Stillstand (engl.:Standstill) Songtext / Lyric

POVERTY AND UNEMPLOYMENT
RESIGNATION AND LETHARGY
EVERYONE SUBMERGES INTO A STATE OF DRUNKNESS
THEY ALL PITY THEMSELVES
THE LIFE THAT THEY LEAD MAKES THEM SICK
BUT IT`S THEIR OWN FAULT
WHERE THERE IS NO PROGRESS
FINALLY THERE IS JUST A STANDSTILL

STANDSTILL
THERE`S A STANDSTILL
STANDSTILL STANDSTILL
EVERYTHING STANDS STILL

THE SUN RISES, THE ALARM CLOCK SCREAMS
THE HANGOVER TORTURES THE BRAIN
THE HIGH-PROOF SPIRITS ARE STANDING BESIDE THE BED
THE LEVEL BECOMES STABILIZED
THE DOLE PAYMENT GETS CANCELLED TODAY
I CAN PARTY TIL TOMORROW
TOMORROW IS JUST ANOTHER DAY
BUT TODAY I JUST GIVE UP

LOOK AT YOURSELF, HAVE A LOOK AROUND
LOOK BACK, LOOK FORWARD

FAILURE EVERYWHERE
PEOPLE SHATTERED
OBSTACLES ARE BLOCKADING THEIR WAY
THEY MADE THINGS DIFFICULT FOR THEMSELVES
GIANT ECONOMIES EXPAND
MARGINAL GROUPS LOSE OUT
PROSPECTS LIE IN DARKNESS
HOPES ARE BURIED
