lyrics

I roam among the people with destructive needs
Indeed, we meet in the anomic streets
Ruled by the darkest and the foulest greeds
Shake hands with the famished of modernity’s seeds
We breed without aims, more mouths to feed
Who’s hands bleed for this thoughtless deed
We would love to life to the fullest
Get educated, money, cars, be the people that now ruin us
And smother us in dirt, to leave unheard
The voices of my people who are free as the birds
But maybe I tell you all wrong and this conflict
Might just be the other way around, ya dig?
We turn our backs to the weak unstable
This fable goes on from cradle to cradle

Ever since the day of my birth I’ve neglected the worth
Of walking around on this earth
I’ve been locked in my head
Nothing makes me smile, nothing makes me sad
When I write and talk strange words slip through
Verbs and nouns, things I have to do
To finally cure this fever called life
As long as my head’s clear I think I’ll survive

Unconscious like the tombstones on my path
Making me realize that there’s not but death
Surrounding me – stalking my faith
But not letting me know why I’m here to wait
‘Till it finally strikes and drags me down
To a silent world for the living to be found
Yet only these demons playing in my head
Whispering my name, insane, I go mad

No this cannot be real, I must be asleep
The claws of madness can’t cut me this deep
I pinch myself but it’s already clear
That my visions of sanity have disappeared

Lying on the floor, locked up in my room
Can’t seem to move and all I feel is gloom
It wasn’t me but that won’t set me free
Blame it on absence of sanity
This night, next night, same night, every night
I pray for light but it’s already inside
Of me, like it’s meant to be
I’m mentally trapped by this entity
I’m losing this battle and I’ll fuck up my war
On the day that I’ll wake up you’ll see me no more

From the storm that I was remains but a draft
Who will survive and what will be left
From the storm that I was remains but a draft
Who will survive and what will be left
