Cadaver Obedience
No scruple, no pain
Empty silence
–
a place of peace and quiet
Did what needed to be done
Said what had to be said
Clear instructions left no choice
No remorse comes my way
No sorrow keeps me awake
Have you ever heard the call of duty?
Have you ever served for a superior goal?
The so called life of opportunities -
A blurred shadow from the past

Nothing to me
I don ́t care what you say
cause your life means nothing
I don ́t care what you do
cause your life means nothing to me
it ́s not over until its over
I don ́t care what you say
this world is rotten
straight goes down to hell
you still play that game
you know where to walk
you know where to talk
now i ́m afraid you ́ll have to pay
it ́s not over until it ́s over

Scourge of humanity
life is pain and pain is here
dragging progress torturing your mind
humiliated by underpaid staff
so much money to spend
but no time to loose
what a fuckin nightmare
each step forward
a punch in your face
trampled on your civil rights
with pleasure
you work hard for your money
and you deserve respect
but your head-shaking remains as
an unseen outburst of despair
till queues
–
scourge of humanity

Excess
of enjoyment
I ́ve failed to let go
I ́ve failed today
the uncertainty of black sea
like a storm front of sickness
to draw near
cause you know twisted up my mind
cut my trust right in two now
dead, sickened, gray inside
feel the deafness of swoon
i ́m sick of voices
i ́m sick of my thinking
i ́m sick of observing
we ́ve got no choice anymore
human ethics is disintegrating

confidence
mankind – a blink in earth's history
a dayfly full of exponential blight
a bad and destructive joke
told by noone responsible
our blind faith in progress
and technical achievements
will lead to a complete breakdown
in heady speed
we are doing our best
the soundtrack of armageddon
will be laughter and knee-slappers
a bad joke is still a joke
and who laughs last laughs calmly
we are doing our best
and we will make it

Dystopian Middleclass Blues
Too many options and open doors
I've got to find my way
But i want more, more and more
too much is never enough
Stagnation, complaints,
Wailing for no reason
Luxury problems
a pain in the ass
rediculous torture
for spoiled minds
dystopian middleclass blues
my favourite song

Flatrunner
Step by step running in squares
Horizons upon the next wall
Following worn out trails
With enthusiastic routine
The essential constraint
Nothing more than a challenge
Fading out everything
Beyond conformity
Flatrunner
Material relief
Or hedonistic despair
No matter, how small your steps are
You will always make your way
This is not a question of distance
This is a question of movement

Needless needs
Our basic human needs
Are blank pages
That need to be filled
By a commercial type writer
24 hours
heavy rotation
Invading all senses
With an incessant mantra
Eat, shit and first of all:
Buy buy buy
You need
you want
you require
Needless needs
Milled in our brains
Touted shit as gold
With overwhelming success

Underwhelming Goodness
In my underwhelming goodness
i reach out my hand to you
containg a kindhearted gift
to improve your worthless life
grab this job i'm offering
and cling to it in desperation
no matter how shitty
you'll be treated
never give up never complain
inoccupation the hardest job ever
where is idleness there is punishment
i will open the door for you
and you will have a seat
in the companionship
of the valuable
inoccupation the hardest job ever
where is wage work there is dignity
