Reflection
02:48
|
|||
|
There`s something inside, reflections of my own
full of regrets and misery, it`s staring back at me
my mind is falling apart, the glances that hunt me
staring into eyes of hate, blurry visions, no escape
Ref.
Am I insane? This obsession grows when indifference paves the way
Am I insane? This obsession grows when indifference paves the way
Reflection
Far away from paradise, stuck inside my fucking cage
too late for dying screams of fear, for there`s no one to hear
Something`s inside the chaos, screaming in my ear
Don`t try to break the chains, you and me, we are the same
Reflection, reflection – mirrors self-deception
Reflection, reflection – I`m falling apart

Ignorance
02:32
|
|||
|
Burning woods, no salvation
Greed and domination
Polluted earth, shattered dreams
Now you can see how it wreaks
Ref.
Ignorance - open your eyes, they`re made to see
Ignorance – you breed this misery
Starving lives, corrupted nations
Abuse and intimidation
Cremated earth beyond the mind
The time to act is cut like a spine

Fear or Freedom
02:40
|
|||
|
The World turns backwards, there`s no lesson learned
the evil from the past comes back in a new form
spreading doubts to push you in the fog of fear
it`s your decision, trust in fear or choose the freedom...
Ref.
The battle has begun, the evil`s marching on
The battle`s here, it knocks on your door
Don`t be quiet now, don`t be in fear
Fight for freedom, fight for freedom!
The eyes are useless, when the mind is blind
perfidious propaganda and the same old lies
the minds get brainwashed, they paint our future black
with shadows from the past and Auschwitz in their heads...

Gallows and Thorns
03:06
|
|||
|
These walls of thorns that cut right into your flesh
The walls are closing in, until there`s nothing left
Pain from the past has brought you to this place
Watch your life devoured in these walls that you create
Ref.
Where is the salvation?
Just this frustration
Do you hear the gallows call?
Hands full of blood, every breath could be the last
A way, a crack, anything – there must be a path
A light, a rift – is it real or just in my mind?
Trapped inside these walls it`s hard to see with bloodshot eyes

Dull the Pain
01:44
|
|||
|
TELL YOURSELF ANOTHER LIE
U CAN'T SEE THE FUTURE, WHAT'S LEFT BEHIND
YOU'VE GOT TO FALL BEFORE YOU FLY
INCESSANT SEARCHING HAS LEFT YOU BLIND
REF.
WHEN HATE LET YOU FEEL SO ALONE
I´LL PICK YOU UP AND KEEP YOU SANE
WHEN SELF DOUBTS TORN YOU DOWN TO THE BONE
I WILL BE THERE TO DULL THE PAIN
YOU BELIEVED YOU KNEW THIS GAME
AND THOUGHT YOU KNEW THE TRUTH
YOU ALWAYS HOPED YOU WOULDN´T CHANGE
BUT THIS LIFE IS CHANGING YOU

Punx for Punx
02:32
|
|||
|
Here come the slaughters of the material world.
The profit is a disease.
We live our values and that’s what matters.
Equality and unity.
Ref.
Punx for Punx, united we stand
Never surrender, fighting till the end
Punx for Punx, we kick out the scum
You can’t stop us, the underground strikes back!
The streets are ours, time to fight back.
We don’t give a shit for your rules.
You can’t stop us, we are back on the map.
We are Punx - and no fools

Pressure
01:59
|
|||
|
Awaking to another day
I won`t pretend that I`m someone else
Stepping forth starts the way
gears won`t stop turning till my mind`s a hollow shell.
Ref.
What will happen if I fail?
Another wake-up call to the mess I`ve spread?
Am I destroying more than I create?
And what will be left at the end of the next day?
I do my best to stand this race
before my lungs runs out of air
It never mattered anyway
If I win or lose, nobody really cares.

Same in the Sound
02:22
|
|||
|
RUNNING FASTER - FROM - THE END OF YOUR DAYS
ANOTHER CHAPTER IN HUMAN DESTRUCTION
ALL SIGNS OF SOCIETY WILL BE ERASED
REF.
DIFFERENT THOUGHTS BUT SAME IN THE SOUND
SO BITE THE HAND THAT HOLDS YOU DOWN
SEPERATE SOULS BUT ONE IN THE SAME
WE NEVER BREAK, WE SHALL PREVAIL
NO LIBERARTION - THAT - TURN DREAMS INTO HATE
ONE WAY SYSTEMS FAKE SERVING THE PEOPLE
GENERATIONS SCREAM OUT FOR A CHANGE

Circle vs Line
02:08
|
|||
|
Grown up in this world, you can feel the circles.
Like a turn-based game, got up and fallen again.
Over and over the same, got up and fallen again
Working hard and fired for profit.
Hold in trust and brocken promise.
Self-Certainty and grown doubts,
jump ahead and falling back.
Ref.
It’s your decision to live in circles or choose the straight line.
Go straight on use your time and choose the straight line.
Follow your conscience don’t trust in their words.
They wouldn’t know, stand up it’s on you.
Fight for your dreams, they will break the circle.

This Is How It Ends
01:42
|
|||
|
WE PREACHING HOPE WHILE WE DROWN
IN A WORLD WHERE DECENCY IS GONE
WE’RE BURNING EVERYTHING WE MADE
WE REPEAT THE MISTAKES FROM THE PAST
VISIONS OF FUTURE TURN TO DUST
IT´S TIME TO SHAKE THE HANDS OF FATE
Ref.
CULTURES AND FREEDOM WILL DECAY
HEARTS BECOMING NUMB
WHAT HAS ALL OUR ANGER DONE
THIS SELF DESTRUCTIONS WAY
HAS BLACKENED OUR OWN HEARTS
LOOK WHAT ALL OUR HATE HAS DONE
THIS WORLD´S NOTHING MORE THAN A HOLLOW SHELL
SHADOWS REVEAL THEMSELVES
AND SPREADING THE HUMAN DISEASE
A PLAGUE FROM WHICH THERE IS NO ESCAPE
WE’VE RENDERED OUR OWN HELL
AND CAGED OURSELF IN AGONY
