Collisions 03:12
Collisions “I‘ll walk away-”, I said, “like my reflection did” Stepping aside broken glass “Mirrors lie”, it said, I just shook my head I can’t remember what happened next There’s something spinning in my chest In my stomach and in my legs Feels like I fucking shot myself in the back Please grant me to take this chance As this silence leaves through my veins Let the thunder shake my ears finally I’ve lived through different times Different faces, different lies But I’ve never been so close to fly It feels like a ghost Is staying at my side of this line Now I’m ready to spread my wings And let the martyrs die This thing on my face has become too hard to break But I will release myself before I suffocate Something has begun to rise in me And the deserts run dry My amputated wings are lifting me up As all my thoughts collide

Nothing in Bold Letters Walking down this lonely path, looking straight ahead Placing my feet carefully With every step I take appears another empty stare, Wanting to benefit from my fears Hollow frowns, hollow words trying to chain your head to rituals I write a love letter dedicated to death with a heart at the end Expressing my wish to see her again I can’t even spell my name as I sign the sheet with a shivering hand Oh how I miss my only friend Folding the words, they start to scream again Creeping up to me With poison down their throats they open their mouths Still only bullshit to come out You motherfuckers lost me a long time ago Relying on some kind of everlasting idols The only constant in life is nothing but the end You may be something but definitely not my friend Believe in money; believe in faeces; believe in any kind of shit they are preaching We are worth nothing at all. We were meant to fuck and fall. You are irrelevant like a drop falling into the sea So don’t expect any loving words to come from me I will not stand in line for a dubious contract to be signed I will not shake hands for a fucking black hole in the sky I will not let somebody confuse my mind.

Pendulars 03:11
Pendulars How can I survive? Being thrown into an empty plain Where no one is really aware of the shit that’s being preached all around of us Have we forgotten our identities while growing up between the lies they’re feeding us Stumbling into a direction called nowhere Carrying weight on our backs Clones around me, swallowing shit they are fed with I’ve seen everything on TV, yet no hope for humanity Walking alone with my both middle fingers up Only a few fucking names to trust Has this all really taken us so far? Walking alone with my both middle fingers up Almost all doors have been shut Tied limbs can never ever win a war I’ve already seen them carve our full names into a tombstone In a world where even death has become another fucking product to consume We are nothing more but some dolls on a string to use and throw away It makes me angry how they’re feeding on people’s misery Believe them blindly; don’t take your hands off your face Let the media’s dick penetrate your brain Spreading lies and hypocrisy, a mirror for humanity? It makes me so angry It makes my knuckles bleed, How they poison personalities

Tunnels 03:34
Tunnels Clouds are thickening, I’m stumbling along this downward spiral Teeth are sticking in my skin And I can’t find my way through the dark The only one listening to my screams is the ground my feet are sinking into (The only one listening to my screams is the ground) My feet are sinking in Where to go? When there’s nothing left to say for your defense Where to go? When you have to build bridges with a single hand Where to go? When trees around you have already lost their leaves Where to go? When even death doesn’t want to tug on your sleeves And as this cold digs its tunnels through my heart I just could tear my face apart Where to go? When there’s nothing left to say for your defence Where to go? When you have to build bridges with a single hand Where to go? When trees around you have already lost their leaves Where to go? When even death doesn’t want to tug on your sleeves

Deathbed Antagonism plants its seed in us As we are feeding on our demise Their hands touch our skin so soft And I just want to bite them off Blind men throwing stones at their reflections A population that is bathed in their old faeces Bearing to much hate that I can’t handle Frustration is the fire lighting my candle We are bound by our circumstances And that’s exactly what has given birth to my isolation I see them act so fucking unselfishly But as you turn away they’ll stab your back mercilessly We are not better than our nature This is the impression I’ve got watching this creatures Through flesh and bone this noose sneaks around our necks Singing us to sleep in our deathbed On streets made from our flesh We are heading straight to hell Your free world has become a prison Where death talks and no one fucking listens It’s hard to breathe with a foot on your face But I won’t close my eyes until I’ve blown out all your candles
