1. Breathless
Pay back for what you stole from me
You are burning my eyes out with all your filthy lies
I am falling from a roof top and no one wants to catch
My body is a drop bomb who doesn't want to explode
Breathless
I can't breathe in here
Sleepless
Can't stand another nightmare
Hatred
Bring me awake - Take me away
Voices whispering
Drices me insane
Break me, break me, break me, break me with...
Spoiled dreams
For all eternity
Bring me the storm
Let the sun rise up
It's time for preparation
Convince me with hate
I am breaking through from behind
Breathless
I can't breathe in here
Sleepless
Can't stand another nightmare
Hatred
Bring me awake - Take me away
2. The Wind-Up
Turn away
With lies and dismay
Burn it again
Repeating the patterns in vein
Waste - Dumped - Soil
Wind - Cold - Storms
Keep this progress
Until the world is undressed
Strangulation of mother earth itself
Then so be it - gather around the show
The wind-up of mother earth itself
Waste - Dumped - Soil
Turns into:
Wind - Cold - Storms
When will we understand
The time is short
When will we face the truth
Waste - Dumped - Soil
Turns into:
Wind - Cold - Storms
3. Forever Discounted
Tortured with overwhelming pain
Never let go, never repent
Forever discounted
Under the surface there are a million ways to be
In your world the only way is yours
Keep it running before it may coagulate
Let me live my life, let me be
Prey for the life that you have wasted away
Try to regain some piece of mind from me instead
Instead
I can't breathe in here - Take me away
Can't stand another nightmare - Please take me away
4. Eternal Failure
Burned paper faded in ashes
Cold silent night
Shadows lurking from behind
in the whispering wind
Like a child you're to blind, to blind to see
Tomorrow will be your eternal failure
Crawling for cover
Frightened of the dark
The blue lighted moon will soon be gone
Enter hysteric paranoia
Drained of gain
Settle for strength
Like a child you're to blind, to blind to see
Tomorrow will be your eternal failure
Cry out loud - "You've failed!"
Who would you blame as the scapegoat?
Drown yourself - "You're free!"
Shout out - "I've failed!"
5. The Judgement
Grab the spoon
Dig out your mind
Build a new spectrum from the labyrinth inside
A cold rush of pain
Creeping in your chest
Bring out the hate let the barrier fall
Fumbling in the dark
Back to ground zero
Trapped
Reached the point of no return
Your mind is numb
Eyes pitched black
Blind
Read the signs
Because you already are
Lost - Find a new path
Raped - Far from all trust
Haunted - By your own friends
Brought - To the judgement
6. Cover It Up
Crowd of people
All sorts of reasons
Fragile like doves
Be carried off by death - By Death
Cover it up
Take us down - Unlight the torch
Drown in out words
Whose fault is it? - Who is to blame?
Go on and take my life but you can't
Take my pride
Is the revenge still available to be had?
Fighting a struggle with death
A feeling of hunger
a sensation of cold
appeals to the emotions of fear
The frightening chills burns through your spine
Numbed by it's powers
I can't believe anything you're saying to me
Blame yourself
7. Dead Ends
We listen - from our unconscious state of mind
On what we've lost in every broadcast
We follow - the stream to explore it all
Seven days has past and I'm still falling
Dead ends
Thrown back at me
Faded
(Into) another shape of grey
I have become to understand
Right on time
That I am trapped in this dead end
Forever more
Forced into submission
Run away from this misery
Right on time
Forever more
8. The Game
Change it to the better
while you can
Collect the memories
of what's left...
Burn it down
Tear it apart
Smash it to pieces
Rip it apart
Bring a start to what's already begun
This is not a matter of time
Draw this pictures withing my head
Life if the name of the game I am losing
Fly
Fly, mother fucker fly
Acclaim: "Free like a bird"
When you lock me up in a cage
"Fly, mother fucker fly,
before I cut your wings to"
9. Stop those Waves
With no look back
we're heading for that goal
Try - to make your way
tick - tick - tack
our time is running fast
"save your selves"
With no wat back
they'll catch us to their path
Try - to make a turn
Out of hand
It's out of hand
Stop - to make those waves
It is now to
stop those waves
It's time to make some change
With no way back
they'll catch us to their path
This is the wind-up
Of mother earth itself
Out of hand
It's out of hand
This is the wind-up
When will we understand
This is the wind-up
Of mother earth itself
This is the wind-up
When will we understand
10. Save the Day
Collect the filth and sell it
Invent new shit to improve it
Build it to a pile
or ram it deeper down for miles
Turn up the heat and boil it
Proceed, but still you know it
Drain out all her life
When I burst out to the sun
Stop - The waves
Save the day again
Save the day
Build it to a pile
or ram it deeper down for miles
Turn up the heat and boil it
Proceed, but still you know it
Drain out all her life
When I burst out to the sun
11. Breed the Disorder
Reality is a focused blur
Where insanity grows to its peak
Backstabbed with mischief
Unsatisfaction without control
Develop my scales
Be there
Breed the disorder
Rollin the dice, connect anti-pride
Capture its torn
Planting the seed, a handful of greed
Still life
Still hope
Let the sun rise up with me
It's time for preparation
Convince me with hate
I am breaking through from behind
