I wonder why we fall at all I wonder why we fall at all There is something beautiful about love I'd like to share what I feel Because it's what I'm thinking of It's a feeling that creeps up Under your neck Above the breast It feels warm At the same time it feels strong And when I breathe in The feeling gets more intense It's what we're striving for And it has no end We are aware of the lack of it And right inside my chest It's the best It's the best

Years of Depression T'was in the first year of the new depression In real estate the prices fell like lead A grumpy old dude who just got evicted Wrote these words on his newspaper bed All you bondholders, bankers and fuckheads in the firms When I meet you on my street I'll see that you get burned I'll kick your teeth on down your throats and pull them out your arse Watch out when I get you Years of depression will be yours Be yours be yours Years of depression will be yours Soon came the second year of the depression Numerous countries starved to feed the banks Their populations pushed their eyes and wondered Yet some of them heard these words from the cranks Yet came the third year of depression Social systems crumbled down like chalk We sure heard the blabbering of our leaders Fools got nothing to say and yet they talk And now begins the fourth year of depression Do we remain speechless longer on Or remember that all streets are our streets indeed And smash up rules and rulers one by one

1) Zhanaozen o Zhanaozen my thoughts they go out to Zhanaozen they lie with the oil workers' struggle there and their families' troubling grief 2) They had been on strike for more than 8 months for decent conditions and higher pay for trade union rights and nationalisation so they could control the wealth of their creation 3) The profit making sharks could not tolerate this nor could the president's powerful clique scared they might lose and scared they might fall they were prepared to go to all lengths 4) A unions' rep and another one's daughter were ruthlessly murdered and others were tortured union men had to leave their homes so they could be safe from the goverment's thugs 5) on the 16th of december a rally was held to underline the oil workers case as the regime planned to celebrate 20 years of their capitalist rule 6) the regime went on to demonstrate what they understood by freedom of speech or what democracy means to them compared to the profits they're so eager to make 7) Nazarbayev's men went into the demonstration to provoke and to escalate tension the riot police reacted with guns with hundreds wounded and dozens dead 8) The only thing made public bout the incident then was a statement by the Kazakh regime saying 'what is the fuss, there's just 17 dead' and then put the blame on the oil working men 9) They shot into an innocent crowd of those who survived many were charged for alleged provocation of a massacre they hadn't caused 10) So I wonder what happened to those unaccounted for dead whose families still wait for them to come back whose deaths had never been recognised and whose lives might never be mourned 11) Its only been lately that rumours grew loud of unnamed tombstones and graves in the yards they grew by the numbers of quite a few i wonder if they'll ever be named 12) Another rigged election was held Nazarbayev's still head of the state the oil workers still fighting for their rights and the system still out against them 13) A system thats rotten, a system thats cruel that calculates lives for the money of few the regime must not get away with its lies and the system must be overthrown 14) Zhanaozen oh Zhanaozen please shout out the story as loud as you can the workers' names might soon be forgotten but we shall never forget
