I need a new direction
Another thought to serve me right
My mind has got an infection
And there’s nothing that seems to help
I need to grow an island somewhere inside my head
Where nothing can disturb me,
Where I am free, where I’m forever set
Maybe it’s not important
If we are dead or alive.
I never ever wanna listen to the sirens
I’m alive, still alive.
Who says: «We are not guilty»
I say: «We never know the way it goes»
Changes — all around me, all inside my head
Changes — changing face, still remaining mad.
Changes — an all day routine.
Hard to enjoy the good times,
Decay is what I feel
God, it’s makin’ me porous, vanish in haze,
I wonder, wonder if I’m real.
Newflash — under the new regulations
Non-conformity will be punished by law.
Relax — and don’t forget to unplug your TV set!
Sigh no more!
For you, you are not guilty,
No, no, you’re not responsible at all.
Changes — all around me, all inside my head
Changes — changing face, still remaining mad.
Changes — an all day routine.
Changes — all around me, all inside my head
Changes — changing face, still remaining mad.
Changes — changing systems, still insane.
Changes — but the madness will remain.
Who is the man who says I’m never gonna die?
It’s a lie, it’s a lie!
And who is the man who says, I never have to sigh?
It’s a lie, it’s a lie!
Oppression, resistance
We will never change our way,
The island in my mind is growin’
More and more, day after day.
Changes — all around me now, all inside me now
Changes — wanna cry no more, sigh no more.
