Blank
I know you feel blank within
This world seems so grimm
That dark place you are in
You think you have lost this race
You hang your head in disgrace
Prepare to leave this place
Try to understand
Death's not meant to be planned
Free that gun from your hand
I know you feel so much bigger
With your finger on that trigger
You left your hope out to wither
Take it easy son
Death can't be undone
A new day has begun.
This world seems so grimm
That dark place you are in
You think you have lost this race
You hang your head in disgrace
Prepare to leave this place
Try to understand
Death's not meant to be planned
Free that gun from your hand
I know you feel so much bigger
With your finger on that trigger
You left your hope out to wither
Take it easy son
Death can't be undone
A new day has begun.

No Salvation Today
I can't reach any higher
My minds wrapped in wire
This heart is a liar
These memories that stay
I just can't walk away
No salvation today
This dangerous game we play
My soul starts to decay
I can't live this way
Goodbye to everyone
I have come undone
This battle can't be won
How much more can I try?
Got no tears left to cry
I'm always wondering why
We're not made to fly
I came here to die
World this is goodbye.
My minds wrapped in wire
This heart is a liar
These memories that stay
I just can't walk away
No salvation today
This dangerous game we play
My soul starts to decay
I can't live this way
Goodbye to everyone
I have come undone
This battle can't be won
How much more can I try?
Got no tears left to cry
I'm always wondering why
We're not made to fly
I came here to die
World this is goodbye.

Stop This Fall
Inside I am dying
You see me smiling
So sick of trying
Can't stand this crying
A face that is lying
Backed up against a wall
Can't stop this fall
Feel the weight of it all
Face down on the floor
Beautiful internal war
Here to settle the score
Please understand I'm damned
I lack the strength to stand
This is not what I planned
Buried my head in sand
As i pick up my feet
Start to feel my heartbeat
I remember defeat
Taste of victory sweet
...

Greed
No right to our ignorance
we proceed
The disruption of balance
driven by greed
We turn away
as we are falling from grace
Pretend we dont see
the world's disgrace
The starving, the lost
the broken and brave
No salvation from
your solid gold grave
Taking for granted
needs filled on demand
Open your eyes
reach out your hand
Reality is the instinct to survive
The desperate cries of those barely alive.

Dangerous Game
A million tears set free today
my friend i heard you cry
Time to get back up
now that you have run dry
Stand and fight
don't walk away
Choices are made
with emotions in play
Forgive for all
the times you have sinned
Chase control
with your back to the wind
Yours is not the first heart
to be mistaken
Love is a game
that can leave us forsaken
Own all the damage
that you have done
Fight for the heart
that you once won
True love is forgiving
minds can be weak ...

The wisdom of balance
Nobody told us freedom is never free
Truth leads the way for reality
Who could have set us down in this place?
Promise of paradise but only a taste
They told us to be gentle, warm and kind
In our secret hearts our anger makes us blind
Harsh is the journey to the wisdom of balance
The fight to survive requires all of our talents
Confusion we own each day and each night
We suffer the darkness for a glimpse of the light.

Confusion we own each day and each night
We suffer the darkness for a glimpse of the light.

Roxanne
I let go of the rope to take the fall
I could have been safe above the wall
I pick up my head and walk away
Save my courage for another day
One more mistake won't change a thing
Everything is gone or lost within
You run through me and wash away the pain
Without you i just feel insane
Take me with you to the place where you lay
You are my air at night and tears in the day
Soon my dear friend i must say goodbye
I rescue my blood and hang it to dry.

Take me with you to the place where you lay
You are my air at night and tears in the day

Fear In Vain
Dying from the very first breath
Never as lonely as the moment of death
Hold the journey in a warm embrace
Accept the world in all it's disgrace
To back down in the fight of life is to fail
Open your heart and forgive all it's betrayal
If you fear death, you fear in vain
When it comes for you, what of you will remain?
What you do for yourself will last your existence
Immortal are deeds of selfish resistance.
Never as lonely as the moment of death

How can this be love?
How can this be love?
you bring out my dark
How can this be love?
it's all flame and no spark
How can this be love?
when we hate so much
How can this be love?
I have to beg for your touch
How can this be love?
we have to ask for each kiss
How can this be love?
we live in misery not bliss
How can this be love?
hearts that are torn
How can this be love?
minds jaded and worn
How can this be love?
all the damage that's been done
How can this be love?
if the battle can't be won.
you bring out my dark

Fall From Grace
To view my soul you must look in my eye
Witness my anger resisiting to die
Longing to set myself free at last
I give up all hope of a better past
When you are without courage you fall from grace
The coward in you brings silent disgrace
It is your turn to carry and keep it warm
You hold the weight of innocence torn
My rage is my poison yet you still live
The memory is strong as i fight to forgive.
Witness my anger resisiting to die
Longing to set myself free at last
I give up all hope of a better past
When you are without courage you fall from grace
The coward in you brings silent disgrace
It is your turn to carry and keep it warm
You hold the weight of innocence torn
My rage is my poison yet you still live
The memory is strong as i fight to forgive.

Blue Ball
What is the deal with this big blue ball?
Who the hell knows, no clue at all
There is the story of jesus but that ones quite dreary
Then there is the one with the apes and the big bang theory
So many questions on the stars, sun and moon
Dont expect god will skype anytime soon
At the end of the day who gives a fuck?
We are here now so lets run amok
Some things on this ball can be a real bummer
Earthquakes,tsunami and the long bloody hot summer
Yep some things plain suck like dishes and bills
All the more reason to indulge in some thrills
There...

The Stranger
I am the stranger
that lives inside
of you
I am with you
every day
When the world
reaches out
and slaps you
I come out
to play
I feed from your anger
for all that you have seen
all the broken promises
and unrealised dreams
I rattle the cage
you keep me in
longing to be free
I fill your light
with darkness
taking hope with me
With every slap i am stronger
weaker is my cage
I will one day consume you
I am Rage.
that lives inside
of you
I am with you
every day
When the world
reaches out
and slaps you
I come out
to play
I feed from your anger
for all that you have seen
all the broken promises
and unrealised dreams
I rattle the cage
you keep me in
longing to be free
I fill your light
with darkness
taking hope with me
With every slap i am stronger
weaker is my cage
I will one day consume you
I am Rage.
