the blackest shores
02:08
|

take me to the north
where moons fly back and forth
where flowers lie peacefully
beneath their tombs of ice, all worn out and weary
take me to the white sea
i wanna see the blackest shores
take me to the land
where the night knows no end
where dawn remains a dream
underneath the sky, a veil of lightning steam
take me to the white sea
i wanna flee calliope
i wanna feel something that's real
find the distance and nothing more

philosophy

have you ever been turned away
have you ever been ignored
have you ever thought that one day
you’ll cease to exist at all
have you ever put my shoes on
have you ever walked so far
i won’t share their joy and i regret it
but that’s the way things are
have you ever been afraid
to be afraid to be afraid
have you ever said you could handle it
and regretted what you said
have you ever been rejected
have you ever walked so far
have you ever felt so neglected
that you cursed the way things are
imma ruin their joy and i regret it
but that's the way things are
so i curse the way things are

childhood

oh fucking childhood
you wrecked me for good
i’m waiting like a dog for their next rotten treat
waiting as i should
sweet sour childhood
broken apart for good
i’m trying hard to make room for the next memories
oh i wish i could
you fucked me up
and broke me down
am i the only one to blame
you tore me up
and shoved me down
i’m a slave to your game
no mercy childhood
you wrecked me for good
i’m waiting all night long for my daily ordeal
waiting as i should
oh fucking childhood
you wrecked me for good
all i can think about is shiny blades and blood
you wrecked me for good
you fucked me up
and broke me down
am i the only one to blame
you tore me up
and shoved me down
i’m a slave to your game
oh fucking childhood
broken apart for good
and if i slit my wrists for a bag of white magic
i’ll be quiet for good
i’ll be quiet for good

loser
03:31
|

i was on the verge of killing myself
no talent, no money and no mental health
doomed forevermore, gloomy skies and skin
surrounded by swarms when your sunshine breaks in
i’m a loser
a failure
a fruitless struggle
to feel better
i’m a muddle of thoughts
i fight at nightfall
i was on the verge of killing myself
i felt like i belonged where the sweetest peace dwells
an acute sense of tragic in all the things i do
and i make music no one listens to
i’m a loser
a failure
a fruitless struggle
to feel better
i’m a muddle of thoughts
i fight at nightfall
i’m a muddle of thoughts
i fight at nightfall
i was on the verge of killing myself
a little voice whispered "just be somebody else"
i held on and held on as to feel the last thrill
i was on the verge and here i am still
i’m a loser
a failure
a fruitless struggle
to feel better
i’m a muddle of thoughts
i fight at nightfall
i’m a muddle of thoughts
i fight at nightfall
i’m a loser
a failure
a fruitless struggle
to feel better
i’m a muddle of thoughts
i fight at nightfall
i'm a loser
i’m a muddle of thoughts
i fight at nightfall
i'm a loser
i’m a muddle of thoughts
i fight at nightfall

high enough
04:21
|
|||
and yet another sleepless night
another battle i ion’t fight
i am so heavy, hold me tight
talking is tough but the pain is light
on my path of least resistance
ghostly voices in the distance
tell me i’m not gonna make it
and i feel like a piece of shit
you’re high enough
why do you want to smoke again
do you think you won’t hit rock bottom in the end
you’re high enough
this glass ceiling will not break
you’re high enough
why do you need to smoke again
do you think you won’t hit rock bottom in the end
you’re high enough
and i say that for your sake
and i say that for your sake
you’re high enough
faster you’ll crawl
you’re high enough
farther you’ll fall
trauma, trauma, sweet realm of mine
i can’t even leave you behind
nightmares color reality
i close my eyes but still I see
i need to crawl out of my own skin
silence the voices from within
but should i take off at a blistering pace
i will never reach outer space
you’re high enough
why do you want to smoke again
do you think you won’t hit rock bottom in the end
you’re high enough
this glass ceiling will not break
you’re high enough
why do you need to smoke again
do you think you won’t hit rock bottom in the end
you’re high enough
and i say that for your sake
and i say that for your sake
you’re high enough
faster you’ll crawl
you’re high enough
farther you’ll fall
back home the room is still haunted
echoes fill the void in my head
my head’s spinning, my throat feels sore
i’ve had enough - still i want more
you’re high enough
why do you want to smoke again
do you think you won’t hit rock bottom in the end
you’re high enough
this glass ceiling will not break
you’re high enough
why do you need to smoke again
do you think you won’t hit rock bottom in the end
you’re high enough
and I say that for your sake
and I say that for your sake
you’re high enough
faster you’ll crawl
you’re high enough
farther you’ll fall

the outsider
04:12
|
|||
i'm a stranger at home
my shadow underneath the walls, away from prying eyes
i’m a stranger to the world
sad as a stone bad to the bone glad to crawl in the sludge
without a noise
the sea recedes and frozen seeds sprout in wastelands of ash
preach in daylight
your hands are tied despairs collide and silence speaks volumes
your hands are tied despairs collide and silence speaks volumes
the touch of hands always leaves scars
distance is all that’s left to see
and so i watch you from afar
but you don't
no you don't
you don't come to me
can you see me at all?
lying underneath the sun i blaze and bleed and bloom
you won’t follow me in my fall
you made your choice i hear your voice resonate through my tomb
you made your choice i hear your voice resonate through my tomb
you won’t follow me in my fall
the abyss is all that’s left to see
and so I watch you from afar
but you don't
no you don't
you don't come to me
and you won't
no you won't
you won't come to me
after years of free fall
scars hurt like hell under your spell my shell’s breaking away
after years of exile
i'm greeted with a weary kiss – you don't really miss me, do you?
you don't really miss me, do you?
you don't really miss me, do you?

mallows
04:13
|

one night, i saw a hand come out of the water
as a shroud of darkness began to shudder
“could you help me come back down to earth?
i’m longing for a second birth”
and she handed me a bunch of mauve flowers
she kissed my breast and drew all over my skin
cello melodies to scatter to the wind
“if you fall, i will fall with you
it’s worth falling if we follow through
it’s worth falling as long as we’re not crashing down”
she lay down on her own in the midnight sun
she pulled the petals off all mallows but one
“treat twilight with gentlest caution
timelessness is not an option”
yearning seems so close and images so remote
and memory feels like a lump in my throat
you, reaching for a glimpse of dateless daylight
i, craving for a glass of sodium nitrite
“music fades as days go by
i died last year, didn’t i?
i have failed you like i have failed everyone”
mallows withered long ago in the noonday sun
“some memories just glide on the surface
others spring up in a random place”
no parting words to etch on the walls of silence

flowers of gold
around you
stories untold
about you
can you see through my eyes
memories in disguise
i remember
remember
remember
remember you
i’ve stolen the sun
to dazzle you
i’ve stolen the sun
and blinded you
i had to choose one
i chose you
to push me around
and pull through
can you see through my eyes
melodies in disguise
i hold on to
hold on to
hold on to
hold on to you

the kindest soul
02:15
|

i was torn to pieces
it was all my fault
and yet you blessed me with your kindness
now i take my time
oh i'll take my time
to pick up the pieces
cause you are mine
and i'm yours again
oh i took my time
to fullfill my promises
cause i was yours
since the dawn of time
oh i’ll take my time
to cure your diseases
cause you are mine
and i’m yours again
you're the kindest soul
that ever saw the light
in this darkest world
oh beacon of my life
you're the kindest soul
that ever saw the light
in this darkest world
oh beacon of my life
oh beacon of my life
