Lyrics


1. LACK OF PERSONALITY

An image - is what - you try to keep
You follow - the trends - society has breed
You're scared - of showing - the "real" you
Because - inside - you're a fool too

Just jump on the bandwagon
Listen to the stuff that's in
Go and meet your fashion friends
Then drop dead while you trendy dance

You might possess everything
Nice cut hair means girls to win
But there's one thing you can't see
Your lack of personality

Are you that important?
I guess that is what you want
Living just to show off
But beneath your mask... ??


2. THEATRIC SYMBOLISATION OF LIFE

Considering life is just a play
Where we all are the actors
Where there's no individual equality
Just the abused and the abusers

A division of these actors
They always seem to win
While the others in this theater
Are doomed to commit sins

Take up the role of your position
Face up to your situation
Is it right or is it wrong?
Or just a result of euphorism?

Wearing a mask - for deception
Mixed Emotions - detrunciation
Is this just a play - or reality?
How can I know - you are reliable?

Two divisions
Like a contradiction
Facing each other
Leads to confrontation

My inner tension
Your invention?
Enslaved by discord
And your behaviour


3. SUFFOCATION

Just for you
I opened up
Is this true?
Or just another joke?

Insomnia
Reigns over me
Heart beats fast
Again another show?

Insidious
And false insights
Again I ask
Was I so blind?

What's the point of being here?
Misery is oh so near
Happiness has fled away
I hope it will return one day

Yeah, that's life
Where I am trapped inside
Why can't I be me?
Why can't I be free?

Suffocated
In my feelings
Suffocated
In hypocrisy

Still I hope
That I can hope
In my hell
Once a happiness-well


4. WHAT A NERVE

Oh, life is just too short
To worry about the things
You really hate the most
Everything, or maybe almost

Maybe I am too radical
Because I like to criticize all,
I should be more positive
Be happy and more active

But does it really matter
Because no one seems to listen
And shall I feel any better
After you've read this preaching letter?

I know I'm not perfect
In contrary, I might be a jerk
But for all people who care
Love, trust, respect, be fair

What I'm trying to say
Is difficult to explain
Instead of slagging each other off
Help each other, then we're better off


5. PULVERIZED

Pulverized
Torn apart in my mind
Contradiction
Don't really know how to feel
Apathy?
A solution?
Insecurity
Why always me?
Behind the mask


6. THE TREE

The tree stands along
Hidden, but strong
Carrying all the leafs
For us to pick, for them to leave

Then, wind comes and blows
The leafs fall and go
But there's one that's gonna stick
That's the one I'm gonna pick

I'm gonna carry this one forever
Loose it? No, never!
But I guess it's just an utop
Based on my insecurity
Still I'll try to pick
The true leaf that won't trick
The one without a mask
But which one, if I may ask?

Then, wind comes and blows
The leafs fall and go
But there's one that's gonna stick
That's the one, I'm gonna pick
