Blackball |
| In this world of hate and shallowness |
| Where enemies become your consolation |
| And those of us who win the game |
| Give up their minds |
| I don’t call that winning |
| Say this doesn’t apply to you |
| But ask yourself first |
| What have I done today to win the game |
| And just what have I sacrificed |
| Win the battle or lose the war |
| I know I’ve played the game before |
| When people were still real |
| I don’t want this anymore |
| It’s time for me to close the door |
| There’s nothing left to feel |
| Reflect on all our yesterdays |
| My own words choke me |
| Why were they spoken |
| Regret for things I’ve said and done |
| Just can’t compare with |
| Regret for those that I have never tried |
| So blame this world or blame yourself |
| It’s really all the same |
| When you are standing on that precipice |
| From which you just cannot return |
| Win the battle or lose the war |
| I know I’ve played the game before |
| When people were still real |
| I don’t want this anymore |
| It’s time for me to close the door |
| There’s nothing left to feel |
| In the style of forgotten men |
| I look to my horizon |
| I see nothing |
| While thoughts of guns and desecration |
| Sweep through my mind |
| But only coffins and bones remain |
| As I look to you |
| The emptiness behind your eyes |
| Seals my decision |
| Can’t carry on in a world of jugglers |
| Where all this thoughtlessness |
| And bludgeonings your key to success |
| What kind of tradition to carry on |
| Blackball‚ The new disease |
| Blackball‚ The new disease |
| Blackball‚ Your evil ways have found |
| Their way inside me |
| Blackball‚ The new disease |
| Blackball‚ The new disease |
| Blackball‚ For a better life in this |
| High-tech dog-eat-dog existence |
| Win the battle or lose the war |
| I know I’ve played the game before |
| When people were still real |
| I don’t want this anymore |
| It’s time for me to close the door |
| There’s nothing left to feel |
