Limbo

Not that I know how
But my days go by
And I've been sinking, overthinking
Just how to rewind the flow of time
Yet I know only to desaturate
Everything already bleak and grey
Denying peace of mind
Happiness left behind
Nothing for you is ever good enough
Better quarantine that wasted life
That wasted life
Day by day
I'm suffocating
And bringing down the end of me
Never mind what tomorrow's gonna be
All I hear is but a same old melody
Uttering
That still I am stuck in a limbo
Stuck in a limbo
A pendulum of buried honesty
Swings away another lucid dream
A selfish alibi
Only to clarify
A family recipe for a broken heart
Better cover up your ignorance
With a mask
With a mask
Day by day
I'm suffocating
And bringing down the end of me
Never mind what tomorrow's gonna be
All I hear is but a same old melody
Uttering
That still I am stuck in a limbo
So Is this, is this
A pandemic of your own recklessness
That's spreading through your veins?
Day by day
I'm suffocating
And bringing down the end of me
Never mind what tomorrow's gonna be
All I hear is but a same old melody
Uttering
That still I am stuck in a limbo
Stuck in a limbo
So tell me, tell me
Is there a vaccine for my loneliness?

To Waves You Belong
04:10
|

|
I'm counting days to the melody
Of your voice, that eventually
Will be nothing but a memory
We're both afraid to say
That all this has to end
Sea will wash away
Everything we had
The anchor we both shared
I will watch you go
While the waves will make you slowly disappear
And I'll be left forsaken, masquerading
It's all okay and this is how it's meant to be
Go
That this is how it's meant to be
I just wish I had more time
To find the flaws behind your eyes
So it's easier to say goodbye
Yet we both masquerade
Tomorrow's not the day
When you'll sail away
On sails with no regrets
No regrets
I will watch you go
While the waves will make you slowly disappear
And I'll be left forsaken, masquerading
It's all okay and this is how it's meant to be
This is how it's meant to be
That you're not lost to the sea
So here we are
I'm here to stay
And you're the one to sail away
Lost to the waves
Both you and me
A shipwreck always meant to sink
So here we are
I'm here to stay
And you're the one to sail away
Lost to the waves
Both you and me
A shipwreck always meant to
I will watch you go
While the waves will make you slowly disappear
And I'll be left forsaken, masquerading
It's all okay and this is how it's meant to be
This is how it's meant to be
And I'm sorry girl, that I won't tag along
'Cause it's to the waves
That you belong

Beacon
04:15
|
|||
|
So far away
Have we gone
While the world led us astray
We fought our way home
Every time I thought
I was given up, given up
I always knew
That you're my beacon in the dark
And everything that we've been through
Will never define me or you
I know there's nothing that we both can't do
When all hopes go away you're always there for me
Helping me justify who I'm supposed to be
And I feel obligated
To being hurt and hated
When I'm given up, given up
I always know
That you're my beacon in the dark
And everything that we've been through
Will never define me or you
I know there's nothing that we both can't do
There is nothing that we both can't do
I know it's hard
When you're looking back
Thinking how many scars your heart can ever take
That's when I'm there to say
It's all gonna be ok
Much better than yesterday
We know our paths
were never littered with gold
Same as those empty words that we both have been told
But we will cast it all away
We will banish all succubi
Banish all succubi of this world
When I'm given up, given up
I always know that you're my beacon in the dark
And everything that we've been through
Will never define me or you
I know there's nothing that we both can't do
'Cause we both have our lights to follow
'Cause we both have our lights to follow
A beacon we both have in each other

Borneo
03:44
|
|||
|
I always dreamt of seeing the polar lights
To make amends for all the time I've lost
To visit oceans, out in the open
Ride the dunes of the lands so golden
To see the vastness of the world unfold
Before my eyes
Yet instead I'm
Locked away in cell of my mind
'Cause walls in this cell are so rigid
And I've built them instead of bridges
I hide away within this prison cell
Afraid to say that I'm too broken to go
Looking out over to the yonder
All the way, go past the horizon
Instead of being put to shame
I'll stand up and say
Here I go
To find my Borneo
Where I'll be, where I'll be
Remains written on my walls for now
Who I'll be, who I'll be
But a pilgrim on my way to find
A secret compass to navigate my life
To stand up and say
Here I go
To find my Borneo
To escape the state of my mind
That's been eating me from the inside out
To leave the cell behind
To see the temples out in the jungle
Get lost in Bermuda Triangle
To se the mountains rise over the clouds
Right after I
Break away from cell of my mind
Break walls in this cell that's so rigid
And instead of them I'll build bridges
Where I'll be, where I'll be
Remains written on my walls for now
Who I'll be, who I'll be
But a pilgrim on my way to find
A secret compass to navigate my life
To stand up and say
Here I go
To find my Borneo
To escape the state of my mind
That's been eating me from the inside out
To leave the cell behind
To leave the cell behind

Gala Dubious
03:21
|
|||
|
I lead the way
Thinking I've known enough
Of this cliché
This fable I've overdone
Fable I've overdone
This is an oddity, a lunacy
It is a wicked ball that wasn't meant to be
I dance around the laughter
That should have been mine
I contemplate hereafter
And waltz around the things I should have done now
Unless somebody holds me down
I will crown the king of doubt
And anything I might feel now is
But despair and fear of what's yet to be
Or should have been
And anything you might do now is
To help me breathe silently
This is a pageant of anxiety
It is a promenade of how I don't believe
In any step that I take
And how I always hesitate
And anything I might feel now is
But despair and fear of what's yet to be
Or should have been
And anything you might do now is
To help me breathe silently
To the melody
I'm led astray
by my own disbelief in a gown of haste
So here we are
Together we're bound to waltz around
This dubious gala
King of doubt waltzes around
And as good as this dance might be
I will collapse it from within
I'll always be stepping on feet
Feet of who I wanna be

Hollow
03:11
|
|||
|
Shackled up in your own home now
Forbidden to let go
Blessed by the light of a fallen star
You glow
And I'll never know, and I'll never know now
What it's like to hold you anymore
Why did it have to find you
And I'll never go, and I'll never go now
I'm never gonna leave you anymore
I will be right behind you
Why of all the pure souls, why
Why did it have to be yours
Why does waiting feel like an old man's frown
Feels like it's never gone
All the pain with no meaning
Is the one that binds you
It remains, so deceiving
Like the life without you
So where's the reason?
For these hollow binds
The ungodly treason
That scarred all your life
And I'll never know, and I'll never know now
What it's like to hold you anymore
Why did it have to find you
All that pain with no meaning
The one that binds you
And all the pain remains so deceiving
Like the life without you
Without you

Woekeepers
03:40
|

|
So here we are
We're the Woekeepers
Here comes another gloomy fall dejection
Better embrace it all
Another day with something in the air
That's bringing out despair
I guess it's meant to be, to dwell inside of me
To tell me this is my reality
It's like a storm of desolation
In which we're marching on
We keep marching on
Against all odds we're together
Chanting hymns that to us matter
We are the voices that echo on
Into the mist below
We go, we go, we go
Yet we still sing along
This ballad of our downfall
We know, we know, we know
Learning all there is to know
Through the pain and woe
Against the will of those who still justify their own means
Up this hill
Our thoughts are purified of the needs that bind us down
We lay the path against everything that's to be said and done, 'cause
Against all odds, we're together
Chanting hymns that to us matter
We are the voices that echo on
Into the mist below
We go, we go, we go
Yet we still sing along
This ballad of our downfall
We know, we know, we know
Learning all there is to know
Through the pain and woe
We're choking on this feeling
That decides and makes us whole
Yet still disappearing
To where we do belong
We draw the naivity from our thoughts
We go, we go, we go
Yet we still sing along
This ballad of our downfall
We know, we know, we know
Learning all there is to know
Through the pain and woe

Stranded on the shores of lethargy
I despise all that I'm meant to be
An empty descendant of my remaining sanity
Who wept as the poison spread
I try to find
My own desire
In parallels of the days, so dark
I carry the light
I carry this omen on my back
Hemispheres are being torn apart
Like the canvas of my state of mind
So blank and dry
I feel my fantasy slipping away
From back and white to nothingness
And then the canvas stays the same
Same
I try to find
The one true color
Motivations starting to collide
An allegory of a broken mind
Witness this shattering icon
A poem with no rhymes
A song with no bars
A play with no parts
I write
I feel my fantasy slipping away
From back and white to nothingness
And then the canvas stays the same
I'm giving it all, afraid to say
That I'm starting to understand
This void that fills my
Head
I try to find
The world that's under

Pixelated Vows
02:36
|
|||
|
You peel your eyes
To the ground
Disguised you keep
Harnessing your solitary cyanide
You hold inside
Hoping that you might be someone else
Maybe like that pretty picture you took of yourself
Blinded by the world outside
With nothing to lose
Not willing to justify
That you're the one to choose
Not to be an imprint of all that you have left
Of all the things that you've always said
You hide yourself
From world around if nothing else
You roam around in emptiness
You blind yourself
With pixelated vows you see
You slowly left reality
Far behind
Yet you still push yourself through the crowd
Neglecting all your surroundings, you run
From all your problems, all your lies, into your vice, to your demise
And then if somebody stands in your path
You run them down for there is nothing that might show you how
You might live your life
You hide yourself
From world around if nothing else
You roam around in emptiness
You blind yourself
With pixelated vows you see
You slowly left reality
Far behind
Now - it's time
To loose you vows
To draw the line
Step aside

House of Glass
05:49

Who am I to tell you to know
To follow those things you've let go
A nihilistic, egoistic soul you've met before
I wish to make you see
Past you dignity
To go ahead and not to become... well... me
But who you deserve to be
I'm sorry I can't let you know
That days that await you will crush you like those times before
To tell you that scars on your heart
Won't heal over night
Won't heal over night
Over the somber lines as far as you can read
I'll build this house of glass to trap your misery
I'll be that lost childishness, you really miss
I'll be your catalyst
Like a phantom in the mist
I'm sorry I can't let you know
That days that await you will crush you like those times before
To tell you that scars on your heart
Won't heal over night
Won't heal over night
They won't head over night
Shards of suspense lurk inside
Trapped within that house of glass
Push them back
Through the lines sent back in time
Some people feel
Like they don't deserve love
They walk away quietly into the empty spaces
Trying to close the gaps of the past
Who am I to tell you to know
How will it feel tomorrow
Will house of glass stand or collapse
Or will you close it's door
I know that it can be
Hard to remedy
But all I want is you to believe
I built this house of glass for you
I built this house of glass for you
I built this house of glass for you
I built this house of glass for you
Who am I to tell you to know
To follow those things you've let go
A nihilistic, egoistic soul you've met before
I wish to make you see
Past you dignity
To go ahead and to become me
I built this house of glass for you
I built this ho
Use of glass for you
I built this house of glass for you
I built this house of glass
For you
