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…

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 04:28
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?

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…

…’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 04:18
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!

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?
12.
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.
