Collateral discusses old sufferings, recycled every new morning sun, expected to repeat even before the day ends on every tomorrow. Deaths and traffic and lies, over and over and over, until everyone comes together to fight for a rightful end.
lyrics
it’s hard, it’s hard, it’s hard to live
in destitution
in misery
i found myself still stuck
in roads i’ve been in
for what it felt a thousand years
our brothers and sisters
are lying lifeless on the ground
what have you done?
what have you done?
what have you done?
lie all you want to
you’ll find yourself
at the mercy of the damned
day in, day out
it’s hard to live
day in, day out
i found myself
still stuck, still stuck
what have you done?
i just want to live
my life comfortably
(as) as everyone
lie all you want to
and we will cry aloud
that there will be
a rightful end to all,
to all of this
