02. Army Of Agony Music by Olivier Wittenberg Lyrics by Nina Van Hecke
All the night
I've been wandering Crushed and trodden on by solid tanks of jealousy Find delight in my unpeacefulness Cause I can never mend The scars of overdose possession They'll take me home Hurt creature from the dark Put into a box and not to be released Too scared of the unknown Lost my will to fly I am settling into life in custody Keep the fools away now Cause my tendencies is aching Kicked off my high heels by combat shoes of hurt Retaliate and devastate my femininity All the night I've been wandering Crushed and trodden on by solid tanks of jealousy Find delight in my unpeacefulness Cause I can never mend the scars of overdose possession They'll take me home Hurt creature from the dark Put into a box and not to be released 03. Voices (Why You Can't Sleep At Night) Music by Olivier Wittenberg Lyrics by Nina Van Hecke
Another lonely Friday night
No footsteps on the stairs No one there to read for you Cause no one really cares Mommy daddy always fight But you they just ignore The yelling keeps on coming through You don't listen anymore Don't listen anymore... Cause they go on and on Reproaches hit the ceiling But they never ask how you're feeling So every time you go to bed You talk to the voices in your head You don't get along with the kids at school They're jealous of the voices Cause they only talk to you You hold on to your dearest friends In the world beneath your sheets They seem to be the only ones Who understand your needs Who understand your needs... Nobody speaks but the sound's always there Nobody hears helpless cries of despair Don't listen anymore Nobody knows what your silence's calling for And no one stops to wonder Why you can't sleep at night sleep at night Cause they go on and on Reproaches hit the ceiling But they never ask how you're feeling So every time you go to bed You talk to the voices in your head Cause they go on and on Reproaches hit the ceiling But they never ask how you're feeling So ever time you go to bed You talk to the voices in your head 04. Vanity (Pride's Paradox) Music by Olivier Wittenberg Lyrics by Nina Van Hecke
Had it with your lies and disguising
Always trying to win me over Pull me in then push me away I'm sick of this it's going nowhere Go away come back Boy just make up your mind Cause I am going mad So tired of your mindless games When all I want is you But for you I've always been like a play doll Twistin' me round keeping me down Only when you were needing attention Showing affection was allowed I had to set you free But in the end all you did Was come crawling back to me And just then it hit me You're not alone here with me There's always you and me and your vanity I hope someday you'll realise It's you who caused our sad demise Had it with your lies and disguising Always trying to win me over Pull me in then away I'm sick of this it's going nowhere Go away come back Boy just make up your mind Cause I am going mad So tired of your mindless games When all I want is you And just then it hit me You're not alone here with me There's always you and me and your vanity I hope someday you'll realise The one who caused our sad demise is you 05. Sleeping Beauty Music by Olivier Wittenberg Lyrics by Nina Van Hecke
Once upon a time
A princess and her love Lived in domestic happiness She praised the gods above Cause everything when perfect At least in her own mind Till the day she pricked her finger On the daily grind Wipe the floor with her devoted love Cause you're the one who's craving I'll be your dark fairy as long as beauty sleeps How did your white wedding dove Turn into a raven You play prince charming of As long as we share these sheets Everyday she talks to silhouettes of you She doesn't see the mirror's cracked dividing him in two Under the enchantment of routine words and deeds Remains blind to signals of his unfulfilled needs Call me when she falls asleep at night I won't tell if you won't tell anyone I won't tell You won't tell We won't tell anyone I don't live in lies They're only half the truth When the crossroad opens up Someone's gotta choose When the spell'll be broken Her silent chains will break Could you handle her being constantly awake? Wipe the floor with her devoted love Cause you're the one who's craving I'll be your dark fairy as long as beauty sleeps How did your white wedding dove Turn into a raven You play prince charming of As long as we share these sheets 06. Hollow Hearts Music by Olivier Wittenberg Lyrics by Nina Van Hecke
When I'm alone I crave your company
But when you're with me everything just falls apart Whole night of shallowness emptiness Pretending you're the world to me Darling remember this I'm the queen of hollow hearts Well haven't you heard I'm speaking the words Saying everything you wanna hear I know you're used to girls Who beg you on their knees But you're just here to feed my needs One of your worshiping goddesses Is something I will never ever be The higher you fly the greater the free fall If you don't know what's black You won't appreciate the white at all The higher you fly the deeper the free fall If you don't know what's wrong You won't appreciate the right at all When I'm alone I crave your company But when you're with me everything just falls apart Cause I'm the queen of hollow hearts One of your worshiping goddesses Is something I will never ever be By being numb I hold the trumps Avoiding my dependency Of your worshiping goddesses Is something I will never ever be My brain dictates by images It creates all I feel I have this hope that in the end All imagined becomes real 07. This Sweet Indifference Music by Olivier Wittenberg Lyrics by Nina Van Hecke
Superficiality
Universal side effect Of prosperity Contagious, growing fast Making everybody shine in mediocrity No sensation no temptation Just relieving lightness No chains in an empty space Got delayed in my desire Lost along the way Chasing the white chalked lines So consumed by the things we do Puppet show of empty conversation So confused that we look like fools Running by all the things that matter in life So consumed that we never ever stop To wonder why chances are still passing by Got delayed in my desire Lost along the way Chasing the white chalked lines Superficiality Universal side effect of prosperity Contagious, growing fast Making everybody shine in mediocrity So consumed by the things we do Puppet show of empty conversation So confused that we look like fools Running by all the things that matter So consumed things we do Puppet show empty conversation So confused Look like fools Running by things that really matter in life 08. Mindstruck Music by Olivier Wittenberg Lyrics by Nina Van Hecke
Killing our time with these movie lines
So into you and your bedroom eyes But hurry up before it's too late Before I go and rationalise No love in degrees sweep me off my feet Step into the light put all doubts aside You will give me everything But I'll come back and ask for more I'll come ask for more You can give me everything Killing our time with these movie lines So into you and your bedroom eyes But hurry up before it's too late Before I go and paralyse Run and hide From the objections in my mind It leaves me all alone When I don't wanna be Would a softer weaker me Make for you a better lover Would I fall in love more easily If someone could blow my cover If someone gave me up Run and hide From the objections in my mind It leaves me all alone When I don't wanna be 09. Russians Music & lyrics by Sting

Puzzled Music by Olivier Wittenberg Lyrics by Nina Van Hecke
Always at your side
But never good enough to take the lead So bendable Honouring your pride So hard to fill your perfectionist greed But I keep trying Cut me break me mould and remake me Show me how You lay all these pieces for me Find a way to solve this for me Put them all together I'll be anyone you want me to be You lay all these pieces for me Find a way I know there must be A put me back together I'll be anyone you want me to be I am never at ease Always changing for me will to please To be compliant You lay all these pieces for me Find a way to solve this for me Put them all together I'll be anyone you want me to be But how am I supposed to deal with this When I can't even fix my own Worn out shattered skin Considering what really matters In this customized relation Is that every time I let you have your way Denying myself in a helpless try To be loved by you You lay all these pieces But you never see the that there's another side I keep striving and aspiring After a lovable disposable tailored alter ego 11.
