Rome - Die Nelke lyrics

We are drifting along without remembering We are merely strangling shadows We are morose, we are pathetic - we are done Look at us now - we are kneeling Look at us now - are we kneeling? When we should be - weeping with rage Or at least be rattling our chains Look at us now - we are over Look at us now - we are over We remain outside the circles Watching them turn When we are left with nothing to give Nothing to overcome or conquer History smells of traitor History smells of who*e It's flowing in our veins It's oozing out through our pores When we should be - weeping with rage Or at least be rattling our chains Look at us now - we are over Look at us now - we are over You who mistook love for boredom You who have no self-control You who confuse talking with breathing What do you know - of the lives we're leading? History smells of traitor - History smells of who*e And yet again it pours - d**h from the skies For a sunless life When we should be - weeping with rage Or at least be rattling our chains Look at us now - we are over
