Every generation lives
In the shadows of the last
This one's no exception
Before traditions set the rules
But this is something new
There are no directions

All or nothing
We are stuffing
Our waistlines increasing
And with it IQs are dropping
Keep on pushing
Blame it on Cushing
Sit down, take it easy you know
There's no point in rushing

Hey, we're slaves of the plethora season
No work to be done
So chill now everyone
Hey, we're suffering from indulgence syndrome
Nothing but joy
We have no choice

There's a theme park called the west
With high fences all around
So there'll be no distractions
Here we do what we do best
Exploiting everyone
In search of perfection

All or nothing
We are suffering
Taking their oil and their lives
And there's still no cuffing
No dominion
No opinion
There's not a new law or decision
That we're not in on

Hey, we're slaves of the plethora season
We need all the gas
To move that thriving ass
Hey, we live in the immunity zone
Time to rejoice
Boys and toys

In our corner of the world
Got nothing much to fear
So we turn on each other
Some girls have formed a plan
Goes straight past equality
This without deception
Injustice for ten thousand years
Now blaming anyone
Who can get an erection?

All or nothing
They're not bluffing

Hey, we're slaves of the plethora season
Those who have none in crotch
They've finally grown nuts
Hey, we're standing in the enemy zone
Let's head on home
Y chromosome

What am I waiting for
What do I hope to find
Lying here inside my mind
So much scattered energy
Falling in between
Focusing on how I hurt
Introvert

I search my heart I search my soul
A bust without console
I search the ground I search for more
I just can't find the door
I can't decide I can't control
I lost control
I have no faith I have no goal
I have nothing
Nothing to explore

Paralyzed from the neck up
No twinkle in my eye
And I have no devotion
No chills down my spine
Paralyzed but in slow motion
Like a zombie
I keep on moving round and round
Making sure I can't be found

Panic rising from inside
Adrenaline set in
Still I won't move an inch
The world outside passes me by
With the blinding speed of light
Captured ghosts on retinas
Fading out

I never laugh I never feel
It's hard to conceal
I never hurt I never heal
What is fake, what's for real
I don't believe I believe
I would've never believed
I would never believe again
I don't believe this
Believe me I never would've believed
You'd believe me if I told you how
If I told you how I feel

Paralyzed from the neck up
No twinkle in my eye
And I show no emotion
No tears fall at goodbye
Paralyzed like from some potion
I'm gripped by this stunning notion
A sensation so profound
I cannot make a sound

Apathy spreads fast through me
Like gangrene dark and cold
Life and death entangled
Infection growing sore
We all know the outcome
From that struggle in the past
So what am I waiting for

Thoughts make up the pages
The page contains the thought
Burning for the winds of changes
But that wind will feed the fire

Ash to ash stories ending
Dust to dust flakes ascending
Burn debris burn the breath of writers
Choke on smoke freedom fighters

In order to deny the story
The story must be read
To judge if harm can be inflicted
You must inflict the harm

Ash to ash innocence lost
Dust to dust this is the cost
Censoring truth leftovers buried
In our minds still residing

In retrospect
There's plenty left
To tell the facts behind the lies
Put sound to every pantomime

Imperative
Should not outlive
The modal verbs of humbleness
The what if, maybe and I guess

Still trapped beneath
The boulders of authority
Whispered phrases dodging
Immature publicity
Every aspect covered
Except the danger
Of airborne phonetics
Hitting the tympanic
The long lost written words
The long lost written words
Spoken out loud

If regressive new ideas must vanish
The idea is still regress
The pureness of the soul in danger
The danger is the soul

Ash to ash lives are ending
Dust to dust flakes ascending
Heinrich Heine your words still echo
Lost and found author unknown
Author unknown

I could have gladly asked for more
But your look was saying: "I saw you"
And as you turned away
I mumbled out that I adore you
But I knew within
That forced upon a choice I'd run
And once again chagrined
Defeated by my very own hand

I am my own worst enemy
I am the last man who can set me free

Ain't it time you made up your mind
Guiding voices pointing at the road ahead
Leading straight to nowhere
Temptations; never hard to find
But to resist will always be the battle
That will come back and haunt you

I am my own worst enemy
I am the last man who can set me free

Go without, go within
Go where no one's ever been till you know
Rid your doubts, shed your skin
Feel the loss so you can win over your foe
Only then will you know

Catching up with the train that ran off
Early warnings told that no seat'd be free
If I waited too long
This time I do intend to stay on
Delusions passing by as I stare out
Into the void surrounding

I am my own worst enemy
I am the last man who can set me free

And as the silence wail
I tell myself all over
That if this just begun
I know this will always go on

There is something in the way that she talks to me
That makes me wonder if I'm really free or not

You are my star

You're a special kind of girl
The things that you say to me
They wander through my head
I am falling out of these boundaries that were made to break

You are my star

As galaxies appear those white sparks are creeping near
I'm no longer touching ground
This celestial incarcerator, my soft spoken vindicator
Circling around

Euphoria, I've arrived through my novas gentle care
Travelled through time and space to this lair of her

You are my star

Flickering candles far from reach
I know they are there, I just can't see
Blinded by her willingly
She knows what's best for me

Thought these streets always looked so empty
Paved with wet stones and oil
Flash of turn back to the gutter
Brief encounters all end with a slam
Then a presence stirs around me
I around and there's you
Seeking confrontation and contact
Filling the void with human touch
You feel the rush
Just like a crush

Take another step towards the light
You say you can be trusted
But something doesn't feel just right
Take another step no I won't bite
I'm all alone out walking
There is no one else in sight
Take another step
Take another step
Take another step, are you allright

Question answered without a word
What's wrong with you ain't physical
In a second arm twisted behind me
And my face pressed against the wall
Whispers ask for my belongings
Cellphone, wallet and the ring
There is nothing that I can't give you
There is nothing I cannot give
If you let me live
If you let me live

Take another look into my eye
You're stealing everything
But cannot ever take my pride
Take another coin, see if I care
Raping every pocket
But my integrity's not there
Take another thing
Take another ring
Take another swing
I won't fight back

Take another step, let's not deny
Strauss was on to something
And then Nietzsche got it right
Take another step, another crime
A small one for you maybe
But a giant for mankind
It's another step
It's another step
It's another step back for humankind

Tears escape from my eyes
As I'm reminded once again
By the failure of our kind
We're closing up this shop for good
Since we plundered all that we could
What will it take for you to open up your squinting eyes

It's who we are
It's who we are

You can't own what you loan
A short time we've claimed this soil
Which really is no mans land
Time is short, we're running out
But not of ideas of how to squeeze out
The last drops of the borrowed world we call our own

It's who we are
Can we accept and just go on?
It's who we are
We're trading off the breaking dawn

Unknowing you blend into the dough
Handing your votes to those who are thought of to know
What is left to say

It's sickening me when they're raking in
They couldn't care less as long as they win
It's sickening me when those who have it all
Elbows others to get some more
It's sickening that they'd rather rape the earth
And claim that they're just quenching out thirst
It's sickening how we choose to neglect
How it all unfolds

A vestigial prophecy
Of tomorrows floating orb of debris
A faded memory
Drained out it monuments
The echoes of ashamed lament
Of what evolved from silent consent

As a phantom of the past
Holding the cast

As the shadow of a lucent moon
Burned out light years too soon
Benighted we fail to attune
This acheronian state, is it our fate
Way out of sight
Absorbed by night

An endless line
Running past the signs
Thus condoning the fall of all

Shadow of a lucent moon
Burned out light years too soon
Benighted we fail to attune
This acheronian state, is it our fate
Way out of sight
Absorbed by night

It's sickening me how we're wearing down
What is in our care to hand it on
It's sickening me how we fail to see
That all of this just ain't meant for you and me

Inverting the inverted in disguise
The past becomes alive within their minds
Rotten to the core, so old and foul
Pages that rule their way of life
Eyes and ears forever sealed shut
Kneeling spiritually autistic sheep
Wide open now to take it all in
Orders from high above

Can you see what they do
Erasing, re-writing the truth
Can you hear what they say
One God, one path Amen

Seven days
To replace an ocean of time
Discard all reason and pave the way
The science of God has arrived

Right through your eyes
The light now does shine
Blinding you this veil of illumination
Across the world
The light now goes dim
Darkened by this veil called salvation

From Genesis and onwards
Everything's been set
Crown of the creation
Everything is ours
Mother Nature weeps
Subjected to abuse
Naked apes with hubris
Shameless pseudo prophets

Can you see what they do
Erasing, re-writing the truth
Can you hear what they say
One God, one creed Amen

Spreading out infiltrating high and low
Discard your questions and shut your mouth
The silence of God has arrived

Right through your soul
The light now does shine
Blinding you this veil of illumination
Across the world
The light now goes dim
Darkened by this veil called redemption

Inverting and dismembering their souls
Dogmatic scum deceptive angel-ghouls
Histrionics, tongues that speak entwined
Preaching sickness right into the spine
Eyes and ears forever sealed shut
Kneeling spiritually autistic sheep
Wide open now, dead inside
Laughter from high above

Can you see what they do
Erasing, re-writing the truth
Can you hear what they say
One God, one creed Amen

Pave the way enemies shall not be spared
What once was written must be true
The science of God has arrived

Right through your eyes
The light now does shine
Blinding you this veil of illumination
Across the world
The light now goes dim
Darkened by this veil called salvation
