lyrics

(english below)

Když v záři reflektorů - žijící sen - brodí se konfetama, po kolena utopen
Když nepadnoucí kostým - líže zem - na velikém pódiu, konfrontace nevkusem
Když hlas je nahrazený - playbackem - vydávaný za pravý, aby se líbíl všem
Když sterilita valící se - éterem - pohřbívá mě za živa, na dně hrobu uložen

Popová kultura, popová kultura – oprátky upleteny, šibenice postaveny
Popová kultura, popová kultura – propadliště otevřeny a davy zešílely
Alternativa, alternativa – infikace rakovinou, buňky co tiše hynou
Alternativa, alternativa – co v punku zrodila se, plivance na výloze

Jen vykřičet… jen vykřičet co srdce tíží
Jen vykřičet… jen vykřičet z ohrady z mříží

Když v malinkaté kobce – tmou zahalen - vřeštící kytary, vibrující prostorem
Když hluk je určujícím - faktorem - šlápoty na stropě, neboli „roof of fame“
Když hodnoty neprolezlé - byznysem - ve spřízněnosti duší, cítím se být člověkem
Když profackován – životem – vím kam mohu utéct a je to právě sem

Alternativa, alternativa – infikace rakovinou, buňky co tiše hynou
Alternativa, alternativa – co v punku zrodila se, plivance na výloze
Alternativa, alternativa

Alternative

In a blaze of lights living a dream, wading through confetti drowned to knees
When a non-fitting costume is licking the ground, on a big stage, confrontation by a poor taste
When the voice is replaced by playback impersonating the true one to appeal to everyone
When sterility rolling through the ether it's burying me alive

Pop culture, pop culture - nooses tied, gallows built
Pop culture, pop culture - the trapdoor open and the crowds go mad
Alternative, alternative - cancer infection, cells quietly dying
Alternative, alternative - born in punk, spit on a shop windows

Just shout out… just shout out what makes heavy hearts
Just shout out… just shout out of the pen of jail bars

When in a tiny dungeon, shrouded in a darkness, screaming guitars, vibrating the space
When noise is the determining factor, footprints on the roof, or "roof of fame"
When values are not twisted by business, in an alliance of souls I feel to be human
When slapped by life I know where I can run away, and it's just here

Alternative, alternative - cancer infection, cells quietly dying
Alternative, alternative - born in punk, spit on a shop windows
Alternative, alternative
