lyrics

This is not making sense
this must be a joke
all this people dying to catch a reflection

of the stars shining in the heaven
of this crappy fake re-enactment
of the life that seems too boring
to be fucking plainly lived

and they run, they run
to get their faces in
the big machine

and they smile, they smile
to sneak into the pit
where lies just fit

where shit is sold as solid gold
and everyone is famous for
doing fucking useless horseshit
and being quite ok about it

'cause all the world would be staring at them,
adoring
frantically
the V.I.P.


This is the world we live
this is the place where I'm born
where to check that you're existing
you need filmed proof you're still breathing

when life comes through the others' eyes
dead must be working 9 to 5
and there's no shit that's left for giving
for those who sweat their living

so they run, they run
to get their faces in
the big machine

so they smile, they smile
to sneak into the pit
where lies just fit

forgetting every step they make is taped
and every breath they take is saved
that all their lives are stored in some place
all those days of stupid rat race

lay in hard drives, DVDs,
for guards to see.
CCTV,
funny indeed.
