Still Alive

Hey, Hey, Hey! Do you remember me?
Your oldest friend
They all say, we are doing fine
the oldest lie

Look at yourself
You turned into someone else
Looking at myself
reaching for a turning back
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

I'm still alive
under your heel
I'm the engine of the burning car you steer
I'm still alive
Oh can't you see
Your unsustainable exhaust
is burning through all of me!

Hey, Hey, Hey! I am warning you
The oldest threat
I understand that I can't compete
top priority

Look at yourself...
You turned into someone else
Looking at myself
reaching for a turning back
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

I'm still alive
under your heel
I'm the engine of the burning car you steer
I'm still alive
Oh can't you see
Your unsustainable exhaust
is burning through all of me!

Listen up! Your mother's calling
hear her crying
Blood-thick tears, they are falling
In need of drying

Violence, rage, newspapers front page
Whips and lashes, trees turned into ashes
Innocent creatures slaughtered,
nobody really bothered
Growing children fall,
no one hears their call

How can you squeeze everything into your last breath
hoping that there is more to have!

Wake up, prepare!
You're my rightful heir
I've been your dream
but you made me become
your own nightmare

Soon we're standing at the brink of extinction
wishing for one more sunrise
Try and tell your children
tomorrow was sold to yesterday

We've been doing wrong
and that bond so strong
drags us down with her

What did we expect from fighting
imagined lines in real wars
and the compromise we reach is
to tear the world apart

We've been doing wrong
and that bond so strong
drags us down with her

Many times we've lied to ourselves
while teaching others how to help
resting on possessions
that come and go to dirt

We've been doing wrong
and that bond so strong
drags us down with her

Could we only go back
would that help?
or would we only find
another road to hell?

We've been doing wrong
and that bond so strong
makes us responsible

Looking at myself
this is my challenge

I'm still alive
under your heel
I'm the engine of the burning car you steer
I'm still alive
Oh can't you see
Your unsustainable exhaust
is burning through all of me!

I'm still alive
under your heel
I'm the engine of the burning car you steer
I'm still alive
Oh can't you see
Your unsustainable exhaust
is burning through all of me!
