Lyrics In Flames – Vacuum

The yesterday we loved speak of tomorrow
The burden of man is that time never takes a pause
We live from Monday to Sunday but we forget what it means
Then a ghost comes to visit and we tell stories from tabloids

Call all your friends
Watch fake photos
From a made up vacation
Speaking in tongues about ancient artifacts

We steal from beggars and ask for understanding
We lie, rape, steal and murder to make tonights headlines

Trust the system
Make your contribution
Smile, applaud, love, hail
The weaker you get the stronger they become

Listen in silence
Hear a voice
How far are we ready to take this?

Listen in silence
Hear a voice
Before it all crumbles

Lie, rape, steal and murder
Smile, applaud, love, hail

Gather in front of the TV
Exploding sympathy
The weatherman, our trust
Our punctual company

We steal from beggars and ask for understanding
We lie, rape, steal and murder to make tonights headlines

Trust the system
Make your contribution

Listen in silence
Hear a voice
How far are we ready to take this?

Listen in silence
Hear a voice
Before it all crumbles

Lie, rape, steal and murder, smile, applaud, love, hail

Listen in a silence, hear a voice
How far are we ready to take this?
Listen in silence, hear a voice
Before it all crumbles
