Do you feel anything at all?
Do you hear steps at the door? Do you reckon the smell of....? It's life-the the dark that binds you Frigthened by your own smell Bitternes will run you through Silent screaming Turning, twisting the alphabet Frantic eyes Awaiting the answer Splinters of a poem Fragments of what you used to be Habitual and gullible Run-down memoirs is all that's left Do you wish to sleep? Do you aim for the shadow? Do you feel infected? It's life-the the dark that binds you It's the cowardice that puls you under And takes you to the end, where it begins Release, the world is waiting on your arrival Close your eyes, as we witness another bullet ride Do you know about atrocity? Do you that everbody's gone? Do you know that you're on your own? It's life-the the dark that binds you 02. Pinball Map
As I aim for that bright white day
Conflict serum is my aura It seems that life's so fragile I guess I'll fly some other time I lack from superhighway thoughts Won't live as long as the city lights Soaked by underwater times Electric splash on a midnight drive Wish I could rape the day, just something radical Lost the sense of sweet things Who's gonna take me widely? Guided by the pinball map The driver, still unknown to me Who was sent to glorify? Before we injected this common pride Sometimes I don't belong Release me from your world Pacified by the small things in life I wait for earthquakes to rearrange Never been able to use the force I only have it read to me Despite all the misguided faith (Maybe) I'll find a place in this mess Early morning moments A glimpse of joy But soon it's over and I return to dust As I try to be Everything and everyone I shrivel up and waste away 03. Only For The Weak
I can't tolerate your sadness
Cause it's me you are drowning I won't allow any happiness Cause everytime you laugh, I feel so guity, I feel so guilty Am I forced to have any regret I've become the lie, Beautiful and free In my righteous own mind I adore and preach the insanity you gave to me Sell me the infection, it is only for the weak No need for sympathy, The misery that is me I've lost the ability to pain the clouds Cause it's me you're draining I'm stuck in this slow-motion dark day Cause everytime you run, I fall.. Behind, I fall behind And so I hear my voice again The tale of the bitter man here I am Shake the silence and hear what it says The tranquil pride that become the lie Sell me to infection, it is only for the weak No need for sympathy, the misery that is me Sell me to infection, it is only for the weak On bleeding knees, I accept my fate 04. ... As The Future Repeats Today
There's no place that still remains
Just deserted space all left in grey Why did we lose, the knowledge of time? Is this the price, the hell we pay? The poisoned fear known to man is he who try to find his path The collective force blaming you "This is day day we split in half" Thrown to the gallow, forgotten and sore sworn to be different in what way I can The sultry taste that is special to me is the last gleeful glimpse of a bitter man Down and troubled, in search for better days Back to the beginning, I'm at the end All my time, compressed to itching moments as the future repeats today So impressed, lost the faith in all I had Broken down, I'm on my way to be dissolved The hopes and prays of things to come I've lost them all with glory Urgent to aim for that short-lived joy I see gold in all that lies before me And so we ignore the beggers cup Praise your act in the Grand Finale Teach the unborn the winners sign a welcome grin to the world Royal 05. Square Nothing
For all the times you left me bleeding
Clouded, weakend by the haze Cut of my pride, enough to forgive Reconcile, back to square nothing It seems I lost my direction Don't have the strenght to let it slip Have no desire for the shore Just let me play here for some time Spend some quality time with the demon of mine I like the way you struggle but you know Im here to win Spent some quality time with my borrowed smile The gleam is replaced, rip me open and erase me Is this how I want to spend my days? Shadowed, it fears me, my utopia Try to find some peace to destroy These are my sins, I'm heading to fall Never understood though I accepted All the weakness that I discover You gave me a place to hide and lost the key Drowend my head just to see it sink (to the bottom) Spend some quality time with the demon of mine He said "I like the way you struggle but you know I'm here to win" Spent some quality time with my borrowed smile The gleam is replaced, rip me open and erase me Spent some quality time with the demon of mine I like the way you struggle but you know I'm here to win" Spent some quality time with my borrowed smile The gleam is replaced, rip me open and erase me 06. Clayman
Your self control makes me feel alone
I've tried confidence, had it for breakfast today I've lost the perfection, a mess without words (And) As the seasons change I'll continue to ignore The image I project - me without me The picture that I scanned is borrowed After the education you stopped making sense to me Seems to me that it's all the same, time and time again Slowly, all that I believed in, turning into a lie To aim and miss, my supernatural art Spending to much time with myself Trying to explanin who I am How come it's possible I wish there was a way (Suddenly) I feel so invinsible I'm the sculpture made out of clay I need someone to break the silence before it all falls apart I need something to cling onto before I break you in parts So afraid of what you may think And all the plastic people that surrounds me I have to find the path to where it all begins To teach the world my supernatural art 07. Satellites And Astronauts
Since the day of my departure
I've been stumbling through reality I play my symphony in reverse In search for that special path Be gentle to the tear in this I Lonesome arms, lost its wings again Buy me a trip to the moon So I can laugh at my mistakes I can see the end from here From this perspective it looks kind of silly Satellites and astronauts Tell me there are greater things ahead Make me feel like a man A silent cry from the middle of hell I - the irony - I promise, I'll be mature So please, invite me to your shelter again Been hiding since I heared "never" Take me back to yesterday, I need to grow Steal my mask and make me pay I need a new skin I'm going insane 08. Brush The Dust Away
In the most desolate corner
A bad case of the urban blues Another brick in the living shadow All inhale the downward spiral Hey, get in line for tragic Let us dance to the pistol magic Just aim and end another But think, as I rape your mother Another player joins the table Who I can or cannot trust When do we get assigned? Pure and precious with bad intensions Hey, come and join the show All the cameras are ready to go Just aim and end another But think, as I rape your mother A single step - a garbled life Where's the profit? Your rage - the pain Will it all be worth it? Genetic, it seems to be.... Abandon, the mass ideal We think we're in control then we become the things we hate Lets re-unite and brush the dust away Obtain a prosperous future and the admiration of all Act in "the sensations" media hour All inhale the downward spiral 09. Swim
As we build a brand new planet
Lets reconstruct and get it straight Unlock forgotten skills Travel to a new dimension Souls from the dark seduction (Take heed), we are the new invention We're the settlers of year zero Lets reconstruct and take it back Leaders of our time Heading for a downfall The threshhold of revolution (Take heed)The last freedom call Blanked out fire etched on the chrystal display The sees are deep You better swim Don't go numb Collect the word, add some gold and give it back The sees are deep You better swim Don't go numb From a thousand branches Spreading the new voice As we're heading for the throne Connect, evolution will begin 10. Suburban Me
The self-inflicted state of mind
A one-man struggle beneath the tower I think the clock still exist god just forgot to tap my shoulder I woke up today I wish I felt something The odour of my apathy just might be true I wan't to be the things I see The pilgrim that is me But I know I ain't that free The suburban me Spirits rise and miss the eye Covered by the stench of judgment As gods reflection test my pride I serve the failure that's haunting me Twisted visions toturing Who claims to be the one? That filtered smile just might be true "On half-speed, tonight I suffer Satisfaction brings the unheeded" Can you hear the message, as I wrestle with the clouds? I'm on the way to succumb, It just might be true 11. Another Day In Quicksand
The other side of the platinum door
another day in quicksand Still feel close to nowhere I hope this is the right way How come you see me as an enemy? We just think in different words I see beuty in dead flowers I let the tide show me what's next But all you do is fade away There's no shame in being the fool I've been to places you'll never find The empty plate that you call home Won't bring glimmer to future years By myself, staring into space You're just bored of the silence it makes 12. World Of Promises
They come from a land were the sun don't shine
running away from the cold They travel so far in the name of love hoping the dreams will come true Walking the way through endless fields trying to make it together Eternal grin.. Ever seeking.. Jester the fool.. to fall in love And they will give anything just to be free from the pain and they won't surrender Living in a world of promises Living in a world of dreams and hopes Living in a world of promises Lost in the city wondering why no one will open the door It's more to the truth than meets the eye something they all felt before And they will give anything just to stand tall once again and they won't surrender Living in a world of promises Living in a world of dreams and hopes Living in a world of promises In the tan of the nigh can hear them crying out for a life to hol on to Somebody knows were the answers lying wait for your trails and don't let go Living in a world of promises Living in a world of dreams and hopes Living in a world of promises 13. Strong & Smart
One lie was all it took everything ended right there
You didn't seem to care One lie I walked away weight on my shoulders was heavy Barrel to my head Will you give me a good excuse Will you let me die right here and now ? I can't think of another way But I'm open to any good advice Everything is falling apart Trying hard to be strong and smart One day was all it took Start to get back on my feet heart begin to beat One week I'm feeling great dancing around in the street Feeling young and free Will you give me a good excuse Will you let me die right here and now ? I can't think of another way But I'm open to any good advice Everything is falling apart Trying hard to be strong and smart |
