Go It Alone

You have let me down!
I always tried the best that I can
I carried out my duty
to fulfill the expectations
which were imposed upon me.
But one day the time had come
to help me up again
because I’d lost a straining battle
in a war I called “social life”.
All my strength went away.
I depended on your backing.
all my strength went away.
where was your helping hand?
And as the days went by
and your promises were broken
I realized that I was alone
and all these words were empty phrases.
Disappointment went along
with this indomitable rage
and I came to the conclusion
that I’ll have to go it alone
Now I know that I’ll have to go it alone
What about your promises?
Ahere was your helping hand?
And I still can’t believe, that you act in such a dishonest way
You left me, you left me, when I needed you the most
You failed me, you failed me, in our common fight
I put all my trust in you and you let me down.
I will never be dependent on you again, I’ll go it all alone
You left me, you left me one day you will regret.
You failed me, you failed me I’ll make you pay for that.
What goes around, comes around

Our time has come!!!!
I just wanna know
Why is there so much division between people with so much in common?
What’s the difference? Everything is separated in black and white!
Take my hand.
Bring together what belongs together, stop destroying what has been created.
The enemy waits outside, so stop fighting inside.
Melt together, form a wall, we have to act in concert.
one life and one chance
To change the unfairness, it’s all in our own hands
We have to prevent the last flicker of hope from burning down.
So let it shine.
Bring together what belongs together, stop destroying what has been created
It’s up to you and me
To keep this spirit alive
We all have to unite.
The flame is still burning
So please, let it shine
Please let it shine
The enemy……

A trembling hand is opened
Empty eyes have seen too much
Dignity was thrown away, there is a cry for help
But you only turn away
You pass by and wash away the sight
Delete the memory
Suppression is one of your biggest strengths
no time to feel ashamed
caught in your own existence
existing on your own
a lesson in humility
wouldn’t harm you
misery is all around us
Even though we got so much
We don’t appreciate, but we don’t want to share
We have greed in our pockets
I guess I have to raise my voice
It’s time to express my rage
why can’t you see what I see?
Sometimes I wanna tear up the world
Why doesn’t it touch you in the least?
How can you always look away?
No donation, the poor starve to death
Balance just was lost
your affluent society
is just a sinking ship
our leaders are no heroes
so it’s up to us
a lesson in humanity
wouldn’t harm you
Live and let die – never more current than today
Not hearing, not seeing, not speaking
Take a look around – it’s time to put your blinders down
Not hearing, not seeing, not speaking
Extend your hand – to take this trembling hand
Not hearing, not seeing, not speaking
Take a look around….see what I see……
Take a look around….feel what I feel…..

Forgotten Values
02:36

It must be great to be on top, to be so untouchable
But what the fuck are you fighting for?
You should check on your ideals!
What do you live for? What do you stand for?
How can you look in the mirror?
Where do you come from? Where will you go to?
I guess you betray your own roots!
How does it feel, when you submit to the system that you wanted to beat once?
A vision once so clear, now you are denying it!
Miles away from the path that affected your whole life!
It must be great to be on top, to be head and shoulders above the rest.
But is it worth to pay the price of dignity?
You wanted the world to be changed, there was a greater plan.
A vision once was born, you took it to its grave
You wanted the world to be changed, but now it’s changing you
Your values long forgotten, you finally turned away
All your values are forgotten!
All your faith comes to nothing!
All ideals thrown overboard,
your will to fight turned to repression,
is there anything left of you?
do you have a pure conscience?
In your eyes the dream is dead,
But I will never follow you, cause I’ve got this vision right before my eyes.
You wanted the world to be changed, but now it’s changing you
You wanted the world to be changed, a vision fades away

The World To Me
03:54

I can’t no longer stand the pressure
To find a place in this world.
In a world full of guidelines and templates
Full of demands and conditions
A world that cannot accept any variance
A world that cannot suffer the difference
What’s the definition of freedom in those days?
who sets the rules?
Who sets the attributes to be compatible?
All these questions, all these doubts
Only one knowledge:
It’s finally time to stand up straight
It’s finally time to stand up straight / for my beliefs
It’s over…..enough is enough
I will quit…..all those sleepless nights
The only thing that counts is this life in my hands
The only thing that counts is to break these chains
Once again you analyse, your head shakes in refusal, your look is worth a thousand words
Contempt rolls over me, your lack of understanding drives me to despair drives me to despair!!
Pushed aside, expelled, have my back against the wall, but I know that it’s right,
I’m holding on to this
Never throw away your pride, it’s the highest gift you could ever own, it’s the energy
That keeps you alive
The look in the mirror, without turning away, walking through the streets with my head up high
To stand up for your faith, do you know that feeling, or is it even strange to you?
Is it strange for you?
May be, this is the hard way, I walk along my path, in the end it will pay
It fills my heart with pride
I’ll take it all back, my faith, my love, my hope, it means the world to me
Means the world to me
Take it back!!
Your Faith
Your Love
Your Hope
Your Freedom

New Chapter

How long will you cling to yesterday?
Those memories, those pictures, they’ve held you down for so long.
So many days were wasted feeling sorry for yourself
And you have constantly marked your time!
While you mourn for your past
Your whole future is out of sight.
These days they are so grey, so bleak,
But you haven’t seen the sunrise yet, so step out from the fog.
Say goodbye to all regrets and doubts
turn the page to write your own new chapter down
No turning back
Crush the barricades
It’s time to set new goals
Just look ahead
Set a raging fire
It’s up to you to rise again
What’s done is done
Let the past be dead
Past is dead
What’s done is done
No time for regrets
Look ahead

This is our city, so cold, this resigned mentality
It seems that everything’s doomed to failure
No chance to break the circle, the beast is fed with aversion
Against all that doesn’t fit to a grey conviction
This is our city
Capitol of bigotry
This is our burden
Classified and excluded
This is our city
This is our burden
This is our city
Hearts are nailed and walls built high
A mental fortress formed by overhasty rejection
Why is there no need to start scrutinising?
You will never understand, never get along
Cause you can’t see what is in our hearts
An epidemic broke out – you are infected
we do not fit- you count us out
we do our part – try to look through
We will never back down, it’s a fight for our rights
We have to resist, we will survive
A different way to live, another point of view
We have to resist, we will survive
Who are you to judge us, who gave you the right?
We have to resist, we will survive

No Time To Waste

One day there comes a point, where everything seems to be accomplished, but it’s the first step of comfort and you will take the path of the least resistance after you have reached your goal. So for now you stand still in the stay.
Here it is, my only existence and my only chance to bring my values to perfection. So many things are left undone and there’s so much more to learn.
So I’m searching for a challenge, a mission that offers me new options.
I keep asking and I’m still moving on.
Deadlock won’t hold me down
Moving forward, I will not rest
Can’t you see what is your next lesson?
One day there comes a point
Where everything seems to be accomplished
But this can not be the end.
There must be something more.
More than this daily routine,
Which lets me run in circles
I wanna take this opportunity
The horizon is not enough
I wanna feel that I’m alive
Without challenge, there is no meaning
the only thing that remains is apathy
No time….no time….no time to waste
Deadlock won’t hold me down
All my dreams will come true
No time….no time….no time to waste
Searching for a new challenge
Searching for something more
No time….no time….no time to waste
Deadlock won’t hold me down
All my dreams will come true
No time….no time….no time to waste
Searching for a new challenge
Searching for something more
No time….no time….no time to waste
Deadlock won’t hold me down
All my dreams will come true
No time…. no time….no time to waste
No time….no time…. no time to waste
