mangokangaroo I happened upon this album out of absolutely nowhere, and I'm super glad I did. There are no tracks that feel weak, the raw emotion is perfect, and there's enough variety that I'm constantly changing my mind on which track stands out for me above the others. Favorite track: 137.

Don't Ever get caught watching the clock The miles won't change, just walk the walk Better days and lives are yet to come The future shines like hundred suns

Now break it down This earthly journey is shrouded by a cloud of uncertainty And we walk on this barren world for reasons unknown The mind is higher than the senses Measuring time is a useless impediment This life on Earth is an illusion This life on Earth is an illusion Holding bearings for the future Dissolving with the past, it's not worth the wait we`re trapped in the waking state Under the masks they force us to wear Under the laws that protect us from ourselves It feels like we are hiding in our heads (Suppressing everything) When we can't belong, it feels like we`re already gone It cannot be grasped by reaching It cannot be seen by looking (It flows within you) All events and incidents, all that occurs to me All pointing the same way Disarm me of impediments prepare me for the attunement Our existence left behind the gate Enchained by the human fate Under the masks they force us to wear Under the laws that protect us from ourselves It feels like we are hiding in our heads (Suppressing everything) When we can't belong, it feels like we`re already gone This rapid pace of change is poised to rip (us apart, there's nothing left but empty minds) Empires will fall until there's nothing left (See them roaming around to the end of time) Under the masks they force us to wear Under the laws that protect us from ourselves (Trapping our minds in cage) It feels like we are hiding our heads now from the world Seems like it's all that we know Under the masks they force us to wear Under the laws that protect us from ourselves It feels like we are hiding in our heads (Suppressing everything) When we can't belong, it feels like we're already gone

Left of You 02:22
It's not too late to walk away from the ledge and face another day without a tragedy What you are driving towards will lead to your demise You are loosing yourself by holding on to a vice I'm watching you die but my hands are fully tied but how could I make you see trough my eyes If I could make you see trought my eyes, There's something in us I have always despised If only I could see all your lies There's something inside us that's prone to demise Hurting the ones you should not hurt at all By turning into what you said you'd never become If I could make you see trought my bleeding eyes, you could see all your lies ruining everything With back against the wall, blindfolded and scoffed We're forced to forget what we seem to have lost Now do you feel your days are done? How would you be remembered? By what you set out to be or defeated by this disease But if you choose the right means to carry out and pursue a plan to create and build new beginning You could still save what's left of you
4.
By a little twist of fate You'll get soaked in this lake It welcomes you with warmeness Gentle feeling of softness Like a sun going down, escaping from you You feel tired and worthless Where there was a light, now is darkness It`s consuming you to the bone The small crucial fragement of fate Uniting two as one since the day It comes so strong, so strong feel it is going to be everlasting And you embrace it in your arms Hold it dear Never let it go, even the sun goes down You open your eyes wide with fear You are going to be alone again Just empty shell Empty, disposed Crucial fragment of love Lifting you high, so high above Giving you a place to be at, something to hold on to Until it all comes crashing down Forcing you down on your knees Down on your knees Until you start to drown By a little twist of fate you'll get soaked in this lake It welcomes you with warmness Gentle feeling of softness You`re going to be alone again, empty, disposed, holding on You fight for it, not wanting to lose The harder you fight, the more you lose
5.
Paranormal 02:49
Get up This is it, you're the one who's to blame The train you have derailed is headed the wrong way And there is no way in hell to make it right When no price is too high for a peace of mind So it goes, we have all seen it before Saving what's left but you'll never be whole Another sad story of a long lost soul This was the fate you brought upon yourself Victims of your ill-advised escapades will arise to claim their rights (forever haunt the mind) Wailing in the night, an odor in the air Aching in the bones, a growing wake of dispair Meditate on world peace everynight, in due time, the truth is realized Worlds that are beyond us, surround us, they bind us The Voices insider can't be denied So it goes, we have all seen it before Saving what's left but you'll never be whole Another sad story of a long lost soul This was the fate you brought upon yourself
6.
Break it down now You`re the one in every hundred I can't allow The cause and effect speaks just too loud Their spiteful presence creates a stormcloud By their parasitic, predatory lifestyle Displaying emotions only to manipulate To satiate the compelling need to dominate A shallow sentiment in distorded mind Inimically assigned to carry out design Disregard for a a human life, They make peace in destructive frame of mind We're left waiting at the end of the line We're marcing towards the end of mankind (x2) Hiding behind the academic gown While the white-collar criminals are calling the shots While corporating the profit and the power Drain the money out and drop them from the top Feeding off the weak and selling out our lives Reap the unsown and live high for a while Indulging in synthetic opulance, drain the money out As the waves, crash over me And it pours in my heart and heads back to the sea As the waves, crash over me All the troubled thoughts are washed away from me Short-term gains and long-term pain You can try but it's never gonna change me I've got heart and i will stay strong for every true word is a promise worth keeping The earth will not forgive We deny whats essential to behold We're lied to, I can see right through The veils that's been raised whyle the world is sleeping They are all around you no matter where you go In avoidance of feelings there's no care for the world Granstanding, untrustworthy, devoid of shame and guilt It is by those same methods that the modern wold is build It's in this sinking feeling where all troubled thoughts are washed away and now The ocean lives in me, the ocean lives in me As the waves, crash over me And it pours in my heart and heads back to the sea As the waves, crash over me and the ocean lives in me Devoid of shame and fucking guilt
7.
From the cradle to the grave, to the end of days We all should dance while it lasts Don`t wait for an other chance It`s written in the stars, in the stones, in our scars The notes of life are running out of time, by leaving all behind, that`s something to keep in mind Nothing is waterproof, our dreams, hopes and free will Deaf, dumb and blind and sanity`s out of sight But still it flows within Nothing is fireproof, our flesh, papers and the truth It`s true what they say, it`s incorporated in our DNA Small things make what we see, as the essence of every human being Break it down It`s written in the stars, in the stones, in our scars No matter what you`re taking part, in a wonderful piece of art It dwells deep beneath, the basic instinct that keeps us alive No need to believe in, no faith is required to survive There is nothing left to say, only the music can take the breath away Difference between you and me, it is the greatest art of living In perfect harmony, from minor to major key By using the whole range of scale, the notes of life will be then rearranged Nothing is fireproof, our flesh, papers and the truth Even the stars are already set to burn Nothing is waterproof, our dreams, hopes and free will They drown as the tide turns and closes in
8.
Like a flickering light Guiding through a dark room Like a terminal mind Set off forevermore hopeful This vision dances in my head And I toy with the notion Of walking into the fire To revel in my emotion There's no telling what lies ahead I've bid farewell to my shadow friends For something else that's worth more in the end There's a difference between the buried and the planted Candles and all prayers for those left stranded No matter the cost Despite the worst odds There is a distance I must go This moment is all that I control All that I control is here and now Soul searching Reaching deep within me Solely relying on the wings of fate to carry me With my head in my hands My soul remains unawakened Cut out the noise and set your mind in motion There's a difference between the buried and the planted Candles and all prayers for those left stranded No matter the cost Despite the worst odds There is a distance I must go This moment is all that I control All that I control is here and now Clearing the day Rearranging Shaping everything I found the way For the self to resonate With the clarity of an open sky Navigating now by the stars aligned With serenity, steely-eyed Fueled by the burning lust for life There's a difference between the buried and the planted Candles and prayers for those left stranded No matter the cost Despite the worst odds There is a distance I must go This moment is all that I control All that I control is here and now There is no telling what lies ahead Some things I just can't pretend I've bid farewell to my shadow friends For something else worth more in the end

Slave State 03:37
You are for sale, you are the slave The bottom line an early grave Bludgeoned to control the voices untold Paying back the debt, giving your mind a total reset (Through slaves and apathy) A new era for neo-humanity The future is realized through slaves and apathy Upgrading the children of anarchy Embracing the evolution of machinery Through the ashes of our fallen souls Embracing rebirth and our new roles We have to forsake the one who knows Leave it behind, watch it burn as the future unfolds Avatar, I am your fucking savior Slave state, a present contagion I am your savior A death trap built to sustain our constant fears Vicariously entertained through uncontrollable tears Through the ashes of our fallen souls Embracing rebirth and our new roles We have to forsake the one who knows Leave it behind, watch it burn as the future unfolds No way to see, just live to believe that we are slaves to the system Our minds wiped out of all wisdom No way to see, constantly living to believe Just wait and see the machine will be set free The future's shrouded in a mystery, what will become of us No way to see just live to believe, forsaking all the trust Just live to believe That we are slaves to the system, our minds wiped out of all wisdom, wait and see the machine will be set free Through the ashes of our fallen souls Embracing rebirth and our new roles We have to forsake the one who knows Leave it behind, watch it burn as the future unfolds

You drew the line, when I myself was unable I have your sweat and tears to thank for growing to be this stable This one is just for you You were there in my life since I opened my eyes Helped me find the way, pains went all away You knew then the things that many can't notice You are the main part of anything You drew the line, when I myself was unable You say you are not perfect, I don't need you to be I have your sweat and tears to thank for growing to be this stable What if all comes down to what matters? That you are there for me You gave my life the meaning it needed Without you I just cannot survive You helped me when I was in trouble Helped me with a dream, dream that I wanted to follow I'm sure it's hard, I know it now The courage it will take to pick me up when falling down You drew the line, when I myself was unable You say you are not perfect, I don't need you to be I have your sweat and tears to thank for growing to be this stable What if all comes down to what matters? That you are there for me You are there for me You make me wanna try harder for all you've done for me and my brother To me nobody can't be above Guess all I wanna say is, "I love you" How can I pay you back? Time passes way too fast I wanna hold on to all the things that made you laugh I promise I will fight, I fight through all my darkest nights So I can show you how much I love this life You drew the line, when I myself was unable You say you are not perfect, I don't need you to be I have your sweat and tears to thank for growing to be this stable What if all comes down to what matters? That you are there for me What matters? That you are there for me I love you

I've seen how far we've gone and its breaking me I've held on to this stone and it's taking me down Untroubled childhood bliss, turns to pain and suffering It's just a way of preparing you for the cold realities of everyday strife it's just way of ingraining you with this grand subservient way of life. Now there's a void in my heart, but i could not go beyond and the way I used to be feels so far away It's just way of ingraining you with this self-unsustaining of life There's no escaping our fate The course remains the same It's just a way to bring you under their control and tell you that it's for your own good It's just a way it was in a time of life when you were the one who willnever be understood I won't sign my life away I won't sign my life away Now there's a void in my heart, but i could not go beyond and the way I used to be feels so far away It's just way of ingraining you with this self-unsustaining of life There's no escaping our fate The course remains the same When there was nothing but time for our lives to begin There was never need for us to pretend When there was nothing beyond the confines or our skin And all that followed will die in the end There was nothing but time in our hands for our lives to begin We always were ourselves, there was no need need for us to pretend There was no need for reaching beyond the confines of our skin What's left is memories and the rest will die in the end Can you feel in your heart, it's calling you from inside and telling you not to be afraid Can you feel when your heart is waking up the truth and telling: "There's still hope for a change"
12.
A journey on the path of my heart to what I truly am And came here to be a crossing over into a new beginning A trip into a path of though, turning into a feeling Growing beyond all the false boundaries, never passing Reaching for the things beyond our grasp Believing in our heart that hard times won't last I may have be down but will rise from my past Reaching deep within to find the courage to see this trought
