Lyrics:
what you heard of is the truth
poisonous, the stories you told
i let you go
to gain control

never get this one thing straight
emotions left unread
can’t see it, can’t feel it

it’s always worth it
spare myself from lies
it’s always worth it
to admit i’m right

let us think it’s growing out
distance keeps heating it up
help me, define it
i’m losing focus

far away,
please come back lift me up
help me, define it
painfully honest

attention - never payed
lonely and getting sick
can’t see it, can’t feel it

distract, nothing more to expect
you left me stabbed
with empty hands i’m left
painfully bereft

nothing more to expect
with empty hands i’m left

struck by a velvet feel
not as busy as i pretend to be
a flame that i have thought
could never lose its warmth

let us think it’s growing out
distance keeps heating it up
help me, define it
painfully honest

let us think it’s growing out
but distance keeps heating it up
help me, define it
i’m losing focus

no matter what i do pretend
caught in the act with empty hands
depression in silence
help me to fight it

far away
please come back, lift me up
help me define it
painfully honest

Lyrics:
yeah i’m using again, it takes all that i have
bold words from an addict
how can i pick myself up?
i’m past the breaking point and there is no way to stop - i’m giving in

this is a desperate cycle
the noose is closing in
vision disarray, i’m tired of failing to see clear

there’s no way of getting even with hell beneath my skin
pulling me in and in the blink of an eye i don’t feel anything

there’s no way of getting even with the taste of defeat
pulling me down from the gallow until my eyes turn opaque - eternal grey

desperate cycle
the noose is closing in
vision disarray, i’m tired of failing to see in the turmoil
losing friends, the only ones left are the spineless
so you’re starting out, you better get the fuck behind it

i’m the definition of a man that is never enough
i’m past the breaking point and there is no way to stop

Lyrics:

Et c'est l'odeur de l'enfer
Un peu de soufre et de douleur
Qui s’échappe et qui terni mon âme et ma couleur
je peux le sentir brûler tout mon corp
je veux la faire sortir faire d'elle mon erreur

j'ai croisé tant des démons différents
j'ai bravé tant de vagues et d'océans
Mais j’ai toujours ce monstre en moi qui dans le néant me crie

I am the Creature

Don't want to face it
I want it to break
Don't want to cope with my fear
Don't want to face it
I want it to break
Don't want to face this creature

This thing inside me is getting out of control
I've tried to hold it in but I can't anymore

I want it

Cause I waste away
Is this place for real ?
Is it the worst of me ?

You can see me through nocturnal eyes
But you won't get the best of me
I want it out

I need to get back my freedom
I'll fight against the whole kingdom
It's creeping into my system, feeding the pain
and I've lost my way home

All these lies only feed the pain

Cause I'm crawling in the dark
Everything we knew has fallen down
The night suppresses the light
Looking for a reason I won't find
And I turn into this creature

Don't want to face it
I want it to break
I don't want to cope with my fear
Don't want to face it
I want it to break
Don't want to face this creature

It's a world made of silence and of coal
I hear the calling and it shatters my soul
You and I ain't supposed to be real

I no longer feel
Cause you took everything

No way to ease the pain
Guided by fear

Lyrics:
I have no skin left to scratch cut off my head
the racing thoughts in my mind keep me awake
I am alone in the dark, I’m losing my heart
to the shadows, they tear me apart

The demons that keep me alive eat me up like a parasite

Fight the pain inside, through darkest nights
I won’t fear nothing at all, nothing at all
I will find the light beyond the darkness
So I fear nothing at all, nothing at all

I break the toxic cycle inside my head
It’s my own mind I’ll take the upper hand
With the strength of my own I’ll reclaim the throne
I found the courage to face the unknown

The demons that keep me alive, now they run and hide

Fight the pain inside, through darkest nights
I won’t fear nothing at all, nothing at all
I will find the light beyond the darkness
So I fear nothing at all, nothing at all

The demons that keep me alive
I clench my fists and carry on
Now they run and hide

Headfirst through the wall

I take on the challenge, conquer all fears
I adjust my mind, the shadows disappear
I leave nothing to chance, all doubts set aside
The route is the goal, a never ending -

Fight the pain inside, through darkest nights
I won’t fear nothing at all, nothing at all
I will find the light beyond the darkness
So I fear nothing at all, nothing at all

I don’t just want to live, I seek freedom and bliss
I will break out

Lyrics:
Becoming the lotus
Becoming the lotus

On my way to the sun
Driving my metamorphosis
Seeking safety but I cannot control this fear
Is what I was fed with
My mind on the edge always ready to

Letting go
Of everything I used to know
Cause I will give it all for you

Letting go
Of everything I used to know
Cause I will give it all for you

Becoming the Lotus
Controlled by others disbeliefs
I tried to sprout but the roots won’t go deep
Leaving everything behind
That’s putting weight onto my mind

Words like bullets keep on chasing me
Putting down holy crown
Only to make them see
That I’m worthy all by myself
Nothing can hurt me

Letting go
Of everything I used to know
Cause I will give it all for you
Dodging bullets to stay alive
Growing petals for my disguise
Dodging bullets to stay alive
Growing to the sun to find my paradise

Close your eyes
Trapped inside
The eye of the hurricane
Drawn from my mind
Under my shadows we hide
Gripping the vines
Trusting me blind
Giving up on the fight
Leave it behind
I’m Letting go

Of everything I used to know
Cause I will give it all for you

Dodging bullets to stay alive
Growing petals for my disguise
Dodging bullets to stay alive
Growing to the sun to find my paradise

Letting go
Of everything I used to know
Cause I will give it all for you
Dodging bullets to stay alive
Growing petals for my disguise
Dodging bullets to stay alive
Growing to the sun to find my paradise

Lyrics:
Wait for my body till it flatlines

Everything inside me is dead
You should avoid me, I'm a f*****g wreck
Let me feel the pain
To make me at least feel something

If I am cursed to not feel anything
I did never really get why I just never had no consciousness
and why I didn't perceive it
One hand on the ground
And the other one at the trigger
I live a f*****g curse
Let me feel pain, make me feel alive

Wait for my body till it flatlines
I give it up
And I feel so dead inside
Just wanna feel one thing
To feel my body as it flatlines
I give it up
And I feel so dead inside
I've given up, I've given up on this

Everything around me is dead
Turning around and lay my body to rest
Feel the increase of pain
As I increase the pace of the beating

Push me to my limits
As I pass control away
And just give me another minute
To watch my skin turn grey

All I see is red before my eyes roll back
and turn everything into this pitch dark black

Drag me down
Until I'm left alone in death
Let me feel my final breath
Hit on my body till I collapse

Hear the resonance of pain subdue
the rhythm of the pulse in my veins

Wait for my body till it flatlines
I give it up
And I feel so dead inside
Just wanna feel one thing
To feel my body as it flatlines
I give it up
And I feel so dead inside
I've given up, I've given up on this

Watch my body as it flatlines

Lyrics:
I’m on the way to the destination
This is my final mission
I don’t want anything
I’ll die with my ambitions

Don’t drag me under
There is no time to spare for you
Don’t stand in my way
My fist is breaching the surface

I don’t care what you say
I don’t mind what is right

Don’t drag me under (No time to spare)
Don’t stand in my way
My journey's just begun

No matter what happens to me
I’ll carry on this way
It's like an everlasting dream
Will I never wake up?

Don’t drag me under
There is no time to spare for you
Don’t stand in my way
My fist is breaching
Breaching the surface

Don’t drag me under (No time to spare)
Don’t stand in my way
My journey's just begun

No matter what happens to me
I’ll carry on this way
It's like an everlasting dream
Will I never wake up?

My destination is nowhere?
My own ambitions will fade away?
I’m standing on the road
Whose end is totally all unknown
There is no guarantee
But I’ll carry on

I’ll carry
I’ll carry on
However far away the place is
I’ll carry
I’ll carry on
To give a meaning to my life

Is this my burial?
Let me build a memorial
To prove that I've existed
To prove that I've existed
Here I am

Is this my burial?
Let me build a memorial
To prove that I've existed

With fire in our hearts and steel in our souls We're burning up the road and taking the control Not afraid to fight and always on the run
We're brothers of the storm and we've just begun

We‘re the devil riders from the pits of hell
We'll make you feel the burn with our rebel yell We’re the cowboys from hell and we're here to stay
We'll take you down come whatever may

With fire in our hearts and steel in our souls We're burning up the road and taking the control Not afraid to fight and always on the run

We'll make you feel the burn with our rebel yell We’re the cowboys from hell and we're here to stay
We'll take you down come whatever may

Burn, burn, burn, we got the fire
Burn, burn, burn, the flames will lift us higher
Burn, burn, burn, we are the wildfire
Burn, burn, burn
So we‘re gonna let it

Burn, burn, burn, we got the fire
Burn, burn, burn, the flames will lift us higher
Burn, burn, burn, we are the wildfire
Burn, burn, burn
So we‘re gonna let it
Burn, burn, burn

We‘re the devil riders from the pits of hell
We'll make you feel the burn with our rebel yell We’re the cowboys from hell and we're here to stay
We'll take you down come whatever may

Lyrics:
I came here again today
But it burns in my veins
Just to sit, sleep and decay
And to drink a vial of poison you share with me now
But please, please promise me it helps
To stop this pest plant growing any further
I just don’t want to get eaten up alive by this
Why am I just doing this to me?

A storm without a calm before
You say heaven awaits me, heaven awaits me
And I’ll destroy you to the core
It won’t be easy, I won’t let you break me
You try to take my life but I’m still getting better
And that is all I need to know
There’s a life that awaits me and it’s beautiful

Sent home like a bad guest
Lying around with pain inside
And a feeling that I’ve
Never felt before
I hope you stay with me now
But please, please promise me it helps
To stop this pest plant growing any further
I just don’t want to get eaten up alive by this
Why am I just doing this to me?

A storm without a calm before
You say heaven awaits me, heaven awaits me
And I’ll destroy you to the core
It won’t be easy, I won’t let you break me
You try to take my life but I’m still getting better
And that is all I need to know
There’s a life that awaits me and it’s beautiful

I don’t want you to grow anymore
This place not big enough for both of us
It’s all I have
I don’t care what it takes
I don’t care what it feels

I don’t care what it takes
To rip it out of my chest

Radiate me now from within
Cut it out and burn it away

A storm without a calm before
You say heaven awaits me, heaven awaits me
And I’ll destroy you to the core
It won’t be easy, I won’t let you break me
You try to take my life but I’m still getting better
And that is all I need to know
There’s a life that awaits me and it’s beautiful

A storm without a calm before
You say heaven awaits me, heaven awaits me
And I’ll destroy you to the core
It won’t be easy, I won’t let you break me
You try to take my life but I’m still getting better
And that is all I need to know
There’s a life that awaits me and it’s beautiful

Lyrics:
I’m alive
But my heart feels like a stone
We’re strangers in this place that we call home
This place that we call home

Wait
How could this even be
Completely lost in the moment
Without the atonement
For what used to be

Change has come and we shall see
What we can build from this basis
A blooming oasis
Growing rampant from the start

Taking a while
To provide the identity
Briskly and wild
Enclosing my soul
With warmth so overwhelming
And harmony between it all

A careless ride along
Embrace it till its gone

I’m alive
But my heart feels like a stone
We’re strangers in this place that we call home
This place that we call home

Wait
How come that you can’t see
What already happened between us
What’s buried beneath us
All these words we've thrown against the walls

Pretend to choke it down when I get loud
Pretend to hold me close when I pass out

I’m alive
But my heart feels like a stone
We’re strangers in this place that we call home
This place that we call home

Slow motion disaster
Stuck in the aftermath
We’re strangers in this place that we call home
This place that we call home

Pretend to choke it down when I get loud
For we catch a feeling, that we both burn down
Do you feel the same way? Do you even care at all?
Pretend to hold me close when I pass out

I’m alive
But my heart feels like a stone
We’re strangers in this place that we call home
This place that we call home

Slow motion disaster
Stuck in the aftermath
We’re strangers in this place that we call home
This place that we call home

Lyrics:
I don’t wanna talk about it anymore
I made up my mind, you know I tried to make it work before,
But it caused me so much pain, put out my flame,
Didn’t know how much more I could take
But it’s calling me
I’m fighting my doubt cause I can’t live without it
It’s calling me back down from the clouds where I’m hiding the truth from me and
you
Roaming through the city, looking for a sign
I feel like I’m swimming in a flood of all these neon lights
And I hear a sound it’s circling ‘round my head
Warning me that I can’t play pretend
It’s calling me
I’m fighting my doubt cause I can’t live without it
It’s calling me from deep in my soul, how could I just ignore this
It’s what I need despite all that I’ve lost, I know how much it cost me
It’s calling me back down from the clouds where I’m hiding the truth from me and
you

Lyrics:
Like a ship without a compass, I'm adrift at sea
Doubting if I'll ever reach the horizon, where my dreams will be
I try to light the way, but the wind will always blow
feel like I'll always be in second place, wherever I go

Every time I try, I feel like a bird with broken wings
Flapping and struggling, that never takes off still bound to strings
People tell me I soar, but I can't shake off the fear
That I'll always be stuck here, year after year

Chorus:
Doubting myself every day and night
Can I do better?
Scream into the dark, I’m not alright
Can I do better?
Can I do better than this?

In a sea of stars, I'm just a small flame
Flickering and dancing, but never the same
Feeling lost, like I don't have a place
In this world where everyone shines with grace

Can I do better?
Can I do better than this?

Chorus:
Doubting myself every day and night
Can I do better?
Scream into the dark, I’m not alright
Can I do better?
Can I do better than this?

Like a ship without a compass, I'm adrift at sea
Doubting if I'll ever reach the horizon, where my dreams will be
I try to light the way, but the wind will always blow
feel like I'll always be in second place, wherever I go

I give it all, like a seed in the ground
But it seems like I'm stuck, never reached the sound
Of what I am craving,
No matter how hard I try,
always one step behind

Chorus:
Doubting myself every day and night
Can I do better?
Scream into the dark, I’m not alright
Can I do better?
Can I do better than this?
Can I do better than this?

Lyrics:
Lalalalala love will fix it all
Lalalalala love will fix it all

As we dive into the night
Singing the songs of our lives
The stars twinkle in the sky
With every move we make
We let the time stand still
With every breath we take
We get another thrill
Love sinks deeper into our souls

Through the storm and the raging sea
Love will set its sails and will set us free
Love is the anchor love will keep us strong
Love is the boat that keeps us all afloat

So come whatever may
Love will conquer love will stay
Love will fix it all
Lalalalala love will fix it all
Through the trials and the pain
Love will conquer love will stay
Love will fix it all
Lalalalala love will fix it all

Lalalalala love will fix it all
Lalalalala love will fix it all

No matter what life brings
We will dance we will sing
Cause we found a place to lay our burdens down
We're living young wild and free pocketful of dreams
Carefree and weightless like the ocean breeze
May the fire never die

Through the storm and the raging sea
Love will set its sails and will set us free
Love is the anchor love will keep us strong
Love is the boat that keeps us all afloat

So come whatever may
Love will conquer love will stay
Love will fix it all
Lalalalala love will fix it all
Through the trials and the pain
Love will conquer love will stay
Love will fix it all
Lalalalala love will fix it all

Lalalalala love will fix it all
Lalalalala love will fix it all

No matter what love will stay
Never fold nor obey
Love will conquer love will slay
In each and every fray

So come whatever may
Love will conquer love will stay
Love will fix it all
Lalalalala love will fix it all
Through the trials and the pain
Love will conquer love will stay
Love will fix it all
Lalalalala love will fix it all

Lalalalala love will fix it all
Lalalalala love will fix it all

Lyrics:
Feels like you’re over my shoulder
Walls move in closer and closer
How can I hold my composure when every move I make?
I feel you breathe down my neck
My every word you inspect
But is it all in my head?
I think it’s all in my head
‘cause all I can feel is shame
I feel it rushing through my veins
I think it’s happening again
It’s happening again
How can I get through this when all I can feel is shame?
Your virulent affirmations
Control all my aspirations
I feel them testing my patience with every word you say
They’re like plague in my head
I hear them over again
There’s so much venom in your tongue
That questions who I’ve become
Who I’ve become
Poison seeping down my spine
Cold sweats petrified in time
Nothing feels real but everything matters
Such distain
All I can feel is shame
I feel it rushing through my veins
I think it’s happening again
It’s happening again
How can I get through this when all I can feel is shame?
I feel it rushing through my veins
I think it’s happening again
It’s happening again
How can I get through this when all I can feel is shame?
How can I get through this when all I can feel is shame?
How can I get through this when all I can feel is shame?

Lyrics:
A split sense of myself
I feel like somebody else
It’s both heaven and hell
I’m breaking, I’m breaking away

My mind is at war
A battle for my soul
I’m free, but lost you know
There’s no way out, no way to go
I am the hate
I am the fear
I am the voice that you can't hear
I am the end that's always near

H. A. T. E.
Having anger towards everything
H. A. T. E.
Having anger towards everything

My past buried inside
feels like I’m buried alive
I can’t open my eyes
Who am I

I’m drawn and split up in two
But I know which way to go
I will pick up my cross
To save my soul

The anger the rage
The poison the plague
Destroying everything that's pure

I am the hate
I am the fear
I am the voice that you can't hear
I am the end that's always near

H. A. T. E.
Having anger towards everything
H. A. T. E.
Having anger towards everything

You've been a monster
And I can see
You're just an empty shell
A shadow of me

My mind is at war with myself
It feels like somebody else
Those demons I cannot deny
Cause my mind is nothing but hell

The anger the rage
The poison the plague
Destroying everything that's pure

I am the hate
I am the fear
I am the voice that you can't hear
I am the end that's always near

I am the hate
I am the fear
I am the pain that you hold dear
I am the end of all your dreams

H. A. T. E.
Having anger towards everything
H. A. T. E.
Having anger towards everything

Lyrics:
Crown of thorns, overgrown
Is this where I spit the bone
It’s my fault, should have known
Let’s dive into the unknown

Still I suffer from the same disease
A crippled being as I was destined to be
But I am far from knowing better than to run away
I keep my feelings locked away, no escape

I never thought that I would see the day
This crippled feeling takes my breath away

Unanswered faith
I’ve seen it all - going down the drain
Hell is everywhere

Crown of thorns, overgrown
Is this where I spit the bone
It’s my fault, should have known
Let’s dive into the unknown

And I hate to say,
No more running away
It's getting harder to tell
If im the villian or hero

Unanswered faith
I’ve seen it all - going down the drain
Hell is everywhere

I reserve my right
To feel afraid

Never stopped doubting myself, not a single day
This pressure won‘t go away I need another chance
Reminding myself
That there is only one way to prevail

Crown of thorns, overgrown
Is this where I spit the bone
It’s my fault, should have known
Let’s dive into the unknown
I've spent my days trying to stay out of the dark
Yet the menace of the years has left it’s mark
But wether I stay or wether i go
Won’t make a change
I’ve come to understand
Hell is everywhere

I've spent my days trying to stay out of the dark
Yet the menace of the years has left it’s mark
But wether I stay or wether i go
I’ve come to understand
Hell is everywhere

Lyrics:
the first shot cast was a fucking disgrace
deterrent burn, set ablaze at the stake
so next one wouldn't pass for mistake
locked shut, here we stand, loaded clip to the face

an offering of frailty is the common disease
longing for the venom so the hounds may feast
on the flesh and blood under pale dead skin
leave nothing, leave nothing

the silver linings are towers of gold
see how far we've come
is the story we are told
the silver linings are towers of gold
human life is just a casualty

your offering only common disease
servant to their gratification
we remember their name
we remember their name

Lyrics:
Again those voices talk to me
Trying to manipulate me
Wish it would end before I'm giving in to them

Two faces, one name
Zero empathy for this disarray

Cut my head off to see the misery within

All these lies in my mind
I'm never good enough

All this time I keep saying
I'm never good enough

All these lies in my mind
and I'm not giving a f***

Wishing it would stop
Before I give it up

I fight
To end my crooked mind
I'm tired of everything that's weighing up my life

I tried
To bend to please you right
I'm tired of this s*** to make you satisfied

Adapt, reject
take it out of my head

Is this my voice or is this somebody else?
The only suspect that I see is myself
Behind the masquerade I fell victim to my own delusion

Is this my voice or is this somebody else?

I fight
To end my crooked mind
I'm tired of everything that's weighing up my life

I tried
To bend to please you right
I'm tired of this s**** to make you satisfied

C** my head off to see the misery taking the best of me

Lyrics:
Fuck karma, fuck luck,
fuck fate, fuck coincidence
I give it all and all I’ve got
Unstoppable like an avalanche

My life - an endless highway
I am the rolling stone
Get the fuck out of my way
This is the point of no return

I waste no time on bitterness
ln a world that‘s limitless
I believe in myself
I will prevail

Limitless - Limitless

I waste no time on bitterness
ln a world that‘s limitless
I believe in myself
I will prevail

Until the day I die
I don’t want it
I don’t need it
if I can’t get it on my own

No sorrow
And no apologies
Until the day i die

fuck envy fuck hate
fuck lies fuck dishonesty
I kill it all with my success
tolerance, grace and modesty

Never leave anything to chance
I got it all with my own hands
The sky is not the limit
I’ll gonna pay the moon a visit

I waste no time on bitterness
ln a world that‘s limitless
I believe in myself
I will prevail

Until the day I die
I don’t want it
I don’t need it
if I can’t get it on my own

Time is running and it won‘t run back
I seize the day til I vanish away
death is the only fate no one can escape
memento mori

I waste no time on bitterness
ln a world that‘s limitless
I believe in myself
I will prevail

Until the day I die
I don’t want it
I don’t need it
if I can’t get it on my own

Lyrics:
Pacing through the water
I can hear no sound
I’m all at once
As I’m sinking to the ground
Deep dive

Pacing through the water

Black Silhouette in the face of the sun
A lost turmoil defying the void
Like a shadow on the surface
Bound to dance with the waves
Summoned by the storm in me

Free myself of all dust
Feel the winds around me
I calmly breathe
Leave a trail of the past
As I’m drifting blindly

A sudden call down under
A pull beneath my ribs
The winds around grow silent
I fall and try to scream

It’s pulling me down

Pacing through the water
I can hear no sound
I’m all at once
As I’m sinking to the ground
The waves are crashing in
No lights around
But a single spark
Is pulling me back down

Deep dive

My mind is trembling and I feel the grip inside
A black hole swallowing everything
And I keep panicking and fighting for my life
Drifting through the darkness

But the single spark is glowing
In blooming green
I try to fill my lungs
But I drown instead

Pacing
Through the water

Pacing through the water
I can hear no sound
I’m all at once
As I’m sinking to the ground
The waves are crashing in
No lights around
But a single spark
Is pulling me back down

It’s pulling me back down
Through the water

Lyrics:
So here we go
An all-pervading sadness unfolds its wings
You have no idea how bottomless hell is
It will eat away at you to feed you agonies
Never happy never full until you're on your knees

Doom doom
It'll leave you shattered broken and forlorn
Doom doom
It will feed you with a million thorns
Doom doom
It's blowing its hunting horn
Doom doom
It will shake you to the core

A whirlwind of doom is coming for you
And you don't have a clue
A whirlwind of doom is coming for you
And you don't have a clue

Doom doom doom
A whirlwind of doom
A whirlwind of doom
Is coming for you
Doom doom doom
See the shadows creeping in
The shadows creeping in
It's coming for you
Doom doom doom
A whirlwind of doom
A whirlwind of doom
Is coming for you
Doom doom doom
See the shadows creeping in
A whirlwind of doom
Is coming for you

You're in its grip

It's coming for you with no mercy like a machete
Its forerunners seeking you appearing like a banshee
As they are riding on the waves of prophecy
Your mind is drifting towards insanity

Doom doom
A symphony of sorrow is rushing through your veins
Doom doom
The anthem of the damned echoes in your head
Doom doom
Are you ready to face the pain
Doom doom
To bleed and suffer insanely

A whirlwind of doom is coming for you
And you don't have a clue
A whirlwind of doom is coming for you
And you don't have a clue

Doom doom doom
A whirlwind of doom
A whirlwind of doom
Is coming for you
Doom doom doom
See the shadows creeping in
The shadows creeping in
It's coming for you
Doom doom doom
A whirlwind of doom
A whirlwind of doom
Is coming for you
Doom doom doom
See the shadows creeping in
A whirlwind of doom
Is coming for you

You're in its grip
It's coming for you
You're in its grip

A whirlwind of doom is coming for you
And you don't have a clue

Doom doom doom
A whirlwind of doom
A whirlwind of doom
Is coming for you
Doom doom doom
See the shadows creeping in
The shadows creeping in
It's coming for you
Doom doom doom
A whirlwind of doom
A whirlwind of doom
Is coming for you
Doom doom doom
See the shadows creeping in
A whirlwind of doom
Is coming for you

You're in its grip
