Damned and Cursed

This fear is a magnet
which leads to hate
it pulls into life
and it resonates
Implanted echos in our minds
We are part of the great divide
Are you aware of your stake in the game?
We stumble upon the bodies burried in shame
As we try to find our way in this haze of duality
You can't escape from what you damn and curse
Parse and analyse everything
bring it together in better efficiency
The arsonists and the hypocrites
prevaricate 'till their picture fits
Empathy leeds to a deeper understanding
A web of minds expanding
You can't escape from what you damn and curse
Drop all your dogmas
and reform your concept of ideas
of society's success
order and possibilities
Forget everything you've learned
So you will rebuild the framework of the world
Breaking the scheme
Strive against the stream
Living the dream
This fear is a magnet
which leads to hate
it pulls into life
and it resonates
Implanted echos in our minds
This is the great divide
Every human soul is one
The soul of force
We might fall as victims to it's own
and this charge gets us down
from our timeless skies
A burden inherent
just forgotten and repressed
We are not holy
We are chosen
You can't escape
(forgotten and repressed)
from what you damn and curse
You can't escape
Maybe we're just damned & cursed

Artificial Mind Design

Do you believe in this veracity?
Don't mistake it for reality
Designed emotions planted in our minds
Artificial mind design
Necessities haunting me
Awakening from a dream
the echo of a scream
disappears beckoning
Leaving just behind a familiar taste
more than suspicious to me
What have we become?
It's on the tip of my tongue
Identities for you and me
Do you believe in this veracity?
Don't mistake it for reality
Designed emotions planted in our minds
Artificial mind design
We gave up reality for comfort and security
What drove us this far off the path
You'll be dealing with the aftermath
A dream come true
What would it mean to you?
Identities for you and me
Buy a lie for your esteem
Put your dream on the screen
only the truth to redeem
Leaving just behind a familiar taste
more than suspicious to me
Simulated life
Only money can buy
a ransom for conscience
Abolished consequences
Necessities haunting me
What have we become?
We are marching to the drum
With our heads up in the clouds
we gave up reality for comfort and security

Stories Repeat

If there is a thousand wars in store
I know you won't ask for more
We are chased to go off the deep end
Bite the bullet
Weather the storm
Pray for a change in form
We don't belong here
until we disappear
Are we loosing our dreams again?
Nothing seems as it's meant to be
Can you tell me
is the point of no return today?
The world is a mirror
and stories repeat
Vicious cycles bleed
We are chased to go off the deep end
Bite the bullet
Weather the storm
Retrieve and reform
We don't belong here
until we disappear
Now that the end of the world is here
for sure luxurious
furious
aren't you curious?
The world is a mirror
and stories repeat
vicious cycles bleed
The world is a miracle
Stories repeat
and vicious cycles bleed
we're nothing more than the blink of a moment
with a vague and naive sense for eternity
cursed with transience and grief
Break free
in the house of mirrors
stories repeat endlessly
Find your way out
Stories repeat

Undertow
03:49

It's never clean behind the film
We are staring at supernal charades
Unrequited lust
Yeah we suffer
We are bleeding upside down
I'm drowning
The more you strive against
the faster you will sink
There's a maelstrom
Pulling at us all
Can't you feel the undertow?
Staring at a glimpse of hope to die
flickering thaughts are running through my mind
All I know keeps me guessing
as illusion wraps me up
I'm weary of this unrequited lust
We all succumb the unpredictable,
the unconvertible
I've tried to hold the weight of the world on my own
as feathers turn to stone
We're only a grain of sand
Show me a reason to withstand
We are bleeding upside down
I'm drowning
The more you strive against
the faster you will sink
There's a maelstrom
Pulling at us all
Can't you feel the undertow?
Flickering thoughts are running through my mind
What is it thats tearing at me from inside?
Can't you let go parasite?
Am I alive or just colourblind?
Yeah we suffer
We are bleeding upside down
I'm drowning
The more you strive against
the faster you will sink
There's a maelstrom
Pulling at us all
Can't you feel the undertow?

Flying Colours

Who am I?
Only one of many who are trying to find their way
in the swamp of today
At a time
when the masses are screaming what populists prophesy
We are the children of prosperity
surrounded by abuses
Lethargic through the day
(Come and find your way)
We are the generation of ignorance
Behind closed eyes we believe in lies
I donít want to
You donít have to
be gullible and blind
Free your mind
from self-inflicted immaturity
Compose yourself
Let the anger run wild
Stop believing
Your life has no meaning
to wallow in forlornness self-deceiving
(Let the anger run wild)
Loose lips sink ships
and ignorance is bliss
Without resistance
our existance will never start making a difference
We are lost in a corrupt world
every man for himself
With flying colours and singing notes
We choke on our stuffed throats
We are a sick society
dying slowly and quietly
Our anger for a new beginning
(Together we start singing)
are you ready for a life worth living?
Free your mind
from self-inflicted immaturity
Compose yourself!
Let the anger run wild
Our anger for a new beginning
Let the anger run wild
