Cornered Love - Ewert and the Two Dragons

Reconstructed mind of mine

They call it the new way of thinking

I’ll become a man in no time

It’s the system that’s controlling my moves

Hiding from this is a crime

I can’t let morality down

I can’t let myself soft

I have no time of my own

They’re watching me and

Making sure I follow orders

I serve my country, my town

Constant reminding we’re gonna last

Is what I hear in patriotic speeches

«We must protect our homeland»

Even if I don’t want to, I’m not asked

Even if I don’t care, I’m forced

I’m paying my dept to elderly

I’m honouring the ones who’ve died

I’m earning my place in society

I’m part of this national spine

While I’m not sure of the side

And even though they’re

Propably trying to avoid me feel

I still do nothing else but that

I still do nothing else but that

It’s a cornered love

It’s a fight against the world

But we try and we try and we try

It was never meant to work

Pain doesn’t go by, it’s easier for mind

Heart finds it harder to survive

Three months of agony, and I get it out

For the first time, free evening

Air of freedom dries my mouth

It’s not like I wear jeans or something

Personality has been teared down

I’m a marked man when I walk around it’s

Easy with spotty disguise

I’m a thing, a thing without

Identity, not supposed to recognise

Or separate me from the crowd

And even though they’re

Propably trying to avoid me feel

I still do nothing else but that

I still do nothing else but that

It’s a cornered love

It’s a fight against the world

But we try and we try and we try

It was never meant to work

Pain doesn’t go by, it’s easier for mind

Heart finds it harder

It’s a cornered love

It’s a fight against the world

But we try and we try and we try

It was never meant to work

Pain doesn’t go by, it’s easier for mind

Heart finds it harder to survive

Yes, it’s a fast-food diner

You came with such a short notice

Is that what I prayed for at nights?

Is that what I hoped out of this?

Meet you here under those lights
