They'll use a saw to cut through your breastbone
They'll take a jack and break your ribs apart
Ah but there never was a weakness
In the muscles working ceaseless
Strength was not the problem with your heart
You made a trade to conquer your wilderness
They took your time, you took what they paid
Ah but you never saw reactions
Or really heard the satisfaction
From the people who could use the things you made
Chorus:
So it's like you carry all the water
On a long desert trip
And then you die of dehydration
When you never take a sip
You had a place, a house in a neighborhood
It was okay, but still you dreamed of more
More than the lives that grew around you
More than the friends that finally found you
There was a grander life that you were working for
Chorus
They said your heart always was strong enough
To do the work it was meant to do
And the attack you underwent
Was from a lack of nourishment
Your heart was starving for the blood it gave to you
Your heart is dying for the life you're pushing through
Chorus
So they'll use a saw to cut through your breastbone
They'll take a jack and break your ribs apart
Ah but there never was a weakness
In the muscles working ceaseless
Strength was not the problem with your heart
They'll use a saw to cut through your breastbone(Attention! Attention!
Trente-neuf, quarante)
Imagine a war which everyone won
Permanent holiday in endless sun
Peace without wisdom, one steals to achieve
Relentlessly, pretending to believe
Attitudes are materialistic, positive or frankly realistic
Which is terribly old-fashioned, isn't it?
Or isn't it?

(DJ Culture) Let's pretend
Living in a satellite fantasy
Waiting for the night to end
(DJ Culture DJ D)
Let's pretend we won a war
Like a football match, ten-nil the score
Anything's possible, we're on the same side
Or otherwise on trial for our lives
I've been around the world for a number of reasons
I've seen it all, the change of seasons
And I, my Lord, may I say nothing?

(DJ Culture) Let's pretend
Living in a satellite fantasy
Waiting for the night to end (DJ Culture)
(DJ Culture) Dance with me
(DJ Culture) Let's pretend
Living in a satellite fantasy
Wondering who's your friend (DJ Culture)
Now as a matter of pride
Indulge yourself, your every mood
No feast-days, or fast-days, or days of abstinence intrude
Consider for a minute who you are (consider/who you are)
What you'd like to change, never mind the scars (change)
Bury the past, empty the shelf (bury the past)
Decide it's time to reinvent yourself (it's time)
Like Liz before Betty, she after Sean
Suddenly your missing, then you're reborn
And I, my Lord, may I say nothing?
