Already Dead 03:40
Just heard about your old fashioned vision of advancement It’s really sad but you are dead wrong again I shudder to think just how mad your kids are gonna be When they’ll figure out their future isn’t in their hands Think back at our place what would you say if we take out your right to say Talk to me about living young through progress I don’t give a shit at all Our youth is already dead Beg the kids to be optimistic at your views They won’t slip down in your cobweb We are down, but not about to break We’re not about to change Hope someday you’ll come to need me More than you ever needed me before Then realize that in the time when you could have let the youth express itself You’ve tripped over your pride No matter if you say you’re not the one to blame If the world is about to break you are the only one to blame

Sleep, Sleep 03:40
Dream up, tons of pictures all night long Fade out, like shadows on my wall It's been a day and a night that I cannot fall asleep I’ve got something on my mind That keeps me wide awake and torn down Late night, night falls. A sunbeam breaks up through my wall Finally got through a deep sleep But it didn’t last a minute Late night, night falls. Torments haunt me until the dawn Feels like I’ve lost myself up in this mess And finally comes the daybreak I feel exhausted I just want to sleep All in a moment of terror I see the time pass in front of me And then I stare at the ceiling So afraid of facing up a sunbeam So afraid of facing up the day Feels like I’ve barely lost touch with everything… When the sun went down, I did not know what to do And it rolls on, rolling in my bed I try to find to find a posture And the night goes on; still don 't know what to do Embrace the posture before facing up the daylight And the night goes on; still don’t know what to do I guess I’ll have to fight insomnia all night, forever

He started late and blind to sail close to the wind Now he tries to stem the tide raging through his sins In other words not to get it wrong He's kind of a pleasant bar fly surrounded by tons of broken dreams Every night he stands still three sheets at the wind He braves new world and loses is face but takes a stand no matter what’s in his way Four squares behind, I stand for you for better or for worse Bitter friend, bitter friend Never gets out of his wasteland He truly stands truly stands Never break up through his trend Most of people fake to suffer all the time My friend faces his faith with his reckless style without fear Without any hesitation he will keep moving on even through these troubled times And when he gets angry the worst can happen Instinct and music as a violent blend He means his words, holds onto his message: “Stay yourself; hold on to your dreams” Carry in; carry on to what you stand for Never break; never crawl no matter what happens” True friends will always be there for you

Mid-day light is flashing on the wall Right-left pillows nowhere to fall I turn around in the hope to find something Is there something to hold on still? Lay out close your eyes and fall asleep Because like a broken string In the middle of a chorus All things collapse While everything appeared flawless Just like a broken string In the middle of a chorus You and I Are not immune to tragic endings Late PM is knocking at my door To let me know all her love for me is gone Is there something to hold on still? Lay out close your eyes and fall asleep Is there anything left for me? So many things that you can’t see

I guess it’s a part of that scene To feel like being all alone Along a bunch of lost kids, alone Once proud of being an actor Now that I am growing old I feel like no one comes out to make me feel like home Come and go we’ve all got used to see It breaks the core Well then, I won’t fake it We’ve been the first to know it when shits turned out wrong Suffering the weight of the choices you had to make Your empty smile coated of plastic plate Got you stuck at your own game The rulebook always stayed the same And this is not about to change You’ve got to face it

Eyelids glued up staring at the screen Standing right in front of you And I can’t help feeling Boring and wretched when I look at you But a little voice in me keeps screaming Don’t think too much You create a problem that was never there The world that you think you live in All the characters are fakes Don't think your life is boring Their world is surely worse than here If you truly want to change it You must first change your state of mind But the more I know about your life The less I want to leave the screen view Contemplating your achievements Makes me wanna be a part of you But a little voice in me keeps screaming Turn off the screen Illusions that you made are far from real Break up the connections That make you feel you’re a part of this machine

Backstabbed 02:47
A rude awakening has sent me back To when I thought I was awake I was so far from the track I raise my head up to the painted sky That's when I realized I shouldn't have closed my eyes A rude awakening has sent me back To when I thought you were a friend You stabbed me in the back I raise my head up to the mountain tops That’s when I realise that you stand on the top of it all And all that I’ve been given All things I’d give to you All of that you loosely stole from me And all the shame inflicted The trust that I’ve put in you All those things that I will steal you back And all that I've been given All things I'd give to you All of that you loosely stole from me And all the shame inflicted The trust I’ve put in you I'll sprinkle it all with gasoline I’ll set it ablaze with you I'll do everything that could ever hurt you enough And I guess it'd never be enough
