DOOMED
do you still believe in the lies now
are you still denying it's our fault
tell me who else is to blame
that the world is burning?
hold on tight as the water is rising
close your eyes its a bitter goodbye when
the dams are breaking, flood is washing away
what we built with our hands for our kids, for ourselves
and i still believe
that we'll make it out alive
that we still can do the right things
yeah i still believe
that some day we will unite
that somehow we still can save this
this is not my own war, this shit is political
but change is unpopular so we leave it to solve
for further generations, oh how they will hate us
for living our lifes at their expense
we are doomed beyond repair
too far in, still too comfortable to care
we borrowed time that we didn't have
we lied to ourselves
we made this too easy
we are doomed beyond repair
finally awake now you stare in despair
your hesitation gets us all killed
this shortsightedness is the root of all evil
the privileged life made you lazy and blind
this indecisiveness got us into this mess
and i wanna believe in a better place
and i wanna believe that there's a chance for change
that somehow we can still save this
and i wanna say that i've tried everything
to prevent the desaster from happening
that somehow we can avoid this
this is not my own war, this shit is political
but change is unpopular so we leave it to solve
for further generations, oh how they will hate us
for living our lifes at their expense
chorus
do you still believe the lie
are you still in denial
tell me who else is to blame
that the world is burning?
you say there's nothing you can do
but you'll say whatever suits you
just watch the fires burn
maybe we've passed the point of no return
do you still believe the lie
are you still in denial
tell me who else is to blame
that the world is burning?

ALIEN
you humans
why are you so confusing
all the books in the world
all the things i was told
prepared me for nothing
so lost, i was hoping
to watch from afar
until it all becomes clear
till i can see a pattern
but it all seems so random
i need an instruction
for the appropriate reaction
and any interaction
cause whenever i'm just watching
you find that odd and disturbing
you ask questions
and i don't know
how to explain it best
i'd hold my brain out in my hand
but surely you won't understand
I'm an alien
only in human skin
trying so desperatly
to fit in
wether you give it a name
or just call me strange
i couldn't care less
you try to exorcise me
i'm not gonna change
i couldn't care less

MOTHER EARTH
have you seen the fires burn
have you heard the waves crashing in
the earth is shaking
what money can't buy, isn't worth for nothing
if the lakes run dry, we put the space up for auction
let's put the waste in the oceans, till they're filled to the brim
and if there's oil in the ice, well we better dig in
have you seen the fires burn
all to ashes and coal, left no house and no home
have you heard the cries in vain
as the waves came crashing in, taking all there was with them
digging deep
building higher
greedy thieves
skilled liars
digging deep
building higher
greedy thieves
and when it all turns to dust
oh mother earth
what's gone is gone
and it will never be the same
and when it all turns to dust
oh mother earth
what's done is done
and we're all to blame
and when it all turns to dust
oh mother earth
whats gone is gone
and it will never be the same
this isn't going to sort out itself
and when it hurts, yeah when it hurts it's already to late
but why would you care
you know it can't reach you
you know it can't reach you up there
chorus
what's done is done
and we're all to blame
we're all to blame
what's done is done
and we're all to blame

AGAINST IT ALL
i am stuck in my own war
it's myself against it all
there's a reason i have barricaded day and doors again
there's no way when there's no will and i begin to understand
that i alone brought this upon me, but unable to accept it
i'm still searching for excuses, but no way out of this mess
i said that i was sorry for at least a hundred times
you told me that i needn't worry, cause you forgive and we are fine
but the devil on my shoulder had plans to play a different game
and to this day he sends his demons to remind me of my shame
and you say you drop the charge
and you say that you forgive it all
all the doubt the blame the tears, the heavy burden i still carry
all the hopes and dreams and fears, all the sleepless nights i worried
i have replayed all the arguments to see where i went wrong
and to this day i can not understand when it all began
and you say you drop the charge
and you say that you forgive it all
oh i try to believe when you say you forgive
but after all this time i see, it's not you, it's me
i am stuck in my own war
my own war
it's myself against it all
i fight but i am bound to fall
i am my own worst enemy
i am never truly free
it's myself against it all
i fight but i am bound to fall
i am my own worst enemy
never free
and when darkness falls
it's myself against it all
and there's no god to forgive - my sin
if i'm not forgiving
and it's all in your hands
in your hands

FALSE PROPHET
it is dawning on me now
that something has gone terribly wrong
nobody saw it coming
but now we starring at the fortunate son
and for all i know
we can't trust a word he's saying
but we're kneeling at his feet
kneeling at his feet
and like the shepherd to his sheep
where he's leading we will follow
as if we are asleep
as if we are asleep
well who would have thought
that it would turn out this bad
we thought we had the power
now we have blood on our hands
we thought this was a joke
but now this could be our end
we gave it away
now we can't grab hold again
too many just like to follow
only few will ever think
and i think it is a problem
if you just like to believe
cause maybe so called born leaders
shouldn't be the ones that lead us
is mankind too stupid
for a democracy
as if we wanna be cheated
as if we wanna be deceived
there's a hunger for headlines
for missteps and red lights
and for all I know
we can't trust a word he's saying
but we're kneeling at his feet
kneeling at his feet
and like the shepherd to his sheep
where he's leading we will follow
as if we are asleep
as if we are asleep
and i'm torn between
the bad and the worse
the evil and the cursed
and i'm not so sure
who's friend and who's foe
what's real and what's show
and i don't even care
who's bought for what price
cause they're all selling lies
and i can't predict
who will win and who will lose
cause there's not much to choose
and i'm torn between
the bad and the worse
the evil and the cursed
and i don't even care
who's bought for what price
and for all I know
this is the biggest show to show us
that we are powerless
that we are powerless

ATLANTIS
most of us
once had high hopes and strong believes
but we gave up on our dreams
most of us
once found a needle in a haystack
but maybe we never knew
most of us
once went out in the woods
but didn't find a single tree
and i still try to find atlantis
even if nobody believes that it exists
but i'm a dreamer and i dream of what i want
most of us
gave up before they even tried
cause they thought they could save time
most of us
are trying to hard too grab ahold
in an out-of-control world
no don't call me naive
no don't call me blind
i'll keep up the search
with my eyes opened wide 2x
and i still try to find atlantis
even if nobody believes that it exists
but i'm a dreamer and i dream of what i want

FRAGILE SOUL
if you bend i break
that is just one of my many mistakes
i've got a fragile soul
and no elastic heart
so if you push or pull i fall apart
if you bend i break
that is just one of my too many mistakes
i've got two broken wings
still i'm in vertigo
so if you push or pull i'm gonna fall
i am not made of stone (i can't brave the storm)
i am not built brick by brick (can barely hold my own)
but against all odds (you can still hear my voice)
i am still standing
if you bend i break
i just can't handle another mistake
i've got the blackest soul
and a stone cold heart
so if you push or pull it's getting dark
i'm not made of stone
i'm not built brick by brick
but against all odds
i am still standing
i'm not made of stone
i'm not built brick by brick
but against all odds
i am still standing
i am still standing
i am still standing
i am still standing
i am still standing
i am still standing
i can see the sun (still it blinds my eyes)
i can feel the warmth (but i still hide inside)
and against all odds (you can still hear my voice)
i am still standing
will you bend till i break
or can you handle my many mistakes
i've got a fragile soul
and no elastic heart
so if you push or pull i fall apart

EMPTY SILHOUETTES
you're shifting values and virtues
they sold you a dream
they made it sound so easy
you follow prophets and preachers
a blinded believer
and i know i can't reach you
you're in the dark you don't see it
a construct of lies and false promise
you bought it all, little puppet
you're surrounded by empty silhouettes
that speak your name like you wanna hear it
that will play nice as long as you pay it
you're surrounded by empty silhouettes
that tell the lie how you wanna hear it
that hide the knife as long as you don't object
they shift your values and virtues
you do as they please
they whispered words in your sleep
and now you believe
you entangled yourself
in a dangerous net
and the harder you struggle
the deeper the dept
you went into the trap
such an easy catch
and the harder you struggle
the deeper the dept
and i wanna believe when you say you're in control
and i wanna believe when you say you know it all
you know it all
you know it all
but you're in too deep to even see where this will go
they'll put your feet in concrete when they don't need you anymore
they never wished you well
they just wanted the money
you never saw through the lies
you were easy prey
you're surrounded by empty silhouettes
that speak your name like you wanna hear it
that will play nice as long as you pay it
you're surrounded by empty silhouettes
that tell the lie how you wanna hear it
that hide the knife as long as you don't object

GUIDING LIGHT
i remember looking up to the king and the queen of this four-wall-kingdom
my guiding lights in every night, my solid stones in the river of time
you were the gods, you were the all-knowing
you were the masters of my universe
you had the answers to all my questions
and i believed every word you said
through the years it dawned on me
that nothing's quite as it seems
even the king sometimes cries at night
even the queen isn't always right
you made it look so easy
like there's nothing you couldn't do
oh i thought we would just grow up
but i'm the child that i ever was
and when we grow old
we would grow stronger by the minute
that's what i was sold
but i didn't sign up for this
and i know
i doesn't ever turn out how we wanted
or how we were told
but i didn't sign up for this
i'm a dreamer
surrounded by made up minds
i'm fragile
surrounded by bricks and knifes
i'm a lover
in a world of broken hearts
a hopless case
in a world that doesn't grand new starts
when we grow old
we would know what keeps the earth in her orbit
and the feet on the ground
but no one's ever tought me this
and i still don't know
how to walk a straight line
without looking or falling down
cause no one's ever taught me this
chorus 1
and we would know what keeps the earth in her orbit

when we grow old
we would know what keeps the earth in her orbit
and the feet on the ground
but no one's ever tought me this
and i still don't know
how to be a guiding light
how to be a solid stone
cause no ones ever taught me this

REGRET
do you remember
when the world held it's breath and we swore we would never forget
we're all aware
if this would happen again, oh how would we regret
trial and error sometimes may have worked
but on such a big scale we're destroying our world
to a point where there's no second chance
cause we poisoned the well and now nothing remains
if we don't learn today
don't look for another way
no heaven will await us
if we don't make a change
to scared to make new plans
no heaven will await us
do you remember
when the world held it's breath and we swore we would never forget
we're all aware
if this would happen again, oh how would we regret
not having learned from past events
damned to relive our failures again
too proud to admit and understand
we can't rewind and take another chance
if we don't learn today
don't look for another way
no heaven will await us
if we don't make a change
to scared to make new plans
no heaven will await us

GAIA
is this the ending of all
after the rise comes the fall
and we're obliviously
standing on the edge
are we damned to stand by
watch as everything dies
have we drained the earth
of all that she's worth
i don't know what to expect
from those who don't respect
life in all it's beauty
life in all it's ways
for me the one is damned
who feeds on blood of the innocent
have you no heart
to feel the unconditional love
there's a beauty in all
even the small things
but i fear that most of us
are blind to the details
how can i make you believe
you can be the change that you want to see
soon enough you will let go
of all that you know
all creatures must die, cause we're king of the hill
more a king of dystopia, all rotten and ill
i'm shocked and disgusted what humankind
is capable of, when all act blind
badly neglected, used and rejected
we took what we could get without second thought
so cold and heartless, it seems there's no heart left
and i fear that we're standing on the edge
there's a solid chance that we will all meet in hell
cause there's no way we'll go to heaven with the mess that we made
and if you realise there was a time you could have changed
let me tell you, too late is too late
we are blind
for most of our lives
i guess over time
we dropped our sense of morality
lost the ability
to tell right from wrong
leave things where they belong
we denied
all things free and wild
their natural life
we thought we had the right
i'm shocked we had the audacity
to treat nature as enemy
deep in the night
you can hear Gaia cry
have we lost our minds
tell me when have we become so cold
we let the whole world go to waste on our search for gold
have we lost our hearts
tell me when have we become so cold
we watch the whole world slowely die cause we're greedy souls
there's a solid chance that we will all meet in hell
cause there's no way we'll go to heaven with the mess that we made
and if you realise there was a time you could have changed
let me tell you, too late is too late
too late is too late
too late is too late
there's a solid chance that we will all meet in hell
cause there's no way we'll go to heaven with the mess that we made
and if you realise there was a time you could have changed
let me tell you, too late is too late
have we lost our minds
tell me when have we become so cold
we let the whole world go to waste on our search for gold
have we lost our hearts
tell me when have we become so cold
we watch the whole world slowely die cause we're greedy souls
