JINJER LYRICS

1. On the Top

Unsatisfied need makes you push forward
Greed, striving for its reward
Like a racer on the mark, you burn your rubber
Like a starving shark looking for its supper
You run, run, run, run, run
Until it makes no sense
Your feet are sore but you're still running
For accomplishment
In this eternal marathon for success
Another day, another dollar, undying motto of progress

Slowly to the top
Is it lonely on the top?

Is it lonely on the top?
Ah, tell me is there anyone for you?
For you, for you
Is it lonely on the top?
Ah, tell me is there anyone for you?
For you, for you

The lane is overcrowded
But the top is just for one
While the one is climbing
The rest are falling down
You climb, climb, climb, climb, climb
But the top is rising too
The track is getting longer
And it's leading to your tomb
You're not afraid to lose your mind
In the name of profit
Red ribbon is the finish
And the finish in the coffin

Is it lonely on the top?
Ah, tell me is there anyone for you?
For you, for you
Is it lonely on the top?
Ah, tell me is there anyone for you?
For you, for you

Who ran beside is left behind
Begging for help on his knees
Begging for help in tears
He whom you've started with, oh

The weak stepped aside, losers are crying

The weak stepped aside, losers are crying
The defeated will live in pain
You hit the top

No surprise!
But who will give you the prize?

It's a race against yourself
Nobody else will meet you there, yeah

2. Pit of Consciousness

I keep on loosing the keys
From reality
An now I'm passing on the wheel
To insanity.
In a secluded corner
Waiting for my time to come,
Waiting for the bedlam
To be pacified.

I am climbing hand over fist
And I scratch concrete.
Shine in the end...
My mistake it's not there.
The air is terribly heavy here
It settles inside
And I suffer burn after burn
From the dark.

Burn

In a pit of consciousness
Squeal is bleeding
So I feel there was someone else
Before me.
Eyes are changing colors.
A stranger knocks on my mind.
I became a foreigner
To myself!

Myself

Stillness stuns.
Wish I'd run
Creeped away to the light.
In my head someone else
Setting snares
For my soul.

In the darkest place
What was once named "consciousness"
I'm a miniature,
I'm a sketch forfeiting outlines.

Irrelevant entity to sanity,
A hive for nonsense,
For multiple selves
Resonating, but never compromising.

Stillness stuns.
Wish I'd run
Creeped away to the light.
In my head someone else
Setting snares
For my soul.
For my soul...

Waiting for my mind to be pacified

3. Judgment (& Punishment)

We came from the lands
Where kindness equals weakness
Feelings are conditional
And help is something supernatural

Your judgments sign your own punishment
Your judgments sign your own punishment

Yes, it is what it is
I know you're pissed off
Narrow minds cannot believe
What they hear

An individual with bitter inner world
Is a cause of deficiency of goodness and love
Of goodness and love
(Hm)
All your good intentions are muted and disabled
(Booyah!)
Tell me what you're gonna bring to the table?
Do you know we're gonna eat at the same table?

This is what it is!
I know you're pissed off
Narrow minds cannot believe
In what they hear
Their system of beliefs experiences stress
Mental impenitence put into the test

So if you are here
To bring the atmosphere of fear
Don't bother, brother
Don't bother, brother

The power of speech is idled away
Poison is spilled, dirty moths sting
Sting

Don't bother, brother
We've seen things that can't be unseen
Don't bother, brother
That's exactly what makes us go even farther

This is what it is
I know you're pissed off
Narrow minds cannot believe
In what they hear
Their system of beliefs experiences stress
Mental impenitence put into the test
Your judgments sign your own punishment
Your judgment, your punishment

4. Retrospection

Кто тебя выхаживал,
Грусть любовью скрашивал?
Позднею весной порастет травой
Тот, кто тебя нёс над головой.

Тот, кто тебя нёс над головой.

Slip up and fall straight into the arms of my mother
Break down and go right into the healing hands of my father.

It's been a while since I came home.
My heart is elsewhere as I roam and roam...
Until I find myself alone.
"Childhood of misery
Is lifelong injury."
No, it's not for me.
What I've always had
Father's love and mother's hand.

Nobody has ever seen a bird crawl back to its eggshell.
Follow by the bygone scenes
It makes me wanna get through them again!

I retrace my steps
To fall back into my nest.
In a minute eyes are closed
Just to feel where I'm supposed to be.

Is that what they call "homesick"?
Am I chasing the past?
Does my mind play insidious tricks?
'Cause the present moves too fast.

Straight into the arms...
Straight into the arms...
(Кто тебя выхаживал?)
Straight into the arms...
(Грусть любовью скрашивал?)
Straight into the arms...
Falling back into my nest
Right into your arms.

5. Pausing Death

...And the next day nobody died
Although nobody really lived.
Philosophers opened the disputes:
Is the mystery a mercy or catastrophe?

So all the people in this world want to have a holiday
A break from their monotonous everyday rituals.
Thus, the immortality is the greatest of God's alms.
But the festival of sudden eternity
Became a tragedy of their lives.

We want to live forever
And fear to never die
We hope to live forever
And fear to never die

Laboring from unbearable permanence
They travel to the edge to see if death still works there.
The half-dead are burden for the living man.
Half-death is a drawback for existence!
A half-dead man is buried
On the stranger's side.

We hope to live forever
And fear to never die
We turn to cemetery
For the alive.

She resumes her operation after vacation.
Newly the chain reaction launched
But this time backwards.
Yesterday they complained
About their athanasy
Now they ring a bell
About death penalty.

One day, if you're lucky, if she'll let you
You'll know her
One day, if you're lucky, if she'll let you
You'll know her
One day you'll know her
The Death with the capital!

You will understand the true difference
Between absolute and relative,
Between full and empty,
Between "there's some more" and
"There is no and never will be".
There is no and never will be!

For if we don't begin to die
Of future we are deprived
For if we don't begin to die
Of future we are deprived

6. Noah

Haunted by the nature's fury as the legend reads
You set off to search for a new land as your master pleads.
Wood and nails, they create the masterpiece.

The Ark is gliding
Upon the flooded surface.
The wind is welcoming
And pushing it forward.

The Ark is on the tide. The tide is high.
Keep it safe and sound what you have inside.
What is meant to be let it be.
A blessing is a shield in your time of need.

The Ark is gliding
Upon the ocean.
A placid giant
On a mission.
The wholesome deed is transition
Of living creatures to the other side.
To find a mountain
The giant glides.

Noah!
Something went wrong, huh?
I can hear the animals moaning,
Dogs are howling in their roomless cage.
Why are you standing frozen with fear?
Staying on the boat for weeks
Where the sea and the air are still.
You sent a dove to find a seed.
You sent a dove but it will not return.

What is meant to be let it be.
Keep it safe and sound what you have inside.

The Ark is imprisoned
By the ocean.
A placid giant
Failed the mission.
Horizon bends over
Hiding dry land.
The giant surrenders
The quest for a mountain.

Skies are falling, Noah!
This woe just can't be gone!
The horizon is bending over
And now it's upside down...

7. Home Back

What is this?!
What is this mess?!
What's that noise?
Is this a death sentence?
Terrifying silhouettes
Rising over the motherland.

Are those the fireworks?
No. It's a military quirk.
Is it a mermaid singing?
No. It's a siren screaming.

Is it an angel watching over us?
It's an air-fighter making a fuss.
Is it a unicorn galloping down the street?
No! These are soldiers' boots marching to the beat!

Marching to the beat!

Is it an angel watching over us?
Is it an air-fighter making a fuss?
Why is this party looking so bizarre?
A party? No! This is W-A-R!

My darling, did we wake up like this?
Isolated bodies in a boudoir of helplessness.
A bullet is an early bird, a midnight owl.
Morning greetings of a rooster are replaced
With "Fire in a hole".
"Fire in a hole".
My dear, do we have to go to sleep like that?
With a soothing cocktail and the hundredth cigarette.
Morning greetings of a rooster are replace
With "Fire in a hole!"

Our beds are cold,
As cold as basement floor.
Our beds are cold,
As cold as basement floor.
This house is not our shelter anymore.
This house is not our shelter anymore.
This house is not our shelter anymore.
Anymore, blyeh!

Home is not a building,
Home is liberty.
A place where memories live
In prosperity and peace.
I came back home so I want my home back.
I came back home so I want my home back.
Don't you leave us homeless!
Don't you leave us homeless!
Homeless!
Homeless!

8. The Prophecy

Minuscule
Micro
Insignificant
Minor

Why do you underestimate me?
Have you heard the prophecy?

Subordinated
Wretched
Mediocre
Inferior

Why do you neglect me?
Don't you know about the prophecy?

Excessive use of power
Initiates abuse.
Misconception of the essence!

Insulted egos once inflamed
Turn superheroes into the damned.
Take your pride and go away!
Take your pride and evaporate!

Persistent scourge is your second name,
Vital threat to all the inhabitants.

My decision is to reintroduce you to the world!

Voracious ape!
Mr. Know-It-All!
I reclaim my kingdom.
Hope your sun is gone!

I reclaim my kingdom.
Hope your sun will never rise again!

Hear me, ogre!
Concentrate!
Humble yourself down!
Until it's to late!
The law of balance can't be revoked.
When the Earth is overwhelmed with you
It will shake you off.

I reclaim my kingdom
'Cause your sun will never rise.
I reclaim my kingdom
Hope your sun will never rise again.

9. lainnereP

This autumn feels like funeral to me
The longest song of grief
And not for what has past
But for what shall last

This autumn feels like funeral to me
The longest song of grief
And not for what has past
But for what shall last
