APPEARANCE OF NOTHING LYRICS

1. The Mirror’s Eyes

I knew this day would come sometime
It's the moment to clip the cord
The ship leaves the homeport!
The first time we stand on our own feet
We have to prove that we are right
The right is might and the rules are tight

No said it would be easy
No one said it would be that hard
We are eager to please and do it right
It's our fight

No said it would be easy
No one said it would be that hard
We are eager to please and do it right
It's our fight

All ideas are trapped to ice
Follow the government's good advice
Every decision is like
We rub salt in the wound

Shall we trust in good like they tell us?
We have to play the scene
We're in a circus
We should guard our attitude like gold

The rules are given
The bets are made
The rules are given
Yes the bets are made

I cross my heart and I hope to die
I act with no intent, I never lie
How could it happen?
I'm chained in a system.

I cross my heart and I hope to die
I act with no intent, I never lie
I'm chained in a system.

Sometimes I don't know what's going on
It's like running out of time
And I don't know what's going on
That's not what I want
That's not what I want

Maybe I expect too much from me?
Maybe I misunderstood my destiny?
Maybe I am weak
And should stop for a while
Slow down and consider
Maybe close that file?
Maybe I expect too much from me?
Maybe I misunderstood my destiny?

Is it the line of the least resistance?
Is it the line required by law?
Is it my free will and is it my wish?
Or is it the society's rules I saw?

TV publicity describes my dream
Arouses my longing daily on screen
Of course I'm happy when I get that toy
Or have I been navigated like a boy?

2. 2nd God

I guess you know that feeling when you're under pressure
I guess you know how it feels if you're forced to do something
But in our minds we share the same horizon
Now we shall turn
The page of the book
Called life

Oh all works so well
Luck is on my side
Why should I change?
And I know it's hard to understand
How I live my life
But I'm quite alright
I guess… I think

Wake up we're breaking the silence
There is no turning back
Wake up we're breaking the silence
Can you hear the Raven's calling?
It's one step to go

In our ears it sounds
Like military orders
We see no use at all
It sounds like madness
For our lives, for gold
For a friendly second god
We run, we bleed
We burn our hands for you

Oh all works so well
Luck is on my side
Why should I change?

It tears me in two
And I won't wake up
From that dream
Shut the fuck up!
I am not like you want me to be!

No!

Leave me alone
No
I am someone
Don't care about me,
I am fine and that's OK
No look for another
No I'm not your brother
Don't care about me
I am fine and that's OK

3. Sweet Enemy

Lying in this room
With my sweet enemy
All my colors fade to grey
And now I know…

I won't survive
The beast that lives inside
I will never survive
Slowly loosing this awful fight

I've walked along this road so many years
Dark power will reveal
And I know there will be many tears
Red blood changing in to white liquid fluid
Everything seems so unreal
Let this ride begin

I won't survive
The beast that lives inside
I will never survive
Slowly loosing this awful fight

So fight!

So mean,
Trapped and chained
Cannot describe
This is hell inside
Spill blood, eternal war
I'm much stronger
You can't close that door

Now you realize
You can't catch up to me
Whining, struggling,
Nothing can take you away

Fight!

The control is mine
Fight!
My appearance will shine
Nothing!
Will remain the same
Wasted time it's such a shame

I divided myself into two
Poisoned myself with despair
Now that I see, is it too late
Can I catch up with him or is it too late?

Is someone there who'll help me to crawl?
From my regret, where I fall?
I feel like I'm left alone
Sometimes I feel like I'm not in control
High on this does, can't fill my hole
And I'm wondering

Hatred and pain now flow through my veins
You will not survive
You'll never survive!

I won't survive
The beast that lives inside
I will never survive
Slowly loosing this awful fight

Once we shared
The same dark life
Now it seems
We're parted by knife

Can't you see?
I'm suffering

4. Destination

We believe in things we hear and see
We take care of things that we can call our own
Yes we believe
We choose our steps so carefully
Yes we take care
Of all the moments we share

We hold our head above the water
We're fighting on
Burning flames and raging waters
Step by step we will not fail

We hold our head above the water
We're fighting on
Burning flames and raging waters
Step by step we will not fail

And it's the vision of the nightmare I'm in

I am lost without a trace
I am lost without embrace
When I cry I fall asleep
A simple plan when I feel weak
Like a ship in the storm
It's like a pinball in my head
But I will never, I will never
Never leave my track

I hold my head up high
I follow my destiny
Go your way and I go mine
On this boulevard

I don't spend a dime
On TV Preachers and books
I follow my way and there is no turning back

Many oceans I have crossed
I survived them all
I've built a bridge
So many nights I stood alone in fears
I survived them all

I survive the nightmare I'm in

Driver by my force inside I can't give up the fight
Focused on the target and there is no time to stay

And I tell you there's a nightmare
But the dreams remain the same

Your destination

I am lost without a trace
I am lost without embrace
When I cry I fall asleep
A simple plan when I feel weak
Like a ship in the storm
It's like a pinball in my head
But I will never, I will never
Never leave my track

And there is silence you're crawling to me
And you know you should be here with me
You should better leave
Do you know the truth of the silence?
It's the moment to come to terms with yourself
It's the moment you beg and you're bleeding for love
So sad you can trust yourself if you're honest to you
But you must walk alone

Go step by step
Walk on
Survive your nightmare
Walk on through the ashes
Finish what you have begun
Don't look back and go on my son

Never failing and fly your flag
Just strike back, never leave your tag

Go out; walk on the razor's edge
Come in into a saver place
Go out; walk on the razor's edge
Even if it's the back of beyond

5. The Call of Eve

I am her son
A planted seed on stormy fields
I hope she smoothes my way
Puts away all the stones

Mother father brother, sister, anyone
Brother sister
Help me out if you can
Help me out here
Take away the pain
Trying not to lose my gain

And here comes the night again
When we all start to dream
Everything's all right and then
It is not as it seems
And we hope she won't die
When we look in her open eyes
And we hope she won't die
At least you have to take away her pain

Too many times I act desperately
But they've been there for me
So many times when I was right
Or even if I was wrong

Mother father brother,
Sister, anyone
Brother sister
Help me up if you can
Help me out here
Take away the pain
Trying not to lose my gain

And here comes the night again
When we all start to dream
Everything's all right and then
It is not as it seems
And we hope she won't die
When we look in her open eyes
And we hope she won't die
At least you have to take away her pain

And here comes the night again
When we all start to dream
Everything's all right and then
It is not as it seems
And we hope she won't die
When we look in her open eyes
And we hope she won't die
At least you have to take away her pain

6. ...I said Silence

Silence, I said silence
Can't you shut your mouth?
It's every day
And still the same
I know it's time I waste!

Make me feel like a stranger
In my own house
But now you went too far
If you don't stop making noise
I'm sure we'll have a war!

Fine!

You think
You're good enough, I am!
Disturb me all the time
What's wrong with you?
I know you love to make trouble
Maybe you fuck my wife

Cool, I think you know!
But tell me do you have some kind of strategy against your enemies?
What's your strategy against your enemies?

Hey you! Let me say
You'll see one day
I am sure I'll kick your ass
Hey you! Let me say
You'll see one day
I will meet you again

Sometimes we sing
Nightmares they bring
We must live together
Sometimes we sing
But nobody is here
Neighbours and teachers

Sergeants and preachers
We must live together
Sometimes
They sing but nobody is here
Wait until the moment comes

We are here, you are near
Now it's payback!
Welcome back we meet again,
Like I said you're a loser
Your nightmare is here!

Silence I said silence

What do you want from me?
Don't bother me
You're bugging me
You're the troublemaker here

I am sure you're not evil minded
But I don't give a damn
If you're going on like this
You will end as spam

All the things you did
It burns like a fire inside
My revenge is sweet

But is this really me?
I've sent you to hell so many times, this is the time
This is the time to forgive

No!

Hey you! Let me say
You'll see one day
I am sure I'll kick your ass
Hey you! Let me say
You'll see one day
I will meet you again

Sometimes we sing
Nightmares they bring
We must live together
Sometimes we sing
But nobody is here

Neighbours and teachers
Sergeants and preachers
We must live together
Sometimes they sing
But nobody is here
Wait until the moment comes

We are here, you are near
Now it's payback!
Welcome back
We meet again, like I said
You're a loser
Your nightmare is here!
