1. Muddy Clepsidra
2. Forbidden
She will try again to bring you under this ground
All the words I spend fade away with no sound
You have lost your face you’ve got no ambitions
In her wicked games you became the main star
She took your breath away
Taking you under
She took your heart away
Please don’t believe her now
Forbidden skies surround you
Skies are turning red
Forbidden dreams invade you dreams will turn you dead
You fell in love again and this is forbidden
She’ll tear your soul and then throw it in the garbage
Try to comprehend that you’re just “another one”
I’ll bring you flowers when you are six feet under
She took your breath away
Taking you under
She took your heart away
Please don’t believe her now
Forbidden skies surround you
Skies are turning red
Forbidden dreams invade you dreams will turn you dead
Make sure now you’re recovering
Make sure now that she’ll get away
Here she comes again with her cruel intentions
All the things I said plenty words all wasted
Don’t come crying to me cause I’ll say “I told you”
Don’t come lying to me have a nice day under
She took your breath away
Taking you under
She took your heart away
Please don’t believe her now
Forbidden skies surround you
Skies are turning red
Forbidden dreams invade you dreams will turn you dead
3. The World Apart
Getting used to running against the wind
Haven’t got the spirit by my side
Getting used to living alone
With whom I’d ever share the bone?
Now I feel the world
I feel the world
I feel the world apart
Strangled by the rhythm of these days
Dodging words that would cut me like a knife
Getting used to making a stand
Who’s gonna ever take my hand?
Now I feel the world
I feel the world
I feel the world apart
Now I feel the world
I feel the world
I feel the world apart
4. This Everlasting Mind Disease
I’ve been too silent, here waiting for something new
I’ve changed my way of living, no more giving, I gave it all
I kept my faith and dreaming, no complaining, here I am
So many colors changing, the most are fading into grey
My life’s like a broken TV
Colors, stripes and nothing to see
This everlasting mind disease
It ain’t no good for me
The deepest toil and inner pain
A useless agony
Now times are changing, consuming a reaction
Many days of bleeding, you treated me like a stepping stone
Emptiness and daydreaming still believing in a chance
Too many colors changing, feeling dizzy, I see black
This everlasting mind disease
It ain’t no good for me
The deepest toil and inner pain
A useless agony
My life’s like a broken TV
Colors, stripes and nothing to see
This everlasting mind disease
It ain’t no good for me
The deepest toil and inner pain
A useless agony
5. Picture on the Wall
When I turned my eyes on
And you weren’t by my side
Realized that you passed to another life
Started to set my mind up
But all I see is black
There’s no remedy all I need is time
All I see is a picture on the wall
All I see is a figure in my soul...
6. Dice Rolling
How can you buy all the shit that he is selling you now?
How can you take all the words when none of them are true?
And when you cry no one will give you consolation
And when you pay I’ll be there saying : “I told you”
You've got to pay your dues now
You've got to face your future
It’s time to stay and take it to the end don’t fear
I’ll laugh, you’ll cry, this is the way things go now
You've got to pay your dues now
You've got to face your future
How could you buy all the shit he spread on your face now?
How could you take all those words when you knew they weren’t true?
You've got to pay your dues now
You've got to face your future
7. Drowning
God will hate me every day for what I’m doing
For what I say
Lived a lifetime in the mud like a torture
Like a flood
I’m drowning every day
I won’t let go
I’m drowning every night
I won’t let go...I won’t let...
People hate me I don’t care. Some avoid me
It’s not fair
No direction or place to go. Now I’m losing
My self control
I’m drowning every day
I won’t let go
I’m drowning every night
I won’t let go...I won’t let...
It’s finally over I’ll close my eyes
Close the curtain no more show now
No more breathing no more air
I’m too exhausted to despair
I’m drowning every day
I won’t let go
I’m drowning every night
I won’t let go...I won’t let...
8. Blindfolded Walkthrough
There ain’t no oxygen for me, no more left to breathe
No second chances only dreams, no overtime to play
Since that day has come, there is something in my body
That is growing like a fire inside
Since that day has come, there is something that’s stressing
My resistence to swim against the tide
Faithless, the more things change
The more I’m faithless, a solution needs to be found
A solution for my weakness
A blindfolded walk on through bridges of sand
A spark in the darkness of this wasteland...
Walking on bridges of sand
Falling into nowhere
Walking on bridges of sand
Falling into nowhere
Faithless, the more things change
The more I’m faithless, a solution needs to be found
A solution for my weakness
A blindfolded walk on through bridges of sand
A spark in the darkness of this wasteland...
Walking on bridges of sand
Falling into nowhere
Walking on bridges of sand
Falling into nowhere
9. See You Down
I closed my eyes but you’re still here
It was wasted time and wasted breath
Don’t wanna see you down...
Someone said I’m wrong again
All I need is to rid this filth
Don’t wanna see you down...
I’ve tried so hard to erase your face from my mind
I’ve tried so hard to confine you away from me
Far away...so far away...so far...away...down
I don’t want to see you down
Down on me don’t lean on me...
Don’t wanna see you down...
10. Slow Motion “K” Us
Fog in the sky, sand in the eyes, an evil dance
Nowhere to go, nowhere to flow, no second chance
People that come, people that go, no permanence
Numerous times, we need to try, perseverance
I won’t survive another day, I won’t survive another
Don’t wanna waste another day, don’t wanna waste another
I won’t survive another day, I won’t survive another
We should try to change the rhythm need to calm it down
Slow the rhythm hold your horses
Slow the rhythm give a chance to your breath
Slow the rhythm hold your horses
Slow the rhythm give a chance to your breath
Wicked desire, sex in our minds, horniness
Walking too fast, eating too fast, dying young
“big men” pollute, “big men” corrupt, bringing death
Children that cry, children that shoot, what is this?
I won’t survive another day, I won’t survive another
Don’t wanna waste another day, don’t wanna waste another
I won’t survive another day, I won’t survive another
We should try to change the rhythm need to calm it down
Slow the rhythm hold your horses
Slow the rhythm give a chance to your breath
Slow the rhythm hold your horses
Slow the rhythm give a chance to your breath
The Tic-tac is melting away
No more rushing
There ain’t no time left to pray
No forgiving...
I won’t survive another day, I won’t survive another
Don’t wanna waste another day, don’t wanna waste another
I won’t survive another day, I won’t survive another
We should try to change the rythim need to calm it down
Slow the rhythm hold your horses
Slow the rhythm give a chance to your breath
Slow the rhythm hold your horses
Slow the rhythm give a chance to your breath
11. Lonesome Existence
Like a swim through troubled waters
Like a picnic in the dark
Like a half step away from the border
Like a rose without a thorn
When I feel she’s getting closer
Something wicked falls straight on my head
Dancing all the night alone
Dancing all alone
Dancing ‘til the break of dawn
Dancing all alone
Erase my sins and lay your hands on me...
Never had the face to call her
Never found the reason to...
Never meant to hit her harder
I doubt I ever wanted to...
But when I felt she’s getting closer
Something crooked fell right on my head
Dancing all the night alone
Dancing all alone
Dancing ‘til the break of dawn
Dancing all alone
Erase my sins and lay your hands on me...
Dancing all the night alone
Dancing all alone
Dancing ‘til the break of dawn
Dancing all alone
Erase my sins and lay your hands on me...
