1. Rude Awakening
Let it bleed cause it shuts the doors
the same doors you thought slammed in your face does bleed
you've just thrown yourself against
what you did hate them for makes you bleed makes you proud warns you when and why to feel sad drags you deep down in your own mud makes you bite the dust just before this rude awakening could be the stepping stone of the rest of your life but this rude awakening will be your gravestone
it's the price of your lies what do you hide behind your locked eyelids you walk away that's not yours cause you're ruled by your own old fears
live a life that's not yours
but its own the slave of your self-apathy
you won't find cause you're ruled by your own old fears living suffering gloving cursing dying frightening life try to hide cut its throat but you can't because it's yours reveals you as cold as you seem reveals you as lost as you are.
2. What's Up In Your Cryotube?
So what still running in your cage
can't keep your ears to those
as sad as you live beyond repetition
run away or fade away
don't you think your world is too small
don't you think live before you die
what's up in your cryotube.
3. Stillborn Prophet
Away from this life
back to the swamp trampling the burning ashes of my shattered dreams
underfoot may be facing at last with all my certainties which have been burnt on the altar of self confidence
there's no pupil in the eye of the stillborn prophet back to the swamp falling back to the swamp
since now certainties have to belong to my fears nothing is safe
definition's dead as stillborn prophet
I could hope but hope doesn't fit the facts.
4. End's Eve
5. Lab Of Their Will
Your soul is ready inseminated
their thoughts their love their hate broken muppet you must survive gaze inside no more soul desperation altered in high performance machines devastated like an afterwar field
what you lose of yourself try to triumph over this scum thrown in this their reality lab of their will
you have to share your world with those snakes please don't stop your own production of venom thrown in this their reality slave of that your cupidity never no more never no more
my choices were yours my life was yours
but will it change.
6. Sunset Motel
I am that that unlikeable child
definitively unwanted with the round dirty face
who before the giant streetlights
or under the grand dames also illuminated
I am that repulsive child that improvises abed out of an old cardboard box
and wait certain that you will accompany me imminent terror
imminent leprosy
imminent terror
imminent fleas of offenses and the imminent crime
I would take that opportunity to steal your wallet.
7. Pull The Pin
Aiming at your vein needs
being someone you can't be
becoming something you're not
catching your feet in your fears
trying to spread your broken wings
trying to take off contemplating your failure
hanging yourself at dawn cause tomorrow won't ever let you in there's no reward for your lifelong bleeding
did you deserve all these years of suffering everything's lost there is no turning back
what did you live for hope did finally burn you'll never fit this life
what will you die for
you just don't want to know
pull the pin out of your brain
ducking your head is your due as a pain addict
you were born happy to quit this life obscene.
8. Seeking An Exit
Could I sink deeper in the swamp stench into which I did dive
your helped to my loss just let me help myself
no more time to lose with your stupid advices
no more blood to spill seeking an exit walking down a stairway which leads behind me
I'm seeking an exit again and again
Seeking an exit can't get out of my despair
burning my skin until my flesh is black
I'm still poisoning myself seeking an exit needing the exit the despair within hope is a false friend trusting is lying in reality
there's no light ther's no light bearer.
9. Ecce Lex
10. Feed the Living
11. Turned Black
12. Unwilling and Slow
