Another day to watch the fucking world burn down
Another road, another chance to get out of this town
Another generation gonna burn down to the ground
In search of new ambition and in search of better sound
Another proof there is no truth that I can share with you,
But I’ll keep trying anyway it’s half of what I’ll do
Another day and I’ll be dead, one day and I’ll be gone
But let’s keep singing anyways that’s why I wrote this song
Chorus:
Is this another way to stay in the flow
To search for another way to see how this can go
And is this another failed attempt to stop the flow of time
Then forget when it’s time to go I’ll have to go again
Another meal, a better deal, another pile of shit
Another girl, another twirl, I thought that this was it
Another ruined happy ending, turned another page
Another day, another year, another brand-new age
Another fall, another calling, oh, another task
Another word, that’s just absurd, a question I might ask
And does this moment trigger you, or is it just for fun
And does this here make sense to you, and would you sing along
Chorus
Another face, another place, another trick, another trace, another track, another subtle hint that I should grow a six-pack, and I’m on my way, another person that I was the other day when I said all those silly things, but I still think that we grow wings
Another verse, another curse, another crack, another person on my back, its getting worse to stay on track, this track is running fast downhill, I’m speeding up, another way to reach full stop, there’s fire in the old wind mill, but water flows and rain is still here
Another war worth fighting for, let’s look the other way,
Another price I can’t afford, I’ll make those bastards pay
Another scene another sin, another game that I might win
Another situation, and another wheel to spin
Chorus
-
Stuck in a rot these grey walls they’ve got something on you
You’re wearing that smile like a hanged man’s who’s hung for a while
You walked in this trap, this dream made of crap, it got you, too
And now you must do what he wants you to so fuck you
You’re one man in line for a moment sublime when it’s all worth it
And you’re starting to think, it’s a lie, a good reason to drink
Now habit is stuck, your soul’s losing weight and you’re getting fat
And you blame the world for your life and your name, well, so what?
So, what is this life, stuck in an alibi
Afraid to be born, afraid to move on
Too scared to live, too proud to die
The brain in your skull is incredibly dull and your feeling mean,
You’d like to confess some crime of excess, but you’re clean
Your blue has turned dirty your yellow is dark and your heart is just a thing
And you wish you had done something worth something or anything
And the harvest you sow is the harvest you’ll reap it’s a barren heap
You’d like to explain that there is no such thing as pain
Now you’re stuck in this statuesque movement of standing perfectly still
And you’re wearing that smile like a hanged man who’s hung for a while
So, what’s the hanged man’s dance, round you go stuck in a trance
Never waking up, never going down
A smile as dark as the moon is round
-
There is a shout
As silence dries out
There is a desperate seeking the rain in this meaningless drought
Soon to give in
Let emptiness win.
Sunrise, sunset
Future forgets
Pasts of regret
Nothing is lost
And nothing remains
Everything crumbles to pieces
The patterns resemble a name
A pain that disturbs
The ears that have heard
Sunrise, sunset
Pasts of regret
Future forgets
Come join in the holy circle
Nothing is nothing
And nothing is perfect
The struggle, the striving
The flowering, dying
A thorn, a rose is born
Come join in the holy journey
Everything's everything
Seasons are turning
Remember, forgetting
The dead are all rotting in the ground
Gravity's round
Yet there is still
A love a will
Hear the heart beating the drum
For the world that should come
And it will
So, love to my friends
That dance to the end
And love to the sun
That loves everyone
Love to the suffering, struggling
Love to my days as they run
Out in the sand
As living demands
-
Can you feel it moving in mind and then matter will shake
A fragment of reason is absolute treason, it’ll break
From their ways, easy payments and bland entertainments and fraud
When they sell their dust in the deserts the devil applauds
Can you close your eyes when the capitalize on disease
When they grow their power each hour they’re threatening peace
Its our world they betray and the righteous will say: this means war.
When we go to their towers, we show them what anger is for
Chorus:
When the wind is blowing stronger and the storm is getting closer
And a shadow’s growing longer but the sun is standing high
And our hearts are beating faster and our world is moving closer
To the brink of disaster, some will live and some will die
Can you feel it’s coming to get you, it comes for us all
If you wish to join them you can, it’s your right, it’s your call
But if you want to fight it, don’t stand for it, don’t let them lead,
Don’t accept that the greatest of values is psychotic greed
And our nations and civilizations are trapped in a game
A game which will starve us and trap us and kill, it’s insane
Can you feel it’s enough now, be tough now, be strong it is you
Who thinks, acts and feels, this is real so then what will you do?
-
So, you sit at my table, you think it’s available
Well, everyone knows: this is my place
And I’m back with my drink, you say “Hey”, well, I think
You’re a bitch and I spit into your face.
You come into my bar, who do you think you are?
And I don’t take your presence here lightly,
You’re not more man than me, you’re just pretending to be,
So, get out, or stand up and fight me
Get out, or stand up and fight me
A knife up my sleeve, says you better leave,
Before I make your woman a widow
But a kick in my balls makes me crumble and fall
And I’m picked up and thrown out the window
I fly through the glass, and I land on my ass,
Now I’m covered in wet mud and I see
You’re storming out and you scream and you shout
Well, stay down or get up and fight me
Stay down or get up and fight me
I admit I am scared and I don’t want to be here,
I cry and I beg your forgiveness,
You demand I stand up, like a man, but I’m not,
I’m a cowardly dog and I’m spineless
And up on my legs, you grab me by the neck
And you pull me in close, you are wild-eyed,
Then my left hand delivers my knife to your liver,
And I twist it and whisper “Now you die”
I twist it and whisper “Now you die”
I stab you again and you scream like a woman,
The moon is smiling so brightly,
I stand over your body as you’re bleeding out slowly
Well, now you know you shouldn’t fight me
Now you know why you shouldn’t fight me
-
You tried your best to walk away, from past behaviors, looking for a psychoanalytical perspective
But focusing on why you’re weak is playing weakness greatest trick, you went where self-determination can’t live.
Chorus:
My brother this I wrote for you, I do not know if this is true,
I wrote this song, knowing that I cannot understand.
My brother I apologize if I offend or if I lie,
I see you as a drowning man, seeking solid land.
But soon the time for your own fate a dandelion child grows great through pavement and through stones and trough concrete
You are your own worst enemy so raise yourself and then be free but I’m not saying to forgive or forget
Two years gone but now you’re back again,
Did you miss the poison in you veins?
Did you fool yourself, do you believe,
The best life you can live is lived in pain relief.
And though your pain will always be your pain,
The love we love and choose will always be the same
And though your cross is your own cross to bear
You’re not alone your brothers will always be there
It would make your struggle worth it your addiction to your own shit can be turned to diamonds in the sunlight
Our sun will always shine on you, you cast a shadow this is true but every man must live in both day and night
Chorus
-
I curse this poisoned mirror, made me lonely in my head
Forced to look the other way but I’m not even dead
I try to reach up higher, but I’m failing all the time
And looking back to you I find this shadow must be mine
All the best intentions swallowed, drained me from my soul
And I fell back on old illusions, habits I am told.
Oh, do I love this feeling, when I’m falling from my high
And should I love this shadow just like life should love to die
This shadow of a drowning man, drunk himself to shadowland
A shadow with his shadow hand, it’s my conscious shadow
I bless this poisoned liquor, as I pour another drink
Reflections in the liquid makes a good man stop to think
So let me see what’s wrong in me, what’s rotten in my heart
Let me come back broken, scarred and scared of shadows art
This shadow of a drunken man, drowned himself in shadow and
A shadow in a shadow band, it`s my sinking shadow
-
I came down here to see you, I watched you crawl in the mud
I came down from the heavens, you rose up from the blood
Time will come, time will pass, together alone, together at last
I am the fire that haunts you, the flame that burns the moth’s wings
And you must seek me and perish, or deny the hope that He brings
Death will come, death will pass, together as one, the first moment of past
I came down like an angel, you rose up as an ape
His is the freedom we’ll fight for, yet His love we can never escape
Hail the king, hail his crown, together we’ll sing and together we’ll drown
And God looked in His secred mirror, He wished for what He could see
A single moment, a thousand eons as flowers drifting at sea
And Adam left the mindless garden, he mixed his dust with wine
And Cain rode forth and with his armies he taught us to worship like swine
Hail the king, hail his plan, you will grow wings you are angels of sand
I was seeded by spirit, and you my love are giving birth
My birth will rip you to pieces, your soul will stain the red earth
Time has come, prayers been heard, give me your moment, I’ll give you the Word
I came down here to marry, you came up to be free among us
Our love is nailed to our being, as Christ is nailed to the cross
Wake my child, morning`s come
-
No more ashes, no more broken skin
Easy lives when the devil wins
No more hearts and no more sins
Easy live is the hell I’m in
Close your eyes to the starry skies
Empty space where meaning dies
Close your eyes when the questions rise
Empty space, and the devil’s lies
Money chains and money lies
Honor’s cheap and children die
Money chains and money lies
Money kills, money justifies
Medicine against your soul
Paint your spirit black as coal
Medicines to fill your whole
Pleasure`s single sacred goal
And I`m walking, feet are hurting
Heat distorting, road I’m on
Hell is talking, to me burning
Keep on, walk this road I’m on
In my brain and in my bones
The devil’s road is the road I’m on
In my brain and in my bones
The devil’s road is the road I’m on
-
My dearest friends, this is our time now
So, straighten your spines, oh Lord, we go to this war
What’s worth living for, go on one day more
And in us, wonderous, wonderful weight
The hour is late, the moment is now
And we`ll have to go, oh Lord, when your storm blows
Your wind in our sails, through misty veils
And in us, wonderous, wonder at this
It is what it is, it’s madness and reason
The years and the seasons of earth, the bloodbath of birth
It is what it is, this sadness is reasoned
The sexual treason of thirst, a world that must burst
My greatest love, lift up thy head now
Soon we’ll be dead, oh Lord, but first we’ll live
This life He gives and in what we do
And in us, wonderous, love must be willed
And we have to build and we have to sow now
With sweat from our brows, oh Lord, this plow is a sword
And give to it all and rise through its falling
And with us, wonderous, fill this abyss
It is what it is, it’s joyous and sorrow
Existence must borrow it’s aim from hunger and pain
It is what it is, with joys and with sorrows
Ridiculous arrows of hope this world on a rope
The egg that must crack, is starting to break now
We live on its shell, oh Lord, this breaking is hell
If this day goes well, this life will be over
And we’ll burn to return to your midnight hour
Through mystical power, our morning is born now
Your sun will start, oh Lord, in every heart
In every child’s eyes and realize
Love is His pain and bliss, it is what it is
It is what it is, and love is it’s baseline
Eternity’s time’s always near, existence is here
It is what it is, so be brave in your fears
We live with this destiny’s kiss, it is what it is
