Struggle, a warfare, a warfare on the far aspect
On the opposite aspect of the planet
And I’ve acquired warfare, a warfare, a warfare proper behind my eyes
Proper behind ’em identical to a headache

So I activate the information
Flip off the information

Each second, our collective hearts break
All collectively, each single head shakes
Shut your eyes, however it will not go away
Activate, flip off the information
Each second, our collective hearts brеak
All collectively, evеry single head shakes
Shut your eyes, however it will not go away
Activate, flip off the information

Far, I am far, so removed from the frontline
Fairly the alternative, I am secure inside
However I fear and I give cash and I really feel ineffective behind this laptop
And that is simply barely scratched the floor of my thoughts

So I activate the information
Flip off the information
Activate the information
Flip off the information

Each second, our collective hearts break
All collectively, each single head shakes
Shut your eyes, however it will not go away
Activate, flip off the information
Each second, our collective hearts break
All collectively, each single head shakes
Shut your eyes, however it will not go away
Activate, flip off the information

Exploitative, performative
Informative and we do not know the half of it
It is restorable, deplorable
Exorable and, on their lonesome, we referred to as it regular
Exploitative, performative
Informative and we do not know the half of it
Restorable, deplorable
Exorable and, on their lonesome, we referred to as it regular
On their own, we referred to as it regular

Each second, our collective hearts break
All collectively, each single head shakes
Shut your eyes, however it will not go away
Activate, flip off the information
Each second, our collective hearts break
All collectively, each single head shakes
Shut your eyes, however it will not go away
Activate, flip off the information
