Lyrics for Coerced Coexistence

I'll take you on a ride As a part-owner to my pain Our ideals they collide Coerced coexistence I fought the world today - postpone my birth again We stumble on and one - but bound to die alone Pain - I'm selling my soul today Pain - I need some sympathy This infiltrates my brain "In the sunshine the sun is mine" Pitiless wanderer Close your eyes and bow your head Grotesque thoughts in a line Threw my wings onto the blazing sun Smile stretched on old trees Eternal Grining jester masque Pain - I'm selling my soul today Pain - I need some sympathy Don't hurt a fly they all sing We're just ants in a great big play Commercialize-infect-annihilate-progress Visualize-inhale-pretend-betray I'll take you on a ride As a part-owner to my pain Pain - I'm selling my soul today Pain - I need some sympathy Don't hurt a fly they all sing We're just ants in a great big play Commercialize-infect-annihilate-progress Visualize-inhale-pretend-betray
