Weak

Are you suffering?
I'm sorry, 'cause I hurt you
And maybe now your pain rips you even more
You're my daily pill of love and guilt
I'm weak to love you
Weak to let you go
Weak 'cause I wasn't able to give my soul to you
We tried to say farewell
I'm drowning in my hell
Don't leave me waiting here
(I) can't feel my soul down here
Just let me breathe once again
I saw you cry so many times
And shared your same pain
I wish I could promise you'll get better soon
But I just know that everytime we've been together
I've lost myself in you
This time we have to say goodbye
We tried to say farewell
I'm drowning in my hell
Don't leave me waiting here
(I) can't feel my soul down here
Just let me breathe once again
I'm too weak, my love
But I want it more
I stole your heart and soul now
And I can’t let you go
You smiled, I fell
We're crawling in our hell
Don't leave me waiting here
I feel your pain down here
We tried to say farewell
I'm drowning in my hell
Don't leave me waiting here
(I) can't feel my soul down here
Just let me breathe once

Another day, another deceit
Another notch on the wall of this captivity
Empty shell living a self-built lie
He doesn’t feel fear
He doesn’t feel
Pay the price and get what you want
“How can I satisfy you today?”
Beauty will fade, but not for today
He doesn’t feel shame
He doesn’t feel
He built his body like a castle
A beautiful facade, rotten foundations
And still he cannot lift his own pain
Which slowly erodes
Spotlights on a dirty roulette
It's raining gold, it's raining tears
But nobody sees them
It's not his face they’re looking at
No makeup needed, trading online virtues
It feels alive
Frame of frames, how long will it take?
Love has never been sold so cheaply
Only the razor will get to his soul
Drinking the life flowing from his veins
He built his body like a fortress
A beautiful facade, inside just ashes
And still he cannot lift his own pain
Which slowly erodes
Spotlights on a dirty roulette
It's raining gold, it's raining tears
But nobody sees them
It's not his face they’re looking at
No makeup needed, trading online virtues
It feels alive
How long can opulence be mistaken with happiness?
At the end of day
The weight of this void, the wreck of his life
Are shattering him down
Spotlights on a dirty roulette
It's raining gold, it's raining tears
But nobody sees them
It's not his face they’re looking at
No makeup needed, trading online virtues
It feels alive

Take a Bow

I wait with my heart beating madly
Before a show I know too well
You rule the stage in every moment
And I fall under your spell
I still believe your cruel deception
While you don’t even try to hide
I try to look away but I can't help
But yearn and scream inside
‘Cause you can make me cry if you want me to
You can make me die if you want me to
All that I am is in your hands
I am again the intended victim
Alone, awaiting your torment
You rage on my exhausted mind
Until you know there’s nothing left
You can make me cry if you want me to
You can make me die if you want me to
All that I am spoils in your hands
This is your moment now
This is your moment now
This is your moment now
This is your moment now
Once again your lies will save us all
You can make me cry if you want me to
You can make me die if you want me to
All that I am is in your hands
Don’t pretend that I mean something to you
I’m here to kill your time when you’re tired or bored
All that I am ruins in your hands

Earthquake

Tainted night, I can’t sleep
(I) feel the dark is smothering me
Stuck on this cold soil
I can't breathe and (I) drown in the dark
While my mind falls apart
My whole world is crashing in
(But I can no longer escape)
Echoes of a melody
(That no one will listen again)
Wounds are still open
Burning out loud
Memories won't ever fade out
Rough black night, I can’t dream
Pain and dark are suffocating me
All my fears torture me
And I know I won’t get out of it
The Earth is quaking
I can't breathe and no one's around
It's so cold inside and I can't hear you calling my name
My whole world is crashing in
(And I can no longer escape)
Echoes of a melody
(That no one will listen again)
There’s no hand to dry my tears
(I sink deeper into despair)
You will never hear me scream
Wounds are still open
Burning out loud
Memories won't ever fade out
My whole world is crashing in
(And I can no longer escape)
Echoes of a melody
(That no one will listen again)
Wounds are still open
Burning out loud
Memories won't ever fade out
