My name is Mika
I'm reporting from the front
I live upside-down world
Yes I think you've never been there

If you hear something day and night
Some kind of trouble, some kind of fight
Just let me tell you what it was
Just let me tell you what it was
Just let me tell you what it was

I think it's because I'm recording
I try not to talk too much
Maybe it's because I'm careful
I try not to take a risk

They only hit until you quit
After that you don't ask why
You just don't acquiesce anymore
You just don't acquiesce anymore
You just don't acquiesce anymore


Yes I think I'm okay
I walked into the war again
Well, if you ask that's what I'll say
And it's not your business anyway

I guess I'd like to be secure
With nothing broken, nothing shot
Just don't ask me how I am
Just don't ask me how I am
Just don't ask me how I am

My name is Mika

Just let me tell you what it was
Just let me tell you what it was

And they only hit until you quit
After that you don't ask why
You just don't acquiesce anymore
You just don't acquiesce anymore
You just don't acquiesce anymore
