lyrics

they push you down to check if you would care to stand up
and after you refuse to - there has to be nothing (left of you)
and on and on - they approach you with charming requests
and make it quick 'cause they want it to be made in a week ... or something

chip chop chip

they push you down to know if you would start to protest
but you don't know what it's like, cause you're so fucking obedient
and even when you drown, you know, you're not to be helped
you're not alone but this raft is not to be left (so, sail on, plankton)

chip chop chip

CHORUS:
sometimes you wish you were dead
and you get all sick ideas in your head
and sometimes you rather be mad
cause they like you, cause they like you like that

they push you down so hard - you cannot push yourself up
but these are hands that feed so there are bones to be thrown too
eventually, they say, you might get a longer lead (gotta get something to cheer yourself up)
but you just want it (all) to stop. stop it right here.

stop it right now
