Bonjour Tristesse - The Act of Laughing in a World Once Beautiful Now Dying

Kishore Kumar Hits — Bonjour Tristesse - The Act of Laughing in a World Once Beautiful Now Dying lyrics

Artist: Bonjour Tristesse

album: Your Ultimate Urban Nightmare

We are living in desolating times
How can you laugh this loud while this world dies?
When people are turned into slaves, neither dead nor alive
Smiling satisfied while living the biggest lies
Traumatized minds are replaced with cyborg-brains
They have no names, just numbers
Blinded by shame
Their weary bones are crushed by the megamachine
There is no heaven, but hell
Just ghosts in their shells
"The natural world, once untouched wilderness, is degraded
It is now a gigantic poisoned chunk
Heap of which resources are extracted
The only forests left are those of sooted smokestacks
Not covered by mist, but by toxic clouds of desperation"
Old growth forests are turned into barren land
Lush meadows into parking lots
This society tries to sell everything, until the kids ask
"Daddy, what's the moon supposed to advertise?"
"With mass technological society in pathological proportions
We have developed a world order, which isolates and disorientates us
It separates us from the natural world, our former home
Our one true home"
This is the psychic deplacement
The trauma, the exile, the alienation
Which is inherent in civilized life
This is our homelessness
