Born in a Mourning Hall (lyrics)

In fact it was close to a real fallout everything's under control
the speaker said with a serious smile behind his mask he knew the truth
I'll bring a new age of better ways the TV preacher said just pay today, pay today

World's dressed in black on earth's judgement day and I?
I know it can't go on forbidden signs increase
I'm sitting still at home and watching

Born in a mourning hall pale clouds feared the unborn child
then it grew up with growing plans of suicide
born in a mourning hall shadows left the fear inside
that Peter Pan will never reach the other side

It's frightening exciting to sit at home
and watch the burning fields
get hypnotized by the TV snake

Obey and work hard and feel no anger
just sympathy for the higher class
there's no chance in changing things

cause I am born in a mourning hall silent cries ran out
when the cradle breaks broken dreams were unheared on
the other side born in a mourning hall
shadows left the fear in the new born child
that Peter Pan will never reach, the other side

(Solo)

And I'm a part of the machine a puppet on the strings
a rebel, once, now I'm an old man

Oh, I know this can't go on but the ghost called fear inside
lames my tongue, my nerves, my mind eternal fall down someone cut the strings off
I can't move to get back courage
I've to face the truth but not today, goodbye

Born in a mourning hall caught inside a web called life
the only way to get out soon is suicide
born in a mourning hall pale souls built a frozen world
infected brains will never reach the other side
