LYRICS:
Trapped
downpour of disapproval on exploitation

Every - every man for himself
Trapped in - trapped in this living hell
Every - every man for himself
Trapped in - trapped in this living hell
33 miners, trapped 600 metres deep
embedded in darkness, under 35 degrees
Abundant copper & gold
But no air to breathe
Abundant copper & gold
But no air to breathe
No light to see
No space to move
No water to drink
Oppressive heat & high humidity
And just a few spoons of food a day
To survive between the rubble
Trapped in the womb of the earth
Fearing "we're going to die"
Death sentence to the miners
Losing courage and the last spark of hope
Death sentence to the miners
Losing courage and the last spark of hope
14 days later
A piece of paper as a first sign of life
Coming from the womb of the Earth
Screaming "we're still alive"
Bringing joy to the soil of the Earth
We dig until we get by
Machines drilling the ground for weeks
To create a navel-string
The impossible
Above ground, alive
Was made possible
The impossible
Above ground, alive
Above ground, alive
Above ground, alive
How escape from insanity or the fear of starving to death
Claustrophobic frustrations & conflicts in the Earth's depth
Every man for himself, trapped in this living hell
No space to escape from the human stench you smell
Every man for himself
Trapped in this living hell
Every man for himself
Trapped in this living hell
Every man for himself
Trapped in this living hell

LINER NOTES:
On 5 August 2010 33 miners got trapped in the San José mine; a copper and gold mine in the North of Chile. They got imprisoned after a landslide in the mine, trapped in a shelter 612 metres deep. A rescue mission never seen before was started. The rescue workers could only establish contact with them after 2 weeks of drilling the earth with their machines. "Estamos bien en el rafugio -- los 33" was the message coming from the womb of the Earth. The following weeks two more shafts were drilled to reach the miners, while their families stayed above ground at the entrance of the mine in the Camp of Hope; Campamento Esperanza. 69 days later, on 13 October 2010, the first rescued miner finally saw the light of day again. One by one they were brought back to the soil with a special high-technological capsule. Finally they saw their loved ones again. Following this mining disaster, the worn out San José mine was closed, like several other insecure mines in Chile. A few days after the rescue of the Chilean miners; 26 miners died after an explosion in a mine in China. The Chinese mining industry is the most dangerous worldwide. In 2009 2600 miners died in one of the many Chinese mines. The gigantic hunger for raw materials leads to a careless exploitation of the mines & a shameless exploitation of the workers. The companies are out for the highest profits with no attention to the well-being of the miners. The story of the Chilean miners not only shows that the work circumstances in some parts of the world are still degrading and extremely dangerous, but also that human beings don't give up & fight for their lives. The miners lived in extreme & hopeless circumstances for months, but their struggle for life brought them back above ground.
Alive.
