ASTPAI LYRICS

"The Scavenger"

Hands tied we're ready to, ready to force
hands-off we're ready for, ready for more
hands tied we're ready to force our fucking selves

once more to become quite every shit
we're feeling sorry for.
at least in this scene
all different ideals correspond
to settle down and take their seats
to petrify paralysed as one
as one silent attender.
thousands of reflections make it so easy for you to surrender.
numbness' footprints
are even too big to be filled
as you realise this voice unknown
still somehow leaves you thrilled telling you:
"the trend's set, you're free to call it yours"
hands tied ready to force - ourselves
hands tied ready for more
analysis, paralysis -
breaking, rebuilding, over and over again
as smaller parts get lost
in this process of making believe
that you still got in hands what's already gone,
that you still feel all the things turned already numb.

hands tied we're ready to, ready to force
hands-off we're ready for, ready for more
hands tied we're ready to force ourselves
feel free to call it yours:

your child - still bearing all it's dignity
your mother - able to give birth to you so desperately
and perform your abortion at the same time.
your father - releasing a pulse
and leaving you and everything behind.

my fingers went through hard times
as servants for a fake solution.
it took 'em years to convince the rest,
that the act of watching has never been the problem,
it always went way beyond this
way beyond a shallow rendez vous -
shallow but colourful
eyes up the pylon,
with every second flags are waving more and more
in shiny red, yellow and blue
