The city is bright with neon lights
Another advert every night
Pretty faces, happy smiles
Pay to join the perfect life
Offices and shopping malls
We have enough but they want more
Ghetto for poor, ghetto for rich
Housing is a privilege
Ugly buildings, ugly streets
Cold blue glass and grey concrete
Monitoring security guards
Forbidden zone, no tresspass
They own the streets
They'll buy the whole land
What are you planning here?
Next Disneyland?
Unknown soldiers of consumerism age
Are you ready to die at promotional sales
Work, buy, consume, die
Never question why
First they took Manhattan
Now they take Berlin

Falling Stars

Behind the smile and happy face
Behind the facade there's ugliness
Your perfect life is going to hell
And there's no one there who can help
The final blow, the mask is off
Now face yourself, try to face yourself
The image is cracked and everything
Just falls apart, Just falls apart
Tonite's the night of falling stars
There's no trial, no second chance
All's been said, all's been done
There's nothing left
Just burning ground

Kristallnacht

Do you hear that old military beat
They're marching through your neighbour hood
They're marching down your street
Do you hear that old nationalist song
How once this country
Was united great and strong
They're standing in the corner ready for the fight
Looking for someone who doesn't look quite right
They're smashing up your windows
They're burning down your houses
It cannot happen here
It cannot happen now
Kristallnacht
Remember politicians shaking their hands
Talking about democracy and human rights
When all they ever want is to rule
Millions of people are forced to leave their homes
The cities are burned down to the ground
Do you see the connection, do you understand
And we're dancing to the same old beat as the history repeats

Closed Circuits

The lonesome widow who lives next door
Passing by in the grocery store
Someone is watching
Someone is listening
A camera hidden in your living room
A microphone placed in the light switch too
Someone is watching
Someone is listening to you
We laught we drink
Under closed circuits tonight
We kiss we sleep
Under closed circuits tonight
The gentleman walking down the street
Who seems to be everywhere that we meet
Someone is watching
Someone is listening
The van across the street from your door
That wasn't always parked there before
Someone is watching
Someone is listening for more
We scream we cry
Under closed circuits tonight
We bleed we die
Under closed circuits tonight
Oh we live private lives
We wear the disguise

Love Warning
03:27

Life ain't no romantic movie
But expectations are still high
When you're learning by mistakes
It can be so fucking hard
Love burning, burning Love
Love warning, warning Love
There you're standing in a corner
Waiting for another chance
But all you're getting in the end
Is a broken heart and a one night stand
Love burning, burning Love
Love warning, warning Love!
And sometimes it's not enough.
