Slow Burn

it happened again - i am trapped inside in my head
where the voices that i hear are both - deafening and quiet
both bright as day and dark as the night
what’s supposed to be a lot of fun was a massive waste of time
now i’m down on my knees
begging for forgiveness and a place to feel free
wish me luck i’m all on my own
but i keep swinging and swinging until i get home
i tried and i tried and i gave it my best
got no more moves to make, no words left unsaid
where do you go when you got nowhere to turn
i’m all out of touch - all the brigdes are burned
their mouths are moving but i hear no sound
i wanna smile, but can’t stop to frown
trying to escape but there’s no way out
it’s survival of the fittest, there’s no doubt
now i’m down on my knees
begging for forgiveness and a place to feel free
wish me luck i’m all on my own
but i keep swinging and swinging until i find my home
this world turns too fast, that much is true
i got no love for myself, i got no love for you
i tried and i tried and i gave it my best
got no more moves to make, no words left unsaid
where do you go when you got nowhere to turn
i’m all out of touch - all the brigdes are burned

Quick 2 Judge

counting down the days until it’s all said and done
when the dust is settled you know the right from the wrong
you spilled your guts now they’re right on the floor
their goodwill above you like damocles‘ sword
no room for failure - no room for you
stray from the path and there’s nothing you can do
acting like they never did nothing at all
and now the guilty stand to watch you fall
you got nothing to say but still talk behind our backs
a conscious and spine is what you lack
so quick to judge they’re not like us
no friends, no allies - don’t know how to trust
like the shepherd and his flock of sheep
but still the fools bite the hand that feeds
we all make mistakes - that’s what it is
never been different - the weak can never forgive
they never did better, they’re also flawed
but still the guilty stand to watch you fall
you got nothing to say but talk behind our backs
a conscious and spine is what you lack

Play Stupid Games...
02:05

you keep running your mouth like you know the deal
but all you really do is copy and steal
your existence is shallow and easy to see through
real recognize real but I just can’t see you
you’re not an equal you act like a child
talk a lot shit, spread a lot of lies
you even lie to yourself, you hide your real face
nothing of interest just a waste of space
and see how you miss me
your only goal is attention, just want to be seen
cowardly tactics to boost your self esteem
play stupid games - win stupid prizes
your bullshit world ain’t nothing but self righteous
you pretend to be a saint, in fact you‘re just a rat
keep acting this way and see what you get

Mirror Talks

trying to push forward and regain control
to fix a situation that you’ve been in before
take a good look in the mirror and see what you’ve got
a pathetic human being who’s about to give up
feel the pressure crushing down
it’s on you so heavy lies the crown
you’re not alone can you see me
nothing worth having comes easy
take the first step and make no excuses
eat or be eaten, it’s your fight to chose
gotta push through the walls of doubt
you’re the only person you can let down
feel the pressure crushing down
it’s on you so heavy lies the crown
you’re not alone can you see me
nothing worth having comes easy
It’s on you to face and overcome your fears
I know deep inside you got the will to perservere
real friends will be with you, do you hear me
but still nothing in this world worth having comes easy
face the truth
gotta push through
to live free
nothing worth having comes easy

No Need For Absolution
03:20

a boy on the verge of being a man
with the weight of world crushing down
nothing’s gonna stop him except
his thoughts in which he seems to drown
bothered just with himself - alone
no thoughts wasted on what’s to come
i’m sorry for the things i’ve done
i know that i did you wrong
you always meant a lot to me
but i wasn’t in the place to see
to see the pain i caused
i was far too lost
it sure took some time
before i saw my crimes
i wasn’t there for you as much as i could have
as much as I should have
too cool to care
i hid inside and blocked you out of my mind
i could barely care for myself, so i could’nt care for you
never asking how you felt is my biggest regret
now you’re doing fine and that’s all what counts.
i don’t want no absolution, i just don’t want to pull you down
