Dystopia




1. Dystopia

Welcome Dystopia – Come show me who you are!

I hate myself
I hate all of you
I hate myself
I hate everything
I hate myself
I hate all of you
Ones and Zeros
Who the fuck are you!?

Media is like a mirror
and I don't like what I see
I change – I shift
„Generation ME“
I loose myself, cause the truth is elsewhere
I'm caught inside this
Dystopian nightmare

There's truth inside a lie
You can't escape dystopia

I hate myself
I hate all of you
I hate myself
I hate everything
I hate myself
I hate all of you
Ones and Zeros
Who the fuck are you!?

Angst and isolation
Techno sadness – paranoia
Existential Panic
We're alone together
Your grin so cheerless
Stuck in the matrix
Where hate is faceless
I fucking hate this!

Narcissistic – Religious
Metastatic – Can't quit this!

There's truth inside a lie
You can't escape dystopia

I can't escape – I've gone astray

I feel so lifeless – I'm stuck in the matrix
I can't escape this mess – Blegh.
I can't escape this mess, it's killing me now.

There's truth inside a lie
You can't escape dystopia
Dystopia
I can't escape, I've gone astray
It's killing me.

I hate myself
I hate all of you
I hate myself
I hate everything
I hate myself
I hate all of you
Ones and Zeros
Who the fuck are you!?


2. Ascent of the Blessed

Ascent Of The Blessed
What is this place and why am I here?
I see myself and nothing feels real
I’m torn between this world and the next
walking the line between life and death

I can see the other side
Ascent of the Blessed
Drawn by a blinding light
I can see the other side
Ascent of the Blessed
I die, die, die

I slowly fade into memory
I slowly fade
Will you remember me!?

Making peace with my demons
now that I see them
I am finding my freedom, as I stop breathing
I’m sinking deeper - can’t beat the reaper
all men are mortal, he will be there
I’m looking back full of regret
not ready yet - I’m cheating death (I kill death)
This might be heaven - This might be hell
I accept both, so farewell

I can see the other side
Ascent of the Blessed
Drawn by a blinding light
I can see the other side
Ascent of the Blessed
I die, die, die

I slowly fade into memory
I slowly fade
Will you remember me!?

I’m torn between this world and the next
Will you remember me!?
I'm walking the line between life and death

I turn everything upside down
I KILL DEATH!
Time is ticking – ticking away
Will you remember me!?
I KILL DEATH!

I’m falling through the circles of hell
I see my tired self
at the end of the road
There is no way to go
My heart skips a beat
makes me forget how to breath
a void so dark and deep
I’m about to fall into eternal sleep

I slowly fade into memory
I slowly fade
Will you remember me!?
I slowly fade


3. VirUS

Bite your lying tongue
I know your right is wrong
You won't bring us down (you won't bring us down)

Bite your lying tongue
I know your right is wrong
You won't bring us down
The virus will kill us all

An idea arises
It is so contagious
It narrows the horizon
In the darkest hour of reason

It's like being haunted by a ghost (haunted by a ghost)
Why can't, why can't I say no

They wanna make us believe
In everything that they preach
Manipulate our trust
To feed the virus in us
And everything that we see
Humanity's tragedy
The darkness deep in our hearts
Became the virus in us

It's going viral
Think intuition
Can't you see the brave new world
One God, one vision
All these lies are cutting deep
Bending reality
Freedom is slavery
So it shall be

It's like being haunted by a ghost (haunted by a ghost)
Why can't, why can't I say no

They wanna make us believe
In everything that they preach
Manipulate our trust
To feed the virus in us
And everything that we see
Humanity's tragedy
The darkness deep in our hearts

Break me
Break free, break
Break everything

Break me
Break free, break
Break everything

Break me
Break free, break
Break everything

Break me
Break free, break
Break everything

'Cause everything is falling apart

Implanting a thought from mind to mind
Painting everything in black and white
Creating the lie
Creating the lie, lie

They wanna make us believe
In everything that they preach
Manipulate our trust

They wanna make us believe
In everything that they preach
Manipulate our trust
To feed the virus in us
And everything that we see
Humanity's tragedy
The darkness deep in our hearts
Became the virus in us


4. Phantom Pain

Why should we remember and be sad
When we could be happy and forget
Knock off the dead wood
Don't dwell in the past
Get rid of all burden we carry with us

This is a trip down memory lane
To torture myself once again
It's like a torch from deep within
Fanned by the wind
Salvation lies in pain
Salvation lies in pain

Or should we remember what made us sad
And face the hell in our head
Don't retreat from the chaos, confront it instead
Remember, remember
Torture yourself once again
Again, again
Torture yourself once again

This is a trip down memory lane
To torture myself once again
It's like a torch from deep within
Fanned by the wind
Salvation lies in pain
Salvation lies in pain

The past is now and it won't go
Salvation lies in pain
The past is now and it won't go
Salvation

The past is now and it won't go
But you never know what the future holds
The scars are real, phantom pain
Why are you still here my friend?
Get lost
Leave me the fuck alone

This is a trip down memory lane
To torture myself once again
It's like a torch from deep within
Fanned by the wind
Salvation lies in pain

I've been here before
Things will never change
Leave me the fuck alone, that's the only way
Salvation lies in pain

Leave me the fuck alone

Get lost, leave me the fuck alone


5. Alien

I’m a dreamer
My roots are inside of me
I'm a loner
I am debris
I'm walking on clouds
Restless but deeply at ease
Into the now – Would you follow me!?

I am an alien
I wander alone into the unknown
I am an alien
I'm coming home wherever I go

Where Do You belong?

I'm never alone, I'm never alone
The Self and the shadow
I (just) can't let it go
I'm coming home wherever I go
My heart is the root
from which everything grows – Would you follow me!?

I am an alien
I wander alone into the unknown
I am an alien
I'm coming home wherever I go

Where Do You Belong?
You Belong To No One!

I am an alien
I wander alone into the unknown
I am an alien
I'm coming home wherever I go

Where Do You Belong?
You Belong To No One!


6. sWords

It's cuttin' deep, right to the core
Sharp and unforgivin'
Words are like swords

Why don't we have a tongue of glass
When just one word could take your fucking breath
Why don't we have a tongue of glass
When even silence could bring you death!?

Silence is a lie
When you have somethin' to say
The world's not black and white
Choke on your lies, choke on your lies
Silence is a lie, a lie

You dare to hurt, you dare to harm
Your words won't get into my heart
Your lies are cheap, your tongue is split
Choke on your lies you fuckin' hypocrite
Choke on your lies, choke on your lies
Choke on your lies you fuckin' hypocrite

Hate, hate, spit in your face
Spit, spit, spit it out
Spit it out
Spit, spit, spit it out
Spit it out

Silence is a lie
When you have somethin' to say
The world's not black and white
Choke on your lies, choke on your lies
Silence is a lie

A lie
When you have somethin' to say
Silence is a lie
When you have somethin' to say

Silence is a lie

When you have somethin' to say

Silence is a lie
When you have somethin' to say
The world's not black and white
Choke on your lies, choke on your lies
Silence is a lie, a lie

Spit it out


7. Darkness I Became

And darkness I became

I'm lovin' the dark, 'cause it's silent in here
This nothingness makes my sorrows disappear
When solitude is bliss, then there's comfort in silence
Close your eyes and listen

Can't you feel?
That the night holds your heart
And it heals
What the day has torn apart
Can't you feel?
That the night holds your heart
Can't you see?
The night shows who you are

Darkness I became
The loneliness my only friend showed me
Who I am
A million scars, but still no pain
Again and again, I don't feel a thing

And darkness I became

A window becomes a mirror at night
Face yourself, see what's buried inside
Find yourself, define yourself
Object, contradict
Then reconcile with yourself

Can't you feel?
That the night holds your heart
And it heals
What the day has torn apart
Can't you feel?
That the night holds your heart
Can't you see?
The night shows who you are

Darkness I became
The loneliness my only friend showed me
Who I am
A million scars, but still no pain
Again and again, I don't feel a thing

The demons told me who I am
The demons told me who I am
Who I am
Who I am (and darkness I became)
Who I am

Darkness I became (darkness I became)
The loneliness my only friend showed me
Who I am
A million scars, but still no pain
Again and again, I don't feel a thing
Who I am


8. Dragon

My soul is wrapped in plastic
My heart's cut, stitched and scarred
My feelings non-existent
My lust stuffed in a jar

Born with the devil in me
The world is weak
I'm the powers that be (Born with the)
Born with the devil in me
It's in me
It's in me
Until it breaks free

Something's inside of me
Something's inside of me (Something)
Something's inside of me (Can't hold it back)
Something, something inside

Love to see you plead and weep
Watching the light passing from your eyes
Love to taste your salty tears
It's time to kiss your life goodbye

Born with the devil in me
The world is weak
I'm the powers that be (Born with the)
Born with the devil in me
It's in me
It's in me
Until it breaks free

Until it breaks free
Until it breaks free

Something's inside of me
Something's inside of me (Something)
Something's inside of me (Can't hold it back)
Something, something inside

I'm a dragon, I never truly die
I'm a dragon, I'm never satisfied
Feel my wrath
You can't hold me back
You can't hold me back

Something's inside of me
Something's inside of me (Something)
Something's inside of me (Can't hold it back)
Something, something inside

Something's inside of me
Something's inside of me (Something)
Something's inside of me (Can't hold it back)
Something, something inside

Feel

Feel my wrath


9. Hibernate

It's a silent place
I still hibernate
Winter in my veins
Maybe it's too late
Time is ticking away
I've been turning in circles
I'm restless and selfless, I fade

Where do I belong?
I slowly fade away
I can't feel love nor pain
Where do I belong?
I slowly fade away
No love, no shine

Motionless inside
It's so unbearably quiet
It's so unbearably quiet
I can no longer hide
Hope and fear collides
I'm sleepwalking again
Between the dark and dawn
Where do I belong?

Where do I belong?
I slowly fade away
I can't feel love nor pain
Where do I belong?
I slowly fade away
No love, no shine

My heart is spun, spun in a cocoon
So secure yet lost left alone
What is right and what is wrong
Where do I, where do I belong?

Where do I belong?
Where do I belong?

Where do I belong?
I slowly fade away
I can't feel love nor pain
Where do I belong?
I slowly fade away
No love, no shine


10. mOther

I can hear your silent call
'Cause all we have is this impossible world

Adapt or perish, the merciless imperative
The crown of creation? Negative
We're claiming the right to destroy and to rise
Till we're buried under fallen skies

We're turning green to grey
Falling leaves, we suffocate
Devastate, intoxicate
We are nature's sole mistake

So we are lost in the fire
Since our earth became hell
But we still keep on denying
Our mother's decay
Could we change?
If we're just born to die and live to fail
So we are lost in the fire
The price we pay by ourselves

We black out the sun
Dust and dirty air in our lungs
Salvation, there is none, there is none
A burning paradise, burning paradise
Leading to demise, leading to demise

We build, we dig, we kill
Until the day grows still
We build, we dig, we kill
Until the day grows still

We build, we dig, we kill
Until the day grows still
We build, we dig, we kill
Until the day grows still

So we are lost in the fire
Since our earth became hell
But we still keep on denying
Our mother's decay
Could we change?
If we're just born to die and live to fail
So we are lost in the fire
The price we pay by ourselves

Mother, mother
I can feel your aching heart
Mother, mother
Everything is falling apart
Your sun shines in us
Once and for all
Your river flows through us
Swelling in my core
I can hear your silent call
'Cause all we have is this impossible world

What have we become?

So we are lost in the fire
Since our earth became hell
But we still keep on denying
Our mother's decay
Could we change?
If we're just born to die and live to fail
So we are lost in the fire

What have we become?

We build, we dig, we kill
Until the day grows still
We build, we dig, we kill
Until the day grows still


11. The World Breaks Everyone

Get in touch with your inner psychopath
Sometimes we need to know what our darkness is
'Cause life is hell and full of pain
Sometimes you gotta die to be born again

There is this madness that keeps you going on
This fucking madness, proving reason wrong
Pick up the pieces, although all hope is gone
The world breaks everyone

The world breaks everyone
Who are you now?
Where do you go?

The world breaks everyone
Who are you now?
Never bow down

The world breaks everyone (everyone)

The world breaks everyone (everyone)
Never bow down

Fuck past failures, that's not you anymore
Turn losses into lessons, for they will make you strong
Pick up your cross, put its weight on your shoulder
Pick up your cross, transform chaos into order

Sacrifice the present for the future
'Cause you are accepting every challenge
Remember the monster inside, the fire, the why
Can bear any how, even ready to die

The world breaks everyone
Who are you now?
Where do you go?

The world breaks everyone
Who are you now?
Never bow down

The world breaks everyone (everyone)

The world breaks everyone (everyone)
Never bow down

Pick up your cross
Who are you now?
Pick up your cross
Never bow down

Pick up your cross
Who are you now?
Pick up your cross
Never bow down

Who are you now?
Where do you go?
Who are you now?
Where do you go?

The world breaks everyone
Who are you now?
Where do you go?

The world breaks everyone
Who are you now?
Never bow down

The world breaks everyone (everyone)

The world breaks everyone (everyone)
Never bow down


12. Divided

I'm divided like America
Between coma and hysteria
Stars and stripes
Black and white, red and blue
Who am I – America, America

America, America
America, America

I can't wake anyone up who's pretending to sleep
You seek confirmation
Not the truth underneath
You call me names and turn up the heat
I don't care about color, sex or your creed
We split down the middle
Half hero – half villain
We're different, but equal

I'm divided like America
Between coma and hysteria
Stars and stripes
Black and white, red and blue
Who am I – America, America

America, America
America, America

The humble change of your inner self
Becomes the change of the world one day
We're all confused, but let's be brave
Cause love is always stronger than hate
Let's celebrate our shared humanity
Why can't we disagree more constructively!?

We are one
We are in this together
We are one
We are in this together

I'm divided like America
Between coma and hysteria
Stars and stripes
Black and white, red and blue
Who am I – America, America
I'm divided like America
Between coma and hysteria
Stars and stripes
Black and white, red and blue
Who am I – America, America

America, America
America, America

We are one
We are in this together
We are one
We are in this together
