Burn - Refused

How does it feel to burn?

Drowning in self pity, convulsing in self hate

All your life’s revolving around your fate

Lost and confused, who to believe?

Commercial Gods shows us the way to be

You’ve got it all but what do you really gain?

Just mindless consumption to numb your brain

You’ve got it all but what have you really got?

Just obsessive thoughts that will make your brain rot

Time, time, time passes by

As you live your life in those foolish lies

Try to find happiness in eating, watching, buying

While time is ticking and flying

I said time passes by

While as in quicksand you keep sinking down

In your search for joy you can no longer hide

'Cause happiness is just happiness when you are happy inside

How does it feel to burn?

A materialistic world, a world based on greed

Where personal pleasure are decided by others need

Feed from the start the ideal life to get

You’re trying so hard but you ain’t found nothing yet

We all need a fluid to keep us warm inside

But we don’t need those things to hide behind

Happiness is an emotion, it’s not an object

But you’re too insecure to face the fact

How does it feel to burn?

Drowning in self pity, convulsing in self hate

All your life’s revolving around your fate

Lost and confused, who to believe?
