Wasted
05:06
|
|||
you're all just strangers
you know you can't change us
cause we're willing to suffer
you should know: you can't stop us
one and one equals two
in a standard calculation
but both of us are stronger than you
so consider us being your salvation
with the spice of malice
from the bottom of our crippled hearts
we just want to see what happens
when we tear the world apart
we don't know where we'll go
we don't know who we are
but we know one thing:
we'll tear this fucking world apart
we watch and flout, we distance and back out
we create and destroy, we waste and enjoy
we cross all the lines, we breed the strife
we fall far behind, we waste our lives
we're just waiting for the world coming to an end
we're just waiting for our lives coming to an end
we're just waiting for the world coming to an end
we're just waiting for our lives coming to an end

Discard Hope
04:27
|
|||
every step I make
could be one step too much in the end
could be this one step ...
that leads me right into the abyss
I lost my faith
I lost my love
I discard hope
I fall apart
I can't remember what it's like to love
I just remember what it's like to fall apart
I can't remember what it's like to love
I'll just remain here in the dark
you say the world, it is so bright
but I can't see, I can't see
I'll just remain here in the dark
and I bleed, and I bleed
I lost my faith
I lost my love
I discard hope
I fall apart
I can't remember what it's like to love
I just remember what it's like to fall apart
I can't remember what it's like to love
I'll just remain here in the dark

Lack Of Answers
06:33
|
|||
we want to reverse the trend
and stop the recent descent
we want to have an answer
an answer to everything
we want to fill our nescience
with myths instead of answers
we want certainty
no place for unanswered questions
(we want certainty, so desperately)
why do we have to fill the void
with fictitious explanations?
why can't we enjoy our lives
before we know the meaning?
why do we have to fill our hearts
with dust and dirt, or love
why can't we enjoy our lives
before we know the meaning?
we need to reverse the trend
and stop the recent descent
we need to have an answer
an answer to everything
why do we have to have an answer?
it's just that sometimes
there is no answers
to the most important questions
why do we have to fill the void
with fictitious explanations?
why can't we enjoy our lives
before we know the meaning?
why do we have to fill our hearts
with dust and dirt, or love
why can't we enjoy our lives
before we know the meaning?
a need for certainty
so desperately
no need to find anything
we have to stop searching
standing on this brittle ground
all the answers, still to be found
standing here with uncertainty
where all the answers were supposed to be
why do we have to fill the void
with fictitious explanations?
why can't we enjoy our lives
before we know the meaning?
why do we have to fill our hearts
with dust and dirt, or love
why can't we enjoy our lives
before we know the meaning?

No Way Out
04:27
|
|||
you don't find a way out
no way out of this maze
you run and run
you just run away
and every time you turn around
you lose yourself again
the only thing you find is
yet another way to hurt yourself
you're so tired of fighting
you don't want to stay
I wish I could help you
but I'm too far away
you move in self-made circles
hunting the illusion of control
you think you leap the hurdles
while sinking deeper into this hole
you crave for change
you crave for light
for inner peace
to end these fights
you crave for strength
crave for control
for inner safety
to save your soul
you move in self-made circles
hunting the illusion of control
you think you leap the hurdles
while sinking deeper into this hole

Apathy
04:20
|
|||
I've done so many mistakes
I've learned so much from this shit
that I'm...
too afraid of further actions
too afraid of making mistakes again
too afraid of getting hurt again
too afraid to even feel again
but, anyhow
I need someone to care for
I need someone not to feel that useless
I need someone to understand me
I need someone to help me to survive
where do those, who forgot where they came from, go
when they go back to where they used to be?
where do those, who forgot where they came from, stay
when they are back again just where they started?
I'm the one that waves goodbye
to the past that's left behind
I'm the one that waves goodbye
from the bottom of his life
where do they go?
where do they stay?

Dysfunctional Paradise
04:55
|
|||
a frowning face behind a mask
a hundred questions no one wants to ask
a dark haze covers your conscious mind
what you want is yet to be defined
plain sight is the best place to hide
and while you hide I got my thoughts untied
so take my advice, say your last goodbyes
we have to leave this dysfunctional paradise
I feel silent cries
where our last hope dies
look into my eyes
- in this dysfunctional paradise
I see our demise
please take my advice
say your last goodbyes
- let's leave this dysfunctional paradise
I watch you while your last hope dies
as you realize your own demise
this truth is severe:
we're disposable here
indifference is about to rise
in this dystopian future in disguise
I feel silent cries
where our last hope dies
look into my eyes
- in this dysfunctional paradise
I see our demise
please take my advice
say your last goodbyes
- let's leave this dysfunctional paradise

Deadlock
03:56
|

I'd like to confess but I don't know how
I can not tell you what I feel
that means I can not begin to heal
and maybe I don't feel a thing
maybe I just imagine
something that's not there
it's rather just in my head
why should I speak out, why should I admit?
why should I pretend I still give a shit?
waiting, always waiting in vain
waiting, always waiting for being disappointed
waiting for you
waiting in vain
waiting for so long
I'm waiting again
and maybe I don't feel a thing
maybe I just imagine
something that's not there
it's rather just in my head
why should I speak out, why should I admit?
why should I pretend I still give a shit?
why should I go on?

Failed Again
03:29
|
|||
once I tried to be human
but something in me died
it seems I stopped caring
although I was so close
there's no carrying on
there's only denying
and I find myself all alone,
denying every further emotion
I can't stand what I've become
denying every carrying on
I hoped there'd be more than distress
but in the end, there's nothing left
I hoped my heart would stop beating
with every single breath I take
once I tried to be human
but something in me died
it seems I stopped caring
although I was so close
I failed
people are talking to me
and I remain
giving only one answer
I say:
"I don't care,
so please go away
leave me alone"

Put On Hold
04:19
|
|||
a hundred years in a wasted second
a hundred lives in a wasted day
now listen to what I have to say
and then carefully ignore it
this world is way too loud
this world is way too strange
this world is way too cold
I'd just like to put it on hold
my world is collapsing
I'd just like to put it on hold
to prevent it from getting smaller bit by bit
my life is collapsing
I'd just like to put it on hold
to prevent it from completely fading away
a hundred years in a wasted second
a hundred lives in a wasted day
now listen to what I have to say
and then carefully ignore it
this world is way too loud
this world is way too strange
this world is way too cold
I'd just like to put it on hold
what you call reality
must be a horrible disease ...
...what if there is no cure?

What's Left Of Me
06:04
|
|||
I do not want to hide
I just want to protect myself
from what you bear inside
I've got to remember to forget all those things
I see the world in a different way
seems like everything has gone astray
and all the good things have come to an end
I can't find the reason, it's hard to comprehend
back then I knew nothing
now I know less
this is the soundtrack
for a wasted life
now you hear
my most silent scream
I'm broken again
yes I'm broken again
your attempt to
fix me was in vain
your excuses don't
mean a shit to me
I see the world in a different way
seems like everything has gone astray
and all the good things have come to an end
I can't find the reason, it's hard to comprehend
and in this very minute, I see it might end
and in this very minute, I'm afraid it will end
and in this very minute, I feel it will end
and in this very minute, I know it will end
why don't you save what's left of me?
I'm just the shard of a broken identity
with every breath I take, my heart could stop beating
undamaged people will never see this beauty

All Things Must Pass
05:59
|
|||
forgetting names
forgetting faces
trying to wipe out
all my traces
forgetting years
forgetting decades
trying to wipe out
my remaining faith
volatile words
in a volatile world
where promises fade
and dreams always perish
where thoughts slowly wane
and hearts always dry out
everything's dissolving
in front of my eyes
all things must pass - and so do we

It pretty much sounds like this:
"Ba dum ts ba dum tsa ba dum ba
boo ba dum ba da ba dibi dibi doo."
...and that's just the chorus!
