Tell me is there a place to hide From all the voices inside my mind Tell me is there a way to die Peacefully, without the pain inside Chasing shadows in a state of catatonic dream Pretending to perceive these thoughts mean nothing to me I feel I'll never be free of all the hate inside Keeps coming back to me and there's no place to hide No one is coming, my pulse is beating faster but I think I'm OK This is the warning - stand down or run away As the sinners march through this wicked land Empty minds started growing the idea of death Our existence is a failure from beginning till the end We are all the same, we bleed the same Paralyzed, step away from the light but keep your eyes wide open In the dark, we all hide to live with our minds half-broken Where are the signals that you promised? False prophets are hiding in the everglades Is this the drowning of my fire? How long 'till I evaporate? As the sinners march through this wicked land Empty minds started growing the idea of death Our existence is a failure from beginning till the end We are all the same, we bleed the same

Ghost Unity 04:41
Is this the pain I've been searching for? Is this the road I'm supposed to follow? I don't know, I don't know I'm holding on to nothing and I can't let go It's hard to face your own abyss A pool of empty words, hidden in the mist I'm reaching out, so close yet so far Will I ever learn how to survive? I am sinked inside And bathed in my withered memories I'm wasting my time But there is nothing that can stop this So this is goodbye To all of my friends, „I really cherish what you've done“ Cause when I needed you most You turned your back on me and left me all alone How can you heal the wounds that no one's able to see? Replace the pain with absence and embrace the longing I'm tired of believing you're the helping hand Every time I reached out, you left me buried in sand I'm just staring at the wastelands All alone, no sound, just my head spinning round and round and round In circles, my medicines are made of white and purple And so I stare – in vain Do I care, in my brain? What I see, what I hear? Blurry you, frantic me So tell me please, what's going on inside my head? I can see the light but it's just too far away So I embrace the night and I let it lead the way This is goodbye To all of my friends, „I really cherish what you've done“ Cause when I needed you most You turned your back on me and left me all alone You thought I'm ready to live, you thought you showed me the way I say fuck you all, try to live my day Breathe in, breathe out, hold tight Take a deep breath and let it out There's so much inside me that I can't let go I should bury the past and bring myself back home But the pain is so restless, so restless I never really knew where I'm supposed to go It's me and my demons when the lights are off I feel them under my skin, but they don't want to go But I know I'm not leaving, not leaving They won the battle, but not the war Breathe in, breathe out, hold tight Let it all go and make things right

Tension 04:26
You took the last thing that I had My mother's gift, ''that'' you will regret Don't wonder how, just know I will find you But don't forget I'm the one who's inside you I just want my sight back for a little bit I just want my sight for a little bit I just want my sight back, just a little bit I don't want to go blind I don't want to be the one who quits I just wanna be, just me Everytime I get out of my place I feel ashamed and so much discrace I can tell by the way that they blink , epileptic institution of the modern disease The weight is on my back tonight You don't have to worry about a thing I don't want to be the one who quits I just wanna be, just me For the sake of the world I wanna leave this place Everytime you deny, I get another chance To see myself surrounded by my own silhouettes They're whispering inside my ear (you're coming home) No more regrets I'm coming home You're begging me to find the way but I am lost in the world around me At least I saved some heart to carry on We’re frightened and we seek for vengeance We push each other out of boundaries But at least I saved some soul to say goodbye For the sake of the world I wanna leave this place Everytime you deny, I get another chance

"A perfect life", every moment is occasion We're growing old and we don't mind about our failures, no We carry on Thinking that we'll never have to say goodbye That I'll always see that sparkle in your eyes But you've learned to fly, oh you've learned to fly You think we're close but we're miles apart You need to breathe for the sake of our loved ones I can't remember the reason why Did we ever had to say goodbye? I saw a ghost in my father's eyes Only to see it's just my pale disguise Why did you ever learn to fly? We all hear what the raven sings Eagerly I wished the morrow - vainly I had sought to borrow From my mind surcease of sorrow - sorrow for the lost unknown For the rare and radiant maiden whom angels name you'll never know - Nameless here for evermore We're separated forevermore, but your light shines brighter than ever No more laying down on the floor, maybe it's safer for you to fly alone I feel your presence in the skies above And as the light keeps shining on I feet that I am really not alone And as we march through divided worlds We call our names but we hear the words We're too afraid to accept the truth We're growing old as we blind our youth

Deviance 04:40
I long for a sign of a better future I'm looking for a milestone that will drown our bitter past Will the echoes of my own failures give me strength to reverse the hourglass? One match can light up the ocean, but the fire won't last if it lacks devotion Just try to reach out and take control You know you're not alone, not alone I've always known this feeling is a waste of time But I don't wanna wake up, I don't wanna wake up You can't let it all fly even though you tried When the mind is changing what is left inside Empty home for a parasite crawling down my spine Taking over me, it's taking a part of me In where my heart appeared, remains for all unseen And as I’m waiting here alone (’m reaching out to a world long gone) I’m falling apart, this burden is poisoning my heart So I’m praying, but I never really knew how to talk to god Am I changing? Or is it just another moment when I lose my mind? I've always known this feeling is a waste of time But I don't wanna wake up, I don't wanna wake up You can't let it all fly even though you tried When the mind is changing what is left inside It's like you're falling down the stairs but you are laughing at the pain You're hanging off the cliff and you're mocking in the face of despair You're mocking in the face of despair I've always known this feeling is a waste of time But I don't wanna wake up, I don't wanna wake up You can't let it all fly even though you tried When the mind is changing what is left… Life goes on but your memory shines bright A bright star in the night sky, my guiding light I don’t wanna wake up

Shoganai 04:49
I feel my fractured mind is taking hold of me Just take a look in the mirror and tell me what do you see Another timeworn medal, weakened by this life A life that begs you to crawl, until you just let go You can't be happy on your own, so you let it go I feel this heavy burden slowly falling off my back But it was made with nails inside me, so it's ripping off my skin and flesh In a place where no one hears you, you're stuck inside your own delay In a place where no one sees you, you watch yourself decay And I know that I'll stay for the rest of time, I know… I am disconnected from my world And I know I won't be able to return This sacrifice was the only way To tell you a story of a broken man I just hope I'll never see you writing it for yourself Cause you'll never know the pain, 'till you embrace it I'll never see the end, cause there's no end for the hopeless I'll never see my home, cause there's no home for the homeless There is no one, there's no one waiting for me Only void in prosperity I am disconnected from my world And I know I won't be able to return This sacrifice was the only way To tell you a story of a broken man Tell me now, was it worth it all? I tell you No one can explain this feeling of joy, even when it rips my flesh I'm kind of begging for more And it feels like it's better than it was before, feels like it's something I was waiting for And I've felt so tired, I just couldn't sleep Now I don't need that shit, I'm fine like this Now I don't need that shit, I'm fine like this I don't need you

It seems the warmth of my body is slowly fading away And every memory I had follows my clock till the end And now I'm paying for the sorries that I couldn't say I thought I had the years, now seconds turn to days I thought I'm heading to a place where everything makes sense But I arrived into the ocean of my self-despair Drowning and praying "Please give me just another chance!" He said "You had the years, but you just didn't care" Oh, I don't care for every moment that I wasted, every bottle, every cigarette I’ve been stepping over boundaries of my sickness, I’m stuck in a place where even medicines call for help, they call for help Is this the reason I feel lost? So tired and alone Is this what I've been searching for? You don't always get what you want If this was only just a dream, would I take it all for real? I think I'd save myself a week, but you'd be back up on your feet Darkness is coming fast As the sun hits the bottom I put my eyes to rest What if the weight of my world fell onto someone else's back? What if the burden's too heavy and the price is too much to pay? Responsibility strikes when the water is up to your neck And you realize that you had the chance, but you just didn’t care It seems the warmth of my body is slowly fading away And every memory I had follows my clock till the end Is this the reason I feel lost? So tired and alone Is this what I've been searching for? You don't always get what you want If this was only just a dream, would I take it all for real? I think I'd wake up just to see That this world is not meant for me There is no god, there's just an endless void No one is there, you're all alone again Following footsteps to my own demise All I can see is just a shadow of me Walking through infinity We're trying to find someone to set us free We're trying hard, but it's too late to believe We are chasing for something so unreachable (something so unreachable) But that's the path that we chose, we chose to walk alone (and there's no turning back, there is no turning back) And now we're praying to God for the unthinkable (the unthinkable) But there's no one to hear, no one to wash your tears, 'cause these gods are not from this world It seems the warmth of my body is slowly fading away And every memory I had follows my clock till the end And now I'm paying for the sorries that I couldn't say I thought I had the years, now I got nothing left

Departure 05:23
This is the fall of hearts We are trying to face it, but we can't understand Our seeds are slowly turning into sand Do you feel like we're buying time? We removed the chair, but again the rope has failed We're sinking into monotonic waters we once sailed How can I stop this torture, how can I make things better? Through your eyes, I'm just a stranger, in your heart just a failure Stand up and take this crown My queen, you can rule forever Yes I know, you'll let me down It's easier to rule if we're not together Cause I have finally said goodbye And I'm ready to explode I've tried to face it all alone, but somehow ended lost and gone Could this be the end? So I turn the page again In hope to find us in a better state But it's hard to face the odds Cause the odds are always fucking same I don't know what's wrong with me I'm sitting alone, but somehow you're right here I believed in what my eyes can see But the echo in my head is denying my beliefs Am I going insane? I have finally said goodbye And I'm ready to explode I've tried to face it all alone, but somehow ended lost and gone Could this be the end? So if I'll try to change my heart I'll need a safer hand to pull me back to the start A new start where I can feel like I have felt before But now it's just a dream and its better than this sore And I know this is not ordinary state of mind But it feels like it's changing me from bones to my heart So I'll just sit down and ask myself Are you truly alive or you're just in my head? Just go away 'Cause I have finally realized That I've been fighting with my head Not with you my love, you're dead For me, you're dead
