Track Name: no interest, no remorse
The world is just so easy, there is no remorse

as long as we're not thinking, about the consequences


Life is awesome

Living for the moment, present satisfaction

in a selfish lifestyle

We don't give shit on future generations

No !


We'll pay the price for our behavior

Convenience supports corruption

We watched the process, blank-faced, reckless

It's time for change! it's now or never


This materialistic lifestyle,

we never think of what we do,

so programmed and so affected, we're flooded with bullshit...


WE'VE WAITED FAR TOO LONG !
Track Name: passion vs fashion
Poisoned by the money and affected by society

he told me how to do my work.

We should play the music that everybody likes

in order to get rich and famous.


He’ll never understand

and I tell the same old

story once again

that we don’t care bout

popularity.

We’re living our dream.

We won’t create a trendy mix of bullshit.

And we will never sell our souls for profit.

Cause passion is the key

to satisfaction.


When he told his stories I think I lost a friend.

He had become so superficial.

Every day the same old shit about money and career.

This stupid crap just makes me sick.


Speak to my hand.

I’m not interested.

Speak to my hand.

I’m not interested.
Track Name: controlled by mr. telly
Tell me… Is this reality? Give me a helping hand…

Life’s not what it seems to be

They want to repress your opinion; the media tells you what to do!

Time after time, is that a problem for years?

Is there a way, to live your own dreams, questions won’t get out of my head....


There is just one thing left to say

Wanna make decisions on my own

There is just one thing left to say

Wanna react in my own way

There is just one thing left to say


I don’t need a voice now, which tells me what to do

I try to realize

What this world gives to me

I try to realize

Is there someone you can trust??
Track Name: hard to sleep
Do you know these days, they come and go

Your anger’s great your batteries’re low

Life’s not easy, where’s my last chance

There’s no one left to hold my hand

Do you know what I’m talking about

No matter what I do, it’s all in vain


What can I do until tomorrow, with all these debts today

So many dreams but there are sorrows,

Depress me everyday

How can I end this daily horror?

I’d like to run away


I’m sitting here, depressed, alone

Where are my friends, where have they gone!

I’m just waiting for better times

Got too much of beer and wine

I cannot understand, what’s going on

My life has come to such an awful ending


Oh I can’t see a chance to survive,

Will there be an end??
Track Name: empty road
Sometimes I wanna be alone

Sometimes everything goes wrong


Sometimes I wanna be alone

Sometimes everything goes wrong

So wrong... I’m on an empty road, with no hope

But there’s music

The reason that keeps me alive

In awful reality

An endless tragedy
Track Name: unwanted and inculpated
I see those cheerless faces

and disappointment!

I see those cheerless faces

and disappointment!

Sorrow!


How can it be, the endless annoyance - how much can a family bear?

Useless efforts for a life with future, but the government says no!

We send them back,

we send them back,

without turning a hair!


I see those cheerless faces and disappointment.

Wasted time - they're like me and you.

Broken dreams - deportation.


Moral breakdown, no more justice, what's the reason ? Xenophobia?

We send them back....


How can someone sleep at night ?

Preconceptions, will they end tonight ?
Track Name: the downfall
Everyday I enter a world

with a so-called modern society


The guy with the white pride tattoo on the right hand makes me sick

As well as stupid old ladies staring at a black man anxiously, for heaven’s sake!

The lack of education, is splitting our nation

The breeding ground for racists and one more strife


Breathe in the fragrance of desperation

Everyday I’m gasping for more

Welcome, welcome to another redneck nation

We celebrate society’s downfall


Whats going on here today, something is in the air, a curious look hits my face, I cannot believe...

All these bastards around, ready to rumble. This is not a dream! I cannot believe...


Words cannot express what I see and words cannot express what I feel
Track Name: hopeless attitude
I can’t believe what you’re saying to me

You try to convince people with your

Strange ideology

A raging person, what was going on?

Sometimes things happen between people that cause scars, so deep that they will never entirely heal?


I tell you...


We all know that something’s wrong with you

Your self-hate… Your hopeless attitude


You were never a person with a life full of friends

Maybe guy, this could be your last chance

To change what you try to be, why do you need a scapegoat, an enemy??

But then you’re stammering words bout how governments have to act, bout how they have to work and how they have to react


Are you proud and satisfied with yourself? Do you like that when you focus your hate on the others?
