Tracks



01. Waves Of Black

The truth we all hide from
When trapdoor swings out from
Beneath your feet you'll find the
Bottomless free fall
It's nothing superior
We're only inferior
Come hell or high water
There is the greed for more

So tempted to close our eyes
Pretend that we're safe and sound
But when we are lost
There is no one left for the search of us

This is the universe not made for me
And this is the universe, not made for you
We are the paradox, we can't live forever
In the waves of black
Where the dead whales can't wave back

It's a system of balance
We are disguise of reality
It's a conflict and health
We are friends, we are enemies

But every time I take a look at us
It's like the wisdom is forbidden in us
We are no reason of creation
But a humiliation

02. The Unfinished Story

I am running but I don't know
What is the price or the way to go
Change me, to find the leak in my soul
My system, the blood is draining in
Come on, down here, align with me
Where every moment is dead to me

I have come a long way
Fought through this, insecure
Tears have drawn this road paved
And stacked with the hearts and shades

Brand new haven, hold me in your hell
Oh you can't kill these dreams inside of me
Maybe all we have is part of the glory
The unfinished story with no end

With blue eyes staring brand new sky of silver lines
Forever I now prevail

Maybe we could turn this into heaven
Maybe we could leave out all hell
Now please tell me it was worth the pain
And patch me up from this dead man's opera

03. Devourer

Stuck inside a downward spiral
Out of all this mental disgrace
You're something more
Follow me, I'll show you the early grave
Like a portrait for the diseased
Paint the picture of me

Sitting on a throne of grace
I do not beat my own heart
The only thing here not so vague
We cannot live forever
If you seek for your salvation
All you have is a tribulation
Just hold onto your fucking self

We don't even know ourselves
The mirrors show no permanence
Our house is turning into a grave so
We close the curtains for the change

All vague, are we awake?
When you look back, asking, begging for more
I'm sure you knew that it's all gone wrong
When you are lost and only begging for hope
I'm sure you'll comfort from
Starting a fight, a doom in a mind
Whatever you do, keep begging the skies like
Our humans with no humanity

When you look up, asking "Are we alone?"
I'm sure you know that it's not too far
When you are lost and only begging for rope
I'm sure you'll comfort from
Keeping it tight, the vision in sight
Whatever you do, keep begging the lies might
Give a shit about the reckoning

We hide the certain
Our hearts are the countdown clocks
Just clicking into being done
Our minds are the counters of this
Loneliness, the death will devour

04. Alysia

Did you hear the rumble of the morning rain?
Did I always stay alone, awake, all in vain?
Do you still wait there for me?
As I will 'till the end of our days

I'm not sure I feel all sane
I lack this bitter but it's all the same
There's not much left from me
But the words of this serenade

Do you remember us the way I do?
Do you see the beauty the way I saw in you?
Taste of last kiss, the promise was it bitter?
I'm sure you knew
We had it all
We have it all
And we always will

With coldest heart that's buried deep
My last words in voiceless sound of sleep
I've done, given all my everything
Could you kill the grief and turn this into sweet relief?

Until my last inhale we'll breathe the same air
As we will dance
This one last serenade

Do you remember us the way I do?
Do you see the beauty the way I saw in you?
Taste of last kiss, the promise was it bitter?
I'm sure you knew
We had it all
We have it all
And we always will

Take my hand and hold onto me
As we face the last break of dawn
Together we drift to the unknown
Hold my hand in this one last serenade

Do you remember us the way I do?
Do you see the beauty the way I saw in you?
Taste of last kiss, the promise was it bitter?
I'm sure you knew
We had it all
We have it all
And we always will

Did we run into the hearts of the great unknown?
Did we ever choose to choke in fire?
Did we only hide the truth in the lies and silence?
Take my hand, hold onto me
As we face the sweet relief

05. My Route

This is my route, I've started with loneliness
It's all, well, unknown for the most
With all these bumps as deep as truth that hurts
Twisted with endless turns where
I feel so blindfolded
All dark, every turn

I had a dream of waking up
From all this stored in me, gone, undone
I have no answers, I have no lullabies
Can we just pretend everything is fine?

My route
I've drawn when hopeless
It's all, well, undriven for the most
With all these wounds as deep as truth that hurts
Twisted with endless turns where
I, I had a dream of waking up
All this stored in me, all gone, undone
All dark, every way

I had a dream of waking up
From all this stored in me, gone, undone
I have no answers, I have no lullabies
Can we just pretend this one time
Everything is and will be fine?

Run, route that I've shown
God, I'm still faint
Gas, brake, stuck in my throat
You feel so slow
Could you still show me the way back, my broken road?
Now, will you take me home?

On my route
Paved with all my tears, slippery for the most
With all this love as deep as daggers turn
Twisted with endless turns where
I feel so unguided
All dark, never learn

I had a dream of waking up
From all this stored in me, gone, undone
I have no answers, I have no lullabies
Can we just pretend, can we just pretend?
In a dream of waking up, all gone
Dead memories stored in me, all gone
It's all metaphors, i have no lullabies
And nothing's broken this time

06. Pieces

All hearts in a million pieces
Which is the part we're supposed to follow?
Does it change for you ever?
Do it again, do it again for me
Filling skies with the false denial
What a waste of parallel desire
Oh, you ever, whoever you choose
Turn this into me

You were my sun, you were my
Every step in the darkest story
Came to an end with none of the glory
My angel crush

It's hard to step back from this constant fall
All in my weakness had me carry on
These vilest secrets, there's no more regrets
They came for me and there was no one left to
Speak for me, crush my dreams

Raise your holy fucking grails for
Judgement of the day as you set
The sores for our love

To be the hunter, I've been the hunted
To fight the wars, I've given away my victories
To be the greatest, I've beaten the traitor
To feel like royal, I've surely been on my knees
Crawling in my dreams

Raise your holy fucking grails for
Judgement of the day as you set
The sores for our love

I've been hoping for deliverance
Waiting for the miracle
To restore

Now all yours, my form of breaking
Reformed my shadow, endless mistakes deep in
All yours, fought through my aching
We fought this sorrow
Endless, the stakes wither

07. Ask And You Shall Receive

Right here in the end of my rope
Little lost in my mind, little gone
I left my heavens, left my hells
Because your world got it all wrong

So much I've been dreaming
As much I've seen the unseen
In my mind, in my head
I think I know myself too well

But you still cannot seem to know the difference
Your heroes wear capes, it's pushing me away from you all
I can't see the reasons you've got so far

If this is the life that you wanted
Let the rain pour down right here
If I was the step where you stumbled
Ask and you shall receive
Your own eyes, save yourself
Your own life, save yourself
The life of all so broken
Can you stand for all that you believe?

Pushed me into this, I know myself too well
You pulled me into this, just spare me
Ask and you shall receive

The god ends here
Don't push me too far
There is the circle of you traitors
I know your hearts bleed fear
As I finally get you out of heaven to visit our hell

But you still cannot seem to know the difference
And all of your gripe is stinking, stay away from me now
I can't see but reasons you lack so far

From swerve of shore to bend of bay
Because the change is here to stay
This is my last compulsion for
Your own eyes, save yourself
Your own life, save yourself
My life of oh so broken
The god ends here

08. August

Goodbye, my sunshine, my love

Such a trait
You rant us, there's no right to choose
Spilled the blood, took a stain in your own book
Across the pages, over the edges
You know the world could do without you
We all know there was more than this
You can't deny you didn't know all that
When pushing someone to the edge
Is oppression, a decision made

It's easy for you to say
You know how some people breathe no more
Try to emphasize, feels so mesmerized
We know how things can go all so wrong

Pray, pray, your emptiness is despicable
Paralyzed in your mind
Pushed August away and brought in the fall
Just fuck y'all

As we faced the final sunrise
Never knew this was the last
Goodbye, my sunshine, my love
Given it all, a hurricane
Always part of the history
So goodbye, my sunshine, my love

Let it sink in deep
Nothing will ever compare
Against the truth, the world does not have your back

There's one new pair of angel wings in heaven
So goodbye, my sunshine, my love
Just fuck y'all

09. On My Throne

Pouring hours to silence
Cannot find my throne
What did you bring for my doom?
Sleep of a hurricane
Thanks for asking, all is fine
It's just the sound of a time in me
New dawn will bring new flood

I never meant to force my dreams
Can't push my heart aside
Always painting my mind
With you, new dawn in sight
Roses and droseras
Cards closer to my chest
As I am waiting for you
To show the real numbers

Take a bullet, bullet, bullet to my fucking head
So much wasted time on those bridges
All really to see the day
There's a pretender on my throne
Left behind me

Take this crown, I fall right here
But I don't claim we're never one and whole
If that's all she wrote
Forgive my lack of grace
If that's all she wrote
Forgive my lack of faith
If that's all she wrote
Forgive my lack of...
I wish that I could say
Now this was meant to be

The cold is real, guess that's all I know
The scars I feel, guess they will not go
Embracing time as I fall in life
Dethrone my presence
Decrown my heart instead
'Cause no more, no long
Thorns feel none if life's so fucking cheap

Take this crown, I fall right here
But I don't claim we're never one and whole
If that's all she wrote
Forgive my lack of grace
If that's all she wrote
Forgive my lack of faith
If that's all she wrote
Forgive my lack of...
I wish that I could say
Now this was meant to be

There's a pretender on my throne
I take a bullet, bullet, bullet to my fucking head
Whenever you cannot run away with me
In the end of our road
You'll put the crown back on my throne

10. White Feather

Counted my failures
Mistakes I've made
Broken promises
Times I've lost my faith
All those empty words
Made no sense to me
Staring down the edge, I see not many enemies

It's getting harder and harder to breathe
Will I keep my head on the surface
As I am waiting for the pieces to fall in
Just to find a little purpose?

To be the one and be the only
To wear this crown of a true facade
I am the one and I'm the only
To stay in the deepest and the darkest
Shades when you're gone

We will stick to this together
Whenever you will see the white feather
And I will treat you like a love without a fade

Nothing will ever compare
Not even close to you, my love
No one will ever make a difference like you do
But you know I just have to let you go now

And it's slowly getting harder and harder to see
I am waiting for the pieces to fall in free
Where we will always walk together
You will see the white feather
It's getting harder and harder to breathe
Won't keep my head on the surface
It's getting harder and harder to feel
This will be my white feather
