Modern Slave

(album: C'est La Vie - 2020)

Let me escape
This chronic feeling sinking into me
When I'm gazing at the black empty skies
Bring me closer to the firmament's light
And just don't let me come down
Don't let me come down

Take me away far from what eyes can see
Before my reveries come to an end

Don't wanna be a modern slave
Of this wall-less prison
I've seen enough of the man-made hell
Masking the horizon

Don't bring me back to the ground
Life looks better up there
Far from the noises of the world
(Far from the hell on the ground)
Don't bring me back down
Let me get far away from...
Far from the hell on the ground

Show me there's something more than...
These open graveyards of metal
Take me away from this wasteland built on lies
Mirrors of our fucking greed
Reflect of our vanity

Drowned in the crowd
Consumed by the world's effervescence
This whole system's a circus...
I don't ever wanna come back down

Don't bring me back to the ground
Life looks better up there
Far from the noises of the world
(Far from the hell on the ground)
Don't bring me back down
Let me get far away from...
Far from the hell on the ground
