Disconnected 07:05
The light is turning on Substitute the rising sun For who would scrutinise What they can not see Just push on and survive Avoid the strife Just relish in beautiful indifference A fugitive mind Tunneling on what‘s been defined. [We will comply] It‘s refined Who did decide, that choices leave closed doors behind? No chance to rewind [The flow of time] Hide behind your mask So you don‘t have To withstand the gaze If you dare to reflect The pages keep on turning And the world is drifting on Falling for eternal morrow The answer lies within you No one else to blame Trust your sensitivity It is your birthright to be free I‘m the author of my future What is real? Drowning in sweet succulent pleasure More than the amplitude of hope [keeps me so inspired] And so are we to go [keeps me so conspired] Or soar the skies confinding What has to come? I‘m the author of my future Hanging on, hard to breathe Grinding gears, clenching my teeth Searching for something unclear Avoiding to perceive the here Lost in thought to be found in pain Work in peace to rest in vain The pages keep on turning And the world is drifting on Falling for eternal morrow The answer lies within you No one else to blame Trust your sensitivity It is your birthright to be free I‘m the author of my future

Glass Bridge 06:06
Panoramic view Sparkling reflection A ray of light obtained From a source unknown Prismatic steps on a Crystalline staircase Can this chromatic Transparency Provide a pathway Approaching the surface Tiptoe on the light Testing the water Entrust it with my weight Breathe! Feel the thrill of the height Fight against the urge To look down Below lies death Seek and take a different angle Make your move! The swaying of my feet Pulsating underneath Hard to beat The sensational presence To truly feel oneself Set apart from my entangled past Feeling the ground Give in, underneath Have I been too careless? Been naive? Who am I to fall for this construct of dreams? Nothing can be build void of substantial means It seems Has it been in vain? All the times I fell, trying to obtain A sense of clarity To figure out the dream That was designed for me Breathe! Feel the thrill of the height Fight against the urge To look down Below lies death Seek and take a different angle Go make your move!

Incineration 04:09
Rage The light is blinding my desire You coward, jump into the fire Thundering pain, uprising Now go load the cannon, soldier Throw infernal rain on the invader Pain Suppress the headache like a fighter You're condemned to burn even brighter No time for false emotions Open your heart to the demon Who leads you to the Garden of Eden The mind collapses Pulsating pressure inside The I collapses And all comes crashing down The unconventional, primal desire To break out and leave me behind Overwhelmed to find a semblance of sanity What's the fix to this conflict of minds? No more questions now! Only actions now! What are you doing? Just go Make your move! Must I Sacrifice All I've been taught? Must I go? The mind collapses Pulsating pressure inside The I collapses

Erosion 05:15
Beyond time and space I wander Unarmed, unaware, uncertain How am I supposed to find Solitude and pride? Someone provide me with guidance To push through this merciless tide I need to take a stance for my cause To prove I can compete with my gods But I must realize that I can‘t fight Against my nature Take me back, give deliverance Ignorant pretense be gone! For I choose to abstain As everything‘s fading I begin to understand That within my cavity The seed already lies To exalt my senses Lacrimosa dies illa Judicandus homo reus Huic ergo parce deus

Thrive 05:57
Awaken the flow Establish a connection Embrace your curiosity Welcome the growth Towards a great foundation Building a basic sense of trust Trust your flexibility to overcome The result of failure It will let you grow Give yourself away and be one with the moment For far too long you‘ve been apart You‘re finally learning to perceive All the things You are Sharpen your mind and study your foe Keep a calm hand and stay one with the flow Don‘t make a sound or you‘ll frighten the prey Feeling the string Caressing my chin Holding my breath For a moment motionless The deed is done The stakes are high An arrow hanging in the air Just wait and behold The story unfolds You‘ve taken a path back to the start Release There is no escape I‘ve been here before Give yourself away and be one with the moment For far too long you‘ve been apart You‘re finally learning to perceive All the things You are It‘s your adolescence You will transcend Keep your resilience To experiment

See the motion Provided by your core Hold the ground you‘ve found at last Embrace the now, step on your path Face the chaos See the possibilities Confront the unknown Harvest the potential Be observant Go with the flow Trust your instinct Use the power to decline Energize The precise Heightened senses Savor the perception The world is drifting on She‘ll carry us, all of us We TRYt to entertain The concept of a game There‘s no price to receive in the end But to be oneself The focus is shifting All is connected and playing its part No longer deceiving yourself Embrace how perfect you are! Fragmentary disassembly Weightless in the momentary Mayhem that is necessary To provoke creativity Recognize the adversary As essential to your story Growing towards integration Realigned as one creation See the motion Provided by your core Hold the ground you‘ve found at last Embrace the now, step on your path
