1 Verse Choice is our birth given right Who is brave enough To use it, to live with mistakes? Fear encloses our heart, leads the destiny astray. Chorus What a demonic dance Between love and hate. You’re lost in the labyrinth. Walls were raised from these thoughts, Enjoy now the madness within Asylum in your head. 2 Verse We sacrifice all we have, We are ready to lose Blinded by shadows and ghosts, But when the reaper is here We doubt the whole our life. Chorus Solo Chorus 2x

Gluttony 05:02
1 Verse I deprive you of your sleep, disturb your piece I maim your happiness, I’m ravenous. Please, remember the rules, benevolence is down On its knees and begs, when I pay in cash. Hunger. I feel it in my bones, I feed it through my eyes. On my tongue is melting taste of wealth. Chorus Horizon sank in jaws of the beast. The more I get, the more I want to take. Gluttony gorges my face, the ugly mask remains. Bury me in gold and disgrace. 2 Verse I seep into your ears, poison the love of life, I bought your well-being for half-price. Think. You think you can withstand, you think you can be pure Getting infected with my anger and greed. Smile. Gnawing I will smile, laughing I will chew. Swallow dignity of yours and grin. Chorus 2x

1 Verse Escaping from tyrants, we found mysterious shelter. The strangers were friendly, their lies tasted harmlessly sweet. Fairytale turned into endless confusion and clatter. We accepted the challenge to make fuckin’ colossus bleed. Chorus I can’t see this city at all, But through dirty windows Of failed expectations. Grave full of hopes can’t be washed By the spirits and snow. Blood’s getting colder Crawling slower through the Wonderland. Wonderland…devoid of future! 2 Verse Illusions explode, no more chance to rebuild, to recover. It’s time to believe our eyes, not the visions in dust. Let’s grasp the reality, placing no trust in the vowers, No hopes in the future, no bitter remorse in the past. Chorus Solo Chorus

NoName 04:29
1 Verse Substitute paradise, give up your life by praying on quicksand. Digital god is wise, makes you feel rich, forsaken on badlands. Greatness here has its price, now you chained to an icon in your hands. Angel is killed, devil ashamed by mankind. All smiles are fake, thinking imposed. Refrain For the sake of hearts that don’t beat, For the sake of hands that don’t help You are ignoring your life, When it’s just passing you by 2 Verse Valued are strangers’ grades, you get high off their pressure and terror. Your identity fades, being erased by trial and error. You’ll mutilate your face, a cripple looks pretty in distorting mirror. Angel is killed, devil ashamed by mankind. All smiles are fake, thinking imposed. Refrain

Migraine 03:23

Special One 04:55
1 verse Fools call themselves psychopaths To look special, but Can’t feel the dance of blades Slashing their burning guts. They don’t fight every day To step on the spot Don’t watch turning to dust Everything they have got. 1 chorus To seize someone’s love Discussing own death Pretending to be A sociopath Is heartless and cheap 2 verse Who wants to go mad for real, To let demons reign, To unleash the dark side Locked inside the sick brain? There is no romance, There is only pain Straightjacket and drugs, Welcome to being insane. 2 chorus Now take these meds Then fly away High voltage makes Fit mind obey. Who’s special now, creep? Break 2 chorus

1 Verse Keep silence…Nobody will blame, nobody is looking for your words. Fight against the demons for yourself, don’t give up your paradise. Tears will rot forever in your eyes, inside of tainted veins, Because Chorus sense of thoughts sticks in the throat with the bone of words. Chaos can’t be expressed in simple forms. Mind is deaf, no one cares what is said, what is meant. Curse and blessing are incorporeal and soul… is untold. 2 Verse Stay patient…Someday you will find the one who guides you to the light Who silences the whisper and the growl, who listens just to you. Inner voice shuts up and you’ll cough out, cough out with the pus Your world. Chorus

1 Verse I don’t demand your respect. I know that your wounds are too deep, Can be healed neither by me, nor by time. Wisdom’s just a curtain that hides The essence of mine from your eyes, From your love. You see it clear when I’m wrong, But still you prefer to ignore When I’m bleeding. Refrain I can’t run away, even if I go thousands of miles Let me be myself, fuck your criticism. Stop raping my heart, open the cage. 2 Verse You cast the stones I collect. Trying to paint the black sheep, To paint it white you got the layer of grime. It's so easy to stand by my side, We go under, we do not compromise. Fair enough. I found the way I belong. It doesn’t lead to your backdoor When I’m bleeding. Refrain
