Alive 04:17
lyrics

I'm alive The only thing that's real is in My mind, so I Became your desire Take control Become the nightmare you have lost Your mind and soul Betray the messiah now Awake arise Disengage from your obsessions Let's start a new beginning As we break away from here Break away from you Discern the last true path From there's no turning back From now on it will never Never be the same You are not alone We'll find a place You can call home You are not alone We'll find a place You can call home You are not alone We'll find a place You can call home Now come and take my hand And we chase away All the things we hate Escape from the places We made up in our heads I'm fucking wasted I'm alive I hate everything you praise To the words you can't deny Hate me I want you to hate me I hate everything you praise To the words you can't deny Hate me I want you to rape me Tell me how you like the taste Being thrown against the past Lay down your disguise Any last words Before I draw the line And sacrifice myself To come back to life I'm alive I hate everything you praise For the words you can't deny Fucking open up your eyes And face me now Now come and take my hand And we chase away All the things we hate Escape from the places We made up in our heads I'm fucking wasted Now come and take my hand And we chase away All the things we hate Escape from the places We made up in our heads I'm fucking wasted But am I alive though

No I won't obey to your Spells anymore Your false convictions has made Us attack our protector And there's no Coming back for you on the show It's rearranged and I changed the roles I'm not pretending Your era is ending I ain't coming back for once and for all You made me sick and I can never be cured I'm not pretending Enjoy my happy ending I won't obey to your spells anymore You mad me sick I can never be cured Your era will be ending Disgrace all your surroundings No Surrender Get on your knees and pray Plead for your life Your reign of terror ends now Surrender Pled for life Surrender Pled for life Surrender Surrender Surrender

You're a failure and you've realised The evidence is locked in your mind And i won't break my back For you no more You can tear me apart I'm ready for Where is the place to hide I always want to go I had to break the walls I've builded up before Confide my secrets And put a knife to my throat I'm getting buried But I'm not even cold You're the hunter And I'm the submissive prey Take the trophy And humiliate the fuck out of me You realised You can't escape from yourself Suicidal thoughts in your mind I've been sick For so long So you're not the only one I'm telling you to holding on on We found a place called home The place inside your head Can't find my way back out Restart again Stuck in a place called home The place inside your head Can't wait for help no more No more, no more No more, no more No more Light it up Everything what makes you sad Burn it down Until the motherfuckin end Where is the place to hide I always want to go I had to break the walls I've builded up before Confide my secrets And put a knife to my throat I'm getting buried But I'm not even cold You're the hunter And I'm the submissive prey Take the trophy And humiliate the fuck out of me What is your plan What will you do Decide for yourself It only reveals What you truly have become Can't wait for help no more No more No more Burn this fear Burn it down Burn this fear Burn it fucking down I've been sick For so long So you're not the only one I'm telling you to holding on I said I'm sick For so long So you're not the only one I'm telling you For fuck sake Just keep holding on We found a place called home The place inside your head Can't find my way back out Restart again Stuck in a place called home The place inside your head Can't wait for help no more No more, no more

Disconnect 03:10

My life is far from perfection Disengaging from the bond we had Everything points in wrong directions Still waiting for the day That will never come Everything that I liked Everything that I loved Everyday feels like warfare Every day Everything is a lie Everything is a lie Everyday feels like warfare I am no more what you want me to be Stuck inside the cycle So far from the sky Everything is a lie Throwing of the muzzle And get the chance to solemnly proclaim I’m tired of your games My life is far from perfection Disengaging from the bond we had I will never fall No matter what you do Not matter what you say Because I will never fall I will never fall The beauty of a dream Voids the memories Awake before I sleep Playing memories Cutting the conncetion From the seed In love with the rejection From within Suffocate the obsession Let it be Create a new direction Where do I begin My life is far from perfection Disengaging from the bond we had Everything is a lie Everything is a lie Everyday feels like warfare Stuck inside the cycle So far from the sky Everything is a lie Throwing of the muzzle And get the chance to solemnly proclaim I’m tired of your games Everything is a lie Everything is a lie Everyday feels like warfare I need to break the cycle I’m tired of facing your lies I need to break the cycle Embrace up to the sky Embrace up to the sky I never had the chance to get up to the ones I love

Stab that Bitch 04:22
lyrics
buy track
Our eyes meet As your pictures Slips through my hand My farewell breaks me down Like every night before Take the shot that Drifts me away Once upon a time A tragedy came over us Lost the lights who Brightened up my life Stunned from the night Reached the highlight of her trip So damn bombed She could not see us What awaits her now was founded What awaits her on this night So step aside Stab that bitch from behind I see you Fear my breath In your neck, my breath So step aside Stab that bitch from behind Now relive what i had To go through, what I´ve done So step aside So step aside Stab from behind So take my life And fly away Bring me down to my decay Blue lights come over me I pull the gun Without fear A smile comes through And I see you Breaking through the sky And all the hate disappears

No the world became One big mess They took the essence And our system collapsed How much can you take And what do you gain if you can't Witness the future you'll save I will leave everything behind What I hold onto Can not be reified No distance too far There are no obstacles I can't jump over Free us from all the violence We're writing history Now come and join us On our journey Free us from all Free us from all the violence From all the violence Come save us now Now come and take my hand Now come and take my hand We're writing history We're writing history We don't have the time To even hesitate We've risked way too much Now there is no way turning back You shall die Die die die Die die die Free us from all the violence We're writing history Now come and join us On our journey Can we deafet them Who left us bleeding Always I know There's no way around Go somewhere safer And let me take care I don't want you to See me like this Already shaking And I'm raging I can't handle Losing you again Free us from all the violence We're writing history Now come and join us On our journey

Careless With my innocence and Not giving the attention Soaked in fraud I've been left with all these scars Hi there I want you to meet My friends They're gonna make you feel Real okay And we forget about this Stupid mistakes Get the fuck away from me and Shut up Shut up Fucking shut up Shut up Everything we shared Is laying on my chest Constant pressure I can not breath in Everything we shared Is all in vain by now Can't convince myself I have to let it go My blood on the floor Can't find the pieces to Stuff all my flaws Create obscenity We were made to believe But meant to be deceived The agony just cracked Open my eyes And find a way out my The shell of disguise Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey You and I Shared much time Blind believe Been deceived Soaked in fraud Left with scars Recreate End this fate Everything we shared Is laying on my chest Constant pressure I can not breath in Everything we shared Is all in vain by now Can't convince myself I have to let it go
