An Exposition

We will rise to our fears
when we stand tall against them all
We are broken in our virtues
In a world divided into hope and loss
there stood a man craving unity and freedom
Blinded by his own dreams
he would never know what the real world felt like
his story is told in the Days of Futures Past
I’d like to change everything that is this earth
Derange all former laws and restrictions
Refrain from personal addictions
That Feeling of Guilt everyone bears…

That Feeling of Guilt
04:27
|
|||
Stand inside an isolated temple of silence
Try to eagerly defend the voices of malady
Come on!
Shoot them down!
Hypocrites! They show us how to behave
Clear the mess! Who said that this is war?
Hypocrites! Have the rights that we crave
Happiness! For the guilty ones!
Battles raging bullets crashing in a solemn heartbeat
Now you’re going crazy from the voices of malady
Come on!
The emptiness inside your head!

Traitor
04:10
|

The day I saw you
I thought I knew you
But then I knew that
It had all been wrong
It was when you told me
It’s already too late
The shadow on your path is proof
For all of those strange things you do
First I thought we knew each other
But now I guess not
You’re a traitor, traitor
As you killed us
With a knife in your hand
Explosions behind your back
Gonna kill us all
You quickly showed me
That I can’t trust you
It was then I knew that
It had all been wrong
Not seeing the dark side of your personality
I trusted you but then you betrayed me
You said “I’ll be back“ and never returned
Gonna kill us all

The Dawn

Hey Eve, listen up
Can you read the constellations, overwhelmed…
It comes to be like destiny
So take your chance if you want
Can’t you ever tell me something
I don’t already know
So can’t you ever show me something
That I would like to know
When the sun goes down
And your worries are washed away
You try to hide
But there’s nowhere left to stay
And the stars they tell us why
Oh they tell us why
If we ponder beneath the sky
We’ll have a reason to fix
The broken pieces in our hearts
Hey Eve, what’s the hurt?
Follow your instincts and never fail
So what your sentiments mean to express
Is it fear, is it doubt?
Could you please lighten up?

The Broken Link
02:19
|
|||
Drifting into self-hatred, the protagonist sought vengeance for his suffering.
“The broken link between death and rebirth could never be repaired“, he thought,
seeking his oldest enemy’s trust.
Their meeting was not peaceful though, as all rage was unleashed.
I won’t stand here and wait all by myself
You can’t heal the wounds that you created
Justify all the things that you did
I don’t care what you say…

Myself for a While
03:24
|

…’Cause we’re done by now!
All these years I watched you
push me to the ground
Drown the happiness inside
I started to hide
All these things I wanted to do
I guess you had no clue
That you ruined it all for me
I look back and say…
I won’t stand here and wait all by myself
You can’t heal the wounds that you created
Justify all the things that you did
I don’t care what you say
‚Cause we’re done by now!
You’ll never get what you want
Right from the start
It was all the trail to hell
No more hope, no more friends
I guess this is how it ends
and you ruined it all for me
You’re gonna kill me
But not today

Freefall
03:55
|
|||
Take your chance once in a while
Make that throw or miss by a mile
You should never be afraid to stumble and fall
Or you’ll never really live at all
The time for fear is long gone
You can’t free fall and feel wrong
So take this advice and listen to me
Step up to your dreams yes baby
Never let things be
If yesterday’s history
And today’s a mystery
Freefall with your dreams
‘Cause nothing’s ever what it seems

Censorshit

I think you’ve had your say
In this debate
So shut your mouth your issues
They can wait
Let’s focus on the threshold
They have built
The flower of hope
Slowly beginning to wilt
We can’t go on watching them decide
Our visions dying swallowing our pride
Censor, censor!
Our words deminished by their force
Laughter, laughter!
But we choose to ignore
Censor, censor!
We are gutted to the core
But we won’t back down
We won’t back down
Still no-one gives a shit
‘Bout you and me
I don’t know if you’ve heard
‘Bout individuality?
They still divide the masses
For control
I don’t know if we’re ever gonna get
out of this hole
You’re trying to crush anything or anyone
But we’re not scared of you filthy bastard son
Get on your knees
We will sing, we will sing!
If we let them decide on our souls
There will be no-one left for freedom
With menacing monster pushing the controls
There’ll be no space left for freedom
Will we find a home?
It’s out of control

Rise
02:56
|

This is an address to all nations. All people united as we stand tall. Corporations have taken control of our system we call democracy. This is a call to rise up and overcome grave fears. This is a notification that we have survived the coma, and we will rise!

Comatose/Overdose

Could you realize?
They desynchronize
Our perception with reality
Have you ever wondered
How this life was meant to be?
Huddled in this dark room
They tell us we are free
Equality is but a word
To characterize our fears
But little do we know the
false construction which appears
So will you stand
with your back against the wall?
Could you realize? (The lies they tell you, lies they tell)
They desynchronize (Our perception with reality)
They will push you forward
Just to see how far you’ll fall
A never-ending story
‚Cause there’s no chance at all
They will never fall back
Change your stance and disrupt this madness
Breaching the core of our collective sadness
Change your stance and disrupt this madness
YOU CANNOT KILL WHAT YOU DID NOT CREATE!
YOU CANNOT CHANGE WHAT YOU DID NOT CREATE!
Everything, everything, everything I thought was wrong.

I’ve been waiting for the end
Of my thoughts trailing in the abyss
Cradling my fears and tears
In broken arms that fall apart
Falling down into the deep
I won’t come back
The downward spiral’s pulled me in
Dying under heaven’s grin
Break my bones with sticks and stones
I’ll be the one to crush their thrones
We can’t go back
We’ll stay vicious
We won’t take this
We’ll stay vicious
Why won’t we testify?
Were our actions meant to last?
We won’t be satisfied
Life’s infinite in all
The Days of Futures Past!
As you stand at the edge of your thoughts
Do you still believe?

Fading
02:22
|

Maybe it is all just a dream. Everything I had created, been or wanted to be. But as I lay here and try to be myself I dunno which person I want to be. Maybe the future will bring me more clarification. No-one will know…but I hope to do so soon.
