Kingdom of Loss

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Someone sells us toys in a cheap cartoon

Someone sells us cars in the latest Bond that's coming soon

Someone sells us trends through a sitcom star

Someone sells herself in a docu-soap that goes too far

Life on sale!

"Could someone please just tell me what happened? I mean, first we paid for fast-food that will make us all fat and tired. So then we pay for elevators, so we won't have to climb the 3 stairs up to our apartments. Then we buy freaking stairmaster machines so we can burn away while watching someone make real food on TV. Now if that doesn't make us winners, I don't know what will. I bet we would hang ourselves if the world would just cut us a slack. And now you think maybe you should see a shrink, help (me) feel alive again, yeah, that's a plan! Just tell us who to pay."

Someone sells us man in a White House speech

Then woman tightly pressed between two bouncing breasts, on a Baywatch beach

Someone sells us us everywhere I turn

Then introducing them to earn stock-points on our concern

All for sale, all for sale

It's all for sale, all for sale

Welcome down to planet Earth

please don't ask us what it's worth

you will notice that the world you found

is slightly tattered and worn down

Someone sold us every stain

now if you wish to complain

there's an open spot at 6 PM

it's when Caucasia is listening

If you're tearing down my world

Please just try to do it gently

If you're tearing down my world

Please just try to do it gently

There is love inside

For a dream that has to die

"See, it's really all about time and choice. The fast food saves us enough time to squeeze lunch in exactly when we want it. The elevators save us just a little more, the stairmaster let us choose exactly when to walk the stairs. Time is so important these days, it's becoming a fucking disease, and I guess in a way it is since it's bound to kill us all in the end.Now with all the time and money we stashed away on others' expenses, I can only assume that the tickets to hell are really expensive. For some reason, it's important to be first in line."

Someone sells us god in 2-for-1 with shame

Someone sells us war and the marketing, looks just the same

Someone sells us fear on TV each day

a shape for every taste; if the flavour's right, we gladly pay

All on sale, all on sale

We're all on sale, all on sale

Welcome to the only Earth

Please enjoy your only birth

You will learn to take more than you give

Buying scars you must live with

Someone sold us every scar

They somehow made us what we are

We all long that spot at 6 pm

But no one is really listening

No, no

Not anymore

We're all too busy buying sex, buying war

Buying self-confidence, security, insurance plans

Just buying forever

As you're tearing down our world

Please just try to do it gently

There's still love inside

As you're tearing down our world

Please just try to do it gently

There's still love inside

For the dream that has to die
