In Abeyance
03:35

I've been through hell... and back
therefrom below
Adoration for mediocrity, now
I love my chains,
Leash and cage
I restrain all of my rage
Surrounded by the end of times
To indulge, wallow in, lose myself, in this pen
Held the scythe of death self-inflicted
From this shadow
A new life was bestowed
Upon the remains
Of my rebuilt soul and mind
The Resumption of Life
Birth from the ashes
From the abyss
Faced my own morality…
Jealousy was smashing up my throat
when I just needed it to explode and groan
I've been sat on a mound of fears
Phobias and suspicions, anxiety and neurosis spheres
Lost forever, disillusion down to my bones
The calm before cyclones
So be it, so be it
How can I be, reliable- the shame on me, exhales
Burning the ropes, and fall
Cut off the branch, collapse
Contaminate my relatives
Running at full speed
Running at full speed on the edge of the precipice
I might be in hell… I might be in hell...

No Place Like Home
03:28
|

We’ve been eradicated, hiding instead of abdicate,
Screaming, whispering, chaotic tone cause there is no place like home
Justify our battles, criticize our prayers
Disfiguring the idols cause there is no place like home
Shifting our gods by prophets
Preaching to the ignorants that there is no place like home
The silence of thousands is worthless
Compared to the voices of the worshipers
Convincing the masses to dissent
Manichaeism simplifies the pictures
We’ve been eradicated, hiding instead of abdicate
Screaming, whispering chaotic tone cause there is no place like home
Justify our battles, criticize our prayers
Disfiguring the idols cause there is no place like home
Alienation leads to conspiracy
Just sourcing the facts to wake up your thoughts
Disquisition, a mental submission
Knowledge of the point, but can’t connect the dots
Decorrelate, meanings and fate
No... place… like… home….
Like home...
Without considering the past
Without anticipating the future
The present becomes just a selfish path
Think about… a set of “I”s will never build a “We”
There is no place… no place… no place… like home…

A Line Has Been Crossed
04:37
|

Now, stand away, no secure gateway
This is your redemption
Everytime you pay attention to the mention
You have crossed the line
The line is crossed
Cause I don’t like the answer
And you grow like a cancer
A part of resignation
My hardest ablation
Cauterize a wound which I am pleased to watch suppurate
Add salt, felt alive but more frustrated
Devoured from inside, like forced to react
Rotten and oxide
Free will is abstract
Eructation from the past
Affliction stuck in my stomach
Too heavy to digest, flabbergasted
You crossed the line
My soul overwhelmed by this parasite
An entity, a blasphemy, eating my pride
Opposite of sanity under my sight
Devoured from inside, like forced to react
Rotten and oxide
Free will is abstract
When you cross the line
When you cross the line
I bury my mind
Devoured from inside, like forced to react
Rotten and oxidized
Free will is abstract

Silent Witness
03:38
|
|||
Never had the chance to feel the
Recklessness and impunity... walking alone
Walking alone feeling guilty
Stir-up, trigger inner demon
Demon, twisted instinct
A predator perverted to abuse
Eternal silence through the infinite limbs
Secular victims have the right to remain mute
Shouting injustice only chance to be heard
Never had the chance to see the
Recognition for the person I am
Appearance, behaviour,
Judging my soul on the mask that I wear
Cult of silence, dictatorial, floods our culture, bawdiness instead of
Indifferent from inequalities
Social conditioning to prevent you from empathy
Questioning your acts, unlearning the adages,
Woke up - Acknowledge
Woke up - Understand
Woke up - Recognize
Woke up - Reach out
Woke up - Equity
Woke up - Wake up!
Humiliation trivialized to polish the violence
When you ask for patience
I reclaim justice
Get over your flaws
Get over your claws
Get over your subjugation now
Your standards are based on the dregs of humanity… Feel it...
Your ego takes you down the wrong path of anger… Liberation through rejection
Resignation will never end the fight…
Morality
And acting in good faith does not prevent from prejudice

Wake up and sleep
On the first sight of the day
Dreaming as you’re awake
Awake is still better than dead
Paralyzed by the limbs
Of inexistence
Walking, drowning in a sea of constraints
Pressurize your soul
And sink in depth
Desperately, holding my reins
Clinging to little I have left
Face the light at the end
Only blood on the floor
Everything is bleak
It is my finest weep
Wake up and sleep
On the first sight of the day
Dreaming as you’re awake
Awake is still better than dead
No laugh, no cry, barely afloat in state
Can't feel a single feeling
Sooner or later...
Wake up and sleep
On the first sight of the day
Dreaming as you’re awake
Awake is still better than dead
Paralyzed by the limbs
Of inexistence

Lost in Lands
03:45
|
|||
You’re born in a range of space, not ashamed to erase
Confronted by reality
Hiding your eyes from the facts
The past will bring some batches of conformity
Eyes closed, necrosed
Exposed, enclosed
Illusion of an escape, feelings recorded on a tape,
Running after your tail
When you say sacrifice to their face
Discouraged by your ambitions
Same location, not horizon
You’re right,
No way…
Some day...
Lost in a place I don’t know,
Lost in a land I don’t grow
Shame… shame of what you survived
Where to die...
Or cry…
Shame on what you survived… survived…
Coward...
Waste of energy
Lack of euphoria
Those are the shores of entropy
When you say sacrifice to their face
Discouraged by your ambitions
Same location, not horizon
You’re right,
No way…
Some day...
Lost in a place I don’t know,
Lost in a land I don’t grow
Shame… shame of what you survived
Where to die...
Or cry…
Shame on what you survived… survived…
Lost in a place I don’t know,
Lost in a land I don’t grow
Anywhere
Lost in a place I don’t know,
Lost in a land I don’t grow
Everywhere

It would be wrong in a sense, to bend the knee
Cause I don’t have any guarantee
Run-around with my feelings, ignore the light she brings,
Angels without wings are pulling the strings
Solace… Believes…
Discard… refounded…
Stopgap way too kind, no more hold on me…
Stop the tears, and destroy all your fears
It would be wrong in a sense, to bend the knee
Cause I’m looking to be free
Run-around with my feelings, ignore the light she brings,
Demons without wings are pulling the strings
Plaster you want me to be
The stupe you ask me to seep
Bewitched by your smile
You're so vile
Everlasting
Apostasy…
From off a hill whose concave womb reworded
A plaintful story from a sistering vale,
My spirits to attend this double voice accorded,
And down I laid to list the sad-tuned tale;
Holding a ghost
Shattering my hopes
Despair of waiting absolutely
Grasp at straws, fill the void,
Nothingness, endless pain

One last spit on the ground
Ignore the things she said, ignore the things she did,
Accept a dying tumor that only time will kill, waiting slowly...
One last breath,
Think about the things we’ve done, think about the things to come,
And take a step back in life, dive in a bittersweet end, try to pick up the pieces
I build my shell of sorrow
No farewell
No tomorrow
Knot in my stomach and breath with one lung,
Absurd daily life but I still need to fight
Hands on my eyes to... retain my tears
Nails on my palm...
While I’m clenching my fists
Affection... affliction... persists
There is no coming back
No point of return
Doomed to bear my burden
But lifting my eyes
One last look on the phone,
Forget the smiles she had, forget the pleasure she gave,
Reject the remembrance of an expired memory, waiting slowly…
One last rage,
Don’t let the choices you’ve made become your daily regrets
Refuse the reminiscence, Take responsibilities
I build my shell of sorrow
No farewell
No tomorrow
Affection... affliction... persist
There is no coming back
No point of return
Doomed to bear my burden
But lifting my eyes
Affection, affliction persists
Doomed to bear my burden
Lifting my eyes
No other rage…
No other spit on the ground
No innocence, preference, difference, neutral feelings

And now after all the thing I went through
I’m out of the rabbit hole
Heart brand new
Don’t have to play a role
I stopped pretending
Hit the bottom, and start swimming
This is my uprising
Don’t need a new blessing
Able to see the light
That life can be bright
My eyes have new sight
Able to sleep at night
Rage out
Cage the doubts
Close the box
Stop the clock
It’s all jokes
and smoke
Existential interrogation
A question, self reflexion
I finally found my inner peace at least
Fragile balance to brace piece by piece
No more fake rictus to escape from look
Drink to take pleasure but not to forget
Rage out
Cage the doubts
Close the box
Stop the clock
It’s all jokes
and smoke
Existential interrogations
A question, self reflexion
New start
Praise for myself, I say praise for...
Raised by wolves, I’ve been raised by… who?
Run after the clock, I’m run out…
Periodically, need to take a… breath…
And now after all the thing I went through
I’m out of the rabbit hole
Heart brand new
Able to see the light
That life can be bright
My eyes have a new sight..
Finally able to sleep

Torn between what I want and what I must do
Not aware about myself is the issue
My guts tell me to leave and let this ship sink
But empathy and loyalty forces me to overthink
I can no longer go on and on and on
But I must not slam the door and just simply be gone
Need a way out need a relief
And distanciate myself from this reality
I won't be leaving myself behind
Constrained to a life that ain't even mine
Forgetting dreams and ambitions for safety
I ref-use to let this future be
I won't be leaving myself behind
Constrained to a life that ain't even mine
I'll keep singing these songs of anger and sorrow
Singing and hoping for a better tomorrow
Rise Up!
Stop drowning yourself in despair
Your place in this world is hidden somewhere
Let go of your anchors and jump in the abyss
And come back stronger with your fears dismissed
I've conceded, I've let go
Breaking the cycle and the Status Quo
I won't be leaving myself behind
Constrained to a life that ain't even mine
Forgetting dreams and ambitions for safety
I refuse to let this future be
I won't be leaving myself behind
Constrained to a life that ain't even mine
I'll keep singing these songs of anger and sorrow
Only to secure a better tomorrow
I am not leaving myself behind
Constrained to a life that ain't even mine
Remembering my dreams and all that is me
This is the future that I shall see
I am not leaving myself behind
Constrained to a life that ain't even mine
I'm done singing these songs of anger and sorrow
I am now looking forward to tomorrow
