We wanne go fast - We wanne quick fix now
Something that will last - no need to think about how
Just something, anything -
To make our problems disappear
We wanna clean slate - and we wanne look great
Something that will hide the messed up person inside
Just something, anything -
To make a good impression on you
As long as anybody plays along - We will feel like we belong
That is all we wanne feel - no need to be real
Just be like us, believe in us
Just follow us and like us
And we will play along - keep playing the game - now
Don’t stick your neck out - or stand out from the crowd
Do something like the rest of us - blend in and don’t discuss
Something, anything
That makes us doubt who are and what we do
You wanne go fast - you wanna quick fix now
Something that will hide - the messed up person inside
Something, anything
To make a good impression on us
As long as anybody plays along - We will feel like we belong
That is all we wanne feel - no need to be real
Just be like us, believe in us
Just follow us and like us
And we will play along - keep playing the game - now
(Instrumental 1x)
We want YOU the play game
We need you to feel the same
Just blend in, play along - and you will never feel alone
This is - our promise - We tell no lies - we just close our eyes
No need to be real, be like us and like us
And we will play along
Keep playing the game now

There are not much albums in my life, that had an impact on me like this wonderful, poetical and well written and produced piece of art and music.
While I still struggle to define the very genre, I know one thing:
The lyrics, the musician behind them and the way of gently touching my mind, changed my perception of music. DrKeyP
