Close My Eyes

Can't see faith through the tears
of my swollen eyes
I try to dry
I pretend it's not as bad as it seems... what a lie

how can we be so blind
every time a child dies
people are starving
rain forests are falling
the bombs are dropping from the sky

I don't know why - it sticks in my head
I close my eyes - and it hurts me so bad
I don't know why - it sticks in my head
I close my eyes - I close my eyes

I close my eyes

I look away from this misery
and I hope the problem will disappear

but it still hurts me everytime a child dies
it's like a knife you stab in my heart
and twist it, twist it, twist it around

I don't know why - it sticks in my head
I close my eyes - and it hurts me so bad
I don't know why - it sticks in my head
I close my eyes - I close my eyes

It's Only Them

Since I was a kid I've seen greedy people
just grabbing all they could take
I promised myself I'd never become like them
I can feel they're closing up on me, closer than I ever though
how could I have beeen so dumb, didn't I see it, feel it
smell it, taste it

It's only them coming from all directions
walking all over me again and again

they're feeding of your kindness, squeezing life right out of you
like a vampire sucks you dry, you cannot run and hide
if you give them a helping hand, they will take your whole life
without thinking twice, the only thing they want is
more and more and more

now I got a parasite into my life
I didn't see it coming 'til it almost broke me down

it's only them, you don't give - you're a taker
it's a matter of the size of your wallet
and the money that you're making
it's only them and nothing is sacred
they don't care if you brake your neck
as long as they'll make it

it's only them coming from all directions walking all over me
again and again

a tattoo burned on my skin, a disease without a cure
like a blind man running in circles on a dead end street

now I got a parasite into my life
I didn't see it coming 'til it almost broke me down

it's only them, you don't give - you're a taker
it's a matter of the size of your wallet
and the money that you're making
it's only them and nothing is sacred
they don't care if you brake your neck
as long as they'll make it

ah, it's only them...
ah, it's only them...

Just Think Again

Have you ever seen a child die?
Did you even know that it exists?
Did you know people outside your walls are starving to death?

So what would you do if it was up to you?
Would you even care?
I bet you would look another way and think of better things

Oh no, it's better to look away
You better close your eyes
Oh no, you don't wanna see anyone die
You just want to live your pretty life

Why won't we do anything?
Build up a wall around you so you don't have to see
Don't wanna preach but just think again

Oh no, it's better to look away
You better close your eyes
Oh no, you don't wanna see anyone die
You just want to live your pretty life

Why won't we do anything?
Build up a wall around you so you don't have to see
Don't wanna preach but just think again

Just Hate Me

I gotta think of something
to make you think less
of me, that I am nothing
to hold on to, cause we are through
I dislike you

I wish that you could hate me
then things would be so easy
just get me off your mind
if the bitch would have a son
then I would be the one
so hate me

geese, flying from the winter
that's what I should do, do, do
or become a sprinter
and run away
cause we are through
I dislike you

I wish that you could hate me
then things would be so easy
just get me off your mind
if the bitch would have a son
then I would be the one

I am being mean
like no one's ever been
just hate me...

I wish that you could hate me
then things would be so easy
just get me off your mind...
