lyrics

IT'S IN YOUR HEAD (English)

If wading through the bullshit seems to be a full-time job
And every chance at happiness is stepped on by some slob
If apathy and rudeness are reflected everywhere
And you would die of shock to meet another soul who cares
Hold on to what you know is true
What's coming at you comes from you
Do not forget why we're all here
The answer's clear
If love for fellow men and women seems a trite cliche
And tolerance for others' flaws ebbs lower every day
If life exhausts your energy and leaves you without hope
And you are sliding backward down depression's slippery slope
Hold on to those who you can trust
You'll leave the losers in the dust
Just like all things, this too will pass
It just won't last
If people seem like robots with computer chips for souls
And every baby starts its life from six feet down a hole
Before you throw your hands up or complain that you're not free
Wake up and realize perception is reality
Hold on to knowing right from wrong
What doesn't kill you makes you strong
Why wait for heaven 'til you're dead?
It's in your head
