Individualtiy and Other Delusions Lyrics


Now you became a cog, a peace in the machinery,

which serves up apparently mental fuel - day by day,

they let us forget.

Individuality and other delusions.

It comes around, elegant and packed up sweet,

the trend to hand over control. Outsourcing.

The knowledge about ourselves is passed to dull ignorance.

And gets eclipsed by simple brutal doing,

we are becoming "more equal than equal".

Simultaneous there's a trend to uniqueness. Farcical.

Societies can't grow more individualistic

and more equal at the same time.

Nor can these two conflicting trends coincide in one mind.

You don't mind.

Could it be, that it makes us different,

not to buy everything at **.

I guess not - hopefully not.

In fact it is a sham uniqueness.

It has the task to give us the lost sentiment

of being someone special and unique,

although we are embedded in machineries.

Humans no longer know from themselves,

therefore some take flight in superficialities,

which can't keep their promise.
