Victim

Hate – this is the order of the day
I see the black lines in your face
Your eyes filled with disgrace
Blood – this is all you want today
Without thinking clear and straight
You erase another fate
Here’s your victim
Go and get it
I let you off your rope
And then they run
They run for their lives
They ain’t coming back
All the skies are black
And now they run
Afraid to fade
And there’s no one in this place
To help `em out of their disgrace
Fault – it’s what you’re lookin for today
You don’t need anybody else
Cause there’s a victim in this place
God –to you they're gonna pray
You won’t help them to survive
Cause you never did in my life

What I've Become

It’s not my fault that you once lost your way
And I don’t care ‘bout you breaking through the ground
I feel sorry for you being down and out
Until the day the old man stopped me on the street with a sign in his hand reading:
I hate what I’ve become
The same mistakes the same old game
I keep on trying
I keep on failing
I keep on moving forward
I’ll head down for it
Even though I know
I have my back up against the wall
Sometimes someone can change your perspective
On the shit that you will face every day and
Every night I think of my past and the wasted life I head
Until the day the old man stopped me on the street the solution in his hand screaming:
I hate what I’ve become
The same mistakes the same old game
I keep on trying
I keep on failing
I keep on moving forward
I’ll head down for it
Even though I know
I have my back up against the wall
And when I’m all alone
I can recall the day
He was approaching me
Like a lonely ghost
With eyes like hollow caves
He’s seen my life pass by
An empty shell of time
I have to fill again.

Education For Greed
03:39
|

I'm giving up to this world of necessities
I'm giving in cause I can't resist the sweet call baiting me
leading me to products I'll never need
to consume everything I get and start all over again
what you see is what you'll get, for sure!
a special price and extra quality
There comes a time when we all come to realize
that we're forced to a abide by commands we never wanted to hear
and I feel It's the right time to stand up (and fight back)
against a system that is driving us all the way to insanity
I don't wanna play your game anymore
a dictatorship of idiocracy
I can see that you're looking at me
with your eyes full of hate and hypocrisy
You wanna sell another lie to me
like an interest rate for greed

Wrong

Since forever I’m waiting for my execution
the venom in my veins, my final resolution
To tired to sleep, my eyes are red and I’m awake
don’t wanna rest until I sigh my final breath
Could pray to god in desperate search for absolution
but I don’t give a shit and I won’t start doing now!
And if I reconsider this, it ever felt so wrong
And today I wish that I could say that I knew it all along
Got no impulse to get out of my situation
reject the future cause I ain’t got motivation
I can’t pretend that I have tears inside my eyes
well, I don’t need to cause my whole life was a lie
someboday tells to prepare my last confession
but I will never cause all I want is die
And if I reconsider this, it ever felt so wrong
And today I wish that I could say that I knew it all along
So come on, push the needle in my veins
make the venom flow
and I want everybody to know
that I got what I deserved.
And when my tired eyelids fell
they can meet me at the doorstep of hell.

Bleed Me A River

We Can go out and beat the system if we want to give 'em hell
as long as we move forward finding stories worth to tell
so take my hand and let us be what this world has never seen
as long as I have pen and paper and a story worth to tell
That night I woke up with bright colours up my head
when dark turned into daylight and white turned into red
I went out and take a smoke in fresh air and freezing winds
where will I be tomorrow what harbor will I be in?
Then it hit me like a punch, old memories are coming up
when I met her for the first time, when I opened a new chapter
and I didn't know her name and she didn't ask for mine
but she showed me new directions, a new path for me that time
Somehow it's hard to stand, the words she spoke and what they meant
but in your deepest part of heart there is a door that never shuts
That night she left me, the door is still open and we started something
bigger than us
