Toxic Songtext
von Bittter

"Big boys don′t cry"
Not only a dull fairytale
But also a noxious lie
Let me tell you something real

I'm made of flesh, made of bones
I bleed, I cry, I fuckin′ feel
I believe the same applies to you
At least that's what I hope

Isn't it exhausting to try and conceal
A simple matter of fact?

For how long can you hold your breath?
And how strong do you think you have to be?
How do you define being strong at all?
Does it mean that we all have to take the fall?

Your ramshackle fortress
Makes a crumbling sound
A Potemkin village
Ain′t no pleasant place to live


The most colorful confetti
Comes from black and white pictures
So let′s shred them to pieces
And dance in the most amazing rain

"Boys will be boys"
If you keep telling them
"Boys will be boys"
I can't take this crap just one more day

For how long can you hold your breath?
And how strong do you think you have to be?
How do you define being strong at all?
Does it mean that we all have to take the fall?

If being a man means
Acting like a giant macho douche
If being a man means
Expecting inbred authority
Reducing oneself to a robot
And living a life of self-destruction


Then count me out
Just count me out
Count
Me
Out
Just count me out

For how long can you hold your breath?
And how strong do you think you have to be?
How do you define being strong at all?
Does it mean that we all have to take the fall?
