lyrics

Busy hands are happy hands,
pushing things a little
to blank out.

Just say no to those sad thoughts
to brush aside your traumas
and hurts.

Being active and being focus
is nothing but a shelter
for the heart.

I swear I’m doing what I can
to find myself in time.
It doesn’t help
too much.

I’m doing my best to keep my mind
as sound as I can
But it doesn’t help
It doesn’t help.
It doesn’t help.

Busy hands are happy hands,
just pushing things a little
to blank out.

Busy hands are useless hands,
they never get your face out
of my mind.

I swear I’m doing what I can
to find myself in time.
It doesn’t help
too much.

I’m doing my best to keep my mind
as sound as I can
But it doesn’t help
It doesn’t help.
It doesn’t help.

Rack one’s brain for the whole night is simple:
try to square the circle, a conundrum to clear up
Searching to impress all those intellectuals
reciting the whole Odyssey, which you’ve learned by heart.
Spend your time becoming self-destructive
test your stamina in drinking, making gargles with your blood.
Loose all sense, get shitfaced every now and then
living in a state of oblivion, in the place you want to be.
