was the last time we ever did a recording. We recorded at our practice space @ JUZ MANNHEIM with our friend RALF BERNHARDT. This was supposed to become a split 7“ w/ our friends from CHAINBREAKER. They broke up, we broke up, and the songs never got released. The recordings must have been sometime in 2006 and/or 2007.
lyrics
they are turning us against each other
they are turning us against ourselves
reducing humans just to objects
and it's us – the puppets
who'll buy what they sell
refuse to see "beauty" through their eyes
refuse to think in terms of their minds
their truth is a lie for far too many times
dare to rise – exist to rage
but we're trapped inside this golden cage
we're so manipulated – we're so controlled
we're so conditioned – we're gonna play our roles
they are selling an image and we're willing to buy
aesthetic standards are designed
to get the kids back into line
some people might say – who are you?
i am me, i said
you think you can say the same?
the media, the screens – pretty people in shitty magazines
go starve yourselves – hooray! - the diarrhea die plan – loose 20 pounds in only 14 days
