When he's sitting behind grey walls so naked All the barbed wires round his life Twisted into a rope without compa**ion for him Give a fool enough rope and he'll hang himself For the jailers it's clear they act in the law's name They can't conceive what's right, what's wrong indeed Wretched figures through spyholes ghostly echoes announce The trap door to hell can't be far away Striver stands, lies and sits in his cell and is full of fear When someone unlocks his cell without an actual key Scheleton's eyes are smiling, the smile of eternity He enters the room in order to explain what's coming Now the die is cast, it is on the record Call it fate, call it d**h It's just a time game
Can you see what it means to be called to account To be called to account by society They've got their codes and ethics, logic laws But they don't give a single damn for me Striver stood, lay and sat in his cell and was full of fear When someone unlocked his cell without an actual key Scheleton's eyes are smiling, the smile of eternity He entered the room in order to explain what was coming Now the die is cast, it is on the record Call it fate, call it d**h It's just a time game They've got their codes and ethics, logic laws They've got their codes and ethics, logic laws They've got their codes and ethics, logic laws But they don't give a single damn for me
