You feel so disconnected, and yes, I get it
But there is just no point in further confrontation Disfunctional communication skills You undermine our mutual Resolution strategy With your condescending, patronizing Habitus of false modest You feel so disconnected, and yes, I get it But there is just no point in further confrontation Disfunctional communication skills You undermine our mutual Resolution strategy With your condescending, patronizing Habitus of false modesty A sole survivor You'll carry the flame You feel so disconnected, and yes, I get it But there is just no point in further confrontation Disfunctional communication skills You undermine our mutual Resolution strategy With your condescending, patronizing Habitus of false modest You feel so disconnected, and yes, I get it But there is just no point in further confrontation Disfunctional communication skills You undermine our mutual Resolution strategy With your condescending, patronizing Habitus of false modesty A sole survivor You'll carry the flame You're wandering all by yourself (Yourself) Across this arid land Dead trees in seas of sand You're wandering all by yourself (Yourself) Dead trees in seas of sand A dry wind blows Across the barren plains Dead trees in seas of sand Stretching to the horizon Black trees Burnt monuments to compassion You're wandering all by yourself (Yourself) Across this arid land Dead trees in seas of sand You're wandering all by yourself (Yourself) Dead trees in seas of sand 02.

Pieces are shattered, once again
You're no longer innocent And no, this did not come out of the blue How exactly did you expect me to react When you keep pushing it? Keep pushing the needle in? Pieces are shattered, once again You're no longer innocent And no, this did not come out of the blue How exactly did you expect me to react When you keep pushing it? Keep pushing the needle in? (Pushing the needle in?) Out Out of the cave You can feel the weather change Blazing ardour in the shade Out Out of the cave You can feel the weather change Blazing ardour in the shade We thought this would be never-ending You bathed naked in the planet's glow But now it's clear: Collision is impending How exactly did you expect me to react When you keep pushing it? Keep pushing the needle in? Out Out of the cave You can feel the weather change Blazing ardour in the shade Out Out of the cave You can feel the weather change Blazing ardour in the shade Radiant collapse Planetary scale Our indecent errors paved the way Truth long known before our last deeds The world we know will go down in flames Lie awake It won't be long Lie awake It's coming close With out memories of a clear day We're both still here And the needle head in the sky is on fire Can you see? Lie awake It won't be long Lie awake It's coming close We are just like repties Giant rulers of the world Within the blink of an eye Wiped off the face of the earth We are just like repties Giant rulers of the world Within the blink of an eye Wiped off the face of the earth Melancholia has arrived The atmosphere red hot From the debris storm All sunlight eclipsed for months Photosynthesis all but stopped Giant forest fires Consume the earth Barren trees stripped of foliage In the rain of tektites We are just like repties Giant rulers of the world Within the blink of an eye Wiped off the face of the earth We are just like repties Giant rulers of the world Within the blink of an eye Wiped off the face of the earth We are all alone So save your sentimental considerations For the moment when it hits No hideout No safe retreat Out of the cave You can feel the weather change Melancholia has arrived Antares was a lie Existential emptiness Existential emptiness 03.

Broken bones, onward
The seed to be in defect Open void, silence We said we would never neglect The unknown deliverance Embrace, feel the far In search, rememberance Words unspoken, be heard Give it back, the truth they never had Walk away from the past that was never there Raise the sword, slowly feel it die They tried, we tried, did we try? Broken bones, onward The seed to be in defect The unknown deliverance Words unspoken be heard Give it back, the truth they never had Walk away from the past that was never there Raise the sword, slowly feel it die They tried, we tried, did we try? Broken bones, onward The seed to be in defect The unknown deliverance Words unspoken be heard Broken bones, onward The seed to be in defect The unknown deliverance Words unspoken be heard 04. Eocene
Charity is your demand
But you never showed me any lenience Empathy and violence Reconciled under your austere diligence How can you see yourself As a proud child of disobedience When you just said to me You've always lived on the leash of my convenience? (You promised me, you promised me, you promised me) Charity is your demand (But you never showed me any lenience) Empathy and violence (Reconciled under your austere diligence) How can you see yourself (As a proud child of disobedience) When you just said to me (You've always lived on the leash of my convenience?) (You promised me, you promised me, you promised me) Yes, and this is how it ends Everything's been said We're good, we're done now Purified and calm Look at me once more before you turn around Defy the debris storm Charity is your demand, never showed me any lenience Empathy and violence, reconciled by your diligence How can you see yourself as a proud child of disobedience When you have always lived on the leash of my convenience? Yes, and this is how it ends Everything's been said We're good, we're done now Purified and calm Look at me once more before you turn around Defy the debris storm And defy the debris storm 05.

Creature, get up on your legs
The world around you's gotten more complex Your needs diversified Assign priorities, sedate your mind Recurrence for the weak Eternal spiral of self-defeat Set out to find your niche Relearn how to use your teeth You are unique But you'll disappear From this bleak Celestial sphere Time is not A line to connect the dots Creature, get up on your legs The world around you's gotten more complex Your needs diversified Assign priorities, sedate your mind Recurrence for the weak Eternal spiral of self-defeat Set out to find your niche Relearn how to use your teeth You are unique But you'll disappear From this bleak Celestial sphere Time is not A line to connect the dots Cosmic wheel Cyclic history, repeat, eternally 07.

We all can only take so much
Some more than others And our individual tolerance For stress, for loneliness Is so subjective But there's not tolerance at all For hopelesness Yes, you sure did your best to smile When I dragged you once more to the isle But all the serenity Just served to augment your pain You've always been intrigued By death and the other side You got yourself too close To the, to the abyss And no, no one of the closest ones around you Realized how your stare turned empty How the flickering faded from your eyes And emptiness invaded Yes, you sure did your best to smile When I dragged you once more to the isle But all the serenity Just served to augment your pain And no one could tell the moment When you disassembled When your restless heart froze And you sank below the ice Eyes wide open Your savior's soul is consumed by guilt Your faith in him won't be saving you Your savior's soul is consumed by guilt Your faith in him won't be saving you My whole life, I've been searching Digging deep Turning over every stone Questioning everything I know Maybe there's no fire Far behind these mountains? This light is something else We are just atoms Colliding, clashing Melting, merging Existing, spinning Colliding, burning Out (out, out) 08. Holocene
Brace yourself
You feel nothing But you see Your limbs are black and frozen A swell of ice Descends from the North Caps the land Old thoughts under the surface Lift me up Into the stratosphere It's cold And breathing becomes a challenge I'm floating high (High) Bird's eye perspective Sets you free Now let me take my distance We are alone So save your sentimental considerations For the moment when it hits No hideout, no safe retreat We are alone So save your sentimental considerations For the moment when it hits No hideout, no safe retreat You feel so disconnected, and yes, I get it But there is just no point in further confrontation Dysfunctional communication skills You undermine our mutual Resolution strategy With your condescending patronising Habitus of false modesty Lift me up Into the stratosphere It's cold And breathing becomes a challenge I'm floating high Bird's eye perspective Sets you free Now let me take my distance |
