Head against the wall.
Completely lose control over my body and over reality.
Things I thought were real: you see them a different way.
Harsch dissonance that turns my life into a nightmare.
Your reasoning is full of contradictions.
You push me to depression with your accusive questions.
Good intentions form the base of my nature I dive to the deep cold water to save her.
Feelings: I take them off like clothes.
Standing naked all alone.

The Silent Side Of Me
02:29

You waited too long for the silent side of me to talk.
The words came out to the surface won't help us out in the way you thought.
Back then I used to do everything I could to ease the burden of my guilt.
I've might not have tried my bet to hold on to you.
Seconds stretching out.
Let's get things straight.
I shouln't get so uptight if you judge the intentions that I have.
Should be grateful for your intentions to clear the haze from my head.
But I made a deal with myself when we were last talking on the phone.
That I won't let former poor lifechoices pull me back from moving on.
I know I know I know.
I must have fucked up.
So pull the pin and throw it back.
So pull the pin and throw it back.

Blindfold

All the values you bragged about.
All the clichés you've been screeming out.
You're nothing but an empty book with a witty title and an engaging look.
With the promise of you never letting me down.
I followed you safe and sound.
But what you have left in the store for me has taken the blindfold off of me.
The memories we shared are broken glass inside my chest.
It hurts so bad but I'D do everything just to make them last.
Hey!
This is what I see:
Fuck you!
You're nothing to me!

Stereo

You extend your pretty self.
With all your little things on every shelves.
As cupboards rise the boxes go.
Turn the volume up on your stereo.
The ceiling is tall it bothers me a little bit.
Well it ain't gonna change so we better get used to this.
If we stare maybe it lowers down.
If we watch together it may lower down.
Just relax and take it slow.
And turn the volumeup on your stereo.

Humble Rage
02:30

First-rate at justifying a wicked mind.
Keep on the mask that keeps you blind.
We set the trend.
The protocol.
The guidelines that we’re standing for.
We set our spot where from we judge one another.
If you don’t fit the standards then you’re worthless brother.
We forgot our actual size and take more than we need.
While others are struggling to eat.
What you gonna do?
Hey if you use less straws it’s gonna be fantastic.
Our drinking water is full of microplastic.
We’re told that we can make the world a better place.
But our fast fashion clothes are fucking made by slaves.
Have you ever thought about your standard of living.
While we take everything we’re too scared of giving.
Your mindset is a product of mass-production.
Wake up: you’re a part of the problem
What you gonna do?
Prove yourself that you’re more than this!

Disconnect
02:36

There must be a black hole between my mouth and your ears.
The message can't screape through you don't get anything I say.
Your world is so far from reality that it makes me understand why we don't fight and yell.
At least you could say that I'm too full on.
And I would leave you alone.
At least you could say that I'm too full on.
But you never change.
You fell for the man you wanted me to be.
I'm just a fucked up kid don't know what steps to take.
How could I ever find comfort if i build my love on my deepest fear.
You shouldn't have turned me down.

Signals

Poison running through my veins.
Keep me up through all these years.
Ripped my skin and let my rage devastate my social cage.
In this life I'm so afraid.
I need to boost my mental state.
Keep the pace fucking tight and fast.
I can't slow down I can't have rest.
All connections are encrypted between us.
I tend to feel out of my place.
Loneliness in a crowded place.
When I go out to the show my mind dissolves into a flow.
These signals travel through time.
On a quest for a heart like me.
IF YOU DETECT THE SOUND:
SEND BACK YOUR LOVE TO ME
