Rotten to the Core Songtext
von Rifftera

How would this time be any different?
Haven′t we learned before?
How would this one make any difference?
You know one
You know 'em all
Trust when I say they can′t be trusted
Same plot repeats time after time
Image of dreams will start to wither
Word after word
Lie after lie

One hand points to peace
While the other one strangles!
One hand points to peace
While the other one strangles!

Each of them promising the moon and the stars
Telling they're the one
One by one these words are forgotten
And their hearts...


Are rotten to the core
Core!
Rotten to the core!
Rotten core!

For how long are you gonna keep on pretending
That it doesn't matter?
Just how far does it have to go until heads will roll?

Eventually we reach the breaking point
(And one falls)
Another one rises
(Another one rises)

One hand points to peace
While the other one strangles!
One hand points to peace
While the other one strangles!

Each of them promising the moon and the stars
Telling they′re the one
One by one these words are forgotten and their hearts
They′re rotten to the core


Core!
Rotten to the Core!
Rotten core!
(Solo)
(Breakdown)

Each of them promising the moon and the stars
Telling they're the one
One by one these words are forgotten and their hearts
They′re rotten to the core
They're rotten to the core

Watch their hearts rot away

Core!
I tell you what: they′re all...
Rotten to the core!
Core
Rotten core!
