That street
03:46
|
|||
The crown has fallen to the ground
a reality check if ever there was one
I feel the numbness in my left hand
the crown has fallen to the ground
the asphalt pressing against my cheek
a guy shouted my name and I got kicked
laying on the road outside the wrong bar
everyone here is looking for war
I promise you I'll walk that street
Even if I sweat cold and my legs feel weak
A run-down town, a worn out street
this part of hell belongs to me
but now
you'd better run
cause they're after you
you were too easy to find
Are you as naive as you sound?
You have noone left to trust

Tear down those pillars
05:52
|

It's time to evaluate
and to rewrite
all of these twisted lines
but where to start
this overwhelming task
a sea of doubts
they've built thick walls
inside my head
So why does it hurt when I'm seeking truth
and from down here I see
a part of me is real
hold on to that
as I proceed to cut
rewire my brain
regain my intellect
remove the rust
they've built thick walls
inside my head
So why does it hurt when I'm seeking truth
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I'm seeking
and destroying
And once I started the hunt
knew there was no way around
it was a killing spree
just death before me
for every prayer I've learned
for every lie I've been told
for every day of remorse
I'll put an end to it all
Tear down those pillars!
Tear down those pillars!
Tear it all down
The lord will be with us
as we count the coins
as we compare our clothes
as we throw stones
and as I planted the seed
the mortar started to crack
how many doubts inside me?
this temple will be debri
Tear down those pillars!
Tear down those pillars!
Tear it all down
a million words of guilt
the right amount of lies
an uncalibrated scale
a flag eaten by flies
so dig a hole in the ground
and make it deep enough
and put your fears inside
and place a stone on top

The cracks within
02:39
|
|||
The dream is clear
the path is long
is time to judge
the faults I own
I've been down there
I've seen the cracks
in the foundations
of my mind
Noone to blame
to share this shame
I was wolf and lamb
as anybody else
I felt the urge
to betray it all
to be the worst version
I can hold
Let it bleed
and let it heal
mark the place
and run away from here
build it humbold
build it slow
but build a man
you can be proud of

No anchors
02:54
|

Unknown
reference
points
again, once again
who's that guy?
may I join?
Is there anyone who knows?
...anyone who knows me
no need to explain
All anchors are gone
once again
memories
stripped
(of) significance
again, once again
I'll rebuild from what is left
But beware cause when the pieces start to fall into place
the ground will shake
and it won't
longer be there
Your feet will be in the air
Unknown
reference
points
memories
stripped
(of) significance
Again, again, again, again,again...

Hidden words

hidden words
outraced
let it on
mind brace
bad truth
sunday
darkness
cold air
last song
then you'll fall
let the wheel
run over wheel
and so you..
went in
with high waves
then disappeared
without a trace
calm down
let it drone
last breath
I want
Hey dad
where you've been?
I don't know
but it's been my sin
she was here
wondering
what's this misery
we're harvesting
and you...
pulled it off
let it burn
as if it was Rome
Rip it off
with your hands
all this happiness
is ignorance
Hey you
young ones
you'll be alone
when the sun is gone
sand graves
counting days
counting days to roam

Of lost fights
04:33
|
|||
we're so afraid to own our lives
but we reclaim that kind of heights
are you seating alone cause you want?
I'd rather die than sing along to your song
this emptiness, so vast and cold
this equilibrium, so frail and false
most of the mouths repeat the words
I'd rather die than sing your song
derailing
growing through constant failing
at least this path is my making
so here you find me exhausted and wrecked
one more time
I lost my fight
another night
to lay awake
there's so much to learn
of each defeat
of pain and grief
of all the goals so hard to achieve
so what are you aiming for?
what if all these images were placed there just to trick you?
derailing
growing through constant failing
at least this path is my making
is that your excuse?
you fell before
you hurt yourself
you tasted blood
and became scared
what are you bringing home?
conformity?
their book of rules?
a hook with bait?
the rotten truth?
have so much to learn
to cut the ropes
to shelter hope
and the anger to defen it
cause this road
will keep you away
cause this choice
will make you strange
nowhere to call home
derailing
growing through constant failing
at least this path is my making

Nothing left to say
02:17
|
|||
the more I fight my way up
in search for higher grounds
to more I feel the darkness
consuming all around
oh boy!
don't lose your focus now
don't let despair overcome
shut all those voices up
shut all of them up
cause they are contagious
enemies of thoughts
the nail in the coffin
the hanging rope
effort is unworthy
the big tide is on its way
don't try to convince them
there's nothing left to say
shut all of them up
there's nothing left to say
