Love And Nihilism
04:40
|
|||
This world is dead and misled
And we’re truly alone
Tonight may be the end
When we jump off our throne
When we jump off our throne
Let us light all things up
Smile and don’t give a damn
We’re so close to the edge
Just to feel real again
Just to feel real again
Love and nihilism
This is our religion
Flirting with suicide
Prooving we’re alive
Love and nihilism
This is our religion
Flirting with suicide
Prooving we’re alive

Tear Down My Prison
03:27
|
|||
Build my wall up each day with
All the feelings I hate and
You never made me tear it down
Cause my demons they feel save
Deep down here in my grave
I wish that you could pull me out
So just
Give me a reason
To tear down my prison
Not to hide in a haze
With the feelings I hate
Please give me a reason
To tear down my prison
Not to hide in a haze
With the feelings I hate
I’m sick of pretending
And I’m broken from bending
Just another layer on my wall
You’re rejected by my mind
You are locked out without insight
As long as you can’t touch my soul
Give me a reason
To tear down my prison
Not to hide in a haze
With the feelings I hate
Please give me a reason
To tear down my prison
Not to hide in a haze
With the feelings I hate
Give me a reason
Just one!
Just give me one reason
Build my wall up each day just
Hiding myself away and
All my secrets burn like fire deep down inside my heart
Down
Get Down!
Down
Get Down!
Just one
Just one
Just one
Just give me one reason!

Faded
03:22
|
|||
Oxygen and dust
And we call it a body
Chaos gets form
And we call this a life
Recomposed just
From uncountable atoms
Out of the flames
Born from the fire
Faded
Like Stardust
Faded
But willing to shine
We’re faded
Like stardust
Faded
But willing to shine
Letters and words
And we call it our wisdom
Conditioning and drill
And we call it design
Recomposed just
From a tiny tiny vision
Out of the flames
Of humankind
Everything else is a lie
Everything else is a lie
Faded
Like Stardust
Faded
But willing to shine
We’re faded
Like Stardust
Faded
But willing to shine

Rush
04:03
|
|||
Streamin, postin, watchin
Through filters against the disgusting
You keep on constantly askin
For more attention your askin
Stalkers and haters like your poses
You know how to smile like a pro
No off time allowed in your show
With every post your fame grows, you
Rush
Until you break
Rush
Until you drive insane
Rush
Until you’re numb
Rush
Until you feel again
Chasin, sharin, huntin
For all the things so stunning
You keep on constantly running
Just from yourself you re runnin
Your dreams are trapped behind glass
The satisfaction never lasts
Do you feel alone when it’s dark?
Got no feeling at all, you’re heart’s hard
It’s because you
Rush
Until you break
Rush
Until you drive insane
Rush
Until you’re numb
Rush
Until you feel again

Iron Strings
04:11
|
|||
So all alone
just chased by a shadow that I became
I must escape and leave no remains
I will never come back again
My shattered heart
Will never mend, nothing would ever be the same
I must cut the iron strings
That play the melody of your name
We are hard
We are grey
See our love
Slowly fading away
Seek a path
Seems in vain
Tied together
By the weight of our pain
All is lost
And everything falls apart
I have to cut myself loose
Cause everything’s lost
Now everything’s lost
We are cold
We are strained
And every breathe
Has a bitterous taste
Open eyes
No more lies
It’s hard to bear
What reality is like
Choose to walk
A thin line
Looking for answers
That we could never find
Now I’m down
On my knees
We were holding on too long
To this tragedy

Never Fail
04:36
|
|||
We can never fail
Our worlds ain’t real
Our worlds ain’t real
No, we can never fail
We’re lost in here
We’re lost in here
I think I have lost myself
And I know you’re afraid
We head back home
But it’s too far away
Can’t run, we are just crawling
Tell me, where are we now?
Just our imagination
It’s our way out
We can never fail
We can never fail
We’re lost in here
We can never fail
We can never fail
We’re lost in here
I know we won’t surrender
We are safe here now
This world’s our own world
It won’t let us down
Let me show you all the
Things we used to play
This is our very own
Reality
This is our own reality
This is our own reality
This is our own reality
This is our own reality
I know you’re afraid
We’re so far away
We can never fail
We’re so far away
We can never fail
We can never fail
We’re lost in here
We can never fail
We can never fail
We’re lost in here

Slick fingers
No Faces
Bare figures
Flash painted
Invasion
Liberation
Carnal mayhem
Long live the flesh
I want you to get closer
I want you to get closer
Long live the flesh
I want you to get closer
I want you to get closer
This place is a war zone
This place is a war zone
ZONE
Warzone
ZONE
Warzone
Can feel your
Limbs opened
Skin stretched taut
And swollen
Body deployed
Body broken
For this moment
Long live the flesh
I want you to get closer
I want you to get closer
Long live the flesh
I want you to get closer
I want you to get closer

Devil
04:03
|
|||
Something’s creeping in me
And its bleeding, and its bleeding into my dreams
Pitch black honey and peachy keen
Something calls from within
And its feeding, and its feeding my favorite sins
Gaining control inside of me
I think there’s a flaw in my code
This voice won’t leave me all alone
So would you safe me?
Devastate me?
Or leave me slain?
Or leave me slain?
I feel you creeping within
You’re the devil, you’re the devil under my skin!
You’re the one who’s leading me
I’m under your spell
You keep me under your spell
And I’m under your spell
Your body helps me to forget
I’m under your spell
You keep me under your spell
And I’m under your spell
So calm me down with some caress
Something’s creeping within
There’s a devil, it’s a devil under my skin
Spellbound by a thousand teeth
I feel that monster within
And it’s dragging, it’s dragging me down with a grin
Winning control all over of me
You would not safe me!
You devastate me!
And leave me slain!
And leave me slain!
I feel you creeping within
You’re the devil, you’re the devil under my skin!
You’re the one who’s leading me
I’m under your spell
You keep me under your spell
And I’m under your spell
Your body helps me to forget
I’m under your spell
You keep me under your spell
And I’m under your spell
But no longer if I’m dead

Down Low
03:42
|
|||
If i could go back in time, now, what would I say to you
The you that you were, without scars and with an open view
I would forgive but won’t prevent you from the way you’ll go
I know this road will lead down low
You’ll be running on a path full of dirt
You’ll be running, running away
Each road you’re turning leads you to the end of the world
And you won’t stop just until you escape
You’ll be running on a path full of dirt
You’ll be running, running away
Each road you’re turning leads you to the end of the world
And you won’t stop just until you escape
And your heart will never know anything else but the chase
You’ll gotta leave everything behind that stands in your way
You’d know they wouldn’t be, they wouldn’t be friends like they say
You’ll walk the roads that lead away
I wish I’d be there so could you could feel safe
And I wish I’d be there so could you could feel safe
You’ll be running, running away
Running away
You’ll be running on a path full of dirt
You’ll be running, running away
Each road you’re turning leads you to the end of the world
You won’t stop just until you escape

Tenthousand Likes
Dopamine rise
Exhibit each and every thing
Except the little self
Tenthousand smiles
Facial disguise
Exhibit each and everything
Except the little self
I know you want me
Your psychocandy!
I know you want me,
Your psychocandy!
You’re already fed up
But you’ll want me so much
I make you feel better
Just nice and lush
I’m your dose of attention
A cure for all the scum
I make you feel loved
Make you numb
Tenthousand times
Selling the lies
You have shown them everything
Except your little self
Tenthousand eyes
Dopamine high
You have shown them everything
except your little self
