What a tainted, beautiful soul A broken porcelain doll Honey colored memories In the back of her head Dandelion petals and emeralds Shattered sapphire dreams Pearls in skies of purity Silhouettes of the end Lost in this deep forest Even when you know the path Like the back of your hand Your heart keeps dissolving In a downward spiral Losing and haunting your mind かの日にあった静寂最後のキスは 色褪せた優しい静けさで 季節が失せてゆく 色褪せた優しい静けさで You just feel like broken glass In this fucking world 苦痛は本当に時間で治るの You just feel like broken glass In this fucking world 苦痛は本当に時間で治るの Moths crossing your thoughts Slow destruction attracted to flames Listen closely, look at them Messengers of the underworld Watch you and follow your steps They'll tell you secrets no one else has ever heard かの日にあった静寂最後のキスは 色褪せた優しい静けさで 季節が失せてゆく 色褪せた優しい静けさで Kerosene and sparks Urging to ignite The blank stare of death Caught in your lonely eyes Time keeps running out The hands of the clock move senslessly Waiting painfully As melting lilac snow fades away... 部屋に花 今どこにあるの? 中はくぼんだ魂 今どこにあるの? 知っていたあの夢 今どこにあるの? 器には青い魚 今どこにあるの?

Icarus 03:36
Didn't you walk down those city streets When they were all laughing at your words? And wasn't your heart missing a beat? Couldn't you see they were all absurd? Feels like I'm not in the same frequency Where everyone else seems to be… I'm not… How everybody expects me to be Wishing you could see music through my eyes Hear the colors that whisper my light Find yourself inside the storm that is my mind Saw feathers on the ground today Thought there's more to life than I can see Fleeting happiness and moments of despair... Everything inside is cracking Hear this silence whisper in your ear I'm so lost and out of it Trapped inside the bubble that's my world Wishing you could see music through my eyes Hear the colors that whisper my light Find yourself inside the storm that is my mind Searching for the fire that's keeping us warm Hoping you could understand the chaos that lives inside Read the stories that lie at heart That lie at heart... I was flying higher and higher With feathers heavy and grand Trying to reach the sunlight My tragic melting downfall into demise... Oh no Wanna jump out of my body Yearning for things to be different But it will never stop If only the world could understand!

Acid rain, toxic wastes Feel the slandering in my veins No one is to take the blame Even small ones have to pay No one can escape this plight Don't be afraid, fight or flight Cutting deep, sharp as blades Even the best of us get sprayed The best of us get sprayed The best of us so… Run from this acid rain Criticism, poison, bane Feel the burn Run from this acid rain It's so toxic, it's insane Crash and burn Venom falling upon us Infection, raging over me and you Corrupting abuse Don't forget you'll get it too Spiteful glances gleam in their eyes Shocking static, rupturing thoughts Cover yourself, they're coming down again They're coming down again They're coming down and... Run from this acid rain Criticism, poison, bane Feel the burn Run from this acid rain It's so toxic, it's insane Crash and burn Caminé ciego donde no era necesario ver Tomando a cuenta mis palabras pago amor y fe La vida vale no solamente estando de pie Si estoy abajo es mi problema volveré a creer En quien yo fui, en lo que soy, y en lo que yo seré No te preocupes si estoy lejos pronto volveré Dejaré mis canciones para cuando ya no esté Y un beso en la mejilla por si me quieres querer Run from this acid rain Criticism, poison, bane Feel the burn Run from this acid rain It's so toxic, it's insane Crash and burn Run! Acid Rain! Run from this acid rain Run from this acid rain Run from this acid rain Run from this acid rain

They said I was lost, that I'd never get far Why wasn't I living my best life? Was I wasting my time, just wasting my time… Chasing shallow dreams? Fragile puzzle pieces break away my mind Why did I abandon everything and left it all behind? Should I try to change my past? Is that an aimless wish? Imprisoned in a bed of glass They all tried to take away my light But we always have tomorrow (Go!) Knock down those silent times The light shines in the darkness And the darkness has never put it out Sleepless nights in which I thought I'd lost my heart Color the pain; reignite those faded plans Let's never stop, I'll be your running fox Now's the moment where I'll make my stand Even if the tide is high... (Towering colors floating in the beauty of a white night) Imprisoned in a bed of glass They all tried to take away my light But we always have tomorrow (Go!) Knock down those silent times The light shines in the darkness And the darkness has never put it out 幾重もの色が白夜の美しさに浮かびあがる そびえ立つ色を見つける それが浮かぶのは白い夜… いつか僕はあなたにたどり着き その夢は... その夢は続くでしょう... Imprisoned in a bed of glass They all tried to take away my light But we always have tomorrow (Go!) Knock down those silent times The light shines in the darkness And the darkness has never put it out 幾重もの色が白夜の美しさに浮かびあがる I know we're broken down and no one knows our names But one day we'll go far... And I know we'll shine again… 約束します!

Looking back at yesterday We're all actors in this play All of us like planets colliding What is the meaning of life? Fools in stupor, kissing cadavers Performing and hiding forever Like an owl with stars in his eyes Underneath so many masks Show me all your scars Feelings are blind; let me touch your heart How old is your soul? I swear I didn't cry Show me all your scars That's what I'll try to find How old is your life? There's fear in your eyes It's hard to say good-bye... Look out for the wings of the angels Maybe you should be with them Now we are walking with strangers We're swaying in the wind Trampling in forests of anger, flowers in spring Dreaming of our own utopia Now it's your time to fly Show me all your scars Feelings are blind; let me touch your heart How old is your soul? I swear I didn't cry Show me all your scars That's what I'll try to find How old is your life There's fear in your eyes It's hard to say good-bye… Show me all your scars! Show me all your scars Feelings are blind; let me touch your heart How old is your soul? I swear I didn't cry Show me all your scars That's what I'll try to find How old is your life, let me read your mind It's hard to say good-bye

The Marauder 03:25
Frustrated and ashamed I have no control of my thoughts They betray me and keep me scared Beyond comprehension Please take my pain and suffering away I can't stand all the things that keep hurting me It's unbearable It's eternal It's a grudge To stay awake all night long Being stuck in a hole instead of standing up I know about you I've been taught about you Just show me that you are real Cause it's hard for me to believe I'm sick of hiding myself Please take my pain and suffering away I can't stand all the things that keep hurting me It's unbearable It's eternal It's a grudge To stay awake all night long Being stuck in a hole instead of standing up I'm losing my path Like and ox going to the slaughter It's the road to the grave The den to my death I don't wanna go there I just want peace And everlasting grace But I'll remain silent Until I get the answer I know about you I've been taught about you Just show me that you are real Cause it's hard for me to believe I'm sick of hiding myself Please take my pain and suffering away I can't stand all the things that keep hurting me It's unbearable It's eternal It's a grudge To stay awake all night long Being stuck in a hole instead of standing up I can hear you calling But I'm bleeding inside And my legs are broken For I am unmotivated and faithless Please take my pain and suffering away I can't stand all the things that keep hurting me It's unbearable It's eternal It's a grudge To stay awake all night long Being stuck in a hole instead of standing up I'm done with the suffocation Just like the swine being skinned by the butcher But this is not the end I will seek the light

My blood is boiling, I just wanna sleep Slitting my wrists won't cure what I feel Ghosts in the fog haunting my steps Inside my thoughts they keep creeping in Never ending paranoia Feelings arise Shouldn't forget to look behind my back Killing me in broad daylight My guts colliding I'm trapped in my mind Cake for the dogs, cake for the dogs Don't know how long this will last Cake for the dogs, cake for the dogs And there is no more cake for us Cake for the dogs, cake for the dogs Is it ever going to stop? Cake for the dogs, cake for the dogs Carry the blame, no cake for us Reflections of nightmares won't disappear Voices in my head keep whispering things Just like the knife carving my skin Tattooing meanings you'll never conceal Ghouls in my skull have no mercy They like playing games Always etching bad thoughts in my brain Can't escape this madness Such things are never pleasing to bear It's all a mess… Cake for the dogs, cake for the dogs Don't know how long this will last Cake for the dogs, cake for the dogs And there is no more cake for us Cake for the dogs, cake for the dogs Is it ever going to stop? Cake for the dogs, cake for the dogs Carry the blame, no cake for us No! There's no cake for us No cake left for us No more cake for us Only for the dogs! Dogs! Dogs! Dogs! Cake for the dogs, cake for the dogs Always trying to find relief Cake for the dogs, cake for the dogs Hurting myself will not make it ease Cake for the dogs, cake for the dogs I can't bear with so much grief Cake for the dogs, cake for the dogs I better hold on tight!

Framed with a box in your head Turn the volume up Now the pigs are having a feast They're best friends with a beast Horror show Horror show Victims to the things we hear Overdoses of TV Reality isn't what it seems Or what we think it is Millions of points of view But there's no truth No fucking truth Don't fear the lights going out Your future is already in the dark They want you to stay calm Turn off the alarm Stop waking up before time Remember nobody's mind is intact Feeding our heads with garbage And the city's surrounded by mist Oh...The tangled webs they weave Just like preying spiders Waiting for the kill Overdoses of TV Reality isn't what it seems Or what we think it is Millions of points of view But there's no truth No fucking truth No fucking truth... Broadcasting irrationality so it pours out from our brains! Masked wearing jesters Playing fraudulent bets! Hogs smirking to their sins Laughing at our expense! Newsflash! Newsflash! No common sense... Run! Overdoses of TV Reality isn't what it seems Or what we think it is Millions of points of view But there's no truth No fucking truth

Nothing amazing happens here Everything is ordinary A city of red and grey Of invisible change And where everything's the same Where pollution keeps drowning us down I know you're waiting for something bigger Don't overflow Just hang around by the river Let's meet under the bridge at dusk Even if it seems like a lost cause Smoking your problems away You watched me burning the city everyday With my older brother's baseball bat While you played in the grass with a black stray cat Factories on our horizon and very little green White steam-like smoke a dubious omen of sorts Covering the city above and below Vespa bikes unhinging my consciousness Feel the beating of the bass pound my senses I know you're waiting for something bigger Don't overflow Just hang around by the river Let's meet under the bridge at dusk Even if it seems like a lost cause Smoking your problems away You watched me burning the city everyday With my older brother's baseball bat While you played in the grass with a black stray cat Why do you like making your shoes wet? While you're playin' with your Game-Boy at sunset You keep taking pictures with that old camera Push the tears back, don't run away Keep riding on a shooting star each night! I know you're waiting for something bigger Don't overflow Just hang around by the river Let's meet under the bridge at dusk Even if it seems like a lost cause Smoking your problems away You watched me burning the city everyday With my older brother's baseball bat While you played in the grass with a black stray cat I wish I had true friends Like others seem to have Those friends on whom I can always rely But I'm quite a distant person I can't hold on to such things So I know I'll never have them 'Cuz to most I'm just a stupid boring kid Guess I'm too shy I'm just like that And you're not waiting Under the bridge anymore Nothing amazing happens here Everything is ordinary

Bruised and burned in my heart Nothing can change even if I try Big enigmas I hide I run impatient, waiting for a rise Is it possible that I've become the bad one? Floating like a ghost through events, forever unnoticed The cycle repeats A contract in chains The roles have been reversed Will you still be there? Thanks to sorrow I cannot see virtue in anything Hate gushing through my veins My presence lingers Waiting for a lashing in kisses I will not be able to change Hurtful memories Can't they understand? So self-conscious Leashed before your eyes I've been waiting for so long in this cage Fathomless scars Your iciness can't hurt I'd rather have another kind of pain inflicted upon me Will I be finally allowed to spread my wings? The cycle repeats Have our roles been reversed? Please… Help me understand… Thanks to sorrow I cannot see virtue in anything Hate gushing through my veins My presence lingers In undying agony Oh, please… Teach me the way… Perhaps I'll find the kindness That cradles my broken soul Soothes the scars in my mind This anguish won't let me see If you are destroying me? Or if I'm destroying you? Thanks to sorrow I cannot see virtue in anything Hate gushing through my veins These scratches will remain In undying agony I won't be able to change… Have you been kinder to me than I deserve? Or have I broken you? Caress these open wounds Forgive me, since I'll always be... A reflection of their mistakes

29 degrees Celsius and a pleather jacket Endless summer sky Staying up late, when will I arrive? 29 degrees Celsius and a pleather jacket Endless summer sky Staying up late, when will I arrive? Black shoes, spiky boots Having dinner with the stars Sunglasses at night Wine, grass and fireflies Fireworks, a ship sailing by Seaweed and crime, beer and lime Seagulls cry resting in the dark sand Now and then Memories get ahold of me I miss those times Memories… Are they coming back? The 1000th summer History repeats itself Deep in the woods you'll find a winged girl who's lost herself Help her find her way Someplace where the ocean meets the sky she'll fly away Forever her last dream… Walking along beat-up railway tracks Stormy summer nights Feel the raindrops falling from the stars Ripped jeans, old t-shirts Won't be looking back again Fading vapor trails Dim lights and faint designs (No more!) (Won't go!) The 1000th summer History repeats itself Deep in the woods you'll find a winged girl who's lost herself Help her find her way Someplace where the ocean meets the sky she'll fly away Forever her last dream… (I...) (Won't go!) (No more!)

Infectio 04:10
The season where games were played Can people really change? Everyone's pretending to be someone else Will it sink deep inside? It's eating us alive I want to be the spider that stings The night begins again As people stare in awe Now mornings come in a vapid sunlight Under the red moon Fleetingly scattered petals They're so tired from spinning Dear hazy red moon Your color of blood staining Crimson unto white blossoms Can't break your cell made of glass Dancing sadly as a vanishing reflection In the pale moonlight Coughing up Vomiting your insides Thrown away like trash The color of tears brought from memories The night begins again As people stare in awe Now mornings come in a vapid sunlight Under the red moon Fleetingly scattered petals They're so tired from spinning Dear hazy red moon Your color of blood staining Crimson unto white blossoms もう何も重要ではありません... Under the red moon Fleetingly scattered petals They're so tired from spinning Dear hazy red moon Your color of blood staining Crimson unto white blossoms Playing a game in the mist Abandoning the cherry blossom tree Squirming like worms Begging for death Leaving behind All those background screams
