The Ocean
05:17
|

You aspire for freedom
Day by day
Every day is a mission
A mind astray
You reckon the days
Until you wanna just get rid of it
In so many ways
‘Til you could barely cope with
Ref.:
There is no god
Who can save you
From yourself
You better stop waiting
For someone else to decide
Your life is an ocean of
Possibilities
The burden of countless obligations
It's getting harder and harder
To remember the true feelings
But don't forget where you came from
This is the only thing that matters
When you must decide
Which part of you shatters
This is an ocean that swallows your chances
You are the only one who can get to surface

Circle of Dreams
05:23
|
|||
Chasing the story
That you have never heard
Till the end
Holding the hand
Until a better world
Rises from the sand
Dreamcircles of infinity
A conscious coma
Originate divinity
No free will, no triumph
Building ideals that never existed
Every dream becomes sick and twisted
Has the curtain lifted from my eyes
Or I am hearing imaginary cries
Ref.
Waking up
Just to walk
Eyes wide shut
To replace the old
I must obey my instinct
Telling me something is wrong
Real thoughts are extinct
I sleepwalk all along
I don’t need another leech in my brain
That sucks out my real self bit by bit
But searching for the answers alone is in the vain
It’s time to ascend from this pit

Masquerade
04:47
|
|||
It’s just another day
Same as the others
Staring at the display
As if it matters
Anyway
Attention whores pose everywhere
Wearing masks of fake smiles
While their minds play solitaire
On their brains’ trash piles
You can get out of reach as quick as the setting sun
Because you can never make things undone
But there is always somewhere to go if you shout
So raise your head and go beyond any doubt
Ref.:
Collective disguise
Designed for lust
It’s a masquerade of lies
Depending on others
Just approval matters
It’s a masquerade of life
Ladies and gentlemen
Untag me from your dreams
Let me be real!
Let me feel something
Forget the mad ideal
You want me to become
And see my soul with #nofilter

Hymn for the Faceless
05:59
|
|||
Selling our souls to a new god
Becoming the vassals of faceless lords
Telling ourselves that every choice we make is our own
But we are just waiting for someone to think for us
Ref:
So come!
Be the member of the faceless many!
Come!
You’re alive if you have posted it already!
Feel!
The solitude of unimportance!
Kneel!
To avoid insignificance!
We upload soul mirrors into the cloud
To receive a little recognition
But we just meld into the crowd
Even more by seeking attention
Attention is the new oil
We burn with the brightest fire
The crowd is the fertile soil
For our most precious desire
That we were always one
Victims of our own illusions
Ref2:
To feel!
That we are something unique
Feel!
That we can protect the weak!
Try!
To create what has never made before!
Die!
And wash our true meaning ashore!
Ref:
So come!
Be the member of the faceless many!
Come!
You’re alive if you have posted it already!
Feel!
The solitude of unimportance!
Kneel!
To avoid insignificance!

The Uncanny Valley
05:54
|
|||
Persecuted by my imagination
With an invisible burden on my chest
I hear my own heart’s vibration
That prevents my mind from laying to rest
It’s time to liberate my senses
To perceive what’s real
The chain of consequences
Makes my choices a big deal
Ref.:
We are so many but so alone
We forgot how to listen
Still, we sit on our throne
Ignoring how our fake smiles glisten
Ignoring how our fake smiles glisten
Not knowing how much we don’t understand
Reproduce and recreate
Reproduce and recreate
Man never creates anything new
Only the masses!
Near humanity is the utmost inhumanity
Bionic reactions to real feelings
Twisting ourselves by testing our sanity
By creating mechanical frail beings
Reproduce and recreate
Reproduce and recreate
Man never creates anything new
Only the masses
Automatons replace the living
With calculated efficiency
For they have no misgiving
Only soul deficiency
Ref.:
We are so many but so alone
We forgot how to listen
Still, we sit on our throne
Ignoring how our fake smiles glisten

Elevated
04:42
|
|||
All my attempts have failed
To disconnect myself from this world
I count the days till I can be unburdened
So I can clean away the dirt
Don't tell yourself you're alone
Just look around before you atone
Are you elevated?
Or just frustrated?
But this is a bullshit and you know that
You just want to get some attention
Nobody can cheat death
It's your only chance for redemption
Don't tell yourself you're alone
Just look around before you atone
Are you elevated?
Or just frustrated?
I break myself away from this world
Don't tell yourself you're alone
Just look around before you atone
Are you elevated?
Or just frustrated?

Nullified
04:16
|
|||
Under the last rays of the desert sun
Above the highest peaks of the mountains
We born and we die
Starting and ending from the zodiac
From ashes to dust till the end
Trying to break the cycle
Aspiring for a meaning
Following our desires
Before reaching the end
We are always nullified
Hypnotize yourself to believe instead of thinking
And look for random quotes to drive your life
Trying to break the cycle
Aspiring for a meaning
Following our desires
Before reaching the end

Mechanical Gods
07:09
|
|||
Dare to venture into the darkness?
It’s time to start the harvest
To improve the statistics
With perfected logistics
Company policy is the new Bible
Costumer service regulations
Have replaced solidarity
Don’t be yourself so
"We can solve your problems of liquidity"
Ref.
If you forget how to love yourself
You are already lost
And become just food
For the mechanical gods
No need for sympathy
Forget your empathy
For the weak and the fallen
Dreams long - forgotten
Self-recognition is salvation
Blind belief is damnation
It's time to start living a life
Worth being remembered!
Ref.
If you forget how to love yourself
You are already lost
And become just food
For the mechanical gods
It's time to set things right
So keep your head up high
Don't let them take your soul
'Cos we are all on our own
