Select language to translate this lyric
Close your eyes, Pretend that nothing happened And believe that thus Truth will hide
Close your mind, Pretend that youâre ignorant And believe that thus you escape the martyrsâ side
But when the truth is stuck in your throat, Bad breath Are you a victim, a scapegoat? Bad faith And when your life is stuck in your throat, Bad death Are you born to survive? Bad fate
Shut your ears Pretend no ghosts haunt your heads And towards future pasts take a ride
Shut your dreams, Pretend youâre only human And believe the child in you has die
But when the truth is stuck in your throat, Bad breath Are you a victim, a scapegoat? Bad faith And when your life is stuck in your throat, Bad death Are you born to survive? Bad fate
And youâre free like smoke When youâd breathe, you choke
Lock your heart, Pretend youâre nothing human And disguise cowardice as pride
Lock your wrongs, Get confused in denials And reject on others what you canât abide
But when the truth is stuck in your throat, Bad breath Are you a victim, a scapegoat? Bad faith And when your life is stuck in your throat, Bad death Are you born to survive? Bad fate
And youâre free like smoke When youâd breathe, you choke
