lyrics

Eye To Eye

dropping bombs will support the election
drawing attention into the wrong direction
suddenly seeing the mirrors reflection
recognising it's fraction
telling us it's terrorism we've got to fight
thinking that none of us is too bright
propaganda makes the individual go down
hiding the colour of your policy: it's brown

you call this freedom, i do not
you think you can fool me, i find your wrist cut
don't you feel ill?
taking the pill

we're livin' in this backbreaking motel
it seems to us like a heartshaking hotel
realise we're caught in this groove
got to recognise it's the system we've got to move
keeping people dumb with no proper education
two-class war is what follows in such a nation
making your voters looking like morons
is killing ok? oh no! oh no! come on!

the machine is working so smooth
it works 'cause we got caught in the groove
watch out that you don't get hit
sitting eye to eye with a pyramid

always we obeyed the rules as they came
finally something appeared which is shame
breaking the cycle we set as our goal
never again we'll be caught in this black hole
the system we commited is defect
we gotta change it with a deep impact
to stop'em continue the pain to inflict
predict the conflict
movements in motion is what will turn up
the streetfighting rebels will act and jump up
our approriate outcome is freedom of soul
and calming the sreaming crowds in the mole

you call this freedom, i do not
you think you can fool me, i find your wrist cut
don't you feel ill?
taking the pill

the machine is working so smooth
it works 'cause we got caught in the groove
watch out that you don't get hit
sitting eye to eye with a pyramid

i will not participate
no

eye to eye with a pyramid

the machine is working so smooth
it works 'cause we got caught in the groove
watch out that you don't get hit
sitting eye to eye with a pyramid

Down By Contact Cologne, Germany

Sprechgesang is nich Metal und Gitarren sind nich HipHop und Hardcore is eh ganz anders?

Scheiss auf Schubladen, denn Down By Contact zerlegen die ganze Kommode in Einzelteile. Freiheit liegt nicht im bloßen Brechen von Konventionen, wirkliche Freiheit fängt da an, wo Konventionen nicht mehr interessieren. Die Frage ist nicht, was als richtig oder falsch GILT, sondern was sich richtig ANFÜHLT. ... more
