Lyrics

Your twisted cynicism - makes me feel sick

Your pessimistic and distrustful attitude deeply disturbs me.

Your open disgust for 'idealistic naive'

You openly disdain those who are idealistic and naive.

You've given up hope you're jaded and ill

You've lost hope, feeling disillusioned and unwell.

The trouble is your thoughts a catching disease

The problem is that your negative thoughts are spreading like an infectious illness.

Ooh - you need to get away

You urgently need to escape from this situation.

Ooh - you need a change of pace

You require a change of environment or routine.

Because you're all dried up and you don't believe

You've become emotionally drained and have lost faith.

You reckon I'm dreaming when I say I still feel real

You doubt my assertion that I still experience genuine feelings.

You say you work for yourself and its the only way

You claim to work for yourself exclusively and see it as the sole path.

But I look at you talking and to me you just scrape away

However, observing you talk, I see you as hollow or superficial.

What makes once young minds get in this state,

What causes once youthful minds to deteriorate like this?

Is it age or just the social climate

Is it the passage of time or the prevailing social atmosphere?

You're talking like some fucking hardened MP

Your speech resembles that of a hardened and vulgar politician.

You're saying power's all!

You claim that power is everything!

And it's power you need!

You crave power above all else!

Ooh - you need to get away

You urgently require an escape from this situation.

Ooh - you need a change of place

You need a change of surroundings.

Because you've given up on hope

Because you've relinquished all hope.

You're emotionless

You're devoid of emotion.

You've no need for love it's just hate, hate, hate.

You don't value love; it's all about hate for you.

But I look at you shaking and it is you

However, I see you trembling and crumbling, revealing your own deterioration.

Who is scraping away

It's you who is gradually losing substance and vitality.

You who is scraping away.

It's you who is deteriorating and losing essence.
