Fake 00:39

I'll be polite I won't think twice Death to us all I'm out of control All fake as fuck Ain’t got no plan I'm going to get so fucking banned I'm so astray Come here, come and play I'm not a coward Come on make my day We’re coming for you

Snake Eyes 05:05
lyrics
buy track
Crow storm covers the sky A black cloud of hope nearby Through city lights and passing nights Aiding you in every fight Pull the rag from my mouth Let me speak my mind Your time is up You failed this time I'm ignorant and pretty stupid Believing people are kind and giving You better watch out or you'll get stabbed in the back Crow storm covers the sky In every fight Through city lights Aiding you in every fight Tear down the walls Smash every brick, smash it We will fight for our freedom We will fight for our lives It's not a cleaver disguise to hide behind those empty lies Tear down the walls Smash every brick, fucking smash it We will fight for our freedom We will fight for our lives I hear them empty cries behind your snake eyes Attack, attack, fight back, fight back No cracked skulls or broken necks But shaping minds and sharing breath You should smell your breath My hands are just as clean as yesterday But I'm willing to put them in the dirt for a better day Don't take a step back, we've got a path to follow Fight, fight, fight For the lost and forgotten Bite, bite, bite Through their hollow skin Kill, kill, kill The thought of being nothing Poke out their snake eyes We forgot some pieces of the puzzle and someday we'll be left alone Words of the past, no painted mind Empty windows, no curtains, no frame A blank face, no expression at all A single tear is running down her cheek

Think 03:44
lyrics
buy track
I see a girl without her mother and a boy without a hand to hold I see a lost and forgotten father and a mother begging in the cold I've got a confession to make Every night I go to bed along with heartache I can't rest with fears, can't rest in tears Would I save a life if I killed myself? Could I trade my spine so you can live instead? You can have my tongue so you can speak your mind No damage done, you're the forgotten one Seven billion people in this world Someone is bound to be left alone Think about everything that makes you happy Then wash it all away If you think you'll drown in your tears Remember the ones with a thousand fears Waking up with death on their breath Wondering how much time they've got left You know nothing about suffering It fucking breaks my heart Decisions placing people further apart With such small hands yet bigger fists Would you care to put your name on the deathlist? Black breath of death is haunting these streets I know this cause I know you're just like me You know nothing about real pain If you feel sorry for yourself you're just insane I still can't sleep I’m having these terrible fucking dreams I used to look up to the sky and wonder about our place in the stars Now I just look down and I worry about our place in the dirt Let me breeze for a while so I can dry my eyes

Fed Up 02:56
lyrics
buy track
Here we go again This is something I have to defend I can't tell you how to be Can't tell you how to see Can't tell you how to open your eyes You can't tell me how to be Can't tell me how to feel You force-feed your belief There is a voice in my head Inferior There is a voice in my head Superior Statements in my mind Fed up, fed up Clean up, clean up You can't cage your feelings because all the houses look the same to me, to you What the hell are we gonna do to prove that we're just furnished different? We all start with an empty mind that you have to decorate yourself Fuck you I won't go through this for you again I can't comprehend your neglectful hands When you hear this, hahaha fuck you You don't know what people go through And the same graceful wind that carried your rights as a human being Has now turned into a storm This is judgement in its truest form

Virus 03:35
lyrics

We are not the kings and queens of this planet Turn up the noise and pretend you can't hear it Screams of pain and agony Gentility destroying humanity It's a virus Who will die first? It's a virus Feed the crisis We are the plague of the world The outbreak that never should have occurred This is insane We're still living the same way We are the tics in the wheat and winter is coming to freeze us all to death We are not the kings and queens We are the virus that bites with hollow teeth We tear our mother earth to pieces Stealing her every breath Burn the ladders, burn them all down There is no chance of climbing up again Save the children or save yourself? No one will hear your cry for help There is no point There is no fucking use We've got nothing to lose We're all dead Burn the ladders, burn them all down There is no chance of climbing up again We are the haystacks of the earth If you set one on fire we're all gonna burn We are the virus that bites with hollow teeth Burn the ladders, burn them all down We are not the kings and queens We are the virus that bites with hollow teeth

She Will Kill You 04:57
lyrics
buy track
Do not perform the deeds that makes you hide behind excuses For lazy pigs the ground is always frozen The desk is a dangerous place to view the world from You close your eyes for all that That you don't like Disguise your face in a million ways You end up alone in this nightmare How did we get here? The end is near I can't sort this out on my own It's either under or above me Can you hear me not so clearly? I know we're far too late The clock is still ticking on the bomb I've got with me Our heads are in the clouds and deep down in the dirt She will kill you In one way or another She will kill you Let's die together Everything burns, everything ends My garbage can is overfull but I don't care, I'll have another one The air is poison and the water is sick, I am so sick A poor man lack much A greedy man fucked this up I disagree with you about what you say But I swear on my life I will defend your right to say it

Mad World 03:54
lyrics

Bla bla bla bla bla bla, typie, typie shut up Are you proud to be a keyboard warrior? It doesn’t matter what you yell at your screen You fucking hypocrite don't you know? It's a mad world we live in Stick around there’s more to come All our problems will be left undone You fuck, don't think you're making a difference You are what's wrong with this world You use your words as a discount headline Just because you put icing on your shitcake Doesn’t make it taste better at all Writing fancy words to pretend that you give a fuck is even worse than doing nothing at all It’s a fraud of common sense It's the embezzlement between the bad and the even worse I'm so tired of reading all this nonsense You're a hero alright Mad world, it's a fucking sad world Sad world, it's a fucking mad world Close the curtains you're not fooling anyone You use a shield to fend the world outside your comfort zone What if I tell you that your shield is all see-trough? It's a sad world we live in You hide the truth behind your false commitments There is still more to come You’ll never sleep alone You fuck, you don’t do shit That's it, you're done, shut up, score none Are you proud to be a keyboard soldier? It doesn’t matter what you yell at your screen You are what's wrong with this world Shut your mouth you piece of shit I hate your stench, you reek of it You hypocrite, you selfish prick Do something don't sit and bitch Damn

Ruined 04:19
lyrics
buy track
How do we tell our story? Did we live for pride and glory? I was raised to never tell lies We watched our planet die All we care about is profit Novice leaders with gold in their pockets People are fighting, desperately trying to keep their kids from dying Empty spoons They live their life in a cocoon Do we have the strength to fight back or do we wait for the world to turn black? I was raised to never tell lies Tell me how the world turned blind No pity for a meagre man We only want our accounts to grow How do we tell our story? That the end was mandatory Rich men made the poor man poorer The upper class own reign of terror How do you tell our story? Poverty’s own hollow quarry You can't simulate honest freedom No promises can stop our bleeding Can you smell the lies through their sickly bribes? Twisting hungry eyes, such a disgusting disguise Money is like manure, of no point if not distributed If you are too full of crap you’ll start to stink We will never be free Politics is the art of preventing people from interfering in what concerns them The waves are too high This ship is clearly sinking No anchor can keep us in place There is no waiting out this storm We need a better boat to keep us floating Things are only getting worse The people we adore have got their hands against the door It's time for the uproar Full scale civil war

Dirty Old Town 03:24
lyrics
buy track
Okay so you like it here? In this town you've got nothing to fear Just the occasional destroying of lives We all live on the edge of the knife Desperate people doing desperate things When that happens nobody wins When everything is falling apart it's too late to revive our broken hearts My dirty old town Where you at? My dirty old town You're as blind as a bat It's the same thing in the next town and the next and the next and the next town This wicked silence is making me ill We can't pretend that time stands still When distance becomes clear When our saying is all that you hear When distance becomes clear We've been asleep for years With worn words our voices louden the whispers Dense as fuck, we will get unstuck No such thing as bad luck can keep us from you A hurricane written in our name will put you all to shame This is the end of the game

Take Cover 02:48
lyrics

Think back to the start Did you have a chance before it all fell apart? Bones to the ground Lost and never found In a place where innocence can't hide How fucked up are you? How do you get by? Take cover, here comes another Is your music that bad you gotta steal from others? It makes me sick We made this shit brick by brick Take cover, here comes another Is your music that bad you gotta steal from others? Brick by brick This makes me sick We don't give in to shit like that you fucking rat, you'll fall flat Keep lying, keep dreaming I’m losing the feeling This right here, we've made that There are no such things as shortcuts Keep lying, keep dreaming I'm never losing this feeling Keep lying, keep dreaming I'm losing this

Everyday Collapse 04:42
lyrics
buy track
A world in pieces The death toll increases We’re all condemned to death Humanity’s last breath This is the start of an everyday collapse No way to turn off the taps We are way too deep in this shit Did you have nothing to do with it? Everyday collapse No time lasts Pull your weight Don't open the gate To the end of the world Make your voice heard Does it matter what we say? Is this the end of days? Nothing is holding us back We ain’t gonna fall through the cracks We are the rational youth and we are hungry for the truth If this is everyday collapse at least we stand with an upright back Can we see the end of this disgusting trend? Day after day death shows his ugly face The generation before us, they really had a blast While we're standing on broken glass
