JINJER LYRICS

1. Ape

The beginning of all beginnings
The era of nonexistence

When the Earth wasn't the Earth
When our planet was a fireball
It was raining heavily for a thousand years
And now the fireball became an ocean
That cooking water, the primal soup
A natural life-giving potion

This substance strove to find a way
To create another form of miracle

I brought a myriad atoms and turned them into your flesh
Regenerated through destruction and chaos
While the young world was sculpting itself
No one could notice how you stroke a different pose

Voracious ape who walks upright
Who deserts life to satisfy his appetite
Don't you remember you were the size of a bean?
Now what a shame to wear the name of a 'human being'

Oh, here you are! Vertically standing!
He, who calls himself intelligent
But has not much for understanding
Oh, here you go, Mr. Know-It-All!
I made a mistake when I created you long time ago

Mr. Know-It-All
Oh, here you go
Mr. Know-It-All
Oh, here you go
Mr. Know-It-All
Oh, here you go

Just the mention of your name
Would make the whole world start to shake
Who gave you right to save your life
By taking life from others?
By taking life away!

By taking life away!
By taking life away!

Blood-thirsty ape who walks upright
What shall I do to humble your appetite?
Bloodthirsty ape who walks upright
What shall I do to humble your appetite?

2. Dreadful Moments

Limp footsteps stump to my door
He's coming down the corridor
Tears wash my face, I cannot stand
These lessons taught by father's wreakful hand

Dreadful moments always last too long
This pain and woe just can't be gone
Dreadful moments always last too long
This pain and woe just can't be gone

Mother, would you come and save me from this hell
Oh, mother, I can't take this anymore
Please, oh please, let me feel your hand on me forevermore
I beg you crying out, cease reign of horror

Piercing silence is the only to reply
No one gives their aid no matter how I cry
Being fed to lions I'm left high and dry

Atrocity makes only of its own kind
Those never felt a gentle touch
Can solely clench their fists to grind
And bring this world so much of grief

Dreadful moments always last too long
This pain and woe just can't be gone
Dreadful moments always last too long
This pain and woe just can't be gone

Childhood of misery
Is lifelong injury
A burden hidden by the curtain of years
A trauma that could not be healed

Childhood of misery
Is lifelong injury
A burden hidden by the curtain of years
A trauma that could not be healed

Memories of fear and dread
Deeply sealed

3. Teacher, Teacher!

Good evening, kids. Take your seats. Open up your Bibles.
I'm gonna chase down some rivals so keep your eyes wide open
Your young soul lost control, make your first foul
This is my duty to set the bounds

She grabbed my hand, took me in, placed me in front of the class
She gave a hint I was the clou of her mass
I'm in the middle of the holy of holies,
I have no worries!

I saw dusty icons on the wall
I saw needles and stones
So she put a paper bag on my head
She pointed finger at me, and then she said,

"Dear Lord, forgive me as I'm slapping, slapping, slapping this sinful child
By your hand I'm led so I will, show, show what is wrong and what is right
Choose your label 'cause I'm mercy, mercy, merciful
Put your knuckles on the table, meet my friend ferrule who'll punish you!

When the prejudice let us down
We stand firmly on our ground
Don't let the school make a fool of you
Because the teachers may be fools too

When the prejudice let us down
We stand firmly on our ground
Don't let the school make a fool of you
Because the teachers may be fools too

Laws chalked on the blackboard
Can't be erased until it gets boring
The lady spoke and then she choked
On the convictions oh so alluring

She made a pause in her verbal overdose
My paper bag slipped down on the floor
I took a look around, there was no sanctuary
Desks empty, the school was all imaginary

Teacher, teacher! Self-proclaimed preacher
Under the flag of welfare your lectures start to blare!
We need no soap shoved down our throats
So keep your monologues unrated and remote

I am a bad example of order
This life is not a prison and you are not a warden
Please teacher, teacher! Leave us alone
As we accept life lessons from no one

When the prejudice let us down
We stand firmly on our ground
Don't let the school make a fool of you
Because the teachers may be fools too

When the prejudice let us down
We stand firmly on our ground
Don't let the school make a fool of you

Your idols scream to me
Throwing shame on my face
As I turn away from infamy and disgrace
I smile to you, 'cause I want you to see
How I break the rules in front of your trinity

Your idols scream to me
Throwing shame on my face
As I turn away from infamy and disgrace
Oh, I smile to you
I smile to you
I smile to you

4. Perennial

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

Exhausted nature is so tragic and suicidal!
Oh how spectacular she is when she kills herself!
Death throes are slowly crawling to her toes
As the last leaf is falling off her head.
I'm here with her undressed
With a few petals on my breasts
We shared opiates and let the landscapes do the same
I love your warmth but yet prefer to sleep in cold alone.
We fixed our eyes up to the sky
To see a flight send us farewell

Goodbye!
May we see each other next time.
So please, come back to celebrate this festival of life

Then as now fly!
Today you reached the point of no return.
Now cry! And then die!
Tomorrow I will meet you with your cells restored.

Annual tradition of mass destruction
In the name of total reconstruction
My biggest source of confusion
The reason of decay and disillusion.
Under permanent ice we found a breathless paradise
No, we're not dead,
No, we're not dead,
Just enjoying coma

From the ashes of my roots the new me will rise to live again
This is poetry of youth, this is poetry of me and you!
From the ashes of my roots the new me will rise to live again
This is poetry of youth, this is poetry of me and you!

5. Micro
