Lost Generation
03:20
|

We are the lost generation
We carry words as bombs
There is no way to prosper
we are the foster kids of hope
We are the lost generation
a mistake of fate
Strip us from our passions
Divest us of any real choice,
Make art a fashion,
And gag this generation’s voice
Now tell us all to pursue our dreams , that this is our fate
To leave the fear behind, and that we can never hesitate
Oh my dear brethren, we are lost, we are so damn lost
I despise you, while I define all of you
I bring value to this land
You bring profit forcing every hand
I bring ethics
It’s not metric
It’s price less
We Are Priceless
I catch every spit on my face
And turn the other cheek

Master of All Kinds
02:52
|

|
A Thousand cries
Covered with one big Lie
Do you feel superior
A Master of all kinds
We claim to be running this land
But we only spread the plague
Of mass-murder by human hand
Forget that there are so much more at stake
Can you look them in the eye
before they’re crushed at production line
do you bother that they are slaughtered day by day
How will you justify your claim on their fate
With their ranks decimated at this rate
I see no difference, hand or paw, palm or claw
Compassion is a virtue, and not the one for show
There is no difference, hand or paw,
I Claim Justice for us all

Mending Wall
04:36
|

|
I have watched the ongoing decline of You and I
I felt that this life we had was heading to an
Inevitable end
As if the key you took,
The key to a colorful future
Of us, Of you, of us, of me
Has shut down the door forever
And i tried, I tried and tried
To force-open the door
But it was you
it was you who blocked that view
Like a mending wall you’ve been building
All summer long
I’ve seen it all before
My hand did not lay a single brick at all
You’re gone
And i am left with your wall
To dismantle
Destroy
and Take down, your wall
All Alone
and you moved on
straight to build another wall
For someone so special, so close
So lost to your cause
And i start to wonder
Where does all the brick and clay come from
The brick of your misfortune
The clay of your insecurity
Was it you, or was it me
Who started your first, goddamned wall
Like a mending wall you’ve been building
All summer long
I’ve seen it all before
My hand did not lay a single brick at all
You’re gone
And i am left with your wall
To dismantle
Destroy
and Take down, your wall
All Alone

Wash My Sins Away
04:13
|
|||
|
I tie my knot as carefully as I do my tie
A small step for a man, a great step for the whole family
I try to have some dignity, and force myself not to cry
A small step for a man, a great one towards unity
I reach out, as taught, for a blank piece of paper and write down the pros and just one con
I reach out, as taught, for blank check and write their names with a trembling font
I wash my sins away
My failure Brought to you by
I take the leap of faith
My smile was just a lie
I wash my sins away
In an honorable act
I take the leap of faith
And brace for impact
I’m shattered, broken between what I was supposed to be and what I really am
This Go-get-her is such a miserable bloke
If exposed to others, I calculate my excuses and I almost always start to choke
On my greed, on my haste, on the killing pace of progress
I reach out for the press; I see that I’m not an exception, that there is so much more to this distress
“Not a care in a world” is rather a “no-one- cares in this world” nowadays
And you, my dear, old misery, are such a caring mistress
My end is brought to you by
every time you turn a blind-eye

Emily
03:13
|
|||
|
I peek from that dark corner, there you are
in the light
You are at the reach of my hand
Yet you are such a foreign land
I reason with myself
I reason with my hunger
I reason with my reasons
it just keeps on getting harder
And everyday day I struggle to make to the night
And at night I keep on begging to see morning at last
I keep sending roses everyday
they all rot in your shade
Will you ever feel again
Will you love me Emily
I feel eyes, they’re all around me
Feeding lust from every move
Am I just their sinful trophy
What it is they have to prove?
And I taste their vulgar feelings
Feel their bitterness on my lips
And my heart is getting colder
every fucking single bit
And everyday day I struggle to make to the night
And at night I keep on begging to see morning at last
You send roses for me everyday
And they rot in my shade
Will I ever feel again
I can’t love you, Enemy

Long-Forgotten Monsters
02:59
|
|||
|
We shine brightly from the posters
Waving hands and forcing smiles
faces of long-forgotten monsters
Giving you your last rites
Preaching fear with words of wisdom
From the radio, web and screens
Playing gods within our kingdoms
Hiding every loathing scream,
In Our darkest day
Will you follow us blindly
We are heading straight to hell
And in Our darkest day
Will you follow us blindly
‘Cause god is gone and love has failed
Lead the mothers with their daughters
carrying children on their hands
Lead them all, straight to slaughter
Offer nothing but the end
Lead the Fathers with their sons
Carrying weapons in their hands
Trying hard to supply
our never-ending demand
And in Our darkest day
Will you follow us blindly
We are heading straight to hell
And in Our darkest day
Will you follow us blindly
‘Cause god is gone and love has failed
When the numbers will drop to nothing
And the walls will crumble in
We will look for what we lost
in the dust, diving in
We will choke from all the terror
that we produced to endure
That has eaten what we stood for
There is no one left to rule
