Otep - Oh, So Surreal lyrics
rate me<BR>
I wish I didn't know<br>
What I know<br>
<br>
I wish I could pretend<br>
Like they do<br>
<br>
If I could<br>
I would<br>
<br>
Smile &<br>
Forget<br>
<br>
& there's a child<br>
Out on the battlefield<br>
<br>
A pistol in each hand<br>
He trades a kill for a meal<br>
<br>
& it's oh, so surreal<br>
& it's oh, so surreal<br>
<br>
& there's a man<br>
Standing on top of a hill<br>
<br>
Screaming freedom for some<br>
But all others must kneel<br>
<br>
& it's oh, so surreal<br>
& it's oh, so surreal<br>
<br>
Apathy is so hip<br>
Everyone's doing it<br>
<br>
In your sterile life<br>
In your sterile life<br>
<br>
A little girl's lost<br>
On the streets of L.A.<br>
<br>
She complains about the sharks<br>
But plays the part of the prey<br>
<br>
& it's oh, so surreal<br>
& it's oh, so surreal<br>
<br>
& children<br>
Will go to sleep hungry tonight<br>
<br>
While our dumpsters overflow<br>
With our careless delights<br>
<br>
& it's oh, so surreal<br>
& it's oh, so surreal<br>
<br>
Apathy is so hip<br>
Everyone's doing it<br>
<br>
In your sterile life<br>
In your sterile life<br>
<br>
Apathy is so hip<br>
Everyone's doing it<br>
<br>
In your sterile life<br>
In your sterile life<br>
<br>
(Antiseptic ways)<br>
<br>
I don't care<br>
But I lie<br>
Never feel<br>
Never try<br>
Empty people<br>
Empty steeple<br>
<br>
If all the oppotunists<br>
& leaders of men<br>
Were forced to fight<br>
In the wars they begin<br>
<br>
If we could starve the rich<br>
& hurt the cruel<br>
<br>
If we could take revenge<br>
& leave it all in ruins<br>
<br>
What would you do ?<br>
What would you do ?<br>
<br>
What would you do<br>
If we did it to YOU ?<br>
<br>
Apathy is so hip<br>
<br>
Now, there's silence<br>
Now like the lips of the dead<br>
<br>
Now, there's silence<br>
Turning inside my head<br>
<br>
Smile & forget<br>
Pretend like they do<br>
Smile & forget<br>
Pretend like they do<br>
<br>
Apathy is so<br>
Everybody's doing it<br>
Apathy is so<br>
Everybody's doing it<br>
<br>
(& children<br>
Will go to sleep hungry tonight)<br>
<BR><BR>
