Against The Void

all I ever wanted something to believe in
the truth they claim it was never for me
in this world of fake smile, corruption and cold lies
where to turn to find some that emerges as true
for all those years
I lived secure behind this barriere
that seperates me from everything
I could continue the same old routine, that leads me nowhere
but I cant stop thinking there has to be something more
open my mind, open my eyes so I can see is there anything worth this war
open my eyes, open my mind, so I can grasp is there anything worth my all
in times the pressure of this void in my chest, threats to consume me whole until I collapse
and it feels like a glowing blade is cutting me down, I will defy and become stronger than I could be before
I will break down my walls and barrieres, that seperate me from this world
tear down these concrete walls in my mind once and for all
all the years of effort, strain and pressure come down to me at once, are circling me in
where to go from this point not to reach this same old place in my mind where it all seems so useless to me
I am so fucking tired, so fucking sick of this all
no reason to stand back up, just to fall back down
I am so fucking tired of this repeating mess
moments of endless void are meeting like good old friends
open my mind, summon my strength so I can soar
open my mind and burn the past, break down these walls

Can't Hold Me Down

I raise my voice to the voiceless
to everybody, can you hear me?
your lies made me tough, your doubts made me strong
just look at me now
I learned so fucking much ever since
I changed my approach to life
Ive got so fucking far ever since
I started to fight for myself
Tear away, rip apart everything
that tries to hold you back
create distance between you and everyone
that tries to hold you down
I wont stop - till I got what I want
I wont quit - till I have what I need
The years that passed tought the lessons I live
the scars that last make sure I wont forget
feed my mind from the chains of the past
so I can go further than I could before
the warning signs that I see everywhere
they throw their bricks, well Im too far to care
they say my crash is certain
Im prepared for whatever will come
I see my path in front of me
and nothings stands in my way
I wont let my fears control my acts
I wont repeat all the old mistakes
Coz I know what I want in life
and none of you can stop me
Im down to fight for what is mine
you cant take nothing away from me

My Liberation

What should I say what hasnt been said before
in all the decades gone by, by all the bands in the world
and I dont care if anyone appreciates what I say
all I can insure this thing here is important to me
Just want to get these thoughts right out of my head
try to regain my calm, try to get me some rest
those problems that are scrapping my mind
vanish when the storm comes, are gone when the sun shines
and I dont do this for noone,except for me and you
I know this wouldnt be awesome without you
and I know this thing needs noone
just a guitar, drum and a bass and someone screaming out his lungs
this is my liberation, this is my liberty
this is - my peace of - this is my peace of mind
I dont need this to be perfect
I just want this to be pure

Right Here Right Now

if you found just one true thing
never let it go
chances are that this is more
than the most will ever know
if it fills you up with power
if it gives you strength
in times where most are weak
if it guides you through the hard times
it is all in life that you will ever need
we do believe in this
and we care what happens in and with our lifes
wherever this might lead I walk this path until the end
without regret
this motivation that so many strife for
this people in my life that I would die for
this music in my mind, that all means life to me
lets me endure the bitter days, makes me feel free again
this is all I have and this is all I need
ill give everything to keep this close to me
and I dont care about anything else
because in this life, your rules dont apply
and everything thats mine
I carry with me all the time
and never let it go
have to live life hardcore, got to give it all
cause at the end of the day, everything is gone
right here, right now, my choice, my life

Abandoned

Im fucking abandoned
living on my own
searching for a lost part of me
if I stop moving on now
it will tear me up
so I keep pushing through another day
this is all
Ive seen it
I know these pictures they might fade
but I cant care reminders stay and will never vanish
on my way back its fucking hunting me
Its never gonna let me go
when I close my eyes i see nothing at all
and this emptiness is devouring me whole
all I feel agony
the fact that this step took your pain is just small comfort
it remains fucking torture
when the sun shines Im standing frozen inside
feel the walls of my mind closing in on me
dissociation from the source of my grief
seems like the only relief from the pain today
this is all it ends here and all thats left
are broken pictures in my head
i wont forget
