No money to heal - No reason to deal No way to erase - The mistakes they made Deep in shit – Bleeding mess – No trespassing – In the rescue zone Sometimes when – You’re feeling bitter – It’s hard not – To be a dick Turn off your mind – Close your eyes – Bend over – And shut your mouth What is hurting – Is not real – That sensation – Is delusion My state is dying - it kills me with taxes Racist ideas - spread like diseases Brave whistle-blowers - versus cowardly statesmen Better off stateless - than in sheeple nation Markets hit the ground - Traders get sent down We’re milked like cash cows - To bail the banks out Deep in shit – Bleeding mess – No trespassing – In the rescue zone Sometimes when – You’re feeling bitter – It’s hard not – To be a dick Turn off your mind – Close your eyes – Bend over – And shut your mouth What is hurting – Is not real – That sensation – Is delusion My state is dying - it kills me with taxes Racist ideas - spread like diseases Brave whistle-blowers - versus cowardly statesmen Better off stateless - than in sheeple nation My state is dying - from all the stealth taxes My health is declining - I'm sick of diseases Prepare for the suffering - or suffer their prices Hey stop complaining - let's fuck in the bushes

You tried to make me doubt You tried to make me shiver You tried to make me flee You tried to make me feel like shit You tried to make me quit You tried to make me crack up You tried to make me fail You tried to make me lose control You tried to make me howl You tried to make me fuck up You tried to make me burst You tried to make me run away You tried… Too hard… You failed… You suck! Stopping this right now One way or another Going on alone One way or another I tried to resist you I tried to ignore your power I tried to deal with you I tried to act like I had to I tried to confront you I tried to make you suffer I tried not to kill you I tried to reject your orders Now I despise you Now I know you’re a liar Now I’m ahead of you Now I’ve become my own master I tried… So hard… I left you... I fucked you! Stopping this right now One way or another Going on alone One way or another

It'll Only Get Worse 04:14
lyrics

Children sitting at the top Having fun with people’s hope Never worked and never sweat Enjoying ancient privilege Don’t care ‘bout what people think Finance pulling all the strings Greed for power and money Controlling our destiny Don't wish for more, don't pray No miracle, too late! Let’s drink for old time’s sake And blow them all away It’s getting worse - It’s getting worse We’re getting screwed - You see it It’s getting worse - It’s getting worse We’re going mad - They know it It’ll only get worse - It’ll only get worse We’re all gonna drown - Do they care? Do they care? It’ll only get worse - It’ll only get worse It’s up to us all - To blow them away… Children staying at the top Keeping silliness in stock Never giving up their toy Ignoring all people’s calls Wasting money like it’s hot Creating taxes to restock Sharing knowing smiles with banks Laughing at their dirty pranks Don't wish for more, don't pray No miracle, too late! Let’s drink for old time’s sake And blow them all away It’s getting worse - It’s getting worse We’re getting screwed - You see it It’s getting worse - It’s getting worse We’re going mad - They know it It’ll only get worse - It’ll only get worse We’re all gonna drown - Do they care? Do they care? It’ll only get worse - It’ll only get worse It’s up to us all - To blow them away…

Don’t you care - Don’t you stare - I’m not scared Don’t play with me or I will screw you over I could be blind - You’re in my mind Don’t try to bring me down at such an early hour You’re using me - I’m not for free Let’s get one thing straight: I’m not your four leaf clover Don’t threaten to leave me this way I’ll give you up but not today In the dream world you made up I’m the one you don’t think about I cannot creep in your mind – I would go insane You just made my nerves blow out – You don’t feel that pain Don’t be fooled – I won’t be ruled – I can be cruel So messing with me’s the worst thing you could ever do I value trust – And loyalty So God help you ‘cause no one else will if you betray me And don’t you dare – Get in my hair ‘Cause I’ll cut you down before you can say a vain prayer Don’t threaten to leave me this way I’ll give you up but not today In the dream world you made up I’m the one you don’t think about I cannot creep in your mind – I would go insane You just made my nerves blow out – You don’t feel that pain All my world can fall apart – I would feel no shame Bitterness is not a crime – It only makes me bleed Don’t threaten to leave me this way I’ll give you up but not today In the dream world you made up I’m the one you don’t think about

Me Against Who 04:30
lyrics
buy track
Drain your own twisted mind You can’t hide what you must leave behind What are you up to now ? Try not to feel free And don’t forget about me I might be what you fear And what you cannot bear In such an endless night ‘Cause first you drink, you love you hit and then you die So stand up and fight Until you hit the ground Try not to go astray Not now and not today Feels cold to be alive It’s hard to take a dive Try not to go astray Not now and not today Feels cold to be with you I’m here to help you I tried to knock you down I tried to bring you down But you’re not ready yet To discover that I… Know you well So stay where you are I tried to knock you down I tried to bring you down I hardly see you now You’re not even around... My unconscious side Things you just couldn’t say Will come back to haunt you one day They’ll lead you astray Take your focus away From what matters now So you resist somehow Try not to get dragged down By demons in your mind Who draw all of your hope and put you in a bind So leave those thoughts behind They’re not worth your time Try not to go astray Not now and not today Feels cold to be alive It’s hard to take a dive Try not to go astray Not now and not today Feels cold to be with you I’m here to help you I tried to knock you down I tried to bring you down But you’re not ready yet To discover that I… Know you well So stay where you are I tried to knock you down I tried to bring you down I hardly see you now You’re not even around... My unconscious side Sometimes you take Something to awake Sometimes you drink Sometimes you sink I tried to knock you down I tried to bring you down But you’re not ready yet To discover that I… Know you well So stay where you are I tried to knock you down I tried to bring you down I hardly see you now You’re not even around... My unconscious side

Darkness Coming 04:45
lyrics

Sky is turning to black – Sea is flooding the dykes There’s no way to escape Rats are leaving the drains – Birds are flying away Our leaders don’t give a shit Governments are useless – Banks are falling apart Nature finally reacts Most of us won’t survive – But some will find their way back What will happen to you? – Is your conscience clear? Watch! Darkness coming Fight! Evil’s rising Watch! Leaders falling Go! Times are changing Watch! Darkness coming Fight! Evil’s rising Good news for all those who are struggling Watch your back and keep on living Don’t run – Don’t go Stay – Hold on – Be strong Don’t flee – Don’t run – Don’t go Stay – Hold on – Be strong
