My Other Self
09:22

|

I can't remember daylight fading - or being on my own
darkness fell so suddenly
Whispers cutting silence - drowning all my thoughts
Muting what is left of me
I close my eyes - can't escape - my inner double vision
and slowly start - to realize - it's out of my decision
There's noone to blame - but the only thing I find
can't escape - the dawn of madness in my mind
Hiding from my other self - is driving me insane
The endless imitation game is the reason for my pain
Seems I found the promised lie - it wasn't far ahead
Fighting the extinction of my feeling
Memories of my emotions - sustaining in my head
While time must do the healing
Hiding from my other self - lurkin' in my brain
The endless imitation game is the reason for my pain
The inquisition starts inside - with fear a constant threat
I must always keep on fighting - two minds in my head
Locked insde a mirror - forging allies in my mind
transforming my reality, I'm obsessed until I find...
Hiding from my other self - is driving my insane
The endless imitation game is the reason for my pain
The inquisition starts inside - with fear a constant threat
I will always keep on fighting - two minds in my head

Electric Love

Electric love - In a digital world
Connecting to you
Clear blue skies in my windows
And the green screen gras of home
Time is my precious gift - the fear of losing power
I confirm myself inside - with the world in my eyes
My inner wire - under constant fire
I can't stop the desire
The mind invasion - perfect equation
Social devastation
iCan't - iWon't - iNeed to be there - deep inside
The heart of the core - it pulled me in - but never gave me back
And the wind carries my life - to a time far away
Hours lost forever
To reach the other side - a place I'll never find,
Hiding behind my hands
The void of space @ my fingertips
Galaxy of the lost ones
Virtual reality has taken control
Alien robots - forbidden fruit for free
The time - will come - to pay the price - you and I will see
What have we become - racing into the future
In a sale-powered shoppingcart-race
Share what we like - stripping down to our hollow souls
And the wind carries my life - to a time far away
I was lost forever
To reach the other side - a place I'll never find,
Hiding behind my hands

Flying Away
08:07

Flying away into the night
Whenever you feel like flying
Searching to find a brighter light
In the void of your soul - you've lost control
Ever fearful when the night falls
Haunted by the curse of fantasy
Dark shadows cover every thought
Nightmares blending into my reality
You never care about tomorrow
Think everything will be just fine
Feeding the beast without sorrow
And keep on waiting for the punch line
Hungry raptors broken the defence
they're yearning for the feast
Hunting for the utmost innocence
the fallen ones are prey for the beast
But you cannot run from here
This time you'll have to fly
Rising up through the atmosphere
A blackbird in a darkened sky
Flying away into the night
Whenever you feel like flying
Searching to find a brighter light
In the void of your soul...
Coming back home, after the night
For so long you've been away
Searching for the brightest light
What you've found you wouldn't say
But you cannot run from here
This time you'll have to fly
Rising up through the atmosphere
A blackbird in a darkened sky

Start Today
04:52
|

The ice around you - keeps melting away
It's time to change - the state of play
let's do something - not tomorrow
just anything to end this sorrow
Because you turned away
Don't find the words to say
Thoughts can change the world
Why don't you start today
Devastation surrounds us all
Never getting enough of more
You could be the weakest link
Strong and tough but poor
Unable to break out - from our cosy lifes
Don't know what it's all about - fighting to survive
It's the hidden fear within us all
lazyness is a comforting thing
If you fight you can loose
If you don't fight you've already lost
Fearing tomorrow - the day we lose our lifes
Fading away - choking on lies
Because you turned away
Don't find the words to say
Thoughts can change the world
Why don't you start today
You're still on your way - the price you'll have to pay
So try to start today

Lord Of Lies
09:28
|
|

Waiting for the day to fade away - start a new endeavor
Looking for a sign, a light divine - eternal peace forever
Dies irae
Awaiting the day - to fade away
Looking for a sign - a light divine
Open up your eyes - wherever you may roam
Redemption has it's price - in the store within a dome.
Selling salvation, faith and fear - because the end draws near
But your soul will survive - see the deals for the afterlife
Devotion is the goal and key for the catcher in the sky
But he can only catch you - with sand in the eye
There's something called reality - it can finally set your mind free
Endless possibilities – not being forced to believe
You're falling in love with the the lord of lies
Keepin'the truth so distant
Loading your mind with their alibies
What a beautiful illusion
This world gives us reasons to believe
But sacred lies can only bring despair and grief
You must understand this works in paradox ways
Being forced to obey - makes you rather lose your faith
The eternal fairytale - blinding these eyes
I see your face so pale - nightmare in disguise
A kaleidoscope - of sacred lies - agony and pain
Forcing hope a million times - but the answer is the same
Hurting those they should protect - and then protect the ones that hurt
Lust is a burden they try to neglect - don't go diggin' in this dirt
A simple thing and that's a fact - and it doesn't sound absurd
You can't prevent to interact - this little thing makes you pervert
Salvation solutions, soul absolution, what a beautiful illusion
insidious mass delusion
You're falling in love with the the lord of lies
Keepin'the truth so distant
Loading your mind with their alibies
While I'm just sitting here...
Waiting for the day - to fade away - dreamless sleep forever
Looking for no sign noone can find
I am falling into never

Toxic Toys
10:08
|
|

After the smoke has disapeared
From brothers fighting brothers
Accepting fate as we always feared
With so many others
Overloading on impressions
I don't know - I just can't see
Any reason for regression
Dreaming the dream of beeing free
Marching on, with all I own
Wearing my possesions on my skin
Random faces left alone
A nightmare that we are within
Where am I going, when nobody cares,
Searching for the promised land
We're more than just some foreigners
Will they ever understand
Toxic toys falling from the sky wasting life
With all that's left of my existence
I'm walking the road to survive
Can you imagine, fear and anger
Signs of hope forever lost
I'm fleeing on the road of danger
Staying strong no matter what it costs
Toxic toys falling from the sky wasting life
With all that's left of my existence
I'm walking the road to survive
Dazed and refused in the eye of the storm
Searching for a sanctuary
Overdosed on fighting wars against our desperate leaders
Paralysed by lies - so we're taking fate in our hands
Approaching our destiny
(Nobody cares, nobody wants to see ...)
What if death was chasing you
What if you had to run
From the fallout of someone elses failed policies
Burning your cities alive
The powerful have made their choice
inside the iron mountain
Unable to here our voice
Remote controlling fate
Toxic toys falling from the
sky - wasting our life
With all that's left of my existence
I'm walking the road to survive
Signed away our self esteem
Tossed around like leaves on a tree
Far away from chasing dreams
Remote controlled into uncertainty
