Is This Our Generation - Lyrics

I come home at night
And I step onto a snail
I know it is disgusting
But it is just how it feels
When you're not anymore
In control of your bad habits
When you're not anymore
In control of your bad habits
There is no way out
Yes there is a way out
It is just not easy to get out of this crowd
Going one way
No space to elute
No place, No food, No interlude
And I'm running running running
There is no reason just running
I push myself from the one to the one and then back to the one
Never waste time by choosing which way to go,
Just follow the line, the sign, that, that should be fine
And I'm touching me, I am touching myself
Try to feel anything, I can't feel it at all
I don ́t listen anymore to the voice in my brain
I don't listen anymore to the screaming of my brain
Is that the taste, taste, taste, shit, go on, you are late
Don't miss the fake things happening around you
Found you crying on the floor, I want more more more
Cause I like to suffer and I like to suffer

Next one
I am ready to eat the day
Look left, look right
Turn around, don't smile
These are just sweaty fatty faces, which squeeze past me
I try not to move, but they move me
Please stop it
I want to get out of here
This future is long gone
I am new born and awake
I can do it
Whatever it is, just do it
The sound of bittersweaty melodies is turning me on
I want to listen but I can't stop, cause I'm still on the run
So I go on, not satisfied
But some things have to be done
Cause when I think about the places, I am already gone
They want me faster, want us faster
There is no time to rest
I have to cough, will puke, no air, I can not breath
It's getting tight and tighter, but there was a limit for this
We can't work faster, can't be younger
Don't you know that we live

Fuck I'm under pressure, body strain
Nervous twitches I'm on my way
Masks with a body, boys dressed in suits
They wanna be big and they don't care about you
I have a look around, nobody is looking around
Only mad amused teens laughing with a burnout smile
I look into dead eyes, dead child, their lives are banned
New grownups with an egoshooter sense
If it, it, it, goes on like this then it will turn us all off
Only brainless competition followed by heartless decisions
It takes the sense of our being
Will turn us into predators
Into a stupid, evil, callous, boring, shallow piece of shit
Is this what we want
Is this really what we want
Is this what we're proud of
This is not the world I wanted to be born in
This is not the paradise they told me I would live in
Is this our generation
Is this our god damn pride
Is this our god damn pride
