I want to live
04:49
|
|||
|
All these scars remember me of those walls closing on me,
during those endless nights that would beg me to end it all.
Pictures of the times when I used to cut my own flesh,
to cover the pain inside, to feel anything else…
I want to live… but this world doesn’t want me in it…
Don’t know how to go on without giving in to their insanity
Don’t know how to go on without becoming one of them
I feel those walls
closing on me again…
But I want to live in this world even if he doesn’t want me in it!
I want to live for everyone that is close to me!
Don’t know how to get rid of this pain inside that keeps dragging me down.
Don’t know how to escape from this cage in which I am withering.

My old friend
05:12
|

|
I hear the steps of my old friend, Winter,
I feel his cold hands on my heart, my mind…
The pain is gone, everything is crystal clear.
The burden is gone, I am floating in the wind.
The regret is gone, this silence is so freeing.
The shame is gone, my old friend is here…
I know that he can’t stay here forever,
I know that he just came to close the circle.
Like the nature I live in the hope to be reborn again
but for us humans the time is finite, we often forget…
The pain will be back, darkness will blind me.
The burden will be back, I’ll sink into the abyss.
The regret will be back, this silence will scream at me.
The shame will be back, my old friend won’t be here…

Gods are dead
05:24
|
|||
|
“How do you feel?” they pretend to care…
“Everything will be better!” as long as you obey…
Sip your coffee as you ruin lives…
Just with a stroke of a pencil…
Without a moral you judge those that look up to you!
Kissing the feet of your masters hoping they’ll notice you!
The Gods are dead and with them our humanity...
We starve while they enslave us…
We beg and worship immoral humans…
Perfected system of slavery that made even the dictators fall.
They pay you to make them rich, you pay them back to live.
They steal the best years of your life then replace you when you’re about to die…

The Absurd
05:38
|
|||
|
Wander and seek, for the meaning
become the source of what you seek
Years spent building a material grave
Years spent building a castle of cards
Wander and search the wasted years
become the epitome of futility
Embrace your meaningless existence
Realize that you’re a parasite for the universe
Realize that you’re just a rotting bag of flesh
You think that you’re special but you’re nothing more than a fertilizer…
Years spent building your ego
Years spent shitting like everybody else
Realize that you’ll expire like everybody else
Realize that nobody will care once you’re gone

Paper boat
05:35
|
|||
|
I’m setting sail
away from here
I’m setting sail
to nowhere
I’m setting sail
come and find me
The river dictates my course
The stream will carry me forth
On the horizon the sun is setting
The waves are crashing around me
The breeze caresses my skin
The forest sings a forgotten melody
I feel the water at my feet
My boat is starting to sink
Everything is falling apart
I guess my trip is ending here
I’m drowning
I got nowhere
I’m drowning
You won’t find me
On the horizon the sun is rising
The remains of the boat are floating
The forest sings a forgotten melody…

Symphony of decay
05:01
|
|||
|
Shadows dancing on the walls of the cell,
Smell of the rot permeates the air,
The buzzing of the flies echoes,
while maggots feast on the cadaver
that is falling apart…
The bed, on which he died is now his grave…
The stains of blood painted the sheets…
His instrument of death, a knife,
lays on the dust covered floor…
His smile was hiding his corpse all along…
He’s been dead since the day he was born…
No one thought that he’d run away
No one knows that he’s gone forever…

Farewell
04:24
|
|||
|
Many times, I tried to write down these thoughts.
Many times, I tried to bid farewell to these thoughts.
Fight my own mind…
Leave all behind…
Fingers running down my scars as the past flashes before my eyes
Staring into my own reflection and slowly spiraling into the abyss
What I see isn’t who I am nor what I used to be
What I remember has been eroded by the sands of time
I think it’s time to bid farewell to these strangers…
Start a new life…
Bury the past…
I bid farewell to all the ghosts and shadows of the past
I bid farewell to all the reflections and shapeless memories...
