Lunatics Republic - DJ Version Songtext
von Ende Chen

Far in the East, there′s a madhouse rising
A giant cage they proudly call "a nation."
The warden wears a crown of fear
His guards swing hammers, blades of steel—
Shouting "Serve the people!" every day
While life is trampled underneath their boots

Truth-tellers silenced, mouths sewn shut
Bootlickers crowned as sages of the age
Those who seek answers are dragged away
While the wicked rise and take the stage
Right becomes wrong, wrong becomes law
Black and white twisted into one blur


They say you're mad—
Only because you won′t obey
Won't kneel, won't play their foolish game
They say you′re mad—
Only because you see too clear
Won′t beg, won't tremble in their cage
They say you′re mad—
Only because you dare to ask
Who truly owns this land, this place

Madness, madness—everyone's gone mad!
Right turns to wrong
Lies win the prize
And truth gets locked away

The whole society′s glitching, spinning, breaking
People vanish without a single word
News sings praise and nothing else
Silence grows where courage used to live
More and more things make no sense
And fewer and fewer dare to speak

Carry two hundred pounds for ten long miles—
Sure, why not, just laugh it off
Notebook in hand day and night—
Not knowledge, just orders to absorb
Delete, erase, silence every voice—
Fear disguised as discipline
Poverty gone, nation strong—
A pretty lie for the stage lights


When lies become the truth of the land
Tell me—
Is the country sane, or drowning in delusion?

Madness, madness—who's the one that′s truly mad?
The clear-eyed branded as lunatics
While the reckless rule with iron hands

Chaos, chaos—everything's reversed!
True becomes fake
Right becomes criminal

The kind are called diseased
The cruel inherit the throne
Those with conscience live like sinners
Soulless thieves crowned as heroes
