The Dollhouse

If you listened to me
you would hear me talking
I don't belong to you
while you are mine
why can't you understand
that this is not the cake you've baked
look on the world full of fakes
and I am a part
we are masters and slaves
of our believes
pathetic hope to achieve
if we only knew that there’s no system that can be healed
no there’s no anti-aging
where there’s time
you know what?
yes I am asking you
to leave your current perception completely
you know what?
yes I am asking you
to leave your current perception completely behind
take it back
take it back
you know? the sentence that you just hurt me with
take it back
take it back
oh gosh turn away
I can't stand your fake teeth
this can’t be you?!
this can’t be actually believed
where are we? puppetry?
take it back
take it back
how can you present yourself
to me with your suntanned skin?
take it back
take it back
keep the show to yourself
unless it’s an ingredient to my enlightenment
play your cards right
you will be made up
be aware to keep the smile engraved
that can't be removed by washing
your true colours are not of note
the facade is just for show
is the facade really just for show
this can’t be you?!
this can’t be actually believed
where are we? puppetry?
and that is where I made a terrible mistake
yes you enlightened me so let me thank you for your help
let me take you by the hand
and provide for you the same
you need professional help
but you don’t know it
and that's the story of
how you fit in the system
subtract thoughts from this case
lost aspiration on purpose
because I knew I’d drown
because I knew I’d drown
because I knew I’d drown
but I wanted more
so much about the story of how I wanted to help
empathy led to endless melancholy
trial - failure, try again
the constant walk forward, the descent
trial - failure, try again
the constant walk forward, our descent
time is rare and we waste it with bullshit
no lending no ear
cause’, who got the time
to truly share what moves one?
do we get carried away at all?
you used to say this to me
but how should I react?
when nothing is alright
and will never be
you used to say this to me
but how should I react?
when nothing is alright
and you will never see
if you had listened to me
you would have heard me talking
now I am lost without you
please stay aside
If you had listened to me
you would have heard me talking
I know your time is precious
what did I expect...

From Here To Eternity
04:50
|
|||
Prevent the clock from ticking
find what was sought to seek again
prevent the night from falling
I need some time to think out loud
who am I, who are you?
I don’t have a fucking clue
what’s it all about, this show
how do I behave?
what is actually going on?
and where do I have to go?
the so called understanding
for what is real
will always be beyond my
spatial sense
the so called comprehension
for what they think
will always be beyond my
imagination
everything is still quite the same
and progress is stagnating
yet time is racing, passing by
and everything has deeply changed
can you retain the lost feeling?
our constants are varying
our constants constantly varying
bye bye to feeling awkward
ill just stay my freaking self
cause that is who I seem to be
are you the one to come with me?
I am looking for the hand to take
don't look back, don't look back, don't look back
you learned from your past, so why would you turn anyway?
let loose
move forward
just like every being
from here
until eternity
let’s take this walk together
be the ones who last forever
let’s take this walk together
I will take care forever
let loose
move forward
enjoy the here and now with me
hide your scars and learn, do not regret
because that is what it is
we are limited
cannot look aside the lense
but are we humans or are we machines?
we are limited for a reason
let us take the chance
let’s use limitation as our gift
bye bye to being static
and embrace the atmospheric life
bye bye to being formal
I’ll embrace the atmospheric life
out there in the world
is the value that I crave
if you decide to stay there, where you are
keep your suits and ties and step aside!
out there in the world
is the value that I crave
I will simply keep on smiling
if you decide to lock your gates
continue to go on

Speaking In Ciphers
04:22

Es el partido grande la vida
es el manicomio grande
Es el partido grande la vida
en toda situación
It is rising
It is rising
thanks to you my tolerate-the-bullshit-limit
is now rising
what? Sure, I can fucking follow your speech
and I love to daily drown in utter idiocy
oh. my. god. yes. tell. me. more.
your awesome secret knowledge
is what I adore
oh. my. god. yes. tell. me. more.
you are not worth any endeavors
my forensic view showed me the truth that
your friendly grin and shining crossed eyes tried to hide
you save your money for belongings you do not need
the only thing worth to save here is your greed
mankind gave you everything
your number is now up to give back
move in your marked ways
and I know how to get passed you
yes my dear I can see your key
yes my dear I can see your fine key
yes my dear I can see your key
yes my dear
as you say
custom made
very great
bullshit-castle-entrance-door
don't get me wrong
don’t take it the wrong way
don't want to tread on someone’s foot here
but hey, who cares for opinions, right?
I hope I am not judging a book by its cover
but this is gonna be a cloak-and-dagger operation
you should really lower your expectations!
otherwise your notion could become conceit
live and let live
calm down, breathe out
these peculiar creatures seem to be humans, too
wait for them taking an unwary step
and then pull the stairs away
no more chit chat
no more facile trash
I will not give up on humanity
I will not give in
because even when I lose I win
but take care, but take care
they will try to turn the tables on you
well then go ahead my friend
speak before you think
illuminate me, illuminate me
just stay the way you are
illuminate me
lead me to my summary
I feel good
I feel very fine
everything's great
don't ask me when
I am obviously
alright
right?!

A Mountain To Climb
04:09
|
|||
If all lies idle
don't give up
and plant a thought to grow
with one drop
the wind will carry your thoughts
and they will reach you again
in the moment you need them
you have heard them before
the wind carries the words
that I am too stubborn to listen to
‘It felt like another life’
that is what I will say to you
‘one day I will look back
to those thankful times
where days where hard
and nights too short’
but not tonight
tonight I am still wandering
all thoughts are broken?
I don't give up
I plant a new one
and raise it up
when the walking sticks are breaking
and when the earth is shaking
and when the wind is lashing
and when all seems too late, then
that is when the clouds are breaking
don't dream your life
but take all your strength
don't dream your life
when all will change
don't dream the dream
but live the life
why is it such a long way to insight?
with the little coins I gathered before
I will travel to the hoard, that is the goal
I finally arrive at the origin
where strangers welcome me back
I am home
I bore the challenge - passed it
I am back home - finally
I am home
cleaving my way through the crowd
each step appears to be enlightened
drifting attracted by the shine
that is calling me
if all lies idle
if all lies idle
if all lies idle
don't give up
(I can see a way beyond
I can see the way beyond)
I know there'll always be downs and ups
but why is 'now' so hard to pass?
now is my turn to leave my older
self and past behind
I won't lose myself in the gap
It starts with how I decide to perceive
I'll climb that mountain
I'll climb that mountain like a tree
open your closed mind and see
the infinite room of possibilities
open your closed mind and gain
a new perspective on the days
and you won't miss them
no, you won't miss them
and I know the next day will not be the way they keep telling me
but now is my chance to leave my older self and past behind

Darkness Falls
03:16
|
|||
say hi to your story - welcome your past
cause it is the part of you you will remember at last
just let these suckers break in
let the fakers interrupt
they will never know the uncharted
let them laugh
no matter what you are up to or which step you take
do whatever you want but be aware
you cannot evade me
in consideration of the fact that you're a hollow shell
under a spell I follow your narcissistic fairy-tale
presenting the great things you did for me
please my god enlighten me but
when darkness falls
we all are equal - cause
when darkness falls
we all are doomed / saved
and until then it matters
how you arrange the furniture
in your mental room
can you feel the power?
can you feel the strength?
I have not lost my hope for me
and I have not lost my hope for you
you are someone very special not on earth but
maybe in a different dimension
one could find the good sides in a parasite
come into my fortress just to prove my disappointment
right
your false posture tells me more - you cannot deny
maybe I was wrong
we all are wrong
how can we request to deal with us
when we cannot deal with us
the whole world
as we thought we know it
had fallen into chaos
revealment or salvation?
eternal spiral
recurring serious weaknesses
naive believe in therapy
give now up and in to insanity
eternal spiral
portrait of your unconciousness
mindplay with your fucking stupidity
eternal spiral
nothing is okay
and nothing will ever be
eternal spiral

My Aspiration
03:41
|
|||
Filled with so much hatred
insight locked quite some gates
never gave no renegade no chance
I thought that I was sure
unacquainted, but time does not care
the relentless clockwork is running continuously
unpaved roads took parts of me
to places untraveled before
but my shaded gaze wasn't able to see
the road I took to wastelands
far away from me
received what I earned - decay
and I am the one to blame
and as my heart stopped beating
I wished that I have tried harder
and then the will awakened
deal with it, change life at its core
lonely approach
Ill light the fire
and the path I am seeking
will appear right before me
lonely approach
Ill light the fire, wait and hope
that the wind will take over
the days of wait and hope are past
new aims, new roads have reached me
to create something that is worth to last
longer than me, a legacy
and as my heart stopped beating
I wished that I have tried harder
since I know the character traits of me
alter process to gain more
and when my heart stops beating
I don’t want to wish I should’ve tried harder
I’ll learn from the mistakes made and
join our mutual way to growth
lonely approach
Ill light the fire
and the path I am seeking
will appear right before me when I am ready
lonely approach
Ill light the fire, wait and hope
that the wind will take over
and lead me to my resting home
unaware, the child
easy to amaze
clumsy steps on stony paths
the road to shape, we share

Paralyzed In Paradise
03:35
|
|||
Trapped in the claws of desperation
trying to find a way out
figure out who I am
bound by the force of integration
we are not the way we are
trapped in the claws of desperation
trying to find a way out
figure out who I am
bound by the force of integration
as if I've ever wished to wish to be like them
yet there is so much more to see
so many treasures beyond belief
that are waiting for receipt
on this linear path
I am counting endless roads
days stretch yet pass by
memories vanishing in the course of life
young and already facing the end
still young but already facing the end
on this linear path
I am counting endless roads
the theory of goals
in my head so close
on this linear path
I am counting endless roads
the theory of goals
in my head so close
falling down the upper road
moving in the past dreaming from the future
faking presence about to crash into myself
getting the life that I chased all this time
now I am alone and things still feel not right
facing desires with absence
facing progress with emotional idle stand
mental status insecure
bodily functions near total failure
everything’s too much
yet it is everything that I crave
I want to show my gratitude
to all who shared with me
now I want to share
and I hope you’re believing me
when I say that
I want the best for you on this world!
and then there's the catalyst terror
about to alter world order
how can I ever feel safe
when we destroy ourselves?
