Individuality is not a part of me -
I'm just the same shit like everyone else.
It's the constant burden I feel in my chest.
My PFC is making jokes of me.
I don't know what to do.
I'm afraid of the looks staring into my heart.
It's not reality, but it's me.
Forcing happiness in the state of my mind
is not a valid thing to leave this place behind.
There's just anxiety - the fear of constant failure.
I force myself, but I can't move.
I push everything away, that could lead into a change.
It's pathetic.
Sing me to sleep.
You won't.
This is my second battlefield.
Don't know who I used to be.
I can't admit I already lost you.
Forcing happiness in the state of my mind
is not a valid thing to leave this place behind.
There's just anxiety - the fear of constant failure.
I force myself, but I can't move.

First Song

I can't go on.
I'm stuck, but I'll never look back.
I can't go on, but I'll never look back.
Take a step to the end.
I'm not afraid, just concerned.
I'm not afraid, just concerned.
What's wrong with me?
Self-loathing thoughts are burning me.
Sadness keeps getting us.
Sadness keeps getting us.
Your stare is the last nail to my casket.
I thought this life got more for me.
Writing these letters - songs I will never sing.
Was this worth it?
Was this worth it?

Define My Chaos
03:31

I'm running into the endless void
to adore the everlasting night.
Finally feeling free -
could be who I want to be.
Is this my only way?
The night is crawling in me.
Confusing thoughts define my chaos.
Maybe this is asked to much:
could you stay by my side?
I'm feeling anxious in this time.
Don't know what I'm longing for.
Just another year and everything will change.
I'm afraid, but also looking forward.
Moving away - ambevalence.
Confusing thoughts define my chaos.
I see beauty in the asymmetry,
in the blackness of my thoughts.
In every change, in jeder Angst.
In every change, in jeder Angst.
Please excuse my mind
and my confusing thoughts.
It's hard for me to tell something about me.
That's why I write these songs -
to concentrate on my thoughts,
to reflect my inner self,
to get rid of my chaos.

Stop The Ache
04:19
|

|
Neither this will change,
nor I will stand a chance.
Everlasting rain will kill my thoughts
and every memory in my mind.
I'm so sick of crossing lines.
So sick of all these sacrifice.
Artist in my head, make me neglect
the past and every hope in my thoughts.
And every love. Stop myself.
Create my own noir -
living the grayscale.
Stop the ache.
Is this a part of me?
I wish I could see the disparity.
There is only grayscale in me.
Kill every memory in my mind.
I'm so sick of crossing line.
So sick of all these sacrifice.
Artist in my head, make me neglect.
I'm begging and I'm screaming
and I don't know why.
Artist in my head, make me neglect.

Show me the way to fill this hole
or just feel nothing at all.
I want to be the apathy
to forget the past four years.
To forget my goddamn failures
of the past.
To break out of this hell.
I can't express myself.
I just can't find the words.
Now I take a last breath
and cough out my lungs.
Show me the way to fill this hole
or just feel nothing at all.

I wrote a thousand notes about love, about self-loathing,
but I can't describe this feeling in my chest.
I can't figure out the words I should say.
But I guess it's okay, you wouldn't listen anyway.
I'm not that important - it's what hurts the most.
It's the car crash, that's lingering in my head.
If I should die, it would be alright.
It would set me free and it wouldn't be a reason to cry
nor a reason to hide.
But I can't take the way out.
I'm afraid time is passing by.
Take me to the funeral pyre
to extinguish the fire.
I wrote a thousand notes about love, about self-loathing,
but I can't describe this feeling in my chest.
I can't figure out the words I should say.
But I guess it's okay, you wouldn't listen anyway.
