lirik lagu sleepers' guilt - kleshas
greed, hate and ignorance are the evil seeds
in a world filled with empty receptacles
a fertile soil
the ones awake, the others sleeping and unaware
letting grow the tree of kilesa
lying in front of your tv screen
you don’t realise the threat
half-asleep as so many others
the seeds dig their roots
deep into your doped mind
demons of defilement
let the tree rise
greed is taking hold of you
caught in this vicious circle
you’re only longing for more
possession becoming your new dream
subst-tute your freedom for shiny things
letting grow the tree of kilesa
the seeds becoming trees,
becoming whole woods
ingraining deeper and deeper
taking possession of your kind
you’re too tired to resist
too scared to fight
there’s no resistance
the tree can start to grow
it seizes your thoughts
starts controlling them
where does this poison come from?
created by mankind
corporate society’s
consumption machinery
supported by all us sleepers who let this happen
supported by all us sleepers who let this be
you start forgetting about your dreams
you start forgetting about your wishes
so who’s to blame? who wanted this?
who messed it up? where did it all go wrong?
it’s all of us who accepted the seed
it’s all of us sleepers
sleepers’ guilt
no goals, no hope, no resistance
mechanical consumption your only aim and purpose
blame it on yourself you mindless sleeper
blinded by all those meaningless goods
the poison is creeping into your mind
they don’t want you to feel
they don’t want you to think
they are feeding this tree of self-destruction
ignoring the signs
hating yourself,
greedy for more
you devour insignificant music
brainwashing information
tv and internet your new religion
acquired knowledge is dumped for smattering
fed with disposable goods
blinded by senseless entertainment
led by corporate society
longing for the good life you’ve been promised
you could wake up, take a risk
take the lead, start using your voice
break free from your eternal sleep
break free and stand tall
you prefer gathering the rotten fruits
fruits of fear and despair
you prefer gathering the rotten fruits
your life is full filled with greed, hate and despair
