I'd Like To 01:59
Something you've always had in mind That's why you never need a plan Fastest way of losing weight Without confronting fears, living your life I'd like to commit suicide But what is it for? I don't want to try and fail myself again You lost your cool You gave it all away "You told me but How could I ever know?" A quarter-mile from here The scout is looking out for you But he'll never find you You're wasting time You've got the might But you just can't see the light You're drowning in a teacup So stand your ground Release your inner mind The chances are still on your side One time's my fault, but twice is yours Now seize your life, don't get cursed

Sandcastles 02:49
Voices start to fade away You're on your own, you’re all alone You can't avoid The process in your mind The gravity of destiny The misery, the agony There's no way out You know this is your life You ran out of chances End of the road Is it time to keep on faking? Is it time to knock it off? You won't commit, you just pretend But now we know this is the end It suddenly is getting out of hand You may feel safe within these walls But it's getting old, it's falling down It's made of sand Don't you think you’ve already had enough? Ready to waste more years of your life? Ready to keep playing blind? To lose your mind? To leave it all behind? Next time when no one's around And you have to face yourself in the mirror When you finally release your true self out What do you want to see?

Grayout 03:17
Clock ticking Heart beating Mind spinning I need to stay still I need to stay awake Can't take no time to think, I can't It means so much to me But it feels like a race I just can't take the lead I don't know where it ends As time goes by I get used to this Calendar squares I put to waste Vision turns grey The same good old clear path Is now a maze My body, my mind My soul needs a rest I know I'm not giving it my best I need to stay still I need to stay awake What are we doing here? Why are you standing in my way? Gave up so much for this Worked my fingers to the bone But I just can't take the lead Can't get it done The situation calls for a change Yet again I rearrange

Gallium 04:08
When the true crickets sing And the tranquility is under siege Black and blue shades Of what you don't have the guts to tell me Underneath your clothes Weak flashes of your wound chart Where nobody goes No one has No one knows My anger only grows With you You won't put your weapons down You're not taking off your precious gold crown You don't seem to lower your guard down, and it shows You're making a mistake, it's right in front your nose My anger only grows With you My anger only grows With you Slipping through my fingers Melting in my hands You're walking straight into the fire I am not crossing the line (this time!) With you It's not a matter of perspectives It's what you're doing to yourself It's you My anger only grows With you My anger only grows With you

Black, red, green and blue It represents to me and you An underworld class apart from the straight An amalgamation of sacrificed faith Against the culture, the sinking ships Gallons of blood poured right into the mix We will not surrender We're not gonna fall The dust and the ashes The blood on the wall... Free ourselves from you Free ourselves from you The city burns The buildings are falling from A denied civilization No more ammo for your cops We have to tear it down There's no chance at all Brick by brick Wall by wall

Silverbride 02:45
We know the price of everything Yet the value of nothing I know you can see it through your eye Even though it was sealed in blood New thicker scar tissue grows No matter what they say, you know you're right You have no excuse So powerful, so bold The fire inside you You shine with your own glow And you're not over yet You're not even close Bounce back Fight for what's yours Reflection, refraction Dispersion you are You shine with your own light Show me what you got tonight You just can't realize But you're one of a kind This is what we had in mind And we're not over yet This story has just begun No, this ain't over yet There's no place to run This ain't over yet Ready to fight It's burning inside you With all your might Cause we're not over yet I'm so proud of you, and this time The heart, the mind, the eye Make your dreams come true tonight Make them true tonight

Icing 03:33
It took me like one hundred tries But I'm done with wasting time Oh, I wish I could But I owe you so much like to think I will be able to Gather my feelings and thoughts In a simple, honest tune But you see, this is just who I am I'd do anything for you Even at the deepest, darkest Corner of my heart My feelings are strong and intense Passion, emotion, I am all about I lost my common sense I am deeply crazy about you The flame is burning inside You share your life with me You always watch my back You give me a reason to fight No matter how fucked up I am No matter how bad I react When going through hard times You're holding my hand And I make it out alive You hold my hand and I know We can work it out I love you eternally I'll always be here by your side And I know very well This ain't good enough But I'll make it up to you Somehow There must be some way To make it up to you Next time

Pay to Kill 02:30
It seems you're digging your own grave With your own given teeth Established general agenda Most have to submit To an industrial society In our suburbs, in our cribs And nobody seems to care About this catastrophe Alienated empathy Bringing pain and suffering From an unconscious mind Consuming all the pain Consuming all the fear Supporting the business Contributing to the kill Dismembering violent genocide No penalties, no reprisal, no remorse The captive, the tortured, the raged Insane, and with a bolt to the brain Consuming all the pain For making profit, taking lives Just awards and accolades Alienated empathy Bringing pain and suffering From an unconscious mind Extreme fatality A total lack of decency This world has no dignity

Spitfire 02:48
Pay attention The gun in my pocket's getting triggered Pay attention The fuel in my body's getting heated Cut the crap The cup in my hand is about to shatter out loud Let me go You've been standing on my back for too long I've been waiting for you I've been fighting on my own But I have better things to do And all my hope is gone The walls are coming down After all we've been through We're running out of time What does it mean to you? I'm tasting that poison again Boy, I've had enough I'm betraying myself again Now it's time to stop Just remove the safety clip And pull the pin, prepare to throw Please let me go Blazing in my gut Holding up, steaming out Can't stand it anymore Surface is about to crack Drilling in my head Seemingly embroidered Grueling, spitting fire Trapped inside this void Trapped inside this void Can't stand it anymore

The Source 02:51
My mouth is dry But I won't stop I want to take it on I gotta let it out Get rid of this If this one's my last chance Make this my statement then Just gotta give it all Until the end No reminders left Just reprisal Gonna make sure you pay for this No regrets No remorse Breeding hate to feed the primal source Death and hate Blood and pain You're gonna kill In my name I hate to realize One day we're here The next we're not You better watch your back At the end of the day Because the panic and the suffering You're exposed to, it doesn't mean a thing When I snap my fingers you will see Death and hate Blood and pain You're gonna kill In my name We trick for a living Deceive for a fee We break your will You kill for me You gotta kill In my name You gotta kill In my name
11.
Never felt like this before I guess it had to be this way Caught me off guard, hit me hard The hammer landed on my head I wonder why it gets so cold I'm kissing pavement, I'm out of action World suddenly stops spinning And I'm done The water's flowing down my face But it can't wash the pain away I'm feeling lost, my vision fails Gets darker, deeper every ways I wish I could just give and take But doesn't work like that, too late We have no other choice, we undertake When the phoenix goes down Striking final round Life leaves you in its wake We're outta moves to make Staring right at the sun Is this all there is left? Don't leave me hanging in there All of those we love Are only borrowed to us It's so easy to forget A scar in our hearts A hole in our souls It will always be there

Today 05:05
They've been sending us to war We've been taking part of the crime we deplore Inserted in the culture, knocking on my door I've been part of this slaughter since that I was born And you, oh, what a fake excuse is your negation To justify your conformism with the extermination I don't understand, it's so fucking damn insane It's so clear, you may not like to be caged and assassinated And I was avoiding my own deepest thoughts And I didn't want to think on simple things, just ignore them all And I rolled my eyelids up and stepped on this And I finally made it and all I see is a world of pain And this is not a song, this is not a fast reaction This is a pain shout coming right through Straight from your actions (and inactions) I'm not a priest, I'm not a monk, I'm not barely a thing I'm a pig, I'm a fury pig in a cage, nibbling the bars Freeing my rage, what I mean, I want to say Freeing my rage, tearing my sadness, bleeding my flesh You really need to hunt who Can't fucking shoot to you? You really need to eat? At the cost of something better than a senseless human being? I realize myself, all you ignore Becomes your worst nightmare if I'm talking to the wall The curse of the razor's edge is pursuing us Awareness-raising, resisting mutilations No time for retrospections in a world gone mad (No time for retrospections here This world is fucking mad like me!) You have to take a fucking pure and clean soul And all that we can hear is a sound Go! The simulation is over Today we fall from order The simulation is over Today we're falling under
