Void 03:32
I forgot how to be alive I regret all the time Spent walking into the dark Victim of my own crime We forgot how to be of use to ourselves we make loose Work for a life that we won't have We've lost a war against ourselves We've lost our breath and mind as well They've got nothing but time Spared here waiting, left into descent There's no hope in the lies 'Cause life is nothing other than a strife For the ones we ignore we need to compromise And now, you want respect So world can keep on its way And now I want the same for them! Try not to question your life It's in your mind to kill your heart and let you to comply Obey and reproduce the same old lies The world that you conduct follows your lines There's nothing more that you can do You just have to follow through
2.
As we stepped out into the night Your heart is full you scaped the life Of tied slaves to broken homes You walked away to never come again You would not carry all that weight You never did, you never cared For all I know You ran away, from your fears Left behind every tear You walked away, from yourself Put a gun against your head And I cannot believe all that you said The story is new, the story is old It keeps repeating on and on And what you said just kills me now Another war lost at it's dawn For what you think I am What makes me carry on, carry on For what you think it's right A step into the night, into the night
3.
What it is a century to you? The fire still burns Hot and bright it lives The ashes of what could have been The memory of the people who lost a fight The fire still burns in our hearts And in our streets This city will burn again We remember the time Everything was about to change We remember the time Everything was at stake What it is a century to you? The fire still burns Hot and bright it lives The rose will be lit again With the will and fight of the people For those who fell The fire still burns in our hearts And in our streets This city will burn (again)

Conclusion 03:07
We reach this status again Killed time and memory The path that we conclude You said the sky was the limit But underground I can't see it But yes, everything will remain the same Look at my eyes, think that I lied Here I'm mostly alive 'Cause I've left feelings aside And I can't tell this is not over And I don't think I can Go on and pretend That I feel the same Than million days aways And I don't think I can Go on and pretend That I never hated you It's too much of a view 'Cause you just tried harder to break me We start again, be aware of where we stand Everyone on it's side A little deeper into the night I can't wear you share of lies anymore A little deeper into the night I can't wear you share of lies Killed time and memory The path that we conclude You said the sky was mine Here I'm mostly alive I've left feelings aside And I can't tell this is not over Anymore

New Ways 02:28
Been through a lot of shit But you won't give me, you won't bring me more Got myself a new way of living things without remorse Keeping hypocrisy at bay That's your words and your presence Keeping your bullshit away Your words and your presence I've open myself to new ways, to new ways of living (I want to take things back) I've defied your rules and laws that were leading nowhere (You're living against yourself) It is for me to decide where I want to go next I'm never coming through your life I'm never coming through for you
6.
Narrow Views 02:39
This music always had my back It made me who I am, It is a part of me I've realized along the time Styles don't mean shit if the message isn't real And what I always criticized, now is part of me This narrow views I canonized are now gone I used to love bands I don't listen anymore 'Cause this is who I was and this is who I've become
7.
The Good War 02:35
It's not a game they're playing lightly In fact it's not a game at all Somebody is watching all the time No one should be there on their own And if you start feeling your handcuffs They soft the leash but keep the rope It starts with education Breed fodder for the nation Ignorant soldiers for the cause It started with creation God making Earth in ancient A nice invention for the dumb This is the only one, this is the only one This is the only war is worth the fight Tell me what it gets to be you Working to maintain status quo Tell me what's the cost of your life And what do you do instead of fight
8.
How did you dare to abandon us How did you get to be the first That left us here without a clue We never managed to fit in But our friendship was there for sure Whatever does that mean No one should ever have to watch a friend die No one should suffer the way you did But what the hell is there for us I often think about the last And If it could have gone otherwise Maybe you would have liked how things have changed But in the end you'll critize how after all we fell I'm being greedy about your suffering But the real loss is all things you had in life That travel we never did That neighborhood you always loved That music left unheard
9.
It is all over It's not my pride The one speaking here is my peace of mind You're not my friend anymore I swallowed all your shit and lies Now I want to close that door You've been trying to pull me away While throwing all the bricks at me So it's my fault anyway When all I've got left Is my mind My integrity starts to crumble Peace is a place I cannot find With all that we have been And all the thing we are It tears me apart that we won't be
