Disconnected must stay out of touch
they'll silence you when you think too much
where you've grown up
where you see what you've done

You wonder what he would be like
found among those missing ones,
where you've grown up
where you see what you've done

Post code wars lack sense
kids marching in the city of blades
where you've grown up
where you see what you've done

there were things I didn't know

on an island with our families
but then came the military

we're less than them
still less than them
we're less than them

and I am a powerless ant, a bit of a joke,

or gold, no matter how you vote

VII.
You better watch your mouth
'cos they will go through your garbage
they will push you aside
and one day you'll be gone
'cos proof means nothing at all

You should be careful what you say
'cos they will go through your garbage
they will push you aside
would you care when I'm gone
'an idealistic one'
