lyrics

i ask myself: is this me?
nothing is clear i can’t see
everyone tries so hard to be
individually but it’s not real

i ask myself: is this real?
what i’m supposed to be

i think i’m individual but the truth is everyone’s the same
we think we’re individual but the truth is everyone’s the same

everything is the same
and I am inbetween - in this game
it’s hard not to participate
and if you wait too long, it will be too late

the society pressure, results in new rules
sets new standards: but you’re not free to choose
just watch TV, what is in the news
believe blindly, don’t make a point of view

everyone flawless – diversity forbidden
change your outside unless – characteristic hidden
wear the same things, do the same things,
think the same things, unless you can’t think by yourself

everywhere the same way
everysingle day, every minute, every second
everything black white and gray
monochrome cities, monochrome parks, monochrome people
similar goals, similar lives, similar equal

it ‚s so comfortable, not to stand out
no ideas of one’s own, just getting lost in the crowd
we are gregorious creatures, we don’t look left or right
just live on and live on, don’t ever think about thinking twice
