lyrics

Running everyday to catch my soul.
Running everyday, banging my head against the wall.
Running everyday to catch this call.
Running every way, making sure I beat the fall.

Bah dah! M’bah dah! M’bah dah, bah.

Working everyday to fit the mould.
Working everyday, another way to play my role.
Sweating everyday in this shit alone.
Digging everyday a little deeper in my whole.

Bah dah! M’bah dah! M’bah dah, bah.

Mating in my bed, misfits and whores.
Killing in my head, bosses and bores.
Falling in the cracks of my own insanity.
Cutting-up the rats rotting in my sleep.

Bah dah! M’bah dah! M’bah dah, bah.

Keeping every night the madness alive.
Threw away the pieces of my scattered life.
I wake-up in the morning with a rested smile.
Reaching for the goal; the human high.

The album Small People, Short Story, Little Crime came out in 1999.

In 2017, Existence released the complete original concept as the ably titled Origins album, since only half of it had been released as an album until then.
