lyrics

Please don't look at me like this.
As if you were judging me on my human bliss.
Is it something to be ashamed of when it's in everyone of us?
An uneven power bred by anger and lust.
And I'm trying to fight what human-kind has been trying to hide.
Yet I keep throwing stones into the lake waiting for eruption to overtake.
And I don't mind to break my neck
but this time I have lost the bet.

Keep playing the saint that you aim to be. But there is one thing that you should know- when there is no way to go
your hate will just overflow.

Let's say we live in a century where everyone is good.
We learnt from our past and what our ancestors could.
Sorry to call you naive but a drive doesn't change.
Hundred years to compromise but still – You seem like a wolf to me.

Am I bound to live in order when all I build will fall some time? Yet noone dares to question one's kind.

Still I keep throwing stones – into your face waiting for your anger to overtake.
