How much do we have to kill until we understand the weight of it?
How much do we have to destroy until we can feel relieved?
Saying “I’m not giving this to anyone” with a sly face like we don’t belong to anyone else
Monopolizing it all for ourselves

Even you say it:
You say “I understand”
Perhaps you’re a demon in human form, right?
Thinking about nothing but taking a breath
Don’t keep on spouting those lies

Let’s pretend to be dumb and laugh on
But it hurts my ears and has no substance
Like the nonsense of a lonely person we say “I hate being alone” and
do nothing but escape

Even you’re the same
Saying “I’m not scared”
Since who-knows-when you’ve become god
Blaming everything on someone else and pretending you can’t see
You’re just running away
Don’t disappoint me

The vow was broken
The moment you were born
You’ve been deceived
By a wicked person from somewhere
The vow was broken
By someone’s irrationality
It’s been trampled upon
It’s been trampled upon

Even you say it:
You say “I understand”
Perhaps you’re a demon in human form, right?
Thinking about nothing but taking a breath
Don’t keep on spouting those lies
