Cold Words

another day, another year
stop and see that nothing has changed.
it's a continuous winter,
the seasons don't change.
another sunset on the orizon.
the eyes get accustomed to darkness...
falling...another wound
get up, but with another scar.
"cold words" - to fill the silence
"cold words" - to make sense of the "nonsense"

On Air

a shining blade, ready to cut.
indirect malice, almost morbid.
like a river, breaking its banks.
sweeps everything away.
spotlights on the pain,
an exclusive on tragedy

No Escape
01:40

there are no (more) barriers to cross
all i have in common with uncontrollable
and the insane, the vicious and the evil.
all the mayhem i've caused
and my utter indifference toward it,
i have now surpassed.
my pain is constant and sharp,
i don't hope for a better world for anyone.
in fact, i want my pain to be inflicted on the others.
i want no one to escape.

Too Late
01:13
|
|

karma, cold and unyielding,
knocks on the door to return the crap you left.
it's useless to try
to turn off the fire you have lighted.
too late to cry, too soon to die.
this is not the world you want,
but the world you deserve.
you continue to pretend, you don't wanna see
to convince yourself that everything is going well
...it's too late for your tears
over a world that is falling apart.
too late to cry, too soon to die.

Lights Out
01:35
|
|
||
|
turng up the volume on a silent movie,
you're talking over your own echo.
for every idea that comes to you,
something goes off...
...curtains falls, the lights go out.
superfluous words that leaving room
for empty stares.
once we would have called it "interesting",
now we label it as "boredom".
once on the top, there's nothing but downhill.
the curtain falls, the lights go out.

you know that this peace won't last long
they'll follow you everythwere, like beasts.
they don't give up the prey,
tough, stubborn, ruthless.
they don't know tiredness.
they don't know resignation.
they already know what they want.
"ignorance is strength" - aless tight loop.
"war is peace" - is this your better life?
the torment of free choice
is the sound of chains of slavery

the end of history, the end of mankind?
are you serious?
it's the distant events the anxiety,
greedy for imminent disasters,
want to precipitate at any cost.
or just, the easiest way,
to put an end to your failures
without the need to justify.

Citizens Of Fear

features are flabby, in shifty glances,
there's no flash of rebellion,
bitter from the birth.
yoiu can already know what the will become
in the best case, like them, citizens of fear.
they would only feel hatred only for those
who would steal the food from their mouth.
in the best case, like them citizens of fear.

Smoke In The Eyes
02:28
|
|
||
|
wandering througt the days,
like a whore in a world without sidewalks.
these roads have left their mark,
a crack in the asphalt, a cut on the skin.
smoke in the eyes,
another tear cancels out a smile.
smoke in the eyes,
waiting to fill the emptiness withing you.
these cold walls painted only by the colors
of heads keep smashing against them.
this place isn't to quiet,
it's only the sound of footsteps of mediocrity.
