Verse 1:
Too much pain, too much sorrow
In too many people’s lives
Enemies have the power
To enslave every one of us.
They tell you they know you better
But they don’t even know your name
Bunch of lies in love letters
Cold-blood rules this twilight place.
Chorus:
Got bruises
Got blood in my eyes
I’m too weak to run
It’s too late to hide.
Got bruises
Got pain in my heart
I don’t fit this world
I step on stones.
Verse 2:
Women with hungry children
Men struggling to wet their mouths
A water drop makes a difference
They drink from a well of inessential life.
Sinking ship with survivors
Still no-one’s giving them a hand
They all drown in the silence.
And nobody bothers to care.
Chorus:
Got bruises...

Civil War

|
Verse 1:
Who knows what to say when all words are dead?
Who knows what to do when all goes mad?
Who knows?
Chorus:
Empty places but I'm here with you
Screaming silence in this cozy room
We say nothing, or we say something wrong
That's the way we’ve been behaving, for so long.
Verse 2:
Who knows where to go when there is no home?
Who knows where to stay when nothing brings hope?
Who knows?
Chorus:
Empty places...
Verse 3:
Who knows where to hide when safety is gone?
Who knows how to end this cruel civil war?

Human Zoo
06:03
|
|||
|
Verse 1:
I’m nobody’s savior
I’m nobody’s god
But I would change the nature
of this evil world.
No more lies
No more fights
No sacrifice
No more cold
No more wars
And no closing doors.
Chorus:
Believing in brotherhood
But we’re living, we’re living in a human zoo
No equal chance, no dignity left
We’re losing, we’re losing our human face.
Verse 2:
Glass of powerlessness
Gold cup of disgrace
Winnings for greedy takers
And freedom with tied hands.
No more light
No own rights
No mercy around
No more faith
State of hate
This is what we get.
Chorus:
Believing in brotherhood...
Bridge:
Too late for dying and too late to live
This land is not fertile, and this fruit is weak.

Mama

|
|||
|
Verse 1:
Mama, you've always been alone
You wanted to give us the greatest home
You're hiding your tears when you cry (away from your child)
Oh mama, you left yourself behind.
Chorus:
I look into your heart, look into your heart.
Verse 2:
Forgiveness is shining from your blue eyes
Forever and ever and ever you'll be holding our hearts
You put so much love into giving in endless ways
Oh mama, you put all before yourself.
Chorus:
I look into your heart.
Bridge:
You've always been alone
You gave us love and home
You keep us in your heart
You left yourself behind.

Rotten Fruit
04:32
|
|||
|
Verse 1:
I was so rushed to love you
I was hurried with our love
Told you everything about myself
Like we’re never gonna reach tomorrow
I knew there was nothing better
I knew nothing’s been this right
I knew there’d be no fear together
Nothing we could not overcome
And my face like a flower
And my heart without blues
Then a whispered voice spoke up loud
Changed my love into a rotten fruit
Said this love would not last forever
Said this love had never been pure
I knew we would soon surrender
I knew we’d not bond for good
Chorus:
Things aren’t as pretty - on the inside.
Verse 2:
You’re giving me you in parts
Bits of sweet and salt, cold and light
The rest you hid for the sunrise
Kissing me and saying sweet „good night”
But we died before the morning
Were too late to see the next day
And we’ve gone without living
We died before the end.
But nothing can make me give up
(And) nothing can hurt me more
Here I am - ready to forgive now
I will keep the love nobody wants
I will keep you in my memories
I will keep your shadow love
Cuz like all the pain remaining Y
You are irreplaceable.
Chorus:
Things aren’t as pretty on the inside...

Lust

Desire for wonders - lust in the mirror
Vanity hunters - lust in the...
Surrendering fighters - lust in the mirror
King Ego’s hunger - lust in the...
Into a slumber - lust in the mirror.

Shame
05:08
|
|||
|
Verse 1:
Take me to a place where nobody can find me
Take me to a place for poor fool like me
I don't wanna hear my guilt in his silent heart
I don't wanna see in his eyes what I have done.
What a fool I was to think you'd keep on trying
What a fool I was to leave you in the rain
Now I'm drowning in the tears you made from my blame
I won't get any relief. I own this pain.
Chorus:
People won't find me
Cuz people see the light
And I'm hidden alone here
with my soul that is too dark.
Verse 2:
Take me to a place where nobody can hear me
Take me to a place where I can pay for sins
I will cry for you an ocean of my shame
I will scream until my heart will understand.
Look into my heart and tell me what you see there
Look into my eyes and say if I can cry
I became a stone, and I'm going, going under.
I became somebody cold, without a heart.
Chorus:
People won't find me...

White Crown
05:37
|
|||
|
Verse 1:
He was just a bird, just a black bird
Fourteen years old, fourteen years old
They put a white crown on his head, (oh no!)
Telling him this was his very last toy.
Hadn’t seen his parents for eighty days, for eighty days
Not even any familiar face
Hadn’t got any help from the Lord
Hadn’t got any love from above.
Chorus:
On and on and on - We go the same way
On and on and on - go round in circles.
Verse 2:
Now look at the mother and her lost
Now look at the father and his life cost
Walking in the house couldn’t find home
Couldn’t hear any sound, couldn’t speak a word.
Couldn’t see any stars in the night
Couldn’t see any light, any light in the sun
The sky was full of bombs, it was year 44
He was just a bird, he was just a boy.
Chorus:
On and on and on - We go the same way
On and on and on - go round in circles.

Too Late
05:20
|

|
Verse 1:
I heard, I heard you dying
You were lying on the ground
I heard you dying, I heard you dying
But you never, you never said stop.
Chorus:
Too late.
Verse 2:
Crushing stones, exploding places
But you can hardly hear the sound
Your shining eyes going into blackness
Desolation, a knife in the heart.
Chorus:
Too late...

Every man is a sinner - that's how we've found each other.
Silence is like loneliness - that's why we make music.
