Solitude 05:40
Oh mine I'm in exile Escaped from genocide They came and stole our sight I've found the one they couldn't find They can't cut off my eyes How could I've known that my journey from the unbearable will end in empty space? My face is freezing, my faith is leaving I can't live in this barren place Cure me out of solitude I thought it could be different, but its all the same There's nothing left to lose now Except for the shame that I used to gain Fate is a fake my friend Paper walled prison cell Can't break out this living hell I've found the key all by myself And took my own first breath How could I've known that my journey from the unbearable will end in empty space? My face is freezing, my faith is leaving I can't live in this barren place Cure me out of solitude I thought it could be different, but its all the same There's nothing left to lose now Except for the shame that I used to gain

Look at the blinded eye of your reflection In which your wounded soul claims a body Thousands of thoughts wait for resolution Was it a coincidence or was it intended? You muse all alone on the circumstances The things that used to force you directives There's a cage in your hand, but the sky in the other Decide upon where's your past and your future Is it worth tearing a healing wound open? Diving in the swamp that you're always drawn in Are these feelings yours, or just the ones you took for yourself? Please try and leave self-pity 'cause it makes no sense Is it worth tearing a healing wound open? Diving in the swamp that you're always drawn in Are these feelings yours, or just the ones you took for yourself? Please try and leave self-pity 'cause it makes no sense Your past is the shelter of your decisions The place you seek for the answers But its no more than a bunch of thoughts scraped to the flesh

You stand here just like me, but you think you're something different Who had to die to make you king? You just sit and put your empty smile on It's not hard, as you're a sculpture of yourself Captive of the strings You see yourself, but no one else can see you You can't let out a single drop of tear Don't be afraid, it's time to hang out yourself Don't you know the puppets never cry? Could you expect that anyone would ever animate you? What's outside the box if anything? It's just too hard to leave this place Too hard, as you're a sculpture of yourself Captive of the strings You see yourself, but no one else can see you You can't let out a single drop of tear Don't be afraid, it's time to hang out yourself Don't you know the puppets never cry?

What If 04:31
Life is a sequence of crossroads that won't come back If i'd turned another way i'd be someone else Past cannot be planned It's lost in a hole You can't save the damned Just try to save your soul You can't play god taking lives from doom Every act has to take place, no matter by whom Past cannot be planned It's lost in a hole You can't save the damned Just try to save your soul
6.
Wired to see just a segment You see the least important You blame the circumstances Can't you see yourself in the axis? Won't you percieve it's up to you? Won't you stop poisoning yourself with your ignorance? Conviction is an illusion A rope you could always hang on You let the doors shut behind you One thing that no one can undo Won't you percieve it's up to you? Won't you stop poisoning yourself with your incompetence?
7.
Frustrated 04:58
You're living your life like a fly in the web, like a lonely blink of an eye Never caught by a question about why you really came to life You dig in the past when your chances have passed to decide what you would become Instead of hanging on what you would've rather done, you better lived in the now I don't know why i've become different, it must be my sickness of honesty But i feel myself no more insufficient in preserving my own sanity Why're you so frustrated? What are you searching for? Why're you staying isolated? i'm not going to ask you, no more... You're trying to save yourself for tomorrow, an essential part of your day Everything worth buying today is another wrinkle on your face You dig in the soil where you're going to fall; buried and buried again I can't escape from the scream of your apathy; you better looked inside I don't know why i've become different, it must be my sickness of honesty But i feel myself no more insufficient in preserving my own sanity Why're you so frustrated? What are you searching for? Why're you staying isolated? i'm not going to ask you, no more...

Sometimes it seems to be The puzzle's taking shape Dead forms are joining together Just to show me what they mean Tossing and turning they Don't let me see my face In my comfort I'm breaking the mirror And paint my portrait This one wouldn't change This one wouldn't leave me Then the canvas breaks My dancing shield's a blade That keeps on standing in my head It's a tube that sucks me out My overpempered mind And fills me with the mass of dry sobriety In my comfort I'm breaking the mirror And lay in my grave This one wouldn't change This one wouldn't leave me Disillusion, lack of confidence Don't know who to trust Don't know how to trust I fall on my knees, I fall back and see The sky that has never been The ground starts to shake, this scene was a fake But now I see that its all clear Let me see my face Show me what is real Disillusion, lack of confidence Don't know who to trust Don't know how to trust I fall on my knees, I fall back and see The sky that has never been The ground starts to shake, this scene was a fake But now I see that its all clear
