In the Heart of Europe
Unveiling the Cultural Erosion: Heart of Europe's Struggle
Lyrics
Our landscape raped by different armies
Our land has been ravaged by various invading forces.
Soldiers, slaves who have no faces
Those in military service or servitude whose identities are lost in the chaos.
Control our ways and lives completely
External forces completely dictate and influence our paths and existence.
Our minds are torn, time left its traces
Our minds bear the scars of time and experiences.
Controlled by TV screens and letters
We're manipulated by televised content and written communication.
That point out assimilation
This directs us toward conforming to outside influences.
To trends and movements from outside
We succumb to adopting external trends and movements.
Fall victim to this infiltration
We become victims of this pervasive intrusion.
Everybody's just consuming
Everyone is merely consuming what the media dictates.
What the media's dictating
Media holds authority over people's choices and actions.
And they all have just forgot
They've forgotten the fulfillment of creating something.
The joy that is to creating
The joy of creation has been lost or disregarded.
Here in the heart of Europe
In the heart of Europe, no one displays pride anymore.
No one stands up proud no more
There's a lack of collective dignity in this region.
Here in the heart of Europe
In the heart of Europe, our culture is declining.
Our culture is a dying whore
Our cultural heritage is diminishing like a degraded entity.
No room for individuality
There's no space for uniqueness or individual expression.
Grey masses who think one way only
People think and act as a homogeneous mass.
Move like robots through the streets
Moving mechanically through life, akin to robots in the streets.
In our thinking we stand lonely
In our thoughts, we feel isolated and alone.
Once a land of art and culture
This region was once a hub of artistic and cultural expression.
Now slave to streams from outside
Now it's enslaved to influences from outside its borders.
Our nations culture, doomed and dying
Our national culture is on a path of decay and demise.
Like a candle's fading light
Our culture's vitality is fading away like a dying candle's light.
