Tišina je oterala san, izgubio sam još jedan dan, Izgubio sam jedan deo sebe i osećaj za vreme. Štitim se tamom od jesenje kiše, puteva kojih nema više, Izbledelih slika sreće i ljudi koji su bili smeće. Niz prozore suze liju, kao droga za moju melanholiju. Anhedonija kao staratelj, izolacija kao prijatelj. Tišina oko mene se steže, dok u meni misli reže. I ove noći će san morati da sačeka novi dan. Štetim samog sebe bez ikakve potrebe, I dalje se nadam a svestan sam da padam. Ne mogu u san da zaplovim i sve da zaboravim... Agonija i zvuk tišine dok tonem u poznate dubine... English translation: Silence drove away the sleep, I've lost another day, I've lost a part of myself and the sense of time. I shield myself with the darkness from the autumn rain, the paths that are gone, faded images of happiness and people who were garbage. Tears stream down the windows, like drugs for my melancholy. Anhedonia as a parent, isolation as a friend. The silence around me tightens while thoughts growl inside me. Even tonight the dream will have to wait for a new day. I'm hurting myself unnecessarily, I still hope although I am aware that I am falling. I can't sail in my sleep and forget everything... The agony and the sound of silence as I sink into familiar depths...

Change 03:56
Can't get up this morning and face the day Haven't been able to erase the dismay All dreams have left this dark room Numb senses, never ending gloom Grueling thoughts overwhelming my mind Everything seems pointless and declined Can't feel the sunshine on my skin Happiness has died from within Am I ever going to be able to change? None of the thoughts make sense Grisly visions manifest as I derange Enemy of myself without defense...

Escape, I’ve tried… Void, as if I died… Entertained by all this futility, Regretting my choices daily, Leaning towards negativity. As if my mind has surrendered, Simply shut down and sundered. Thoughts crave for salvation, Immoral ticket, one way destination, Nor north nor south, I lack imagination… Gradually decaying, years are wasted, Confusing memories can’t even be trusted… Open these gates and behold! Lonely madman is done and old, Drained of life by this everlasting cold…

Shadows dancing before my eyes... Noises echoing in the silence... I can't escape, I can't fight, not tonight, I just can't find a way to expel them from my mind. This feeling of helplessness holds me tight, I am going insane because it's all in my mind. Feeling a touch but no one's there Sweat and chills going down my spine Heartbeat rises, my heart is in my throat... I can't escape, I can't fight, not tonight, I just can't find a way to expel them from my mind. This feeling of helplessness holds me tight, I am going insane because it's all in my mind. My shaking hand in panic turns on the light and everything is banished back into my mind...

Nothingness 07:12
Sometimes I think that this world has lost touch with reality everyone is hiding behind their self-righteousness Sheep disguised as rabid wolves on the hunt for approbation Hoping to win a medal as the dictators of the year They've killed their own gods to replace them Hoping that other sheep would worship them meanwhile the time slowly slips away, years pass and eventually we will expire... I just sit and gaze into nothingness hoping that it swallows me Hoping that it erases me as if I never existed in this world Spare everyone dear to me from the pain that I would end up causing them I have lost my faith in humanity, they are the cancer of this world Every day a new hope dies buried under futile lies They are draining our lives like leeches They are drowning our dreams we've allowed it...

Misanthrope 03:31
Masses armed with stupidity and self-righteousness aim to impose their ideals, indoctrinate the gullible with victimhood, hoping to give their life a meaning. Sickening whining of spoiled brats seeking attention. An ongoing preaching of what's wrong and what's right. New generation of humankind begging to be wiped. Thousands years of evolution sinking down the drain. How can I stay surrounded by this madness? Resist the urge to purge, as they are multiplying? One by one nerves are breaking as guitar strings. Pathetic is the society that we live in. Eventually the world itself will get rid of this disease called humankind.

Rise 05:26
I've never found myself despite all these fucking years. As days go by I find my self further and further from the meaning. Like a useless slave I'm always running from one master to another. Every single one of them abused me and treated me like a piece of shit... ...now the time has come for me to break these chains... I will no longer live like an animal, I will be the master of my life. I will no longer fall for their false smiles, I will be the one that's laughing. I will no longer be at anyone's mercy, I will be the one they'll beg. Like a Phoenix I will rise and my flames will burn bright. Only then everything will be clear and I'll find my meaning...

about

After losing several tracks that I made over the past 2 years, I finally managed to pull together enough songs to publish something. I've spent last few years being mostly away from the country I live in because of my (now) old job and that definitely contributed to a change to my life and to some extent my music as well.

Hope you enjoy it, specially the second part of the album!
