I demand nothing, but I want it all
what privilege do we have under the sun, that gives us the right to the throne? species come and go, but the earth stands forever fast all river runs towards the sea, but the sea is never full to discover the loneliness and be to proud to show the wounds will forever wander alone through the years but I won't let you near begging for you to understand the fear that lives in my soul which is an untouched spring read, what is written on the silent mouth what is written in the soul for which is written in the shining silence we all have to read my body will be bent from the burdens when the shaking floor of life-force reveal its chasm underneath if only one could be two steps ahead |

in your world, the day is no threat
in my world, there is an absence of light "genetic superior cell" controlled by the fathomless and unbearable a radical new Form of plastic and rage biologically optimized but with a strangling pulse in your world, you find me worthy in my world, I "parashoot" my life a virtual drugstore populated by the fathomless and unbearable machine, meat and blood in an intimate relationship the new - superior - more effective than all the preceding when we can no longer cry and reality is torn then it's easy to forget that the responsibility lies on us all in your world, the night is no threat in my world, the darkness transforms to a vision of hell populated by fathomless and unbearable |

jet-black sinister architecture being installed when nobody sees Their appearance so sudden that few would take notice And when I wake up I imagine being crushed by one imaginating it's weight it's silence and the absence of excuses for a havoced life and the priviledge of a 22-kilometers tombstone Jotun A body of black that carried no reflection defying it's own room un-earthly egg of decreation There would be colonies mushroom-scattered forever out of content rising spores from a dying world to pollute and chase away what's left Sun-white pulverised desert stone and serpentine lizard mouths Pales away the pyramids rewriting 4500 years of history raping the statue of liberty outplays the acropolis inverting the fjords invades the ... skyline to dream its own existence in one single final word Jotun Can we identify them as the flint buried in our reptile skulls or the time-bomb coded in our dna |

introduces itself to the concept of total loneliness Sensations repressed make friends with Suicidia and here the leeches begin to suck away the lust for life Thus Escape takes lead into a world unknown uncontrolled by all where border are erased and potential infinite Chosen cells glands and transmittors blast the body with joy Astral feet running up to dimension covered with gold stairs of glowing ectoplasma safir onyx and buzzing vibrations A dead man banquet food for the gods There's only 1 real world our earth is but a shadow Created from a child's heart a living jewel from now on abode for a soul in its setting Now sutting the bloodline re-tie the bleeding roots to a heavenly ship of glass and let it drift in passive arrogance in a one-word dialogue with the stars |

A one-man struggle beneath the tower I think the clock still exist God just forgot to tap my shoulder I woke up today I wish I felt something The odour of my apathy Just might be true I want to be the things I see The pilgrim that is me But I know I ain't that free The suburban that is me Spirits rise and miss the eye Covered by the stench of judgement As gods reflection tests my pride I serve the failure that's haunting me Twisted visions torturing Who claims to be the one? That filtered smile Just might be true I want to be the things I see The pilgrim that is me But I know I ain't that free The suburban that is me Can you hear the message As I wrestle with the clouds? I'm on the way to succumb It just might be true |

The other side of the platinum door
another day in quicksand Still feel close to nowhere I hope this is the right way How come you see me as an enemy? We just think in different words I see beauty in dead flowers I let the tide show me what's next But all you do is fade away There's no shame in being the fool I've been to places you'll never find The empty plate that you call home Won't bring glimmer to future year By myself, staring into space You're just bored of the silence it makes I see beauty in dead flowers I let the tide show me what's next But all you do is fade away I see beauty in dead flowers I let the tide show me what's next But all you do is fade away I see beauty in dead flowers I let the tide show me what's next But all you do is fade away I see beauty in dead flowers I let the tide show me what's next But all you do is fade away |

One lie was all it took everything ended right there
You didn't seem to care One lie I walked away weight on my shoulders was heavy Barrel to my head Will you give me a good excuse Will you let me die right here and now ? I can't think of another way But I'm open to any good advice Everything is falling apart Trying hard to be strong and smart One day was all it took Start to get back on my feet heart begin to beat One week I'm feeling great dancing around in the street Feeling young and free Will you give me a good excuse Will you let me die right here and now ? I can't think of another way But I'm open to any good advice Everything is falling apart Trying hard to be strong and smart |

Don't show me new results I'll never enter your heaven Make the most out of my dirty cell Creeps infected by control That's what put me in here Dig deep don't think you ever get To the place where they buried me The last glimpse that I have Fragments, pieces of some things valuable even though it doesn't make sense anymore I release my last tear My frustration My conversation Why are we even here? the abuse That we use I do not longer care The cold worms and me We are all right We are free The dead light inside Fuel to new seed New world I hide When there are only my bones Please put them in use Want to be part of a new dawn The day darkness disappears Don't release these chains Never been closer to myself All your mistakes run through As I realize what we become The end is here to bid farewell I'll turn to ash and hear them sing Songs about my emotions dead and alone Don't make an effort You don't know me anyway |

I'm not supposed to be like this I should be on the top of the world Is anybody out there like me? I followed - something's missing Self control - forcing me down Whispers consume the air Above her I'm endless When the rain comes falling I'll freeze, I'm so afraid When things start to flood me I'll drown in seconds Fear - there's a way out Touch of red Break away Nothing has it all Bury the place I've been I fear there's a way out As if I ever had a choice All in the hands of the energy Once again I feel the quicksand Swallow me, tonight I won't struggle Fear - there's a way out Touch of red Break away Nothing has it all Bury the place I've been I fear there's a way out The weak in me should know I'm as sober as I could be Swallow me, tonight I won't struggle The weak in me should know I'm as sober as I could be |

I'm selling heavenly sketches
A world out of my mind Ready to explode in purity To fill the holes inside An ever moving stream With glowing rays of light Emotions tied to past lies And I know I should let go Tamed with confidence of brighter future I found a flame in the burnt out ashes... burn out, burn out Fueled these new shores burn Dark past lies cold Shadow, my sweet shadow To you I look no more Another dawn collapses Do I need to be reminded? A glimpse of my safe home A path to hide all anger I found a flame in the burnt out ashes... burn out, burn out Fueled these new shores burn Dark past lies cold Shadow, my sweet shadow To you I look no more In circles I catch A torch carried by the immortal From depths that I created In vain echoes fade Burn out Fueled these new shores burn Dark past lies cold Shadow, my sweet shadow To you I look no more. Fueled these new shores burn Dark past lies cold Shadow, my sweet shadow To you I look no more. |

You finished my sentences I could never attract tomorrow It pushes me aside I sink in waters deep Your presence kept me floating Far from depths where secrets lie Maybe in another lifetime I could be the first you meet I once read a poem Held my breath But that moment's gone First time I felt life somewhat hurts I need an option, a reason, and some hope Yell at me, I want to be your light that shines But my ground is shaking and I might fall I wish that I could say I wish that I could be your evil in a closet Yell at me, I want to be your light that shines But my ground is shaking and I might fall I wish that I could say I wish that I could be your evil in a closet |

Fear in me so deep You push me out, I feel far The absence, close to me The otherside I crawl You push me out, I fall Heal my wounds with everything Away you complicate me Sick of cycles, drop to zero A while just like last times My least favourite re-run Sick of cycles, I bounce in grey Escape familiar home Memories remains alone Reality trapped inside The wicked descend - I hide Testing higher mentality I conquer myself through this A furious path to walk New space does exist beyond In silence I dwell Displeased Remain with the seed of unfulfilment Try to remove obstacles as they appear my master said Don't look too far, you'll stumble before you're even there |

I really don't have anything to say
Just pass me by Don't ask me the same questions Just deny I'm there Like the time around me This room is filled with nothing Fell awkward in a place with many Leave this space to me I channel the pain through this The paper, the pen, your eyes To stare into what's next It frightens me No control, no reward Still and breathless I don't care what's behind To you I look for energy To catch my breath again I channel the pain through this The paper, the pen, your eyes To stare into what's next It frightens me No control, no reward I'm in circles again I'm in circles again The world looks old to me Tonight I drink myself sober Soon this could be over Tale a picture of the pale New morning knocking Feels just like always Pen down my regrets I reach to you again I channel the pain through this The paper, the pen, your eyes To stare into what's next It frightens me No control, no reward I'm in circles again I channel the pain through this The paper, the pen, your eyes To stare into what's next It frightens me No control, no reward I'm in circles again I'm in circles again I'm in circles again |

This spectacle, our collapse
It's not a false alarm The ashes settle in. I guess, we are the insane As we ignore the mirror's truth Should I join the feast? Should I acknowledge the leash? A future in captivity I'm not who I'm supposed to be. Without even trying (killing the last scene) Let this light explode. The bleeding, we deceive them Fuel the life that fades At the height of reason We shouldn live by your laws Call the swarm Feed them another false hope. [x2] Without even trying (killing the last scene) Let this night explode Without even trying Find the exit sign and disappear |

Consume, just like a worm,
Catch a glimpse of the sun through cracks, Everything, I swallow whole, And hide before the flood. The way I see things, I wish they could be true, But take me all the way. The trail of the torment, Is not a path anymore, But take me for a ride. Delete the past, the fear, Delete the past, every step is pure, Delete the past from here, forward, Delete the past, every step is pure. Afraid of lost control, Still there's a part of me that wants to feel insecure, Afraid of lost control, It keeps me on the edge. Delete the past, the fear, Delete the past, every step is pure, Delete the past from here, forward, Delete the past, every step is pure. The way I see things, I wish they could be true, But take me all the way. Delete the past, the fear, forward, Delete the past, every step is pure, Delete the past from here, forward, Delete the past, every step is pure. |

We all find ourselves,
In honor of the good cause. How empty we've become, With our sight to be the true force. Does every instinct say you're right? I think sometimes there is doubt. You're waiting for a re-run, But yesterday won't come. Want to relive the moment, But yesterday is done. Lies and desperation lead us through as we're trying to be heroic, I swept the world to watch you manage. Take a step back, I'll tie you to it. You're waiting for a re-run, But yesterday won't come. Want to relive the moment, But yesterday is done. Hopes and prayers in pursuit of salvation, Take a short cut, it only bends our cause. But as far as I remember, There is nothing that will get back the days you lost. Does every instinct say you're right? I think sometimes there is doubt. You're waiting for a re-run, But yesterday won't come. Want to relive the moment, But yesterday is done. |

We believe but we are deceased
Or soon to be I act surprised You've seen the seas It's just enough to feed the trees We believe but we are not free This wasteland is our prison I act surprised I see the bones through your skin This radiation from within I grant you this torn land I'd rather not live here anymore Don't say I didn't try but I'd rather not live here anymore We believe but we don't see The coming of the storm Why act surprised There are warning from time to time Signs of our own decline We are the scavengers We plunder and rape We're the guests here, the new breed But act like its ours to take I grant you this torn land I'd rather not live here anymore Don't say I didn't try but I'd rather not live here anymore We believe but we don't see I grant you This torn land I'd rather not live here anymore Don't say I didn't try but I'd rather not live here anymore I grant you this torn land I'd rather not Don't say I didn't try but I'd rather not live here anymore |

You won't Find a friendly face in the crowd, It's quite amusing to see how you suffer I refuse, to let you steal my delight, Barely awake - but it strengthens my night rage I've seen you kill many dreams, But I got brand new armour, And your weapons are way out of reach How does it feel to be demolished, Vaporized into thin air? Strange new feeling to be nothing. [Chorus] All the words I hear... they don't mean a thing [x2] All drenched in fear, And the hate you bring Make me bother, I dare you, I've got the strength I need, But I'll await my darkest moment, When the guilt doesn't get to me. [Chorus x2]

Hopeless times approach Just give into the chaos Strangely I find comfort here Impatient and curious of what may come ...And so the rampage begins Against the headache I can't win [Chorus:] Drain Me Keep me in the dark I don't want to take part Prefer to be forever numb Nothing great can come out of this But I'm hostage to myself I fear I might collapse on the razor's edge And I fear I'll realize when it's too late ...And so the rampage begins Against the headache I can't win [Chorus] Sleepless again I need to ease my mind And kill what burns inside Sleepless again I can't win [Chorus]

The serpent knows, When the curtain falls, With denials blindfold, He greets another day Don't believe the mask It adapts to any lie, A perfect ten, When reality caves in Don't tell me, Tell my ghost, 'cause I blame him For all I don't want to know I found secrets about life's undertow Life's wrapped in a riddle, Easier said than done, Way to play the victim, Just run and hide. Don't believe the mask It adapts to any lie, A perfec ten When reality caves in Don't tell me, Tell my ghost, 'cause I blame him For all I don't want to know I found secrets about life's undertow Let them take me far away Crawl back in place, It's easier to cope behind the curtain, Wipe the worries away No thought about the consequence Don't believe the mask It adapts to any lie, A perfec ten, When reality caves in Don't tell me, Tell my ghost, 'cause I blame him For all I don't want to know I found secrets about life's undertow Let them take me far away

I am my deepest shadow, Something I can't ever neglect, Rise above these ashes, Or fall and fade away In dark moments, I know better, Within destruction, I see clearly [Chorus:] From here to new grounds, Suppose I will do it alone, With a smile through black design Fearless of your conviction Staring into truth, I am the highway, Existence, care for me in all Your everlasting complications In dark moments, I know better Within destruction, I see clearly [Chorus] Forget the promised land, There was never an invitation, Today I create my own, Before there was sorrow And lack of attention [Chorus]

Everyday takes figuring out how to live, Sometimes it feels like a mistake, Sometimes it's a winner's parade, Delight and angers, I guess that's the way it's supposed to be... [Chorus:] Please heal me, I can't sleep Thought I was unbreakable, but this is killing me Call me, everything, make me feel unbreakable, Lie and set me free I feel the fear take hold Afraid this hell I create is my own Calm my franticness, I can't take it anymore, This used to be my own world, But now I've lost control [Chorus] Chasing leftovers, Under the fading sun, Searching for shelter, I feel my time has come [Chorus]

Consume the curse
That brings you down (A fading liar) Who wakes up alone It's there In front of you [Chorus:] Invert this tragedy to come And reclaim your future This is a call to arms One quest at a time Feed the hunger, Climb on up Repress the negative You are not alone It's there In front of you [Chorus] Avoid the mould Desperate you regress Move through me I'll be your triumph [Chorus] |

Used to be original, But now I tremble in fear I am like everyone else And that buries me Is this how it feels To reach rock bottom Want to know how it feels to be forgotten? [Chorus:] I've become the distance, I am the sober and irrelevant, I don't feel but in this, What is there to believe? I'm not asking for much, just a moment A chance to pick up the pieces Happiness, please, come home What if it ends right here How do I change it? Hoping to find a saviour I've lost my way [Chorus] Is this how it feels To reach rock bottom Want to know how it feels to be forgotten? Hoping to find a saviour I've lost my way [Chorus]

I'm so restless, These walls drain my thoughts Room 307 I can't find my way out It used to be my home These days, far from my comfort zone Alive but without control... Fear is taking hold I should cross the line Confront like the blind [Chorus:] Hear a distant cry... Would you tell me how To break the cycle that I'm in And discover the living? I don't recognise my soul Condemned to live in this black hole Deep within time... and crave what is mine. [Chorus] I should cross the line... Confront like the blind Hear a distant cry... Would you tell me how To break the cycle that I'm in It's a hill to climb Would you dream if I, Design the future Not the end of time

You won't
Find a friendly face in the crowd, It's quite amusing to see how you suffer I refuse, to let you steal my daylight, Barely awake - but it strengthens my night rage I've seen you kill many dreams, But I got brand new armour, And your weapons are way out of reach How does it feel to be demolished, Vaporized into thin air?

I used to adore you The lies made sense somehow Gave myself away without a fight But the betrayal claims its price At first I was scared Not used to a murder's mind But there was something beautiful So powerful, so definite, so divine Pushing the faith Build out of rage [Chorus:] Falling ideals Broken seals March to the shore You are a killer! Is it something that's always been there? Was it destined to leave its cage? I'm glad we met though I love to release the rage But everything has its end And I've done my deed The final bullet - always meant for me Pushing the faith Build out of rage [Chorus] But everything has its end And I've done my deed The final bullet - always meant for me [Chorus x2]
