Twilight Zone
03:18
|
|||
Get fucked up to bear reality
Our dark fate is all I see
In the city, so many lights
To hide a sun that's never bright
Buildings like prison walls
Crumbling down, overdose
Shadows behind windows
Vanishing and comatose
Twilight zone, we call it home
Twilight zone, together alone
Dreams turned into dystopia
Filthy walls, permanent nausea
Air soiled by steam and smoke
No joke, it makes me choke
Danger at every street corner
Darkness of a nuclear winter
We see the blood being spilled
In the city, silence stinks guilt
Twilight zone, we call it home
Twilight zone, together alone
Wounded souls, we'd rather be dead
Freed from the bleakness of our heads
Instead, alone we roam
Feeling at home in the twilight zone

Bleak
03:18
|
|||
Am I awake, or still sleeping
Sure thing, death is creeping
Sniffing cocaine to ease pain
Your world is driving me insane
Again, I feel like giving up
I just don't give a fuck
Since the birth of humanity
This world is bleak for all I see
Bleak
Everywhere I look
Everywhere I go
It's bleak
Bleak as reality
Is it real, or am I dreaming?
In my head, voices are screaming
Telling me to end it all
Bang my head against the wall
Mad soul without a choice
My rage is my only voice
Life lived behind a black veil
Can't wait until my body turns pale
Bleak
Everywhere I look
Everywhere I go
It's bleak
Bleak as reality

Solitudinarian
03:36
|
|||
Alone in the dark at night
Smoking and writing rhymes
Fuck our times, I can't stand it
Your world is making me sick
Fighting for the right to exist
Insist to get dismissed
I've tried, but I've given up
Out of weed and out of luck
Better alone than feeling betrayed
Better lonely than being played
Solitudinarian, I'm a solitudinarian
In my own mind, I feel at home
I won't step out of my comfort zone
My body's warm, but my heart's like stone
In this world, better be alone
So I'm lonely, but happy cause free
I'm safe because nobody's like me
And I see, you still don't get it
Solitudinarian, I don't give a shit
Better alone than feeling betrayed
Better lonely than being played
Solitudinarian, I'm a solitudinarian
Solitudinarian since my date of birth
Your world made me like this
And I don't even care
I don't need you
Only myself

Inhumane Nature
03:15
|
|||
I was born in the stench of darkness
Trapped in a cage in a filthy place
Awaiting death amongst corpses
Those like me have no choices
Voiceless, as my throat is slit
My blood drips, hanged by the feet
You call me meat and you swallow me
My graveyard is the human body
Inhumane nature
Inhumane nature
Inhumane nature
Simple and plain, my life was pain
I was born to die for financial gain
I put a name on the practice
Genocide it was, genocide it is
That's how it goes, I am an animal
Inferior being, so killing me is normal
Legal, as species aren't equal
People are evil, the human race is the devil
Inhumane nature
Inhumane nature
Inhumane nature
Inhumane nature
Inhumane nature
Inhumane nature

Voices
03:25
|
|||
Woke up from a nightmare
In the darkness of my lair
I'm running, but going nowhere
Damaged beyond repair
Hope is lost in the midst of vapor
Anxiety bled on a piece of paper
WW3 inside my head
I hear the voices, they want me dead
Voices
Everywhere I go I'm hearing voices
They control the masses
Voices, everywhere I go I'm hearing voices
The midday sun is a deadly trap
With the outside world ready to entrap
Ghosts like us, the misfits, the outcasts
The mentally ill, the iconoclasts
Off on a self-destructive bender
I numb my mind, under pressure
The day goes by, the sky's get darker
And the voices, I hear them louder
Voices
Everywhere I go I'm hearing voices
They control the masses
Voices, everywhere I go I'm hearing voices

Travis Bickle
03:14
|
|||
My eyes burn from the lack of sleep
Drifting alone, six feet deep
Loneliness has followed me
In every street of the city
I'm fully awake in this nonsense
Decay, decline, and decadence
Got some bad ideas in my head
The days go on and on... they don't end
Leave me alone, I'm dead
Destroy and self-destruct
Behind those bricks, we're all fucked
Another night, now I see it clearly
There has never been any choice for me
You see, I'm God's lonely man
Suck on this, shit hits the fan
And tonight I am out again
The whole world will feel my pain
Leave me alone, I'm dead.

Yksinäinen Elämä
03:18
|
|||
Kadut ovat tyhjiä
Ei mitään jäljellä
Luonto kuolee pois
Ihmiset on myrkkyä
Yksinäinen elämä
Kaupungin valoissa
Yksinäinen elämä
Yksin ajatusteni kanssa
Yksinäinen elämä
Kaupungin varjoissa
Yksinäinen elämä
Yksin ajatusteni kanssa
Kadut ovat tyhjiä
Ei mitään jäljellä
Haaveet kuolevat
Verisissä käsissä
Yksinäinen elämä
Kaupungin valoissa
Yksinäinen elämä
Yksin ajatusteni kanssa
Yksinäinen elämä
Kaupungin varjoissa
Yksinäinen elämä
Yksin ajatusteni kanssa
Yksinäinen elämä
Yksinäinen elämä
Yksinäinen elämä
Yksinäinen elämä

Boiling Blood
03:10
|
|||
Standing away from modernity
In the woods by my lonely
I see the world crumbling down
In a fight that can't be won
The system is the enemy
Modern world, inhumane society
Needs created to keep us in line
Same old madness all the time
Boiling blood, I'm filled with hate
On a date with my dark fate
Boiling blood, boiling blood
Boiling blood
Bash the fash, take out the trash
Blow their heads off, in a flash
I wanna see it all explode
Burning fire, choked by smoke
I'm sick of seeing us enslaved
Seeing nature set ablaze
I'm an outcast trapped in torment
In a world made for the one percent
Alone with rage in my veins
I can't take it anymore
Boiling blood, I'm filled with hate
On a date with my dark fate
Boiling blood, boiling blood
Boiling blood

Turn Off The Lights
04:07
|
|||
The moon shines over the skyline
The sky is darker than a coal mine
Cigarettes and a bottle of wine
No more sunshine, the night is mine
Turn off the lights
The fresh air on my bare skin
Eyes closed, feel the feeling
Lurking in the night time
No more daylight, the night is mine
Turn off the lights
Drift and slip as the city sleeps
Night creatures, freaks and creeps
Our hearts beat in the afterhours
Outcasts, the night is ours
Our hearts beat in the afterhours
Outcasts, the night is ours
Turn off the lights
