The Endless Wait (For People to Show Themselves to Be Anything Other Than Useless)
there's something coming, everyone can feel it it's in the air, it's all around something to welcome or something to fear? it's nothing we can see and nothing we can hear the protection lines are drawn, the fences standing high shelters built against this storm without questioning why and still we wait...
now the newsreaders regale us with stories of despair of tragedy and heroism just to keep everyone scared so the fences are torn down to be replaced by higher walls bigger bolts placed on the doors and windows reinforced the crowd on the outside get caught up in the flow pushing, shoving against the wall as the anger starts to grow those left on the inside start to fear for their lives so they arm themselves to the teeth and prepare themselves to fight
the needy try to plead or trade their posessions and food the doorman is on overtime and a bidding war ensues the wealthy try to reason and buy their own way in but the back door's left defenceless, the guard's gone for a drink 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网 the crowd on the outside starts to gather pace still not sure what they're fighting against but can't bear to lose face over to the inside: there's an argument as to who's tougher no decision can be made so they start on one another
endless crashing against the wall turns it into rubble the mob decide to run away before there's anymore trouble back inside the fighting is down to flesh and bone but they haven't even noticed everyone else has gone home
regardless of the need and regardless of what's right people are too stupid, weak, lazy, or preoccupied to bother themselves to get out, to bother themselves to fight for a cause that they believe in or a battle for their rights so instead they watch their lives slip by in front of the television this country full of armchair fascists and saloon bar politicians
and still we wait...
