Pain of Salvation

Kingdom Of Loss Songtext / Lyric


Pain of Salvation - Kingdom Of Loss Songtext


Someone sells us Toys™ in a cheap cartoon

Someone sells us Cars™ in the latest Bond™ that's coming soon

Someone sells us Trends™ through a sitcom star

Someone sells Herself™ in a docu-soap

That goes too far



Life™ on sale



Can someone please just tell me what happened?

I mean, first we paid for fast-food that will make us all fat and tired

So then we pay for elevators

So we won't have to climb the 3 stairs up to our apartments

Then we buy freaking StairMaster™ machines

So we can burn away while watching someone make real food on TV

Now if that doesn't make us winners, I don't know what will

I bet we would hang ourselves, if the world would just cut us a slack

And now you think maybe you should see a shrink

Help you feel alive again - yeah, that's a plan

Just tell us who to pay






Someone sells us Man™ in a White House™ speech

Then Woman™ tightly pressed

Between two bouncing breasts on a Baywatch™ beach

Someone sells us Us™ everywhere I turn

Then introducing Them™

To earn stock-points on our concern



All for sale

It's all for sale...



Welcome down to planet Earth™

Please don't ask us what it's worth

You will notice that the world you found

Is slightly tattered and worn down



Someone sold us every stain

Now if you wish to complain

There's an open spot at 6 pm

It's when Caucasia is listening



If you're tearing down my world

Please just try to do it gently...

There is love inside

For a dream that has to die



See, it's really all about time and choice:

The fast food saves us enough time to squeeze lunch in exactly when we want it

The elevators save us just a little more

The StairMaster™ let us choose exactly when to walk the stairs

Time is so important these days

It's becoming a fucking disease

And I guess in a way it is

Since it's bound to kill us all in the end

Now with all the time and money we stashed away on others' expense

I can only assume that the tickets to hell are really expensive

And for some reason

It's important to be first in line



Someone sells us God™ in 2-for-1 with Shame™

Someone sells us War™

And the marketing, looks just the same

Someone sells us Fear™ on TV each day

A shape for every taste

If the flavour's right, we gladly pay



All on sale

We're all on sale...



Welcome to the only Earth™

Please enjoy your only birth

You will learn to take more than you give

Buying scars you must live with

Someone sold us every scar

They somehow made us what we are

We all long that spot at 6 pm

But no one is really listening



No

Not anymore

We're all too busy

Buying Sex™

Buying War™

Oh

Buying Self Confidence™

Security™

Insurance Plans™

Just buying More & More™



As you're tearing down my world

Please just try to do it gently...

(there's still love inside for the dream that has to die)

As you're tearing down our world...
