02. Morality zero

Greedy eyes, focused just to value
Wide-open hands ready to appropriate
Lack of guilt makes everything go smooth
Is our only purpose to boundlessly consume?

“If it makes you happy it’s not wrong”
Another ridiculous lie planted for the mass to absorb
In the world of shut ears and covered eyes
Rightful moral values so hard to find



03. Full (dis)closure

Blinded by conformity, I accept everything
I let the world pass right in front of my eyes
Random images reflect new chances and
Every second I have wasted in this life

Heavy punches in the chest to wake what’s left inside
Sharp nail in the skin to refresh old sparks
Along with the heartbeats, there’s always hope
For this machine to breed new life

It takes one step to change your mind
But it takes a lot more to pave the right track
I am human and we all make mistakes
It doesn’t matter how you fall, it matters how you land

No more lies, no more self-pretense
I am the one setting myself in these traps
Every denial strengthens the web of illusions
Cut it through and seek for the right solution



04. Foundation crack

A sudden opportunity to finally touch the change
Immediately got ruined by your selfish claims
Of the way it used to be, of the way you used to live
“Please! We heard enough!”

Can it really be so hard to cope with the present youth
To embrace new generations, to encourage new potentials
Don’t you think it’s selfish just because of your age
To have my respect and in return to get nothing back

We will be the concrete, to fill your spot
To save this wall from another breakdown
We will be the missing card, to replace you,
To save this pyramid from another crash

FOUNDATION CRACK

See new blood boiling inside these veins
Feel the hair bristling on your skin
Look me in the eyes do you feel the same
Try to remember, what has truly changed?



05. Arrogance diminishes wisdom

Shaken up by your elevated voice, I accept your claims
I allow you to convince me that I was wrong
Why did I let you be my judge and jury
Why have I gave you importance in my life?

I should’ve turned my back in the first place
To avoid this humiliation in advance
They say: “Kindness begets kindness”
But I was wrong about it, with you.

Like the wind underneath window sill
I can feel your judgements sneaking up on me
Cold and unpleasant blades that shiver my skin
Yet invisible for others to see

Marked by your accusations but that will clean
Scarred by your insults but that will heal
For another unstoppable fury of aspersions
I can just close my eyes and wait for the storm to pass

Fool me once, shame on you
Fool me twice, shame on me
You had your chances, you let them go
I learned my lesson, my conscience is clear



06. The dark passenger

Pushed into the darkness, I frenziedly swing
To take down the curtain, to end this charade
Intentionally I am giving my best to miss
So afraid of what I am about to witness

Blindfolded – some blisters are not meant to be seen
It’s itching but some scabs aren’t meant to be revealed
Hunger that cannot be controlled
Slowly sealing and feeding on my soul

Curiosity, a stimulant to reach further
To expand our horizons and cross new borders
Until we decide to finally stop or take one more step
To unlock the door yet, there is no turning back

Struck down by insolation, I am trying to save
Rainy cloud over my head that’s thundering some hope
In new shape, I stride against the flow
With every next step, grabbing new dawn
