Handcrafted colors of memories That I won't ever see again That I won't value as I used to do back then I'm left to float In current moments And suddenly The past is crashing under my feet It cuts me out Leaving me to listen to my heart and follow its worthless beat All I have - Boxed up stories burning in a flame of times Two zeros on rolling dice If our past wasn't real and no future Then what else do I have left to think of? You came straight into my head And set the bomb, remembering anything And all days slip away and it feels like Short-term memory loss I guess it’s part of maturity Colliding images of me So harsh and so conspicuous, You all could see But why so cold in others' houses? And where should I direct my sail if everywhere’s darkness? Makes no sense To go ahead and look in the past again Knowing you've got no chance All I have is a broken compass, arrow pointing west An I’m seeking the island (sick on the island) Before you build the new You gotta break the old And when you start make sure there’s nothing else to hold It’s all inside your head, it’s breathing in your neck Just try and don’t look back

Breathing life into focus As these memories of you conspire To fill my space Did you know that I'm wanted? All these criminals in me in chains Behind my face I'll be here I'll be here waiting For this moment to pass me by Not a word was spoken And we were so broken So I'm telling you my last goodbye Our eyes were on fire Because they were liars And I can't wake myself up from these Nightmares of you And with all that transpired Lead me to believe your love was so insincere But the way we are wired Gave to endless iterations of, "just one more day" And I again I mourn Your hands

Lonely 03:08
Whatcha doin' lonely? Do you think it's all my fault? I can be here when you call And I'll be here when you don't Whatcha doin' lonely? Do you think your life is real? What's it like inside your walls? What's it like to feel? When your ruined bones are Never given the chance to heal Did you ever stop to think When your mirrors disappeared? Whatcha doin' lonely? Do you think it's all my fault? That you spiraled down that well Where the poison clenched your throat Whatcha doin' lonely? Do you think it's all surreal? When you live inside your head With the windows smeared in fear And I'm coming for you Only to find you're not there Every time we start again Falling ashes never clear

Strange I don't know your name Your voices the blood in my veins Walk on, burst into rain And I hear the rolling Thunder whispers in my ears "You're not alone You're not alone Everyone's waiting for you to return" Maybe I'm entangled with you Maybe these circles will color us new Find me when you learn the truth [Those beautiful scars, pictures like magical dance Will we end up losing it all at once? Let's start pretending we had it all Flowing, falling apart, waiting for our last call]

Aliens 04:17
Undefined, forgotten, left to drown in mysteries Lost in nowhere with hopes for new days As you search - every answer is a room for more fears Do you hear them laugh from far away? Stay strong. There is no one to light this shady path No map, no rules, no masters here in Your life. You know we don’t belong here. Should we fight? Should we speak? Should we care? 'Cuz we are aliens anywhere All shapes match your Transmitters-receivers I count to four And open my eyes. Was it real? Was the backstage Exactly what I thought it was What is worse: thoughts, intentions or actions? To be honest, I always thought that answers come with time But I’m building castles of delusions It feels safer to pretend it’s all fine Than to stray in darkness as my time runs I hope to escape this maze and fly above the clouds And burn wings to fall but make it worth all my life You know we don't belong here Should we try? This is all so intense We are aliens, aliens We rise and we fall From reaching sky to denial I'm shaping it all in words to show you all my world To wander between selections For what it's worth For what it's worth

Melancholia 02:11

Floating all alone Through the monotone Whispers in my ears Moving still This world looks the same The smell a shade of grey I caught you in your sleep Or was that me? Curiosity Haunting me I can't believe you'd think that I was real Diamonds in your eyes Bending light My mind was bathed in colors of the night Teeming with regret I will find you yet My thoughts will always flow Through your walls And never will you know What I was looking for For words are only stares Through the glare Curiosity Haunting me I can't believe you'd think that I was real Your velocity Breaking me I can't believe I'd think that you were here

Like yesterday never came Ever-fixed lights mark all our days In space Slow motion in surround Your eyes eclipse The flickers and the sound Alone with me Spin me into your web again Keep us suspended in this place In space Slow motion in surround Your eyes eclipse The flickers and the sound Alone Afterimage of you Comes bleeding through You're the redshift to my supernova Light the fuse Our nights in space Slow motion in surround Your eyes eclipse The flickers and the sound Alone.. With me.. Alone..

Medicine 04:32
By now I remember nights we were drunk and bitter, But it’s okay We're all playing games to lose, begging for extension We fade away. And you pull and push, you lie without a sound Make me feel right and slightly bring me down Whenever you come The sun will rise again to set another scene Percolate through your surface, I want you here I want you not to be afraid Come closer, baby, did you take your medicine? Sincerity is our therapy And I hope that you can be a friend It only counts if you play the part of who you are In only counts (Our worlds collide) Your only way To take the path of happiness We feel alive (Tonight we feel alive) Afraid, we’re hiding in these walls, playing by their rules So much to give We're all already dead if we don’t give ourselves A chance to live. Come closer, baby, I could be your supplement To escape from this circus A therapy And I hope that you can be a friend.

Transnistria 04:02
Come away with me I'll show you everything All the in-betweens Are wading in your sea Anchors tied Find us and imbue Planets align Inside of you Holding on to you (Break the silence) Bleeding black and blue Nearing amplitude (Cut this pretense) Frequencies collude Pulling at the seams I'm falling in your dreams Mental anarchy Soaked in apathy Bending time Meaning to obscure Maritime fleeting overture The world's a stage A silver screen A masquerade Bleed the fifth And render Them timeless
11.
Untangle me From all that I see The paths keep folding under my feet Where will we go? Will time ever show? The parallels of what became I don't want to be a fool for you anymore I don't want to be the cure that you're looking for Hidden lines to Hypnotize you But you're branching off again Closing this door Opened evermore Reflections stretching towards the end Climbing the stairs Suspended in air To the lighthouse where this all began All of the eyes that surround you in vain All of the smiles engulfing in flames All of them patterns of me overlaid Chasing the ghosts of a love in decay
12.
In every crumb of your delusion Destructive shine that’s impossible to deny The fake play with a lowered curtain Evidence of the crime You could feel a lie I'm always in too deep in your eyes It makes me scared How did we end up with such lies deep in the shade? Difference baring Up to war Declaring Growing Drawing lines Between you and me Splitting into teams to compete Carving up our lands Different kinds We're better on our own Touching grids awkwardly, oh-oh Stepping back in cells, releasing hands Too big and old to fight it Life is change and change decays The game has simple rules: Split into halves again Put down your hands and pray This never changes too much Until we're gone Who said we are born enemies? Who said it's wrong? Thinking, looking For truth in eyes instead of news Sadly, we are Disregarding fate Clutching to the thought that no way, You weren't born for hate You weren't born to feel what they say Disregarding fate Clutching to the thought that no way, This world wasn't made for hate You don’t have to obey Slowly dying, fading..

Waiting for the night to pave the way Letting go of what I became Towards you the evening sways Rearranging themes of your play Oh, I can see you're a runaway Oh, just imagine getaway Oh, all our senses ricochet Fragments of our memories Passing through me Dungeons of time shaping all my perspective Every sign is telling you where to go And what it's like to be "real" Don't believe them Let us stay on our way To the light We won't stop I can see you're a runaway Following Ariadne's thread I know we can bring an end to days where Our voice is pushed aside leaving our hearts paralyzed I know we can make it to a place where We can carry on our lives with no sense of compromise I know we can bring an end to days where Our thoughts are circumscribed leaving our minds neutralized I know we can.. Oh, I can see you're a runaway I know we can Trace to where this began Ignite the chains And watch it all burn down
