Look around at the world today
Our precious home withers in decay
What once was whole is now torn and stained
Do you wonder how it got this way?
The years will come
The years will go
Kingdoms rise and fall
The time has come to take control
The world belongs to us
Long ago, a choice was made
The few would rule, the rest obey
Now we are taught how to behave
Don't question why, and don't complain
A single drop of water becomes a mighty fall
People of the earth
The world belongs to us
Now it's time to demonstrate
That you and I can make history
Tear down the walls that separate
To make us weak and keep us afraid

Eyes upon you, far away
Presence felt, every day
Wake up now it’s time to rise
You’re too scared to open your eyes
All your warmth has turned to cold
All your stories have been told
Here again, they tighten the chain
Can you fathom this refrain?
Restricting you by unscrupulous means
Black eyes pierce into your deepest dreams
A presence felt, no other way
Binds you to your final day
As they stand and stare
Unease you cannot bear
Escape now if you dare
It doesn’t matter where
They’ll be watching you
They’ll be stalking you
You become aware
The path leads to nowhere
A state of disrepair
Wallowing in despair
As they’re watching you
As they’re stalking you
From far away
They’re watching you from far away
You feel their presence every day
The omnipresent entities
Experimental Identities
You are the warmth, they’re the cold
Forced to fit into their mold
Your misery will still remain
But bitterly you can’t complain
Unafraid, the shadows cry
Blacker than the falling sky
You feel their presence every day
They’re watching you from far away
As I stand and stare
Unease you cannot bear
Escape now if you dare
It doesn’t matter where
I’ll be watching you
I'll be stalking you
You become aware
The path leads to nowhere
A state of disrepair
Wallowing in despair
As we’re watching you
As we’re stalking you
From far away

Tankard Haus Birmingham, UK
This too shall pass.
Tankard Haus recommends:
Check out the debut single 'On The Edge' by XENOBEAT! This British aggrotech band was formed by two of the same members that originally formed Tankard Haus, but a much darker and heavier element.
