Too Weak
04:44

I’m too weak to stop drinking
although I know it's killing me.
My ship of pride is sinking
down deep into the sea.
I'm too weak to stop smoking.
It reminds me to breathe.
And can you please stop hoping
that anything will stop my need.
I'm too weak to apologize
‘though I know that I’m wrong.
I’m feeling hypnotised.
My great fear ties my strong.

When You Fade
03:43

It’s cold in here.
I lost my fear.
I lost you my made.
Time knows my name
this horrible game.
When you fade.
Was it right or was it wrong?
Relations’ are kind of strong.
When I sang then it was useless.
No one is hearing this song.
Once you appear, that’s a promise.
I meet you in my daydreams.
I do miss you, I’m honest.
Hope time’s not long as it seems.

Cut Your Losses Early
04:21
|

|
I don’t believe in words.
They are gone after a breath.
And the sound that‘s in my ears
is only the attempt to keep me away from death.
I don’t believe in reasons
‘cause most reasons got no sense.
They are changing from season to season
like the lovers dance.
Cut your Losses early!
Cut your losses soon!
Cut your losses early
and get out of my room!
I don’t believe in a kiss.
I used to do it a lot.
But the taste of your lips
reminds me of the lost that I got.
I don’t believe in you.
‘understand if you do me the same.
I don’t believe in you.
‘cause love is a harmfull game.
Cut your Losses early!
Cut your losses soon!
Cut your losses early
and get out of my room!
Cut your Losses early!
Cut your losses soon!
Cut your losses early!
Anything else is my doom.

Trust Is Only A Phase
04:17
|

|
Trust is only a phase.
Emotions mostly vage.
You cannot count on me
and I cannot count on you.
Dressing up,
making fine.
But not for me.
Are you still mine?
Whispering “love”.
Gambling for a touch.
But not for me.
That is pretty much!

My god doesn't need my prayers
and she doesn't need any praising song.
My god doesn‘t need our donations
and no holy religious nations.
My god doesn't need martyrs
and no war for true faith.
My god doesn't need our sacrifice
and not the victim of this young life.
My god doesn't need celibacy
and no confessional for sinners.
My god doesn't need your indulgence trade
and no cross chain around the nack.
My god doesn't need a representative.
No holy worshipped relics.
My god doesn't need a raping priest
and no fake psalms.

Infanticide
Killing what is mine.
Until there is no one left.
Infanticide

The Box (Bonustrack)
04:38
|
|||
|
I had a box made out of my skin.
And I decided to put something special in.
First I thought of love but I might be regret’ it.
So to my shame I put in my pain.
Now it lays in the attic.
Since I am feeling static.
No feeling is real, no teardrop is wet.
and I never cry before I go to bed.
Pain is not made for captivity.
This box can’t resist my gravity.
First I’m creeping up, then I start peeping up.
So to my shame this box can’t handle my pain.
Now I’m laying in the attic
and I’m feeling more static.
No feeling is real, no teardrop is wet
and I never cry again before I go to bed.
