It's not easy to avoid who we ought to be   We're sighing then we're dying      We're only human with our eyes closed   We're only children of the sun   Maybe we have forgotten or maybe it has always been like this   Maybe we have forgotten that this machine kills      Are busy sighing, then you're truly dying   Do you still pretend to hear the angels cry   Are you still suffering or is it okay now   I can't believe this one track mind   Emancipation is a two-edged sword   This is not what I call freedom      Imperfect      Come a little closer, little closer   Hear me plead      Have you seen the first dawn of a new tomorrow   Do you still pretend to stand branded by the light   Now we're still suffering and it ain't okay at all   I can't believe we're so small   Still not what I would call freedom
