See the devil on the doorstep now, my, oh my 00:07

Telling everybody, oh, just how to live their lives 00:13

Sliding down the information highway 00:20

Buying in just like a bunch of fools 00:23

Time is ticking, and we can't go back, my, oh my 00:27

What about the world today? 00:33

What about the place that we call home? 00:37

We've never been so many 00:40

And we've never been so alone 00:42

Keep watching from your picket fence 00:46

You keep talking but it makes no sense 00:49

You say we're not responsible 00:52

But we are, we are 00:55

You wash your hands and come out clean 00:59

Fail to recognise the enemies within 01:02

You say we're not responsible 01:05

But we are, we are, we are 01:08

01:14

One step forward making two steps back, my oh my 01:19

Riding piggy on the bad boy's back for life 01:26

Lining up for the grand illusion 01:32

No answers for no questions asked 01:36

Lining up for the execution without knowing why 01:39

Keep watching from your picket fence 01:45

You keep talking but it makes no sense 01:48

You say we're not responsible 01:51

But we are, we are 01:54

You wash your hands and come out clean 01:58

But fail to recognise the enemies within 02:01

You say we're not responsible 02:04

But we are, we are 02:07

It's all about the power and by taking control 02:11

Breaking the rule and breaking the soul 02:14

They suck us dry 'til there's nothing left 02:18

My oh my, my oh my 02:21

What about the world today? 02:25

What about the place that we call home? 02:28

We've never been so many 02:32

But we've never been so alone 02:34

02:39

So alone 02:48

Keep watching from your picket fence 02:49

You keep talking but it makes no sense 02:52

You say we're not responsible 02:55

But we are, we are 02:58

You wash your hands and come out clean 03:02

But fail to recognise the enemies within 03:05

You say we're not responsible 03:08

But we are, we are, we are 03:11

It's all about the power and by taking control (we are) 03:15

Breaking the rule (we are, we are) 03:18

Breaking the soul (we are) 03:20

They suck us dry 'til there's nothing left (we are, we are) 03:21

My oh my, my oh my 03:25

We are, we are (it's all) 03:28

We are, we are (take control) 03:31

We are, we are 03:34

It's all about the power and by taking control 03:38

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

See the devil on the doorstep now, my, oh my

Telling everybody, oh, just how to live their lives

Sliding down the information highway

Buying in just like a bunch of fools

Time is ticking, and we can't go back, my, oh my

What about the world today?

What about the place that we call home?

We've never been so many

And we've never been so alone

Keep watching from your picket fence

You keep talking but it makes no sense

You say we're not responsible

But we are, we are

You wash your hands and come out clean

Fail to recognise the enemies within

You say we're not responsible

But we are, we are, we are

...

One step forward making two steps back, my oh my

Riding piggy on the bad boy's back for life

Lining up for the grand illusion

No answers for no questions asked

Lining up for the execution without knowing why

Keep watching from your picket fence

You keep talking but it makes no sense

You say we're not responsible

But we are, we are

You wash your hands and come out clean

But fail to recognise the enemies within

You say we're not responsible

But we are, we are

It's all about the power and by taking control

Breaking the rule and breaking the soul

They suck us dry 'til there's nothing left

My oh my, my oh my

What about the world today?

What about the place that we call home?

We've never been so many

But we've never been so alone

...

So alone

Keep watching from your picket fence

You keep talking but it makes no sense

You say we're not responsible

But we are, we are

You wash your hands and come out clean

But fail to recognise the enemies within

You say we're not responsible

But we are, we are, we are

It's all about the power and by taking control (we are)

Breaking the rule (we are, we are)

Breaking the soul (we are)

They suck us dry 'til there's nothing left (we are, we are)

My oh my, my oh my

We are, we are (it's all)

We are, we are (take control)

We are, we are

It's all about the power and by taking control
