Hey, moron
you stare like you've never seen the man
Turn around your back and forget it all
Go now and never show your face again
Where is your smile
I wish you'd go to Mars or win a prize
rather than to see your face again
Hey, soldier
you make believe you'd save us all
with your gun and mustaches and your smile
your pretty smile I won't forget

Hindrance
04:48
|
|||
You took all the space
you've crept to my face
you wanted to make it stronger
You're pointing your finger
Never stand it
You're all a lie
say goodbye!
Remove your hindrance
You never stand back from the line
Stay away from the wall
You took a place you don't belong
Get out
Remove your hindrance

A way out
04:05
|

Dripples in the stomach
Verify the story
it's a lie
Shut the door behind you
The wind will blow out the candles out tonight
Bite the hand that feeds you
It's a vice you'll never put a aside
The more you take for granted
The the you realize what fool you are
Waking up in cold sweat
Emerging from a dream you don't belong
The cliff you're standing on
Only meets that echo of your soul
Seek a way out

Kill the king
04:58
|
|||
I was stuck in a mid-air flight
The air in the room was tight
No space to move about
Head was light and the legs were heavy
Just one among the millions many
The light has been shut down
Killing time It’s killing time
Crooked evidence,
the spider’s ruling
the ancients’s ruin
the gods are drooling
Never so intense,
the hand that’s squeezing
the ants are drowning
Pool is overwhelmed,
blood is pouring
time It’s killing time
It’s time to kill the king
Misery in human meek existence
Violence has never been the answer
when has ever been a peaceful turning
The glory of the castle slowly burning
The feasting human wrecks upon its ashes
Only for tonight let us rejoice!

Unbridgeable distances
07:48
|
|||
To turn off the lights is easy
To shut down the pain is consequential
Vivid memories that contribute to exacerbate the lonliness
Instictively abusing of nostalgia
Sporadic episodes of gentleness
Only put the finger in the plague
A delicate sensation of abandonment
That leaves us wreacked and spoiled inside this nothingness
Trembling like feathers in the wind
A vain attempt at dragging on the pain
Silencing the shame inside our chests
No relief
Leave us stranded in this selfish shell of solitude
United by these unbridgeable distances!
