Inspired by A. Huxley's "Brave New World" Infants conceived and born in laboratory tubes Their caste pre-decided by the genes they were subjected to Born to serve consumerism, brainwashed to ignore the truth Our human nature stifled by the drug we are designed to abuse. This is my world My sober angst Cursed to be different It’s time to revolt Docile, in a world of illusions, with authoritarians feeding upon us Do we choose to seek for justice or be amused by dreams of prosperity? How can we stand indifferent to the sufferings of others? By coincidence alone our life is not yet smothered Blaming minorities ‘cause they’re the easy target Soon there’ll be no voice to protest for what has happened

Inspired by R. Bradbury's "Fahrenheit 451" -Innocence- Is the face of a child, impugning the norm Repressing suicide, genuine lust for life An orange blaze burns my past, as I walk down this vast boulevard. The hound is in for the hunt, this show needs a scapegoat. -Firemen- Ignorant fools, burning books Incinerating dreams, pervading conformity

Call to arms, your name glorified Romantic visionary of ancient times You shall stand before it and daze The greatest war of the modern age Food for the gun, industrialized warfare Piles of rotten corpses used as a bed A bullet in the head, your last hope To set you free of the torture you can’t cope. Life inside your grave With rats devouring your brain The place where morale and dignity died In the trenches you’ll wonder if you’re alive. Am I alive? I am, ain’t I? Ain’t I? You can bury your pompous national pride Deep in the trenches where brave men died Fighting for ideals proved to be in vain Exposed to the merciless hands of horrid pain.   Seconds won’t pass, time seems so stale This numbness slowly freezes my brain Been so naïve, I could not see The enemy ahead is a twisted portrait of me. Jumping over rivers of barbed wire and led So I can embrace my long-lost friend. Stinking gas blended with the twilight mist The piercing screams of insanity Faces of men bruising in despair Their last earthly moments blatantly grasping for air. How on earth did he run away When bullets fell like rain? What crazy thoughts stand behind the overwhelming joy Of a dead man’s frozen smile?

4 AM and you drown your sorrows In front of empty bottles If you wanna find the meaning Take a look at yourself But it’s the misery, fueled by all this apathy That keeps you trapped in a cage called home Passing days are a drag, with no hopes of good things to come Youth is too precious to spend with a screen, you know. Your running short of money Isn’t what’s driving you mad honey Do you really need all this cash To have some fun? Without a job, you gotta make things work To keep it sane and stay clean Cause this filthy weed and all that follow it Is a great way to inert and obey. Save the excuses to yourself They’ll come in handy when you’re dead First class witness To the stealing of your life Of all the things you could achieve You chose to kill your dreams Lifestyle, what a great way to hide The void of your soul Vanity is such a cruel bitch Pleases your ego, it’s all about “me” What’s this bitterness you feel Did you realize everyone hates you you selfish dick? 4 AM and you drown your sorrows In front of empty bottles If you wanna find the meaning Take a look at yourself
