1. Flashback
Words: Seba
I'd like to decorate
The music with some words
Words that are echoes of my thoughts
Total changes in the mind
To deny ingenuousness
No sentiment for the prevous life
I would lie
If I said that I don't miss the past
Lie... but the pride leads my way
So many words to say
So many memories
Hatred that flows in veins
Can't stand that shallow person
That used to be my friend
Nothing's gonna change it till I'm dead
There comes a day
When you will see
What you have done
Your stupidity
One day your life
Will pay you back
Your dirty tricks
With interest
Shades of grey will fill your eyes
With no fresh victims you will die
There won't be any helping hand
You cannot win, do you understand?
I would lie
If I said that I don't miss the past
Lie... but the pride leads my way
2. Ante Meridiem
Words: Seba Another day just passed away
Darkness is coming fast
Turn off the light, and don't forget
About the roller blind
But there's a light that won't be off
Unless a chapter is done
Even a war, eclipse of the sun
Cannot stop me right now
It's 2 AM
A screen in front of me
I'm writing down
What you'll read carefully
It's fucking hard
To let your thoughts to be
Changed into words
Relieving your feelings
The bloodshot eyes
The mind is blank
Headache is back
Wish for a break
That is the end of Chapter One
Another book of life
You'd better read it once maybe twice
And tell me what have you found?
If you don't get what's all about
I will explain it to you
Willingly but some other time
Maybe in Chapter Two
It's 2 AM
A screen in front of me
I'm writing down
What you'll read carefully
It's fucking hard
To let your thoughts to be
Changed into words
Relieving your feelings
The bloodshot eyes
The mind is blank
Headache is back
Wish for a break
3. Citizen's Vote
Words: Seba Things we cannot see
Cannot believe
Thoughts we cannot touch
We cannot grasp
Feelings, unspoken words
Untamed minds
Pain, the fire inside
Prods us to shout
So-called wisdom ate your common sense
Excessive bodily needs shreds your brain
The weaker one the more have to say
How dare you scream that we're insane?
Personal gain
Lust for power
Dishonest dealings
Your daily bread
Well-tailored suit
His radiant smile
Invented cure
For a better life
Hidden deep behind distorted ethics
Gibbers loudly "that is the law"
The wallet stuffed with others naiveté
The berth he could sell mother for
Things we cannot see
We must believe
Thoughts we cannot fix
We leave unsaid
Personal gain
Lust for power
Dishonest dealings
Your daily bread
4. Monument
Words: Seba Throughout the world, a plague expands, everyone knows
Motherfuckers!
They rob your home, they kill your wife and disappear
They'll go again, to rape and burn, inspire fear
Motherfuckers!
Even when hurt, even when shot, they never die
...And
Why did you have to die?
Shouldn't have been taken from our lives
The need for speed that turned you on
Left nothing but your friends crying
We didn't want to know
How fragile our lives are
That crystal we're built from
Can be crushed instantly
It's strange thing to me
Criminals can live
They have the right to decide
Who dies or who may live
A teenager dead, quartered her head, just lust for the fame
Motherfucker!
They found the man, red-handed caught, locked in the cage
He'll face the law, with sneering face, with no regret
Motherfucker
25 years, then he'll be back, set for attack...
We'll keep in mind
The memories
Just who you are
Our remembrance
Won't fade away
In the course of time
You shouldn't have died
Shouldn't have been taken from our lives
The need for speed that turned you on
Left nothing but your friends crying
5. What If
Words: Seba What if you got to know that you are ill?
Incurably
What if your parents died?
You'd stay alone
Desolated
What if you had to run away from your house?
Consumed by war
What if you got rich one day?
I wonder if
You'd be the same
Have you ever thought of what
Could be happening in your life?
Is it worth thinking through?
Or waste the time (God) gave to you
What if you lost your job?
I'm sure you'd say
"It's not my fault"
What if you turned one day
To stinking beggar
From wealthy man?
What if your wife betrayed?
I bet you would not
Know who's to blame
What if you drove too fast?
Killed innocent
Giving no chance
What if you realized
That you fucked up
your whole life?
Believe me it'll be too late
To change anything
From your past.
6. Audience Not Allowed
Words: Seba Look! They are here again
Vultures, hungry for your life
Ready to tread on the heels
Paid for constant surveillance
Trained to be imperceptible
They turn themselves into the air
Check the sandwich you've just made
Maybe they put eyes into the bread
Turn your head around
And remember what you see
They're still watching you
The biography is almost done
They function like
Unfeeling tool
No life on their own
Deaf and blind fools
Blinded by fear
Deafened by facts
If they could see
The deepest scratch
Onto your weak heart
It would be used
To bare your soul
To let them laugh
Look! They are here again
Vultures, hungry for your life
Ready to tread on the heels
Paid for constant surveillance
Trained to be imperceptible
They turn themselves into the air
Check the sandwich you've just made
Maybe they put eyes into the bread
Turn your head around
And remember what you see
They're still watching you
The biography is almost done
7. World Wide Village
Words: Seba How many times did you leave your dimension?
How many thoughts have been spread?
How many times did you curse the connection?
How deep did you get into the swing?
Send yourself away
To the distant land
No questions who you are
Just be there
Be honest or lie
No money required
Maybe you can get to
The other side
How many names you had to remember
Is how many nicks you forgot
How strong is your need to get closer and closer
Why is that still inside your dreams?
Come back to reality
Realize, this is no way to live
Don't bare your dignity
Even though there's a lot of fun
Send yourself away
To the distant land
No questions who you are
Just be there
Be honest or lie
But a brain is required
To distinguish fakes
From your cyber life
8. Hypocritical Figure
Words: Seba Just tell me who you are
To judge me on this trial
You think you are like God
Cannot find your own mind
Tell them all the truth
I am not afraid
To share my whole world
Let the people know
What it was like
But you don't want them to know
No more dirty slanders
No more knives and blood
Non-existent sorrow
Non-existent past
All your sins absolved
Foolishness forgotten
The outward appearance
Erased, rejected, dead
Dead…
No more dirty slanders
No more knives and blood
Non-existent sorrow
Non-existent past
There is no my trial
There are your stinking lies
You cannot live without them
They make your figure shine
Cannot live without your lies
Cannot live without your lies
You don't exist without your lies
But others live without you...
No more dirty slanders
No more knives and blood
Non-existent sorrow
Non-existent past
All your sins absolved
Foolishness forgotten
The outward appearance
Erased, rejected, dead
9. No Ideology
Words: Seba Hearing voices of contempt
Wondering why we still do that
With all our enemies face to face
Trying to crush the wall they built
We keep on thinking this is real
No matter when and how
Hoping that one day you'll see
In our music is there no ideology
We don't write about fake life
As it is seen on TV screen
Not ashamed to speak it loud
To be free from stinking lies
To throw off counterfeit masks
Explain to us what is wrong
With us living in own world
There's no place for showing off
Try to take life as it is
Let us live how we need
Just be free from prejudice
