Lotus
Woke up before the morning sun
天还没亮我就爬了起来
I found it tucked beneath the hills
在山脚下发现了太阳
I sat and watched it rise
静静地坐着看它升起
It hit the sky and burst to flames
看它冲上云霄，像火球一样燃烧
The lotus flower's
像朵莲花似的

I've got this feeling
我总觉着，
It's gonna stop
这一切差不多要结束了。
Driven by religion

Running backwards down a one way road
在笔直的大路上倒退
A course collision, split decision
鸡毛蒜皮被贴上争议，思想早已分崩离析
Tryin' to save your soul

Is just a fancy word for murder

I've got this feeling
我总觉着，
It's gonna stop
一切都差不多要结束了。
A billion faces running round my head
成千上万的面孔在脑海里闪个没完
All got opinions but the don't mean ****

You can't mark my words they'll put a spin on it
你可以记住我说的，然后去对号入座吧
They say it's all been done
“没问题的！”
Look outside the box my friend
醒醒吧老哥

Needs to be stopped
该收敛收敛了
A billion faces running round my head
成千上万的面孔在脑海里闪个没完
All got opinions but the don't mean ****
每个人都指东道西，说话没个屁响
Keep droppin' bombs untill the whole world's dead
反对！反对！自生自灭去吧

Fell into a daze
陷入了晕眩和迷茫
And found my mind was gone and laid to waste
我的精神早已死亡，早被丢进垃圾堆了
A battle ground indeed
看看那些鲜血染红的战场吧

我就这么看着太阳落下山
And tear you through the ground
被大地撕了个粉碎
The hate the drives us

Needs to be stopped
该省省了吧
