SLEEP
03:21

Another week
No sleep
Caught between
Drowning in my dreams
And this crushing routine
All these Years
I watched the seasons fade
What difference did it make?
In my head, only winter remains
I'm trapped in my darkest days
Waiting for the sun to rise
To Light the path to my escape
Like a phoenix reborn from ice
But do I really want to fly?
Do I really want to leave behind
The only constant in my life
A heart that feels as cold as ice
One day I have to realize
The cold consumed me as a whole
It feels like cancer in my bones
And what I fear the most
That it will kill its host
Another Week
Without sleep
I'm sick of being
Caught between
Another Week
Without sleep
I'm sick of being
Caught between

DECAY
03:09
|

The blood that runs through my veins
Feels like a numbing river of pain
As if it has collected all the shame
That I've felt throughout my days
The shame for destroying myself
Whilst pretending to be someone else
I created my own living hell
Now am nothing more than a hollow shell
I am wasting away
I embrace my own decay
It is nothing more
Than a relief to me
To me
Decay
Wasting away
Decay
Wasting away
You say the goal in life is inner peace
That's the redemption I seek
A goal I will never achieve
There will be no redemption for me

WINGS
03:34
|

I'm broken, I know
Just like the streets in front of me
Through these cracks, I can see hell waiting below
The devil is baring his teeth
His breath beneath my wings
Is dragging me back to where it always begins
The same old path the same demons beside me
Take this oath: I follow blindly
Running in circles once more
So Full of anger and so full of remorse
My feet can take it no more
But I keep telling myself I haven't been here before
Keep telling myself I haven't been here before
There's no escape
From this suffering
From this suffering
When I close my eyes
I see this hideous visage
A grim smile radiating deceit
Waiting patiently
To bury its teeth
I'm broken, I know
Just like the streets in front of me
Through these cracks, I can see hell waiting below
The devil is baring his teeth
A never-ending war inside of me
Between the knowing of what I want to be
And this fuckin' pathetic belief
That hell is down beneath my feet
And not a place inside of me

MACHINE
04:42

So here I find myself
Tired to the fuckin' bone
Nightmares haunting me
Of what is yet to come
I've lost
All my trust
All my faith
All that's left is disgust
An all-consuming machine
It feasts on sorrow and despair
It will devour inner peace
A broken world beyond repair
Beyond Repair
Shattered memories
of genuine smiles
Obscure visions
of serenity and bliss
Why do these thoughts feel hostile to me
When the fuck have I become like this
Why do these thoughts feel hostile to me
When the fuck have I become like this
How can I proceed?
I'm stuck in a maze
How can I see?
I'm surrounded by haze
When I see myself
I'm repelled by my face
How can I learn?
When all wisdom's ablaze
I'm drained by excuses
For who I want to be
I'm done with abuses
Of broken ones like me
I'm lying awake every night
With terrors on my mind
Should I just end this life
Or take back what was mine?

DEFEAT
04:47
|
|||
A life in constant fear
A slow march towards the end
One thing that is certain here
We'll all break nothing left to mend
A cruel truth, a misery
Inescapable defeat
Or is it an escape, A remedy
Eventual relief
Every day it's getting harder to breathe
This world just brought me to my knees
And everything just fucking seems
As if these wounds will never heal
This pain is too fucking real
I feel empty
There's no strength left in me
I feel empty
And so terribly weak
I feel empty
There's no strength left in me
Do I have to confess my defeat
To find inner peace
I feel tired
Too much sorrow and grief
I feel tired
Of all the desires to seek
I feel tired
Too much sorrow and grief
Do I have to confess my defeat
To find inner peace
Life is nothing but the illusion of chance
A constant deception in perfect permanence
And if the outcome was never in my hands
I might at least decide how it all ends
I feel tired
Too much sorrow and grief
I feel tired
Of all the desires to seek
I feel tired
Too much sorrow and grief
Do I have to confess my defeat
To find inner peace

CHANCES
03:08
|
|||
All these demons in my head
How do I deserve terrors like this?
But deep down inside
Maybe I don't want to resist
Proven by these scars on my wrist
Life's not just ignorance and bliss
How did I end up with thoughts like this?
Just too many chances that I've missed
There's this place in my head
Without any spark of light
And instead of going ahead
I just locked myself inside
The darkness took my innocence
I'm drowning in a pile of sin
Would it make a difference
If I only ceased to swim

TIDES
03:26
|
|||
How the fuck did we get this far?
Nothing more than a decade of letdowns
Inside I am still torn apart
But these scars aren't shallow, they're profound
I'm done with expectations
These thoughts are eating me alive
What's the point of conversations
When you are fuckin' dead inside
Dead
Inside
You've built a web of your lies
You slowly corrupted my mind
For all these years, I was blind
But there's no soul behind your cold blue eyes
You've become everything I despise
A spineless fuckin' parasite
Every word I ever spoke to you
Was just pearls before swine
You fuckin' parasite
There's nothing left behind
But hate for you
Rot in hell
You fool
Rot in hell
There's no turning back to the life we once shared
I hope that your final words will never be heard
Now I wish I could watch you slowly die
knowing that you've wasted your life
and trust me I would only stand by
to sing your final lullaby

LIGHTS
03:11
|
|||
I see the years passing by
That I couldn't fill with life
I've been waiting way too long for my time to shine
I Followed the blinding lights
That led me through the darkest nights
I fell for the lie
That everything's gonna turn out fine
Which way
I can't tell the answer
The Path
Is missing on my painted canvas
This world turns black
So it does inside my head
Still, I'm following the lights
that have filled me with regret
This world turns black
So it does inside my head
Was I blinded by the light
Or am I already dead
Pitch-black
Inside my fucking head
Pitch-black
Inside my fucking head
I Followed the blinding lights
That led me through the darkest nights
I fell for the lie
That everything's gonna turn out fine

PRAYERS
04:22
|
|||
I pray for rain every fucking day
That drains this cloud above me
Will it wash away the pain?
Or will I just be swept away?
By a river of despair
Desperately gasping for air
Buried beneath the waves
Wrapped into the chains of my existence
A familiar ice-cold embrace
The surface in unreachable distance
A certain death I have to face
There's no need for any further resistance
I'm sinking like a stone
Like a fuckin' stone
The pressure slowly crushes every bone
As my body sinks to the ground
This world proceeds to spin
Consuming every single one
That isn't built to swim
