage And when I close my eyes They’re dancing on my inner stage Admonish yourself To keep your composure In your algorithm I’m a part of the mechanical swirl Everything is predictable Even that I rather kiss my girl When November has come They jump from the bridge They displaced each other In the game “How to get rich” I could run amok Got a better idea When they start to yell at you Say: “Goodbye my dear...” Admonish yourself To keep your composure I’m not better than you And not worse than others Among those lazy fools I’m not quite conspicuous I don’t want to work again Even if I get paid My concentration suffers And I rather get laid
