Past, present, ashes
03:44
|

No future in sight
And there I go
Safety is just a blur
Of the world you have built
Every shade of grey grows darker
And the world seems to barter
Their life for a piece of gold
And always I hear you calling my name
I end up the same
In some alley way
Those were the times of loneliness and fear
I'm packing up and never shed a tear
The city lights mark my path
I'm getting back my pride at last
And never come back
No never come back
Is that what you asked?
I don't wanna hear
It's a new start
The city lights mark my path
I'm getting back my pride at last
I don't wanna hear it's a new start
This is what you asked
This is what you asked
And never
Ever come back

Beheaded
02:57
|
|||
I played too long with fire and I burned myself
Again my soul is lost
As if I even had one
I pulled my eyes this time
And I got them following you
But I don't mind who you are
'Cause I know the truth
Got my mind thrown up through the roof
And obviously I know I deserve all this
'Cause I saw that coming
I tried to understand
Reality around me
Failed miserably
Now I'm under the yoke of bigotry
The drums are playing in my head
The part that keeps me alive and breathing
Is on strike
Those dark eyes that watch me at night
Won't leave until I die
Or so I describe
Tried to belong here
To a place I called home
I never fit nowhere
So I'll wither alone

Red handed
03:15
|
|||
You said no more
While looking to my eyes
I didn't see it coming
I thought it was a lie
I'm getting up
Just over it
To know you sold my life for the half of it
You were my best friend
I believed in you
Catched red handed
And you got me screwed
Betrayed and stabbed in the back
Make a fool of myself, no longer a wrack
And I can blame it to myself this time
I was well aware of your grime
And I can blame it to yourself again
You know well enough you were causing pain
And I just wanted to let it go
Friendship's so easy to bestow
And I just wanted to believe
There's something bigger to achieve
There's something wrong
There's something so wrong
A web of lies
Around myself
You tangled so well
I can't escape
Now I've got nothing to remain
Catched red handed once again
You said no more
While looking to my eyes
I did see it coming
I know it was a lie

Our time
03:05
|
|||
And I really have this feeling
That my time is passing by
we were meant for such great things
And we barely touched the sky
But here we are
Looking each other with hazel eyes
No time to lose
It's you I miss
I can remember just a kiss
And after all this years
I didn't fall
Drowned by my fears
But here I am again
Stripped down
At your doorstep
Lost and found
Lost and found
But here I am
Again
This is our time
We played our roles
We had our lifes
Again I miss
Again I fail
I'm here stucked
In your head
I'm here stucked
In you

Give
02:17
|
|||
Why the fuck I do this again?
Why do I fight when I've lost
The fight is over just hail the king
When all this shit did just begin?
To lose a war against conformity
The sky is not falling
But, do you feel free?
Since I was born the word was need
And I'm replacing it by give
I can't, I can't
See faces anymore
Accomplices of our downfall
Watch the lies, watch your step
Don't paint yourself in any way
Watch the lies, watch your step
You're doing well, you're doing well
We all want change, do you believe?
I don't really think so
As long as we let go
'Cause I don't think this is the eve
Of humane salvation
We're beyond extinction

Fortunate son
02:21
|
|||
Some folks are born, made to wave the flag
they're red, white and blue
And when the band plays "Hail to the Chief"
they point the cannon at you, Lord
It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no senator's son, son
It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no fortunate one, no
Some folks are born, silver spoon in hand
Lord, don't they help themselves, y'all
But when the taxman comes to the door
Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale, yeah
It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no millionaire's son, no, no
It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no fortunate one, no
Some folks inherit star spangled eyes
they send you down to war, Lord
And when you ask 'em, "How much should we give?"
they only answer "More! More! More!", y'all
It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no military son, son
It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no fortunate one, one
It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no fortunate one, no, no, no
It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no fortunate son, no, no, no

Norma Jeane
02:42
|
|||
It's been a week now since I last kissed you
Your touch abandoned my skin
Now I can walk the streets again
And I'm sure you'll forget that night
Or the fucked up things we talked
But I won't mind anymore
If your world it's not mine
I just wanted to lit that fire
That burns in every Norma Jeane
The candle burned out in a blow
Following the steps of idols
That died long ago
And I felt you closer but that's a lie
I was shooting clouds
While cutting all my shrouds
The strings to you
Were never there
We closed that door
Thins as the air
Like a flash
Like a kiss
But I won't mind anymore
If your world is not mine
But I won't mind anymore
I just wanna lit that fire
That burns in every Norma Jeane

No pasarán
03:02
|

What I see today?
All the fears and dangers haven't gone away
And I feel ashamed
For all the blood wasted making you this way
We live an illusion
Of false security
We live in the wolves den
The land of the 'free'
Our elders fought for a brighter life
And what have you done?
You let them pass
You forgot your past
The suffering, the fascism, the civil war
But we're still in trenches
Dressed with christmas lights
Our elders fought for a brighter life
And what have you done?
You let them pass
Every time this fuckers rise
We're looking to another side
So why are you surprised
To find that fascism rules your life
Don't let them rule your life
Every time I see myself
Wearing a shiny leash
And I can't complete
This words again
So sing with me
They shall not pass
They shall not pass
No pasarán

Walk away
03:25
|
|||
The black crows surround us
While paradise, paradise keeps falling down
Ended by grief
While no one, no one made a sound
The beauty we once had, have spanned it's life
Ashes in the wind
Full silence we fall for, as we give (in)
Fighting for a lie
Their lies
So this is the truth
That happens when the life runs out of youth
And goes without a sigh
I can't follow through hitting against a brick wall
Running from you
From memories and sick calls
They played with our heads
And as it grows, there's too much to be said
But you closed your eyes, see through a screen of pain
So this is the truth
That happens when the life runs out of youth
as innocence dies out and fades away
I can't follow through hitting against a brick wall
Running from you
From memories and sick calls
