Sick of This World

Not sick enough to tell it...

I’m afraid of the world and I’m not afraid to say it

I’m ashamed of the world and I’m not ashamed to say it

I am sick of this world, but not sick enough to tell it

I’ve had enough of this world and I’m not afraid to blow it

By the push of a button the world will bow at your feet

Run away down the long forgotten street

Place your bets in the Russian roulette

Spin of the wheel will decide your fate

We’re all prisoners of the past and we never had a choice

Innocence bred to save the world and take away our voice

Citizens of the world are the citizens disciplined

Subjected to the fights of patriotic idiots
