Victim of Love 02:37
lyrics
buy track
Helpless and trapped, She’s finished her maze, No resistance raised, In love you're wrapped. Selfless and pure, Heart open to blow, To her all your love, Shame there's no cure. Victim of love, step in the line, It's too late to whine, Victim of love, step in the line, Your heart is now mine, And I shall smash it, I shall crush it, For I know you will be fine. Doubtful, yet so certain, You'll break through this iron curtain, This marathon of silly tasks. Are you faithful? Have you no mask? Clueless and wondering, Why you gave her the silver ring, You finally come to realize, Love's just a whopper, an immense lie.

The Hard Way 02:26
lyrics
buy track
Sometimes the odds seem uneven, And the cloud presses too hard, But with the circumstances given, You’ll gladly take the guard. Come at me you all give it all you can, Without any challenge it is no fun, Press me to the max, at least make me try, I don’t bow to nothing, limit is the sky, When the vultures clump above, Sensing an inevitable end, But on must go the show, You’ll stand out, won’t try to blend. Skipping all the ease, Heading for the tough, Opportunity seized, No path, when it ain’t rough.

Orwell's World 02:57
lyrics
buy track
Every step you make, And every breath you take, A thousand eyes can see. Do you realize? Think outside the box, But what is it good for? The system's gonna catch ya, Don't you know? Sometimes I look at the sky, I feel the loneliness of stars, They have no place to go, They have no place to hide, Like us in nineteen eighty-four. Find your own manners, How to avoid this world, The key is in your mind. Who is on your side? Who’s on your side? Run, run as fast as you can, But you will never win this game, Against your brain.

I Want More 03:08
lyrics
buy track
These empty streets have nothing to offer, Your blinded mind was born to suffer, I have ambitions as well as hopes, Your world is miserable I expect more. I am the independent modern man, My attitude creates new shapes, I am the one outside the crowd, And what I want is something more. These modern books full of empty words, Can’t excite me, I search for a spark between the lines. This is the way I choose! This is the way I choose! I refuse to follow, I expect more.

Bungee Ride 03:30
lyrics
buy track
Don’t cry it will pass away, It will be fine, The time can heal all wounds, Keep a positive mind. Sorrow is a black hole, For your reason and your well, It sucks away your energy, Unrests your cells. Happiness is a smile from stranger, On your way home from work, When your boss has been a jerk. Little puppy playing with a ball, When you’re sitting in the park, And your whole world’s turning dark. Life will never be the way, You want it to, You can’t feel great without, Feeling terrible too. First you must fall face to ground, If you’re to touch the sky, It’s a bungee – the more you will fall, The more you will fly.

Bloody Migraine 04:42
lyrics
buy track
I know that things are easier to say than to do, That’s the truth, I’m not a fool, it's the effort that matters, That doesn’t scatter, and I’d rather be like my mother, And father who work hard, so I don’t have to bother, With nothing other than finishing my alma mater. Let’s fail them no more, Let us be determined, Let us try hardcore, Let us make them proud, They deserve it. So our parents are not constantly just being hugged, And are being fucked with, by their very own children, The only thing we give them is a bloody migraine, Despite our lies and broken promises, They never refuse to give us more opportunities.
