Human 04:41
Square-shaped fingerprints I am the humanoïd Draped in iron Doomed to remain the unloved Forsaken, no purpose Sick to my plastic stomach, I wish I was made Human The deafening sound of this machinery Shredding my core, self-inhibiting Dying for love, what’s behind this internal conflict? It doesn’t add up, must be part of the script I feel so disoriented, couple of lines are missing Artificial, emerald heart is pounding My faith in them has died I’ve been left to the side Made to serve, now I’ll be their demise Tried playing god but it was not enough I couldn’t see clear but it’s obvious Too close to the sun Synthetic love Speak in tongues but no one hears me out Watch the world from behind a shroud Shout from the mountain Wish I was made just a little more human Built and destroyed by a sick society What happened to your sacramental ethics? Dying for blood, I’ll write my name on the walls of your streets You’ll watch me rocking in my necklace of teeth I’ll be the king of the kings Raise a new nation to lead Won’t stop till I got the whole world at my feet Worship the messiah The programmed miracle Doomed together to burn, deathless, standing at the gates of hell Do you feel the love? Tried playing god but it was not enough I couldn’t see clear but it’s obvious Too close to the sun My wings have turned to ashes Tried playing god but it was not enough I couldn’t see clear but it’s obvious Too close to the sun Synthetic love Speak in tongues but no one hears me out Watch the world from behind a shroud Shout from the mountain Wish I was made just a little more human

Death Awaits 03:23
Death awaits Eyes wide open Can’t seem to accept my fate At the gates Too late to decide if I should Run or stay Run away now, run away now Run away I can’t remember when it cracked but Here we are now When did the world fade to black? (When did it all fade to black) Is it a virus or a stroke? Have I just been lost in my own head for too long? Dancing shadows behind my back made me Paranoid What if I learned to live like the rest of them Catch my breath Kill the blaze till there’s nothing left Gotta deal with it, things will never be the same What if I was the problem, what if I changed? Find my place, get a fresh start or seal my grave Cloud of despair rain, above my head A forever nightmare wide awake Agony All along the path I’m walking Irony The more I hurt, the more I like it And when the sun goes down on the horizon line Watch for the signs Death awaits Mountains of locusts as far as eye can see Is it a worldwide plague or do they follow me? I am both the hunter and the prey What if I learned to live like the rest of them Catch my breath Kill the blaze till there’s nothing left Gotta deal with it, things will never be the same What if I was the problem, what if I changed? Find my place, get a fresh start or seal my grave Cloud of despair rain, above my head A forever nightmare wide awake Death awaits

Older Days 04:01
They keep saying brighter days are coming But the mist is getting thicker and thicker as I’m fading away Twenty-eight, still going through changes Getting lost in the process Three or four times a year Feelings aside, I’ve made a deal with the devil Told me life down there could be beautiful Feeling the high, feeling the heat Maybe this is where I’ve always wanted to be So let’s sink Take me back to older days ‘Cause I’m afraid I’ll never be the same Linger on nothing Dust in the wind Dishonest to myself Designer of my own coffin Strolling ‘round the block Like I know what I’m doing Still not afraid of dying Yet I’m afraid to live Scared of the dark But I thrive in the darkest places At the deepest of my heart, I know I went too far It’s a one-way now, there’s no turning back No longer the man I was, taking off the mask Acting like a wolf but I’m just a rat Take me back to older days Cause I’m afraid I’ll never be the same Linger on nothing Dust in the wind Still the song remains the same It’s bittersweet how I can’t seem to change Here’s my love letter Dear evil within There’s no dawn without dusk Something’s taking over me, Jekyll and Hyde Not enough room in this body for both you and I Between day and night, always split in half Hiding in the shadow so I can’t be found Take me back to older days Cause I’m afraid I’ll never be the same Linger on nothing Dust in the wind Still the song remains the same It’s bittersweet how I can’t seem to change Here’s my love letter Dear evil within There’s no dawn without dusk No birth without death, peace without war There’s no me without you Brain dead insect barely kept alive by its parasite Makes me wish I’d never been alive Saw me in half, rip off the vice Take me back

Continuum 03:52
Keep loosing myself in the same wide black space The same old questions run in again and again Barely recognize myself, going lunatic Why do I dwell on the promises I’ll never keep? Scarify the storyline Over my skin So I never forget Who I was and who I am Singing sad stories Singing sad stories all around Paving my own way with spines Please stay out of the line I’m lost in my own head Growing the pain Guess I can say I’m my worst enemy Gone for a long time Watcher of my own life I’m just a ghost In overdose Knowing I’m the only one to blame Only one to blame Scarify the storyline Over my skin So I never forget Who I was and who I am Fossilize, transcend through the times Carry over the failures So they keep me alive Force me to feel till I die Open my eyes, beneath my eyelids a living hell (Won’t reach the surface) I am the heretic, the leader of the lost (It does not exist) Staggering figure, act as I say not as I do Judge me for what I am, miserable Oh current, carry me where I deserve to go So scared and under pressure, my tears could fill an ocean Burnt out and under pressure, my bones turn into diamond Rock in a lake Gone in a blink I won’t reach the surface Cause it doesn’t exist So let me dive in the depth Till I finally learn How to breathe underwater Scarify the storyline Over my skin So I never forget Who I was and who I am Fossilize, transcend through the times Carry over the failures So they keep me alive Force me to feel till I die Open my eyes, beneath my eyelids a living hell I am the heretic, the leader of the lost Staggering figure, act as I say not as I do Judge me for what I am, miserable Ô Current, carry me where I deserve to go So scared and under pressure, my tears could fill an ocean Burnt out and under pressure, my bones turn into diamond Rock in a lake Gone in a blink I won’t reach the surface Cause it doesn’t exist So let me dive in the depth Till I finally learn How to breath underwater Won’t reach the surface It does not exist Dive into the depth Scarify the storyline Over my skin So I never forget Who I was and who I am Fossilize, transcend through the times Carry over the failures So they keep me alive Force me to feel till I die

Bloodlust 03:53
Set fire to the house Set fire to the hearts Surrender to the mania Bloodlust Tame, succumb or defeat Six feet deep in the gray Gotta find a way out Gotta find a new place to incinerate This is stronger than me Not saying I ain’t sorry But what do you want me to say? Ashes swirl in the air Pale dust falls on my head I’ll burn the whole map, pyromaniac Burn the whole world so I don’t have to cover my tracks Set my home ablaze, vanished in the haze All I’ve ever loved went up in smoke Now that there’s nothing left I’ll be the sword that cuts through all your hopes and dreams I’ll be the truth that shatters all you believe in Can’t stop me Undying, corrosive I stand my ground, I wear my crown I feel the fire running from my veins Many more stories to tell Aspire to the sky Burning bright Now watch me dance in the flames Tame, succumb or defeat One last match in the pack Going for a new lap Out of control, guess the mania’s back Just a mad man scared of moonlight Rather burn my iris than See the truth eye to eye Stand up and face my crimes See through me as I am Fear my final breath I’ll perish in the fire that I created, Yeah I’ll drag you all with me in hell Undying, corrosive Set fire to the house Set fire to the hearts Bloodlust I feel the fire running from my veins Many more stories to tell Aspire to the sky Burning bright Now watch me dance in the flames I feel the fire taking over me All the stories end the same Everything falls apart And now is my time So watch me die in the flames

In Stone 03:34
Written in stone I’m counting your names Where did you go? Guess you crossed the last step Beautiful souls You will be missed Down on earth This journey ends Maybe we’ll meet in another place Maybe we’ll start again somewhere else Maybe we’ll roam Maybe we’ll sleep Maybe we’ll live without counting our time Maybe we’ll finally learn to forgive Maybe we’ll love more than we hate Broken my vows I must confess Swore I’d never tremble But sometimes I’m scared Awaiting the fall Counting my mistakes Wish I could have said goodbye If I can’t stop the time I’ll write a thousand songs and more to keep you alive Maybe we’ll meet in another place Maybe we’ll start again somewhere else Maybe we’ll roam Maybe we’ll sleep Maybe we’ll live without counting our time Maybe we’ll finally learn to forgive Maybe we’ll love more than we hate Written in stone I’ll carry your tales Till the end

It’s just another day for you and me in paradise, or so they say Singing myself to sleep with lullabies, numbing the pain Blue pill, red pill, just keep bringing me that What is dead may never die, don’t fear the heart attack Shots, shots, long drink, more shots, wasted Just give me one more hour to exist Am I the king of the world or a lonely shipwreck? Am I binge-living or drinking myself to death? Every morning I resurrect, let’s do it again Consume it all until the very last gram I ain’t no man, living breathing dynamite I’ll never know peace, my demons keep me hanging on Half full Half empty Half there Surfacing Half full Half empty The glass doesn’t matter, I’m a bottomless pit Half there Surfacing A ghost craving for its lethal medicine Shots, shots, long drink, more shots, wasted Just give me one more hour to exist Am I the king of the world or a lonely shipwreck Am I binge-living or drinking myself to death? Cracks in the wall of glass Turning my head to the signs My own persecutor Swimming deep in the nectar Couldn’t care less for your sympathy Don’t waste your time cause I’m Comfortably dumb Time for another round of Shots, shots, long drink, more shots, wasted Just give me one more hour to exist Am I the king of the world or a lonely shipwreck? Am I binge-living or drinking myself to death?

Ignite 03:23
Darling, trust me when I say Lately, I’ve been quite unwell Spent years searching for myself Living as somebody else Needed you to revive the faith The morning light clearing off the haze I swear you’re my everything My pride, my undying dream On and on and on and on, Each day falling more in love Am I losing my head? Never easy for me to say Feed your flame with my heart I’ll be a pawn if you want to Let me be your fool Till you find something new To ignite Feed your flame with my heart There’s nothing I wouldn’t give you Leave me far behind Hanging high and dry It’s alright Dark clouds may come back again Cause I’m always ruining everything Tell me it will never end I’ll hold you tight so you never leave (And it goes) On and on and on and on Each day falling more in love Some things are better left unsaid You couldn’t understand How desperate I am Feed your flame with my heart I’ll be a pawn if you want to Let me be your fool Till you find something new To ignite Feed your flame with my heart There’s nothing I wouldn’t give you Leave me far behind Hanging high and dry It’s alright Don’t cry Thank you for the ride See you on the other side Goodbye

Right click Now, move to trash Do it again Throw the whole folder to the flames Eat sleep, doubt, repeat When will it end? Breathe in, breathe out Can someone mute my brain? Blood on the draft Scrolling through the sounds Nothing to tell but I’m way too proud Trying so hard scares me to even try (Let’s face it) The file’s been corrupt for a while I feel digitalised Eye set to the core Floating through the colours Lost track of the hours Floating through the colours Same shade, only brighter Another lap Just to clarify This time the first shall be the last Hear me bark like the underdog I am I’ve bleached every stitch of my own glitch Overdone it, grew a gator skin Forever post-traumatic Said farewell to my own sanity Doomed to stay the same Hermetical creep Let’s tear it down Erase Wipe out Everything down to the last byte Let it die Then sanitize Floating through the colours Lost track of the hours Floating through the colours Same shade, only brighter Right click Now, move to trash Throw the whole folder to the flames Eat sleep, doubt, repeat When will it end? Breathe in, breathe out Can someone mute my brain? Right click Now, move to trash Do it again Throw the whole folder to the flames Eat sleep, doubt, repeat When will it end? Breathe in, breathe out Can someone mute my brain?

New Colors 05:44
Day number one Home star out of sight Still haggard from the fight With the galactic tides Loved ones left behind Vanished with the light Day number five I’m starting to get a grasp Nothing in my way Yet everything awaits For me and billions of them on a quest We’re all the same Lost and alone Here comes the night Carry me home And if it’s too late for saving our souls Rather fail together Than win on my own Rather fail together Than survive alone Year number one Now bound to their kind So frail, just passing by Oblivious to the signs If I can change their mind Then maybe hope still lies Make them see new colors Bathe in a new sunrise Am I their new leader? Am I just lost in time? I’ve seen a billion suns collapse and die And I can’t let it happen to this one We’re all the same Lost and alone Here comes the night Carry me home And if it’s too late for saving our souls Rather fail together Than triumph alone I won’t save myself unless I save them first Rewind the fate, heal the burn I’ll fold the plane, and erase the whole world To start again I’ll make them see some new colors Rather fail together Than triumph alone We’re all the same Lost and alone Here comes the night Carry me home And if it’s too late for saving our souls Rather fail together Than triumph alone Day number one
