lyrics

I am stuck inside a house without windows
On the fifth floor in a post war atmosphere
I am stuck inside a circus leaving breadcrumbs in circles
Strings attached to every finger, every thought

I am locked inside a building without stairways
On the fifth floor, no sense to care for the outside world
I am stuck inside a circus, watching lions feed on my carcass
Ripping limbs off, by tearing strings off

I need a ringing bell
to cancel out the noise
I need to disappear
I need to disappear
I need a ringing bell
to cancel out the noise
I need to disappear
I need to disappear


I am only alive inside a world I created
On the fifth day of this “child´s play reality”
I am tied to something untrue, a tangled world-view
But there´s a glitch in my system, an answer is missing, a number in the code wasn´t written

You got me thinking I committed a crime staying up after bedtime
That every little sign you drew the line to disobedience was dangerous
Cause you are stronger, you are older you are taller, you are bolder, you are wiser, more courageous, you´re productive and devoted, independent and forgiving, you´re a leader, an achiever, you´re competitive, inventive and you´re smart. And I am just a devil with a heart

I need a ringing bell
to cancel out the noise
I need to disappear
I need to disappear
I need a ringing bell
to cancel out the noise
I need to disappear
I need to disappear
