Lyrics
We close our eyes and look in opposite direction
We avoid facing reality by closing our eyes and turning away.
We ignore the threats and hope they'll go away
We neglect potential dangers, hoping they will disappear on their own.
We refuse to pay attention to the dangers we create
We intentionally ignore the hazards we contribute to.
In the name of our fathers we kill our children
In the pursuit of traditional values, we harm future generations.
We wait and think that we are biding our time
We believe we are patiently waiting for a better time.
We keep silent, we believe in our strength
We remain silent, trusting in our perceived strength.
We trust in propaganda of the wonders of tomorrow
We rely on propaganda promising a better future.
In the shadow of content we are victims in the end
Under the guise of contentment, we become victims in the end.
We dance to the sound of sirens
We engage in activities amidst imminent danger.
And we watch genocide to relax
We passively witness acts of genocide as a form of relaxation.
We dance to the sound of sirens
We continue engaging in risky behavior, indifferent to consequences.
We are the heroes of self-deception
We consider ourselves heroes through self-deception.
We are nailed to the ground, frozen in our movements
We are stuck and immobile, unable to progress.
We listen while the sirens sound, speaking of improvements
We hear about progress while sirens warn of danger.
We have anger in our souls that waits to be released
We harbor repressed anger waiting to be expressed.
In the chill of fear we're petrified and useless when it counts
Fear paralyzes us, rendering us ineffective when it matters.
We dance to the sound of sirens
We continue dangerous activities despite warnings.
And we watch genocide to relax
We relax by observing genocide, detached from its gravity.
We dance to the sound of sirens
We persist in risky behavior, blinded by self-deception.
We are the heroes of self-deception
We maintain a false perception of heroism through self-deception.
