This is one of the songs we like on CD so much but we do rarely play it live.
It simply is one of those album songs you play 5-10 times in the beginning when it is brand new and then you just don´t do it anymore, can´t even tell why??
For those who have bought the Bangarang CD or LP, we have a spelling error in the title of that track on the back =P
These words are pretty combinable with the song "Archivists" though it demands more action and rebellion.
lyrics
Forced to conform to antiquated traditions
Enslaved to obey oldfashioned norms and misleading visions
We are pawns in their games We play our roles we play them safe
Listen up right now if you crave for relief
Listen up right now if you seek for release
from all those cultural boundaries...
Raised to rely on society's majority
hence we still cling to an obsolete morality
We are pawns in their games We play our roles we play them safe
Don't you listen when they say
Don't you listen when they tell you to think realistically
Don't you fall prey when they give you a fake right to speak
Lies lies lies so you mourn more quietly
The future is not prearranged, only we can bring the change!
