Echoes Songtext
von Conflict

There′s none of your rejoicing here
The world's pain echoes in my ears
What do you pray for on your knees?
Nobody survives if we can′t save bees

I have something to say
While you ignore me and pray
Take it or fucking leave it anyway

Echoes of things I will never know
Memories of places I will never go
Scars so deep, I'll never show

Spiralling down into lonely despair

Echoes of things that I will never know
And there's memories of places that I will never go
And scars so deep I will never show

You are what you eat
You reap what you sow
Everything′s fucking poison
I envy those who don′t fucking know


I'm not asking them to dance
They′ve had their fucking chance

Living in peaceful, ignorant bliss
None of us fucking asked for this

Don't say it′s not fair
Or that you don't care
I care about mine like you care about yours
I tried to warn you and you kicked me up the arse

And somehow, echoes from the past
Take me back to what I′ve lost
I see their faces, can't remember their name
I've only myself to fucking blame

My endless search for freedom
Was it all just insanity?
The essence of humanity
It′s been tough for me too
I tried to warn you
You wouldn′t listen
You never do


Enjoy what you have, forget what you want
One day you'll realise there′s no-one to impress
Because there's no-one left

Only you
