So Cold

Bored of being sick, soon six feet deep My body is wrecked, my feelings are dead
Hard to find hope when you can’t even sleep My days are hell, my nights as well
I feel so bad and I’m looking so sad Nothing to lose, nothing but bad news
I need to go or I would become mad I see my time has come
Sad like the end of a book I am drifting away
The last page you never dare to look It’s only a matter of days
I'm falling falling down
I'm falling falling
Is this hell not real? I'm falling
Is this hell not real?
I am trapped in this cold reality ‘til my last breath, no escape but death
In this mirror my own worst enemy Can’t stand what I see, when I look at me
A life of pain and chemistry I guess there is no remedy
This smell of death sticks to me And darkness surrounds me
Sad like the end of a book I am drifting away
The last page you never dare to look It’s only a matter of days
Sad like the end of a book, when there's nothing behind
Sad like the end of a book
The last page you never dare to look
Is this hell not real? I'm falling
Is this hell not real? I'm falling
My own worst enemy
My own worst enemy

Burn the system down, close the circus and kill the clowns
Burn, yeah burn the system down in every city and every town
Let’s burn it fuckin down !
They say I should be moderate, but that's untrue
I’m sick and tired of shutting my mouth, when shit happens you’ve got to react
This current social violence is real and true, one three one two
And the ones who pay are us, not you
Time flies and things get worse, while the banks are doing well
The whole system is insane and keeps people enchained
And it will never stop, because we buy, they sell
The whole system is insane and keeps people enchained
Will it ever stop? Will it ever?
Will it ever stop?
Give me something good to think about and something thrilling to dream about
Inequality is what makes people shout Give us a positive vibe to hold on to
Let’s change the way it goes !
We are billions of voices Billions against their choices
Cause we’re the people
Time flies and things get worse, while the banks are doing well
The whole system is insane and keeps people enchained
And it will never stop, because we buy, they sell
The whole system is insane and keeps people enchained
Let’s change the way it goes !
And the answer is sedition!
Let’s change the way it goes !
And the answer is sedition!
Time flies and things get worse, while the banks are doing well
The whole system is insane and keeps people enchained
Will it ever stop? Will it ever?
Will it ever stop? Will it ever?
Will it ever stop?
And the answer is sedition! Will it ever stop?
And the answer is sedition! Will it ever stop?
And the answer is sedition! Will it ever stop?

Dance In The Fire
02:07

Your life is what you make it When you fail you're the one to blame
Change your patterns, transcend it Follow your heart, don't listen to sirens sing
Do as you feel, make your dreams real Deal with self-doubt, trust yourself again
No rules, but the ones you’re setting Free yourself from fears
Dance in the fire, jump over barbed wire, choose where and what you want to live
And then your heart starts beating because you found life’s meaning
Dance in the fire Dance in the fire, jump over barbed wire
And then your heart starts beating because you found life’s meaning
Live each day as if it was your very last That's why we put our heart on wax
Look forward, don’t focus on the past One more promise that we can’t keep
But living is inherently risky Just follow your intuition
Mine smells like a goddamn whisky Just enjoy the best occasions
Dance in the fire, jump over barbed wire, choose where and what you want to live
And then your heart starts beating because you found life’s meaning
Dance in the fire Dance in the fire, jump over barbed wire
And then your heart starts beating because you found life’s meaning
We’re here now, trying to live somehow
We’re here now
Dance in the fire, jump over barbed wire, choose where and what you want to live
And then your heart starts beating, because you found life’s meaning
Dance in the fire, jump over barbed wire, choose where and what you want to live
And then your heart starts beating, because you found life’s meaning

Poison Me
02:47

I love that feeling on my skin, thrills and warmth freezing my heart from within
It’s slowly taking its toll on me, you’re both a friend and an enemy
You call it chemistry, I call it toxicity
I know I know you'll take everything from me
It’s such a trap, but I can’t do without
I know I know you'll take everything from me
It’s such a trap, but I can’t do without You feed this dark side of me
Always up to you
It’s up to you
Some say the choice is yours, quit bad habits and wildlife
Decide, oh decide and you’ll have a beautiful life
It was a dream that became hell I should have known how it would end
Yes I fell, no more stories to tell Turning from good to evil
I know I know you'll take everything from me
It’s such a trap, but I can’t do without
I know I know you'll take everything from me
It’s such a trap, but I can’t do without You feed this dark side of me
Always up to you
It’s up to you
You poison me from the gutter to bankruptcy
I know you'll take everything from me and leave me feeling empty
It’s such a trap, but I can’t do without You feed this dark side of me
I know you'll take everything from me and kill all of my energy

What are the reasons to lie about your mother’s death
Three thousand times you tried to find the reason why he lied
Some wounds just can’t be healed, when the silence is loud
Some stories are painful, they're floating in my blood
It's just a matter of time to find the truth behind the lies
Always a matter of lies to destroy a whole life
Couldn't imagine all the pain / that was hidden behind your smile.
You've been cheated, you've been betrayed, a wasted life and wasted time
How can a boy, how can a boy, how can a boy
How can a boy, how can a boy go through hardship like this
How can a boy?

Listen motherfuckers, this one’s for you
Conservative and oppressive regimes must stop, it’s over, it’s over
Misogyny and war on women must be brought to an end
Critical thinking, culture and caring Reject sexism, obscurantism
You know that religions lie And put women down Be a smart guy Open your mind
I ask for more, cause she, cause they deserve better
Now take a stand, don't judge, and try, try to understand
Now every woman has to be respected in every land
...respected in every land
Fear must change sides, to be fair, so every girl can feel safe anywhere
This bullshit’s been going on for too long, let’s smash patriarchy and right the wrong
The problem is not the way she dresses, the way she looked at you or how short her dress is
I know your behavior is just symptomatic
I Hate assholes like you, the problem is you
Rape culture destroys so many lives, let’s educate and let’s change minds
I ask for more, cause she, cause they deserve better
Now take a stand, don't judge, and try, try to understand
Now every woman has to be respected in every land
Now every woman has to be respected in every land
Equal treatment and equal rights, support the cause, let’s keep up the fight I'm by your side until things finally turn alright
No means no anywhere, anytime, assaulting women is a coward’s crime Not deaf, not blind, we gonna fight against these crimes
I ask for more, cause she, cause they deserve better
Now take a stand, don't judge, and try, try to understand
Now every woman has to be respected in every land

Frustration

Too clever to not mind, like a wolf in a cage I can’t keep my rage
I tried I can’t walk this line, time to turn the page, my place is on stage
You live, you learn, I dive, I burn, why should I suffer for what I earn?
I wanna cry, I wanna run, I wanna scream from the top of my lungs
I'm looking for some better days Live like a king Look the other way
Spending my life on holidays Reaching my dreams Always
I'm looking for some better days Live like a king Look the other way
Spending my life on holidays Reaching my dreams Always
Life’s too short to not do what I love I'm maybe older but not wiser
Don’t wanna let frustration bring me down Bored of this weight on my shoulder
Take back control before the day is done Close this chapter, time to get bolder
Goodbye routine Welcome adrenaline A life of sins, an endless spring
I'm looking for some better days Live like a king Look the other way
Spending my life on holidays Reaching my dreams Always
I'm looking for some better days Live like a king Look the other way
Spending my life on holidays Reaching my dreams Always
Frustration, frustration, yeah let it go
it's time to succumb to temptation, go go, go
Do what makes you happy, stagnation, no no no
Action! Reaction! Ignition! Let it flow!
I'm looking for some better days Live like a king Look the other way
Spending my life on holidays Reaching my dreams Always
I'm looking for some better days Live like a king Look the other way
Spending my life on holidays Reaching my dreams Always
I'm looking for some better days Live like a king Look the other way
Spending my life on holidays Reaching my dreams

Work, consume, eat and sleep
Come to the marvelous country, work, consume, eat and sleep
Public must stay in its place and yours is in the shopping malls
Go buy things which you don’t need, there are hungry mouths to feed
They profit from your obedience, jump in the customer experience
Stay passive, pay your taxes, take your chance and be a prophet for the masses
Don’t ask any questions, follow the instructions, relax and enjoy consumption
Keep focus, just notice all the goods sold by hypocrites faces
No money? Get credit to buy more stuff, you’re dying for it
Nothing’s subversive anymore, power is starving the revolt
They push you to buy more and more, their business is rotten to the core
When they control everyone's choices Your freedom is an illusion
Stop listening to these voices You’d better follow your own opinion
Work, consume, eat and sleep
Stay passive, pay your taxes, take your chance and be a prophet for the masses
Don’t ask any questions, follow the instructions, relax and enjoy consumption
Keep focus, just notice all the goods sold by hypocrites faces
No money? Get credit to buy more stuff, you’re dying for it
Stay passive, pay your taxes, take your chance and be a prophet for the masses
Don’t ask any questions, follow the instructions, relax and enjoy consumption
Stay passive, pay your taxes, take your chance and be a prophet for the masses
No money? Get credit to buy more stuff

Thieves & Liars

Don’t trust them, they'll stab you in the back, they’ll steal your soul and pride like a kleptomaniac
Don’t trust them, they'll stab you in the back, they’ll steal your soul and pride like a kleptomaniac
They swear everyone’s equal, but they’re so cynical They pretend to make your life so wonderful
You sow but they reap Truth is, their only interests are political
You can believe, but you should doubt, one thing I'm sure, you will pay until your dying day They’re liars to the bone
Off with their heads
Don’t trust them, they'll stab you in the back, they’ll steal your soul and pride like a kleptomaniac
Don’t trust them, they'll stab you in the back, they’ll steal your soul and pride like a kleptomaniac
Don’t trust them Don’t trust them
We are living in this old illusion of choice
You maybe know which one you'd choose but I know all the things you’ll lose
Don’t trust them, they'll stab you in the back
Don’t trust them, they'll stab you in the back, they’ll steal your soul and pride like a kleptomaniac
Don’t trust them, they'll stab you in the back, Don’t trust them
The apple’s all rotten inside
Nothing will change my mind
Nothing will change my mind
Nothing will ever change, God bless the stock exchange
Nothing but thieves and liars, nothing but thieves and liars
You’re one in a million, so they say They manipulate you to get their way
Choose not to trust while you may Your voice never counts anyway
Doesn’t count anyway
That's why your voice will never count anyway
Anyway
Anyway
Anyway

I’ve sold my soul, I’ve lost control, I think she set me free
Here comes the night, rock & roll's bite, the light is blinding me
Nightmare or dream, I follow you, no one to trust, don't know what to do
I'm bored as hell, never feel well, except when the night rings her bell
She’s the one Wild and true I hear she calls my name, I hear she calls
She’s the one Wild and true I hear she calls my name, I hear she calls
I twist and shout through her flam
She’s the one Wild and true I hear she calls my name, I hear she calls
She’s the one Wild and true I hear she calls my name, I hear she calls
When the sun goes down, that’s when I feel alright Guided by the moonlight
And all my troubles come back, at the end of the night I’m bored and uptight
There is darkness and there is light, I need the night to write it right
I can’t stand this light, bring me the night
She’s the one Wild and true I hear she calls my name, I hear she calls
I twist and shout through her flam
Fighting my demons, as the day is done
Chasing boredom until the morning comes
I don't care, nocturne like hell, mayhem and noise yeah suit me well
I can trust you
when I am feeling blue I can trust you
when I am feeling blue I can trust you
when I am feeling blue I can trust you

This is heavily reminiscent of Choking Victim's No Gods No Managers, but in the best way possible. The styles and soundscape are even more diverse in this album, and the messaging is on point! Preach!
