This dungeon of flashing lights, the telltale heartbeat of the bass drum. If this is liberation, I only want to close my mind. And the whitewashed beauty, you've painted on your scarred faces, will smear and this drug-induced happiness will disappear. It will all disappear. This will all disappear. This will all disappear. It will all disappear. What you think of as flying is free falling into a bottomless pit. You're a failed Icarus, whose melted wings were never real. You're already failing. You're already falling. You're already falling. You're already failing. So stop telling me you're in control. So stop telling me you can stay out of it. So stop telling me it'll be different with you. Stop telling me. Stop. Keep telling me that I just don't understand. Well, this time I'm proud not to understand. Keep telling me to open my mind and follow you into the haze. Keep telling me to open my mind and follow you into the haze. Keep telling me, keep telling me, keep telling me. Just keep telling me. You've already failed. You've already fallen. You've already fallen. You've already failed.

You) Small minds take cover behind words too big and precious for your filthy mouths. Twisting, distorting, just a carcass is left. You're eager to use us, to get what you want. You add fuel to the fire, if you see it fit, perverting all meaning, to fit your own needs. You're nothing but vermin, sucking our blood dry. Empty words and empty eyes, served with flashing lights to distract us. The ghost is long gone, but nobody seems to notice the empty shell left behind. What are we gonna believe in now, when all the fakes and cheats blend in so well with the crowd? Forced to play by your rules, we refuse to surrender. Deaf to dead words, stakes cant be higher. You're nothing but vermin, sucking our blood dry.

"Just grab my hand..." He said "And never look back. I promise our lives will never be quite the same and if we ever come back our scars will tell stories,our faces will bear the mark of our failures and glories. We will be ourselves in a world full of no ones. We will find our place in the midst of nowhere" "But please, tell me" I replied "How will we know what to do and where to go? How will we tell the right from the wrong? Shouldn't we just play it safe and happily sit in the cages built for us and never stray from the marked path?" "Here all roads lead nowhere and all maps are useless. No compass can guide us and Virgil... is dead. It's time to take heart, set out and look up to the stars for guidance becoming the architects of our own fate. Now it's time to try something new and show the ones that will come after us that we should question everything and everyone, if we truly want to live on our own terms"

Burn bright and quick and move on. Let the sheets cool down and get ready for the next one (for the next one) Get your hopes high for the 100th time, begging for him to be the right one. They all end up being no more than memories (no more than memories) Swap them, have no regard, they are just means to an end. A way to quench your thirst, to satiate your letch. But you keep sinking down, feeling emptier every day, devoid of the love you crave,no matter how hard you pray. Devoid of love, emptier every day. Burn bright and quick and move on. Let you heart cool down.

That's how you waste your days, daydreaming about steel biting flesh. Black water filling your lungs and merciless tragedy falling down on you. (Your) suicide notes are just a fashion statement. Depression is the latest hair dye color in vogue, (and) your sorrow is just a teardrop compared against the ocean of despair. Your days are marked by mourning. Yielding to darkness to be in the spotlight. Is your life really such a hell? Then, why the gloomy face?. Just keep in mind that life is precious and tomorrow we really could be dead, so we'd truly be out of options. We don't get a second chance. Raise your spirits. Refuse to sink. Gather up strength. Forget the black and pink.

I wonder when did we go wrong? Why are the fools still praised? When where the voices of young passionate hearts silenced by the roaring of the simple minded? Tell me because I wanna know where did we go wrong. So, tell me, where did we go wrong? How did this come to be? The vicious and cruel exalted as heroes, the kind and gentle mocked as fools, This is it. I've had enough. Bridges will burn down. I'll make my stand clear once and for all, I figured a long time ago what this is all about. All this years mean so much to me but still I wont fall in line and I'll never pledge allegiance to their narrow vision of this. Because I know who I am and where I stand, and I'm not afraid of burning all this to the ground, knowing that the ones who are true will remain. C'mon! Scream with me! Together we can make it be what it should be! It's not about the violence, it's not about who's the toughest one. It's just about us standing together side by side. You and me together, screaming side by side.

An Open Question

I have every faith in the world that you will fail me, and that I will fail you too. And if we're going to make every little mistake into a battle line, let's get this on. Tell me, is this worth it? Tell me, is this worth it? Tell me, do you even know what we're fighting for? Tell me where we're going with all of this? I'm just sick of all of this fighting, I'm just sick of demonizing anyone who disagrees, of making things so black and white. I still can't decide whether it's sadder to know that there are no angels or that there are no demons. I know it's harder to admit that you might be wrong, when everything seems so wrong. I know it's harder to question yourself and your beliefs than to condemn everyone. There's nothing left for us but to compromise and find some common ground. Do we listen to reason, open up to the other, or push everything away? Tell me, is this worth it? Tell me, is this worth it? Tell me, do you even know what we're fighting for?
