1. Take This Life
We like so much the pain
It's more the actual knife
Pretend that the picture is perfect
I cut myself to sleep
I close my eyes for a second
And meet the fragile soul
I scream to hide that I'm lonely
The echo calls my name
Uh, if I ever, if I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make me see, make me be
Make me understand you’re there for me
Take this life - I'm right here
Stay awhile and breathe me in
Take this life - I'm right here
Stay awhile and breathe me in
The water drops just beg to hit me
Why now? Haven't rained for days
No time to play hide-and-seek
I call upon you to take me on
Break me down to pieces
Put me back, do it right this time
Struggling to fill this empty shell
Burn my efforts, in the end it means nothing
If I ever, if I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make me see. Make me be
Make me understand you're there for me
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay awhile and breathe me in
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay awhile and breathe me in
These thoughts burn a hole in my heart
These thoughts will keep me feeling
These thoughts burn a hole in my heart
These thoughts will keep me feeling
If I ever, if I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make me see. Make me be
Make me understand you're there for me
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay awhile and breathe me in
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay awhile and breathe me in
2. Leeches
Leeches, like leeches
"In ignorance we trust"
If you say this way, I will take that way
Fuel for that fire which I thrive
Spit me out
I'm glad I don't belong
Save me the speech
You'll be forgotten and gone
It burns, it rips, it hurts
Leeches, they preach to us
Words of wisdom from blocked minds
Spit me out
I'm glad I don't belong
Save me the speech
You'll be forgotten and gone
It burns, it rips, it hurts
They make you believe your turn
The chance of a lifetime,
How does it feel to be alive?
[Solo]
A tear for the poet that can't be heard
Praise the artist that steals
Spit me out
I'm glad I don't belong
Save me the speech
You'll be forgotten and gone
It burns, it rips, it hurts
They make you believe your turn (it rips, it hurts)
The chance of a lifetime
How does it feel to be alive?
3. Reflect The Storm
Shot for shot
Let the bullets penetrate me
Embrace me
Tell me stories of golden gods
The precision in your voice
Pierce the walls that I've built
Your eyes reach deep in me
(Take a chance, take a chance, take a chance...)
They don't come much bigger than this
A dark star spend another day with me
A dead surface that doesn't reflect
The storm underneath
Take the chance
Bring me the calm
...And it leaves nothing
Expose the dark side,
Aching and emotional,
Expose the dark side,
Impossible to tame
Away from the light of the sun
Away I find what is really me
Throw yourself into the eye of chaos
Infiltrate me,
Sneak out before I awake
Take out the trash and burn it
Try to find a beautiful place to lay
These fragile bones of mine
Away from the light of the sun
Away I find what is really...
Away from the light of the sun
Away I find what is really me
... And it leaves nothing
Expose the dark side, aching and emotional
Expose the dark side, impossible to tame
Away from the light of the sun
Away I find what is really...
Away from the light of the sun
Away I find what is really...
Away from the light of the sun
Away I find what is really me
4. Dead End
[feat. Lisa Miskovsky]
Save all your prayers
I think we lost today
There's no morning after
No one's around to blame
I'm not afraid to bleed
But I won't do it for you
A star among hypocrites
The melody of our time
So say goodbye to the world
We are the dead, can't walk the earth
Scream your lungs out
Await for laughter
You don't have to wait forever
It's the next disaster!
What decides when you've lost the war
When the first man falls
Or when they erase it all?
We're too numb to feel
The downfall starts right here
Hold your breath and swim
Swallowed by life's tear
In times of make believe
No one really seems to care
Maybe I should care less
'Cause I will die too
So say goodbye to the world
We are the dead, can't walk the earth
Scream your lungs out
Await for laughter
You don't have to wait forever
It's the next disaster!
What will it take for us to realize?
The more we provoke
Winter will come twice
[Solo]
Save all your prayers
I think we lost today
There's no morning after
No one's around to blame
Scream you lungs out
Await for laughter
You don't have to wait for ever
Here's the next disaster!
Scream you lungs out
Await for laughter
You don't have to wait for ever
Here's the next disaster!
5. Scream
We are ordinary people,
We all live different lives
In the end we're pretty much the same
We're just living in different lies
We just live in different lies
We just live in different lies
They scream, you scream, I scream
We scream but no one listens
Abuse to feel superior,
Is it working for you?
They scream, you scream, I scream
We scream
Abuse to feel superior,
Is it working for you?
We are ordinary people,
In a world build on stress
When we build walls around us
We end up in a mess
We end up in a mess
We just end up in a mess
They scream, you scream, I scream
We scream but no one listens
Abuse to feel superior,
Is it working for you?
We just live in different lies
We just live in different lies
They scream, you scream, I scream
We scream but no one listens
Abuse to feel superior,
Is it working for you?
6. Come Clarity
Rushing through thirty
Getting older every day by two
Drawing pictures of innocent times
Can you add color inside these lines?
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
Sure, if we change my perspective
I'm certain, I would change today
I am certain it would change our ways
Would things fall into place?
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
[Solo]
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
I want you to lead me
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
Take me somewhere
Don't want to live
In a dream one more day
7. Vacuum
The yesterday we loved, speak of tomorrow.
The burden of man is that time never takes a pause.
We live from Monday to Sunday, but we forget what it means.
Then a ghost comes to visit and we tell stories from tabloids.
Call all your friends,
Watch fake photos
From a made up vacation.
Speaking in tongues about ancient artifacts.
We steal from beggars
And ask for understanding
We lie, rape, steal and murder
To make tonight's headlines
Trust the system,
Make your contribution,
Smile, applaud, love, hail.
The weaker you get, the stronger they become.
Listen in silence,
Hear her voice.
How far are we ready to take this?
Listen in silence,
Hear her voice.
Before it all crumbles.
Lie, rape, steal and murder,
Smile, applaud, love, hail.
Gather in front of the TV.
Exploding sympathy.
The weatherman,
Our trust, our punctual company.
We steal from beggars
And ask for understanding,
We lie, rape, steal and murder
To make tonight's headlines
Trust the system,
Make your contribution,
Smile, applaud, love, hail.
The weaker you get, the stronger they become.
Listen in silence,
Hear her voice.
How far are we ready to take this?
Listen in silence,
Hear her voice.
Before it all crumbles.
Lie, rape, steal and murder,
Smile, applaud, love, hail.
Listen in silence,
Hear her voice.
How far are we ready to take this?
Listen in silence,
Hear her voice.
Before it all crumbles.
8. Pacing Deaths Trail
Compassion, confession.
It's all a compromise.
Dedication, domination.
Please, define the lines.
Irritation, innovation.
Paired-up to succeed.
Toleration, termination.
Fake smiles and greed.
Surrender to nothing.
Or run as far as you can
I'm trying to hold on to what I believe in,
But my heart is in a coma
Aggression, attention.
A need to be seen.
Directed, disrespected.
Stand in a line to be thankful obscene
Surrender to nothing.
Or run as far as you can
I'm trying to hold on to what I believe in,
But my heart is in a coma
[Solo]
Surrender to nothing.
Or run as far as you can
I'm trying to hold on to what I believe in,
But my heart is in a coma
I'm trying to hold on to what I believe in,
But my heart is in a coma
9. Crawl Through Knives
The dark black hole forever mine.
I need the fear, push me out
Uh, be brave, show me signs
Should I feel shame for the questions that I have?
If you could be the things I need.
(I'll crawl through knives an inch per tear)
These knees, they bleed for you.
(Let the colour persuade the hate that you fear)
Feed the lie.
Force the reason.
Leave me in doubt.
Need some motivation
It's in my hands.
The sky, so bright it's burning.
It's for me to decide.
If flames will reach heaven tonight.
It's in my hands.
Nailed to the floor
Paralyzed
Emotions drifting
Touching the new
If you could be the things I need.
(I'll crawl through knives an inch per tear)
These knees, they bleed for you.
(Let the colour persuade the hate that you fear)
It's in my hands.
The sky, so bright it's burning.
It's for me to decide.
If flames will reach heaven tonight.
It's in my hands.
The sky, so bright it's burning.
It's for me to decide.
If flames will reach heaven tonight.
[Solo]
It's in my hands.
The sky, so bright it's burning.
It's for me to decide.
If flames will reach heaven tonight.
It's in my hands.
The sky, so bright it's burning.
It's for me to decide.
If flames will reach heaven tonight.
10. Versus Terminus
When all is said and done
We'll know what's right, what's wrong
But does it matter then
When all is said and done?
When all is dead and gone
We'll know who lost, who won
But does it matter then
When all is dead and gone?
See everything go
End of all things
The life that we know
Shift your point of view
You've been warned
This one-way ticket is for you
When all the lights go out
We’ll know what life's about
But does it matter then
When all the lights go out?
When all the laughter dies
We'll see nothingness and realize
But does it matter then
When all the laughter dies?
See everything go
End of all things
The life that we know
Shift your point of view
You've been warned
This one-way ticket is for you
When all the laughter dies
We'll see nothingness and realize
But does it matter then
When all the laughter dies?
See everything go
End of all things
The life that we know
Shift your point of view
You've been warned
This one-way ticket is for you
11. Our Infinite Struggle
In a disaster story
A central conflict of primal rage
Usual sort of desperation
Characters remain the same
Never cut you out,
I cut you in!
Feeding on life leftovers
I am writing to you
You should realize
It hurts in me too
Walk on broken glass
Is the pain the same at the end?
All the elements in life's complexity
Make our struggle infinite
Never cut you out,
I cut you in!
Feeding on life leftovers
I am writing to you
You should realize
It hurts in me too
[Solo]
All the elements in life's complexity
Make our struggle infinite
Never cut you out,
I cut you in!
Feeding on life leftovers
I am writing to you
You should realize
It hurts in me too (to cut you in)
Feeding on life leftovers
I am writing to you
You should realize
It hurts as I cut you in
12. Vanishing Light
A vanishing light
The end of a compromise
In fury, in rage
A dream will diminish
Behind enemy lines
Learn to survive
Find way to clone
Make friends and a place to call home
Take a picture and jump before we crash
Take a picture and jump before we crash
Slide away
Learn your ways and fire when ready
This is a race to no mans land,
But who knows the direction?
You're on the easy route
Money up front
There's no doubt
Take a picture and jump before we crash
Take a picture and jump before we crash
Slide away
Learn your ways and fire when ready
This is a race to no mans land,
But who knows the direction?
It's so, so sad
But pay no mind
Take a picture and jump before we crash
Take a picture and jump before we crash
Slide away
Learn your ways and fire when ready
This is a race to no mans land,
But who knows the direction?
13. Your Bedtime Story Is Scaring Everyone
Find time and play with innocence
Like you ever would
I don't see you make any sense
I guess you deliver misery just like you should
Uh, 9 o'clock and you paint the skies grey
It's not your fault, we're the ones who betray
But how can you say it with such ease?
You take a stand or just wanna please?
Your bedtime story is scaring everyone
But you make me understand the evil that men do
The evil that men do…
