some things tend
to stay the same
even nowadays
shoes get stepped through
before they get out of style
before they get out of style
if you think those are not two
sides of the same coin
take a closer look at the
ruse waiting for impulse
ruse lurking for impulse
bent concerns
in certain eyes
offering a hand
in this unique
hell of a trying time
hell of a trying time
it is known that when its right
iʼm not even fit
to lift my hand
and reclaim what is mine
reclaim what is mine
cultivate your own cult
its vegan and free of charge
let me ease you in x4
drowning the certainty
of it all being so cheap
let me ease you in x4

Mind Can't Hide
04:34

scared by the perspective
of bended knees and smiles
man donates a fraction
manʼs a saint for life
and i sit here in awe
watching how it all goes
flying straight back into his hands
i dont go for feelings
that my face canʼt hide
someone elseʼs reading
might keep me inside
the meaningʼs always lost
twisted to a point
try and figure out the costs
have you ever had
a certainy at heart
have you ever seen
waters too shallow to sink
antibodies too lazy
those are the thoughts
that my mind canʼt hide
gaze into abstracton
make sense of it all
in a way its taking
in until downfall
behaviors have been said
to leave the beaten path
zero interest in the aftermath
have you ever had
a certainty at heart
have you ever seen
waters too shallow to sink
antibodies too lazy
those are the thoughts
that my mind canʼt hide

Like A Ghost
03:39
|

|
receding
into oblivion
no use in trying to cope with change
theyʼre waving me away
deletion
of disagreement
screwdriver eyes beam through my burnt chip
all whatʼs dear to me
down the drain and waved goodbye
morse code complaining
acid aridity
cultural intensity
portal
getting warmer
as i screw my eyes into it
itʼs forest bit by bit
canʼt help to
see double-dealing
decisions made based on which side
the wind blows from
cracking jokes all the way down
code complaining
algy aridity
cultural intensity

Rooftop
04:09
|

|
sold to the wrong side
someone couldʼve told them
to falter
oh the desertors
travelling free and fast
on the highway
deathwave
comes through your front door
you should have been looking
for shelter
no big surprise
a secret shouted from
every rooftop
imminent threat
in your own house, in the garden
deathwave
in the neighborhood, all over town
tightening belt
outside the frontiers, and spreading beyond
deathwave
countdown forever
sleigh ride into dusk
all eyes closed
whos laughing harder?
the finish line has been
out of sight all the time
cold sweat and shivers
oh itʼs getting tight
smaller frontiers
countdown forever
gazing outside
oh itʼs getting tight
smaller frontiers
big secret shouted
from every rooftop

Suitcase Scenario
03:07
|
|||
|
when you came i
was lost for words
and the nature
had itʼs grip on me
and the project
suitcase risen
loosened my mind
and my vision
private holding
as far as you want
as the eye can see
the hand can comprise
zoom out pinch
screen broadens your
field of vision
land of your choice

Roadkill
05:09
|
|||
|
scrap contorted on both sides
of the highway, black as night
straight and loose only us have the right
to use it knowing full well whats the price
alien in collective might
each a world gripped to their side
but no ability to face the crime
grasping for interest on what waits outside
leaving traces that span
forward marking our path
deep-carved straight traces
base for future highways
master builder out of sight
zooming out on broad daylight
up to the fields he will comb into style
every curve will become a straight line
leaving traces that span
forward marking our path
deep-carved straight traces
base for future highways

A Deeper Meaning
05:38
|
|||
|
space lord, shifting
point of interest
every second
triggering insurgency
leader
of vast areas
calls on fearless
hitmen, screaming
time god, counting
pricey losses
wrought upon all
who had led them
trophies
of the past pain
in the place i
used to live my quiet life
thereʼs a heavy finding
in a place so eerie
thereʼs a deeper meaning
in the way words
fold out by themselves
i mistook a
satellite dish
for the moon and
wasnt thrown back
until they
told me to go
back to where i
used to live my quiet life
quiet life, quiet life
thereʼs a heavy finding
in a place so eerie
thereʼs a deeper meaning
in the way words
fold out by themselves

Heavy Culture
03:47
|
|||
|
sometimes
sometimes i really feel the urge
to buy things online, online
theres no limit, no end and no rules
besides the price
find me in front of the screen
trying to figure out why
i can see the ghost of heavy culture
lying down on me x4
inside
inside i feel the need to force
my ways upon these times
distorted times
perspective always dependant on your own
state of mind
find me staring at the screen
trying to figure out if
they can see the ghost of heavy culture
lying down on them x4

Warm Sand
04:54
|
|||
|
wandering alone down-scroll eye-lid
white teeth on a sun-side terrace
lives on the brink of perfection
missing heirloom blurs the vision
the warm sand between your fingers
is made of bones, grinding steel
you see what else you can do
see what else you will stumble upon
bad advice accepted
mistake forgiven
warm sand in your hands and below your feet
out for a while and bock for more
banned outside of every screen
thrown outside the realm of feels
oh you must be on your own
coping with sensory
deprivation oh you must
be on your own
surely there is a way to get
woven into the great fabric
stare at patterns for a while
burn it down on the way
back
to
square
one
