As I close my eyes I see in my mind A vision, follow-up Of pictures, like a video I don’t know whether to cry Or to be silent It was something That wasn’t anything But a still hope And now it will Never ever be Except a dead end Dead end I ride back in the dark night Thinking: “why does this happen to me Why couldn’t it work out for me this time?” I just can’t stand this situation I have To deal With it The pain It was honest of you To say it but still it’s In my mind like a Picture I’ll never forget Alone standing Have to go on Without you to Stand by my side To help me through this life There is an empty place where my love for you once was I felt real positive and good again But now I feel rejected, can’t believe this is happening Caused by some difference between you and me Another moment enlightens my mind like a picture Under full moon and stars we were outside I think about it in a real positive way now I can’t relive it, it’s a pity to say Walking this path Of loneliness While this moment Is gone, forever Never to return again There is an empty place where my love for you once was I felt real positive and good again But now I feel rejected, can’t believe this is happening Caused by some difference between you and me Another moment enlightens my mind like a picture Under full moon and stars we were outside I think about it in a real positive way now I can’t relive it, it’s a pity to say As I close my eyes I see in my mind A vision, follow-up Of pictures, like a video I don’t understand The way you must have thought I wish you’d talked to me About the way you felt inside But now you’re really gone You’ve left me without a trace It feels like pure emptiness I’ll never forget you girl I ride back in the dark night Thinking: “why does this happen to me Why couldn’t it work out for me this time?” I just can’t stand this situation I have To deal With it The pain I hope that one day you will Read this and remember Me as I do you I’ll never forget you, girl

Why does it feel so wrong Those feelings are all gone And now we are without true souls Rely on machines To warn us from harm Old instincts seem gone No longer alert Depending on what we are taught Never to answer our thoughts Afraid to walk out of the line Just follow the rules, don’t ask why Technology wipes Out our natural selves Old instincts are gone No longer alert Depending on what we are taught Never to answer our thoughts Afraid to walk out of the line Just follow the rules, don’t ask why The higher we climb The harder we’ll fall Progression of mankind Swain Island to me Forget about the rules Try to find your own Animal inside Deep down yourself Rely on machines To warn us from harm Old instincts seem gone No longer alert Depending on what we are taught Never to answer our thoughts Afraid to walk out of the line Just follow the rules, don’t ask why Why does it feel so wrong Those feelings are all gone And now we are without true souls

Heartbeat rising, gasping for my breath Burning adrenaline, flowing through my veins Muscles cramping, ready to explode Thoughts of terror enter my brain now I can’t sleep alone at night Wake me up before it dawns Waking up, I’m cold and wet Not knowing where I remain The shallow light of the moon Reveals the colour of the stains I only dreamed of being here So vivid and so real But now my head is clear And fear is all I feel I fear Heartbeat rising, gasping for my breath Burning adrenaline, flowing through my veins Muscles cramping, ready to explode Thoughts of terror enter my brain now The way my body’s responding to my dreams The constant fear stains each time I go to sleep Behind my eyes I am perceiving another reality Although I’m dreaming, my actions are for real Not again, I cannot stop it, please help me, wake me up Give me strength to end this nightmare now Sleeping, dreaming Is this what I feel This nightmare seems so fucking real Dreaming, killing This is what I feel This nightmare is so fucking real Much too real Heartbeat rising, gasping for my breath Burning adrenaline, flowing through my veins Muscles cramping, ready to explode Thoughts of terror enter my brain now I have fear of myself at night Wake me up before it dawns

Careless 06:40
Awakening in a sweat, looking around Complete darkness, blanket thick, not even a sound Countless thoughts are rushing Through my restless mind, a river wild Never thought I’d fall I should have seen it coming Don’t know where I went wrong Left instead of right Staring at this picture Of past times, so secure, clear to see Subconscious reality Today it finally struck me Slapped me in the face, woke me up Abrupt ending of my dreams Awakening in a sweat, looking around Complete darkness, blanket thick, not even a sound Here Opening my eyes, but scared to see What’s become of me now you are gone but Now I now I must take off and fly away First time won’t be flawless, falling downwards Standing up as proud as I can be Knowing I will find what I was looking for Time and time I begged you To listen to my screams, just hear me out You didn’t even care Your happiness, yours only I wasn’t but a doll attached to strings You didn’t even care Expendable means to get Out of your own life as much as you could Now I know there’s more to this Than just to follow the dogmatic path Breaking down Falling hard Realize Never I thought to be here A revelation of my innerself Feelings are submerging From the deepest of my soul Have to be Stronger now Two feet down Never I thought to be here A revelation of my innerself Feelings are submerging From the deepest of my soul Awake Awakening in a sweat, looking around Complete darkness, blanket thick, not even a sound Here Countless thoughts are rushing Through my restless mind, a river wild Never thought I’d fall Today it finally struck me Slapped me in the face, woke me up Abrupt ending of my dreams

“Burn !” I hear the people scream At me, but I can’t see anything Dying inside Numbed by fear and by the pain Awaiting my end, here on this stake Unbearable, the heat of the flames Desperate to fly But chained by fear, insatiable hate Chained by fear, insatiable hate But then, all of a sudden, out of the blue I realize that this isn’t true It isn’t for real It’s just a dream, and I have control Just a dream that I can control Feelings of supremity, power and control Even now don’t leave my soul I know my body will burn But my revenge will find you all Yes my revenge will strike you all A dream, so real, I realize I feel awake, yet the nightmare is still going on Struggling inside A chance to change my destiny “Dead !” fanning their own hatred with their ignorance, fools ! Fear, the power of their dogmas The reason of me parting this earth Flash, smoke and an explosion My body has escaped; Panic overtakes Curse, walls of blazing fire No one can escape, ha ! Escaping real life I make up the rules for this game Lucid dreams Lucid dreams Wish I’d sleep on Never to wake up again Lucid dreams Lucid dreams “Burn !” I hear the people scream At me, yet I can see everything It’s in my mind Not numbed by fear, not by the pain

I’m sitting here all alone I cannot feel myself Drowning in a crushing stream Of thoughts and questions, going berserk Feels like they are playing with me A cute fun toy, that’s all my life is I know, what I did was not so nice, so why don’t I get what I deserve? They have killed me four times before I can’t take this any longer Kill me, end it, no more respites Why don’t they make up their fuckin’ minds It has been too long For me to feel a thing I’m completely drained From reality Within the walls of my mind There’s not a single thought That keeps me going on I’m defeated by the system Falling in the deep, unknown Blackin’ out again A big, black hole, I cry, out loud I can’t take no more My soul Tormented Relentless I remain Confusion Desperation Screaming In silence Capital punishment Exploding in my head My life is all over And yet I am not dead It has been too long For me to feel a thing I’m completely drained From reality At last my day has come I’m to be killed again I sure hope it’s the last My will to live is completely drained I’m sitting here all alone I cannot feel myself Death my Only Way out Of here Yearning For the After Life Capital punishment Exploding in my head My life is all over And yet I am not dead

Locked up in here Though I could go Never feeling free Feels I’m in a play Follow the script No chance to improvise What unwritten rules Tell me to do No chance to improvise No, I cannot restrain myself I have got to tear of these ropes and set myself free Don’t care what they will think, what they will do Today my true self won’t be restrained anymore So now I will release my pain within And replace it with strength to carry out all my dreams My rock will alter this stream, the river must bend Ooh yes, I want to matter, remembered for me! No, I cannot restrain myself I have got to tear of these ropes and set myself free My rock will alter this stream, the river must bend Ooh yes, I want to matter, remembered for me! Locked up in here Though I could go Never feeling free Feels I’m in a play Follow the script No chance to improvise What unwritten rules Tell me to do No chance to improvise I will not be How society wants me So hate me, I just don’t care

Counting stars and not knowing Where I’ll be when this ends The scars of this will be showing A timeless reminance The fight in me is now raging A struggle, everso hard Decisions, I had to take the To choose right from the wrong The pressure was put on me By those who have no remorse After tonight Things no longer Will be the same My destiny So insecure Wish I had full control now After tonight Things no longer Will be the same I question fate Why is it me Wish I had full control now Fear from the inside Is working it’s way out Trying to regain my self-confidence, to be strong After tonight Things no longer Will be the same My destiny So insecure Wish I had full control now Always were told They were the ones The cause of our pain Hatred so deep Dogmatic repulse They are the ones Hate Looking at the clock and Realising this is my time Got less than one hour To prepare for my last fight Fight One night, I clearly remember They came and told me why I had to recover Our dignity, our pride Feeling pain within Cause I am scared to leave tonight Feeling hate within Cause I will have to start my fight Feeling fear within Don’t know where I’ll be tonight Though feeling strong about The outcome of the future fight Decisions, I had to take the To choose right from the wrong The pressure was put on me By those who have no remorse Counting stars and not knowing Where I’ll be when this ends The scars of this will be showing A timeless reminance
