SHARDS 02:29
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 03:02
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 02:44
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 03:13
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 02:43
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
