Hybrid Fear 04:25
The secret of life, in a blink of an eye For the glory of see, and the gift of the blind What was said wasn’t done on the scratch on the wall You are tall when you stand, you are small when you fall… Overlooking the words that was writing and spoken All the secrets and chants should be never forgotten Doors and Windows are open for the life to pour in We stand strong as an army, that will never give in Share the light and the shadows, yes, one only must hope Hand in hand with your brothers, on the endless tight rope Every step is a challenge that you must overcome Some might think you are weak, but we know you are strong If the fear comes down knocking, stay away from its grip You Stand tall as you face it, while you’re holding your whip Fear is not what will save you, Fear just makes you alert Lies don’t make you a believer, we know each step can hurt You will face all the fear when it knocks on your door Or you are empty-handed or you’re holding a sword Either way face your fear, if you are rich or you’re poor But you’ll never surrender, for the load that you bored

This is not the first time You tried to get away This is not a party Where people know your name This is not a classroom With teacher at the board This is not a game show With prizes at the door Go Don't you go Won't you stay with me one more day If we get through one more night If we get through one more night This is not a horse race Where winners beat the time This is not a funeral With mourners in a line This is not a sitcom Where everything's alright This is not a prison With terror through the night Go Don't you go Won't you stay with me one more day If we get through one more night If we get through one more night This is not the first time (You tried to get away) This is not a party (Where people know your name) This is not a classroom (With teacher at the board) This is not a cat show (With prizes at the door) Go Don't you go Won't you stay with me one more day If we get through one more night If we get through one more night Go Don't you go Won't you stay with me one more day If we get through one more night If we get through one more night This is not the first time You tried to get away This is not a party Where people know your name

Gilgamesh 04:38
You’re the deceiver… You’re just an Illusion I am holding the Trigger Behold the explosion The Liar within you Is guided by Evil The shield and he Sword The fangs of the Weasel The cut is too deep The damage is done Your soul is pitch black Your heart is a stone You’re just a pretender pretending to be The one you are not You’ll never be me The cut is too deep The damage is done Your soul is pitch black Your heart is a stone There are shadows around you The torment and pain The spell has been cast You’re living in vain

I will fire away giving up on my dreams Waking call on the death row of the meanless screams I got the final fire, I'm sick to death tonight I got a pill I got a gun I'll make the call, I'll rise up and you’ll know I’m in All is dark when you close your eyes to the light Don’t get me real, I'm not who I was but my heart is in I'm looking up and thinking That I'm not lost in the stars and the sins Among dead bodies that pure float about Deep inside but yet too far I won’t tell you what I was left to died I know that knowing is a challenging thing to bare I’m your slider, not your glider Reaching out to the summit just to hear you call A secret garden of sour it came to be I will fly away longing to see my home again A coward dressed as fearlessness My world is in ruins I’ll never remain In the eye of the night (Lead for the death row) The tower you built to feed the disease and resurrect Dark as too far in hell It will never be told It will never be unfolded, my truth is in ruins It will ever remain; in a heart in vain but within a dream I miss the day I died... Let me say I didn't want to go but I went right or wrong (Show me your light while I'm strong) But it should’ve never be unfold The real is no longer Dark is the pride In the eye of the night

I never tried to ask myself stupid questions Woke up today, I cannot stay There's no good intentions Dare asking me again what did I have to give away I am myself, I cannot run, but I just can stay You cannot run and be yourself In judgement day The judgement day (You're not alone) In the judgment day Will you be strong? It can't be heard unless the bird is flying free I'll never knew there's no more clay, there's no more steel The line is thin, another way, the void within I'll be around in every turn and every stone The judgement day (I will wake you up) Judgement day (Reveal the sins) Judgement day (Unleash the false) Judgement day (I am floating soft) The judgement day (The dirt are clean)

Little man is getting bigger Overall, I miss him when he was Me I see him growing up not alone A push is needed on my shoulder to wake me up A hand that holds a flag and throws a stone A man who builds a gun will build a sorrow A smile that lights that day will cry tomorrow The truth we think we know is drowning deep I called a friend I haven't seen so long ago I looked at him, he looked at me as I was a foe Phenomenon, whereby, oscillations in the dark If you haven't seen, let me enlight you up I was there yesterday but you cannot say I was down but now I'm up, I am real, and so cold "Sure... I'm no one and I'm not to blame or whatever You start to fall the man, I am too much to bear The pain I feel.... I am somewhere far from you heart I going home, coming back, right back to where I start" A man who builds a gun will build a sorrow A smile that lights that day will cry tomorrow Words I can hear from you or places where I can´t be I´ve learned from use, is mountain steep It drives my heart not to fall so far but yet so tear No pain for many hours from a traumatic amputation Equals the one that I felt for being unable to tell the truth Tendencies over certainties

The eyes you stare are shinning gold, rope on a pole The dreams you had, it feels the same, so fast and slow I feel you here to quinch my thirst, I’ll meet you there I'm back again, the leading roll, that leads you nowhere The open door ahead of you Is the one to blame It's far away, I don’t' want to fly, I wanna stay It seems so strange You look behind and there's no one there Our memories are here, still can I feel, I'm still alive I thought I knew, but after all, nobody knows Where the wind will blow... I felt no pain, I'm sun and rain, I'm your demise Fortune and pain The open door ahead of you Is the one to blame It's too far away, I don’t' want to fly, I don’t want to stay It seems so strange You look behind and no one's there I'm not right here, sometimes I hide, I'm everywhere...

Let all fear be gone Turn your heart into a stone Many miles from here there’s light and peace Sometimes late When things are real People share the gifts of gab between themselves So please believe me when I say I’m spinning round’round Smoke glass stain bright colors See my image slowly going down, down and down and down That never was a reason for the event Dark will glow away along with the shortest breath Too late...I’m in a dream In my arms than I could break it Then you’re gone and I kept trying To hold on to the shadows In vain I could scream I wanted to be a dream I can’t watch you go! Sometimes late when things are real And people share their gifts of gab between themselves Some are quick to take the bait And catch the perfect prize That waits among the shelves But Oz did give nothing to the Tin Man That he didn’t know that he already have

So here I stand It doesn't matter hear my scream I'll be present when you fail, feeling frail, I'm a bad dream I open up your heart and I can't see what lies inside I smell the flower that was placed in the vase To heal to scars we’ve left behind Somebody tell me that there will be a light Somewhere to lead the way I tried to turn around To push all the waves I believe I'm leading a legion To sing a tune that will change the long-gone days I can see, I can't cry and show no more pain That hurts so bad but like a light that doesn't shine But regardless I try to act normal And I'm in blinding free fall I´ve lost some agreements Let go and enjoy the ride Flying, carpet ride like Somebody is acting like a fool Playing to be there free, lost in pain I’ll cut the pride and turn your blood into fuel Baring all the gates Burning all bridges behind A full bezerk won’t get down easy Protecting sanctuary To see if I'm there Hey I'm here, I'm here, I’m everywhere I wanted to be heard but I'll not share a tear I won’t say goodbye The strength that I feel inside I don't know where it goes or comes from I don't dream about freedom or heroes, Nothing but foes anywhere I go The gun I had in my hand Was a nightmare and then again will set me free I'll never understand what you want to say While I was just standing near Alone in the dark, the day had just begun…
