lyrics

KÓDY, ČÍSLA, ZNAKY

Není to tvá vina, můžeš klidně spát
Neviděl jsi je, neslyšel, nikdy jsi tam nebyl
Byly to jen obrazy jak z filmu
Každodenní záběry z večerních zpráv
Není to tvá vina, můžeš klidně spát
Jsou to jenom kódy, čísla, znaky
A není na tobě, jak je použijí
Vždyť každý musí někde pracovat
Nebyli to lidi, jen terče
Položky ze statistik
Kusy mapy na obrazovce
Úkoly, které jsi musel splnit
Není to tvá vina, můžeš klidně spát
Lidi budou umírat i bez tebe *
Vždycky bude stačit dívat se jinam
Vždycky bude stačit věřit, že to je jen hra **

CODES, NUMBERS, SIGNS

It's not your fault, you can sleep without guilt
You didn't see them, you didn't hear them, you've never been there
They were only pictures just like in a movie
daily scenes from evening news
It's not your fault, you can sleep without guilt
They are just codes, numbers, signs
And it's not up to you how they use it
Anyway, everyone has to work somewhere
They weren´t people, they were just targets
they were just items in statistics
Pieces of map on a screen
Tasks you had to accomplish
It's not your fault, you can sleep without guilt
People are dying without you as well
You can always look elsewhere
You can always believe that this is just a game
