Shit, it's getting sick it's getting colder each day oppression is violent, resistance is silent we don't feel nothing. we killed it all with medicine. the states keep exploiting the ones who are voting for them They took all of our dreams and left us incomplete we’re living on our knees while we still think we’re free ! Brick by brick we destroy what we have built the concerns are driving, no finish in sight its insane, we're enslaved to systems we have made what have we done ? we're all falling apart We got a choice to speak but prefer to stay silent build up so much technology but only use it to destroy we don´t want to leave but also don´t stay here We are the ones who overdosed and pushed it all til nothing goes we are the ones who lived a life without deference We are the ones who overslept who missed the chance to take a stand we are the ones who let all of this happen They let us work for their wealth take our dreams, make sure we won't get any hope or perspective they keep us low so they can breathe Fat and greedy corporations taking from the poor nations until there's nothing they own All systems are working as planned

Pleonexia 02:56
How does it feel to be a part of the elite the upper class society to not know what poverty means ? they lost all sense of humanity so full of all their vanity their ignorance will kill us all Without fear, without shame they don´t care about nobody else but them until they get it all And we say "that's how it goes" and everyone is on his own how we're supposed to end it all when we're not ready to revolt ? its up to us to take a stand to make it all come to an end with us it stands, with us it falls They took our jobs, took our homes they took everything we own with no remorse they'll never have enough So i ask: When will their needs be appeased when will their greed disappear how long can they keep taking on and on and on and on and on And so they blind us with fake news, their propaganda, hide the truth while they keep robbing us with no regrets they're getting all - someone please make them stop ! And so i ask: When will their needs be appeased when will their greed disappear how long can they keep taking on and on and on and on and on Until the get it all

This is a story about a guy who lived his life in a permanent state of unrest and tries he always did what he was told although he knows what’s going on he keeps talking on and on Nothing changes if nothing will be done and nothing stays when you will get it on so his years passed by too fast but nothing happened at last so powerless Another unfinished story of a life that had never been lived and we’re so sick and tired of going nowhere but we don’t do anything He always said one day he’ll fly away like a bird that escapes from his cage only waiting for a chance a better time, a better day so far away Another unfinished story of a life that had never been lived and we’re so sick and tired of going nowhere but we don’t do anything Waiting for his life to start So here is your chance to get things right let’s get up this time, let’s get back your life and we will go together on this road you’re not on your own, you are not alone

Everything’s changing again And i can feel it everywhere Whatever we do, we just keep turning away From our own lives And we will notice our freedom, when it´s completely gone Your wisdom - is broken now And you won´t get it back again Hopelessly broken you won´t change a thing So it´s time to pick you up again Everything’s changing again And I can feel it every day No matter what I do all my friends will divide But it´s all their lives And they will notice their freedom, when it´s completely gone They’re broken - but they don´t know They can´t see anything at all Hope is all gone in their empty lives And it can never be returned This - This Is your life - Life And there´s no one who will live it for you so just take your time Take - Take Take your way And just live your life with no regrets Faith - you can get it back again when you just want To change your life and all around - it´s not so hard Just try to stop to think like you´re a fucking slave Cause it´s your life This - This Is your life - Life And there´s no one who will live it for you so just take your time Take - Take Take your way And just live your life with no regrets

Grown up but still we're adolescents the rebel in us just don't want to rest discontent with this world you always told us how to dress and speak what we should do and what we don't need pretty clear now you didn't succeed And we're still alive and well although you never thought we will be still an eyesore to your ordinary world The warnings you have told none of them did happen so we're gonna stay the way you don't want us to be So many years and we're still against religion, fascism, intolerance enemies of narrow minds you tried to make us look like the bad guys to infiltrate us and to break our minds but you can´t kill a rebels heart with that And we're still alive and well although you never thought we will be still an eyesore to your ordinary world The warnings you have told none of them did happen so we're gonna stay the way you don't want us to be

In Holy Wars 03:32
Tough days in troubled times the different points of views collide fighting for nothing worth at all Evil minds with fictive friends spreading intolerance to keep us blind, to keep us low What is right? what is wrong? guess nobody knows all we've lost, all we've payed for nothing at all so much hate, so much pain, so much wasted energy it’s all wasted, all wasted - in the name of creed Each god seems to be right so in their names we always fight for love & peace with rage and war Religions keep dividing us letting us all fall apart teach prejudice & ignorance What is right? what is wrong? guess nobody knows all we've lost, all we've payed for nothing at all so much hate, so much pain, so much wasted energy it’s all wasted, all wasted - in the name of creed In holy wars What is right? what is wrong? how far will we go? all we've lost, all we've payed for nothing at all so much hate, so much pain, so much wasted energy it’s all wasted, fucking wasted - in the name of creed

Fading Away 04:00
When everything's grey and surrounds you When everything's not how it used to be And so hopelessly You feel so sick and so tired You feel so weak and so blind And no hope inside It´s like you´re slowly fading away You´re fading away You´re losing the sunshine in your eyes You´re fading away Until there´s nothing left inside You´re fading away And you will slowly lose your way So now you´re a part of society So now you believe every single word That they have told You feel so sick in your mind You feel so sick about your life You don´t feel alive This time you´re slowly fading away You´re fading away You´re losing the sunshine in your eyes You´re fading away Until there´s nothing left inside You´re fading away And you will slowly lose your way Slowly fade away When all is said and done When there is not a single word You´re so helpless, you´re so desperate, you´re so down You took the other way And all you get is scorn and hate It´s like everything´s against you when you´re down You´re so down You slowly fade away someday You slowly fade away someday And you won´t come back someday someday, someday You´re fading away You´re losing the sunshine in your eyes You´re fading away Until there´s nothing left inside You´re fading away And you will slowly lose your way

Another day, another morning (in this world) feel so sick, feel so weak from all its tragedies no good news are in sight again looks like everything will fall to pieces soon these days And everyday our self esteem will be dragged down a little more until theres nothing left of it until they broke us all We lost our hope, lost our confidence, in any positive solution of our problems nobody sees, nobody hears nothing we all gave up, we’re just waiting for the end to come And everything is left undone nobody cares about no one until there's nothing left at all Waiting for the end, everything seems dead everyone is giving up these days we're the modern slaves right here in our place sitting there and waiting for the end waiting for the end But here in our comfort zone between all these shopping malls dying slowly but warm and safe all shines and looks unreal, makes us forget our fears but no one wants to pay the bill Waiting for the end, everyone is giving up these days we're the modern slaves right here in our place sitting there and waiting for the end Until this world collapse

So these are our last useful days this may be our last common place there is not much left when we watch the past everyone's working all day everyone's on his own way and we feel all right with this almost forgot how to live How long will you wait til you start to live So take your time there is not much left take back your life before it’s too late and take your mind, and take your time, and take your life back again ! Maybe this moment is our last maybe this smile is your best so let's take a rest and forget all stress maybe this feeling today won’t return on any day so don’t let it be a waste of what you feel How long will you wait til you start to live so take your time there is not much left take back your life before it’s too late and take your mind, and take your time, and take your life back again ! So when you just think it out loud what is your life all about is there any sense in working all day when you just listen to your heart until it's not stopped don't you thing that it could use some more of you How long will you wait til you start to live So take your time there is not much left take back your life before it’s too late and take your mind, and take your time, and take your life back again !
