lyrics

Hey, Wake up Anna
It's Time to work again
Put on a nice face
You have to pay your debts
There's no hope outside this iron bars
This bitter sky has surrendered every star

your reflection in the mirror tells you that you've hit rock bottom
you’re becoming a faint shadow of yourself

once again
the lights go up for the parade
forget your name
to become a puppet once again
it’s your turn, step on the catwalk
conceal your voice and your desires beneath your dress
seems too late to stop this train

you met him at the fair last summer
he stole your heart away
you left your hometown
to go west with your man
in the car he spoke about a job
“just something easy to help us build our home”

now they’re up to get your family if you don’t do as they tell you
took your passport as they do with every prey
you’re ashamed and isolated, you feel guilty and defenceless
but there has to be a way to end this pain
break this chains

once again you are handed over to the snakes
to steal your breath, to suffocate you day by day
fake a smile, stare at the spotlight
ignore your thoughts and your opinions and just say yes
seems too late to pull the brake

once again the lights go up for the parade
forget your name to become a puppet once again
once again you’re handed over to the snakes
but one Day they'll forget to lock the cage
