SHARDS

I wake up by the first sunray
That colors the room in dullest grey
Reflecting shards of broken words
Don’t know how to move without getting hurt
Rip out my tongue, and throw it away
No need to talk when there’s nothing left to say
I’m better off with the taste of blood in my mouth
Sweet taste is gone and worn out
We’re drifting apart...
Well I don’t know how to start
We’re drifting apart...
And I’m just picking up shards
We’re two leaves on a stormy day
Dancing in circles we’re acting out our play
We tried to touch but we’re so far out of reach
We rot away and there’ll be nothing left to keep
We’re drifting apart and I’m just picking up shards
We’re drifting apart...
Well I don’t know how to start
We’re drifting apart...
And I’m just picking up shards
I keep picking up shards

CLARIFY

They ́re the big stone in the way of progress
Tainting the sweet bloom with bitterness
how many wrong decisions will they make?
How many smiles do you have to fake?
they say: the only way to reach the top is to sweat the last drop of your
blood
worn and wiped out that's how they like their disposable masses,
expect no thanks from those who never learned to ask
you stand alone with nothing but your heart!
who carries the torch for the clueless leaders
to open their eyes, to clarify
you ́ve been told hard work pays off
but which pocket's filled
to do it well is in your nature
but to give more than you get is against our culture
who carries the torch for the clueless leaders
to open their eyes, to clarify

PIECES

plans are falling to pieces, they will never be rebuilt
only a diffuse picture filled with guilt
plans are falling to pieces, they will never be rebuilt
just one step ahead but always out of reach
fuck you're badly off
memories got you stuck and you're hiding in the past
the hopes of yesterday are frustrations of today
but tomorrow will come at last
wish you had, could it be again
then you would maybe, waiting for the perfect plan
plans are falling to pieces, they will never be rebuilt
only a diffuse picture filled with guilt
plans are falling to pieces, they will never be rebuilt
dreams don 't mean shit, they destroy the here and now
they've killed your courage to risk a shot
the same old rat race never changed, the point of view stays the same
you only grow older and you feel the rust creeping up your veins
they just see the lucky guy who's got it made
but in your eyes you get sick of your thoughts circling around
wish you had, would it be again
then you could maybe, then it sounds like a perfect plan

PRESSURE

where's the time to rest to get the pressure off your chest
I know you can't give more than your best
how good would it be just to breathe in
to close your eyes and to feel save in your skin
but your best isn’t enough for them
Deep down on the ground you’re alone with the pain
Losing touch with the world you’re struggling in vain
The surface is clear but you’re so far away
Breathe out and breathe in, doubts will decay
where's the time to rest to get the pressure off your chest
I know you can't give more than your best
the best is not enough, that's not the tide, it's a raging flood
doesn't matter in this maze there is no place to hide
where's the time to rest to get the pressure off your chest
I know you can't give more than your best

QUICKSAND

Don’t hold back, don’t hold back
is the outside what it ́s all about?
Our insides are jet black
So we can rip our cold hearts out
you get smacked, you get smacked
if you try to trust anyone else
no respect, no respect
is this the dead generation
announcing the bitter end
relaxed, they're waving hands
standing in quicksand
no emotion, no emotion
can touch the heart, deny the truth
rip it apart, go back to the start
to live means to comply
everyone wants to live the lie
is this the dead generation
announcing the bitter end
relaxed, they're waving hands
standing in quicksand
