Your Green Is Paying My Red

from In Search Of An End by Guthmensch

/

lyrics

I can’t find warmth in your near, secureness unattainable
I can’t find meaning in myself, but there is nothing else around here
The fire in your eyes has long gone and yet I’m holding out in fear
Never knowing what it feels like, truly being alone – is love just unsustainable?

Cold steel driven into flesh, cruel but numb, astounded in horror
Warm blood dripping down your cheeks, the bitter taste of iron on your lips

But all this horror is so far from here, it’s not my country on the TV
No soldiers breaking through my windows and no violence on the streets
It’s not our kids in the backyard there, playing with shrapnel
Not my life on the line each day I could not be further away (they can go to hell)

I can’t feel sorrow through the TV screen, and even if I could, what the fuck am I supposed to do to help them, I can’t do anything
Barely my fault that they voted bad, they should just figure it out by themselves
I got my own fucking problems, and that damn phone-battery is dying again

Blood flees from the pale, lifeless body - another casualty without a face
Until everything’s turning black - your green is paying my red
