ANCHOR LYRICS

1. Upstream

[feat. Aram Arslanian]

I will never stray from my path. I'll raise my voice and speak my mind to separate the truth from lies, and not walk down the trail of decay. Face to face with my enemy. I wont back down. I'll stand my ground. I never had another road to take. I will not walk the trail of decay. I reject. I defy. I'll keep my head up high. I'll live before I die. Two words, live free.

2. Into The Storm

What if I don't want to live the life you do, and what if I don't care for all the things that I could've had? What if I don't view this world the way you do, and what if I can't give because you took everything? You say you have a cure, to fix my broken bones. 
But you were the one who crushed them. You crushed them. A burning inside. I'm twisting and turning. Face down. I never learn. Further apart, further away. Into oblivion. It´s dragging us down. Deeper and deeper.

3. Survive

The clock is ticking. I can't turn it around. What's done is done. I'll pay the price when the time comes. I've got nothing to lose. No fear, no doubts. These hungry eyes won't see another wasted day. Survive! Hanging by a thread. Fight for every breath. Hanging by a thread. No second chance. Through thick and thin. Through highs and lows. I've been coming a long way without anywhere to go. I never had a chance. I took it. I stole it with my bare hands, but I will never fall down on my knees.

4. Distance

5. Losing Faith

Far too many nights I've gone back in time. Suppressed memories living inside of me. Trapped in my mind. Falling behind. Trying to collect what's mine. The untold stories. The broken dreams. Suppressed memories living inside of me. For years I've fought through barriers of ignorance. I've gained ground but lost my faith. Not for a second can I escape. In my lifetime will I truly find peace of mind? Days slipping away. Life slipping away. Will there be answers for me? I feel my days slipping away. I beg for change. I feel my life slipping away. I beg for change. I'll stop pretending all is fine.

6. To Hell And Back

When all of the bright lights are finally fading and the world turns to black and grey. All of the sadness and the unbearable weight will turn love into stone, and get the best of me. To hell and back. I've had my dreams crushed. I've learnt the price of trust and the pain of loss. I can't stand the silence nor the sound of your voice. I need distractions, chaos and noise. All the reminders of how life used to be. It burns like a fire and gets the best of me.

7. Out Of The Storm

No comfort in this world and nowhere left to run. On the verge of losing this game and let chaos reign. You were the pulse in my heart, the blood in my veins. The one reason I'm alive, a heroine who will never die. You were the one. You carried me out of the storm. The one who pulled me up when I was down. You were the one. You carried me out of the storm. The one who held me tight through all my darkest nights. Not welcomed in this world. I lost myself. Through years of sacrifice you paved my way. You did whatever it took to keep me safe. You are my everything. A friend always by my side, and I'm always by your side. You pulled me out of the storm. You brought me home.

8. Roads Unknown

Dead end roads, I walked on my own. Searching for things not made of stone. Out of step, out of patience. I tried to make sense of a senseless existence. Defiant dream. Against the stream. I've always been so naïve. Desperate to leave. Shackled in chains, but with tricks up my sleeve. No matter what comes my way. Defiant I'll stay until my final day. Roads unknown. I'm paving my own, to be at peace when I rest my bones. Out of step. In resistance. I cherish and loathe with devotion and distance. Bridges I've burned. Bridges I've crushed. Still they've been crossed (in the end) I'm my own friend. True to myself. Still with wounds left to mend. No matter what comes my way. Defiant I'll stay until my final day.

9. Devotion

10. Hope Dies Last

[feat. Julian Laur De Manos]


Walking this earth has taught me a valuable lesson: the ones who come in peace leave dead and buried. Truth is a knife in my back, bleeding me dry. I've been close to giving in. Left with my doubts. It feels like a hammer smashing through my chest. A part of me has died. The rest barely survived. Watching this world come crashing down. Left with the ashes. Left in the dirt. War on my mind all of the time. Hope dies last. War on my mind. Running out of time. Still I stand fast. I will live as I learn. Make the tables turn.

11. Nightcaller

[feat. Rory Van Grol]


Brother, sister. I know you're hurting inside, but mark my words, I tell you now. This is our moment. Brother, sister. I swear to you. I'm reaching out for you tonight. Give me your hand. We'll make it right. Broken bones, broken hopes, is what we've been dealt. 
Broken hearts, broken dreams. Yet we push on. Brother, sister. We all carry it inside. "We'll take it back. We'll take what's ours." This is our battle cry. Brother, sister. We're always gonna be together. I'm reaching out for you tonight. Give me your hand. We'll make it right. 
Tonight is ours. Tonight's alive. We'll find reasons to live. We won't do it in vain.
Tonight is ours. Tonight's alive. We'll do whatever it takes. We'll live our lives against the grain.
