The Burden Within

Wrong side of this fucking world
I walk on
I feel a knife in my chest
(But) I cannot see it
You came so close to my pain
Then backed off
I feel a stone on my head
But I cannot see it
Striving to think of an aid
Or way out
I think I’m losing my grasp
On what is real
I could have run for a day
And not move
You looked like my last resort
You were the disease
Now, on the path to nowhere
My life’s a constant retreat from anguish and fear
Come down from your throne
And face what you’ve done
Come down from your throne
And face all the harm that you’ve caused
You’ve got no excuse
The fault is all yours
You’ve got no excuse
Suffer the burden within
Carry the burden within
Now that you’ve damaged my soul
You deny
I think you’d better repent
And beg off
But I know that you feel you’re right
And god-like
Nobody can raise a doubt
You own them
Now, feel the weight of your deeds
How can you go to sleep without any guilt?
Come down from your throne,
Your time has come.

First-Degree Suicide
04:43
|

False divinities
Putting your life at stake
Their crave for power and corrupted greed
Is all that they need
Coming down the drain
You realize there’s just one escape
They guide their flock to a bottomless pit
Disguised as a spring
Fool! I was such a fool
How could I trust your words?
Nothing can just erase
(The) pain that I’ve gone through
Carrying the heaviest of weights
How could I not see the hook?
There’s only one choice to be made
That’s a first-degree suicide!
Running from what I can't see
But I know what I’m fleeing from
Bearing a crown without needles or thorns
embedded in my soul
Living an endless retreat
From armies of fear and distress
Fighting a war without weapons or shields
Defeat’s just a matter of time
Fool! I was such a fool
How could I trust your words?
Nothing can just erase
(The) pain that I’ve gone through
Carrying the heaviest of weights
How could I not see the hook?
There’s only one choice to be made
Life, death
There’s only one choice to be made
You called me insane
But I think you’re the one to cure
You should take the blame
For what you’ve put everyone through
Shattered remains
Of a life that used to be lived
Immense domains
Corrupt and built upon
Lies, fraud,
Denial won’t save you from hell!

Condemned to witness my own decay
I cannot turn back, cannot escape
I feel like I need to come up for air
But I’m already on the surface
This pain that holds me will never leave
This numbness is nothing new to feel
The future does not belong to me
How can I make plans?
You want me to live a normal life
You say that everything will be alright
You think that your piece of advice
Will put a stop to my slow demise
Society treats you like a reject
You need to function, to get on track
‘Cause if you hobble or you fall back
They’ll stomp on you, crush you to
Death, so fight back
You don’t wanna let them catch you
And turn you to dust
They’re weak and blind
So harness what’s left of your strength
And open their eyes
Fighting a war without any friends or allies
Carrying a weapon that’s rusty and won’t let you by
Leading an army of me
Myself, and I
Go!
Slave to the norm
I wish somebody had told me
That I’m not the one who’s wrong,
And everything’s corrupted
So why should you be happy when all the world around you
Is getting to the point of no return?
I think that you are
The only sane in town
They are confined to their perfect world
Until they see what’s out the door
But they avoid to look outside
Because they know they’ll find a mirror
They are confined to their perfect world
They want the truth to remain unknown
Until they’re hit by a heavy stone
That’s when their bubbles explode

Fear is my daily routine
And anguish is my greatest friend
Living a life of perpetual disquiet
There’s no hope this will ever change
Where would I go instead?
I don’t see any way out
The tunnel is long and I can’t see the light
And I’m so tired of walking
My cries of help went unheard
And yet everybody was there
I could have shouted in front of their face
Without getting even a nod
Nothing seems to make sense
Why should I carry on?
I’m just an hopeless spectator to my fall
Here’s what it means – to be
Locked inside yourself
Locked inside yourself
You thought your brain was sick
That’s what they made you believe
But what if it was the world where you live
To be in the absolute wrong?
They treat you for the wrong disease
And blame you for what you’re going through
If only they knew that it’s all their fault
They’d spare you a greater disgrace
Now it’s the time to assess
Whether it’s worth going on
You feel condemned to a life of regrets
Here’s what it means – to be
Locked inside yourself
Locked inside yourself
Science or faith
What am I going to cling to?
Life or death
I’m already living them both
People complaining of their perfect lives
(They) don’t have a clue of what hell is like
You don’t even know what suffering means
You don’t even know what suffering means!
How can you possibly win
When you are your worst enemy?
Cannot escape from an inner cage
Locked inside yourself
Defying a nameless disease
And dodging its finishing blows
The more you fight, the more you get weak
Locked inside yourself
Locked inside yourself
Locked inside yourself!

Risking the life of children
In order to make some profit
Selling a drug that will lead them to death
Disguised as a miracle cure
Rigged clinical trials
Conducted by corrupt MDs
Pharmaceutical companies driven by greed
Will give you some poison and say it’s a sweet
Altering the mind of teenagers
When their brains had no such defects
And if your son dies in agony
They say that it’s due to his disease
Hiding the data of suicide rates
To get the approval of the FDA
Spending a fortune on marketing campaigns
To inject the venom inside your brain
Lies
Of a system that’s been put in place
To make you think you’re insane
Your cries will not be heard
You’re in a soundproof cage
Psych-drugs have made you a slave
Your faith is now in their hands
You put your life in the hands of the hangman
He’s trained not to have any shame
Children bring the best gains
A very good market to infiltrate
So hide all the proofs of the harm that was made
And invade the pharmacy shelves
Voices have started to raise
Exposing the greatest of frauds
They dread a drop in the value of their stocks
It’s time for some damage control
“Everything was duly made”
This is the version for the press
But judges retained that they were to blame
For hiding an horrendous truth
Here’s what the verdict says:
A 3 billion fine and no one in jail
If that is the price for the lives they have drained
I think that they’ve quite got away
Lies
Of a system that’s been put in place
To make you think you’re insane
Your cries will not be heard
You’re in a soundproof cage
Psych-drugs have made you a slave
Your faith is now in their hands
You put your life in the hands of the hangman
Don’t think he’ll have any shame
Drugs that will take you away
From your work, your friends, your family
Are being sold as an easy repair
To a problem that they cannot fix
Killed by Seroxat
Killed by Seroxat
Killed by Seroxat
Killed by Seroxat!

Lust for Lust

Buy until you die
Spend all your money and wealth
Your value is gauged by the size of your wallet
You don’t wanna lose this race
Money is your only creed
And richness your ultimate goal
Your idols are people
Who could sell their kin
To increase their cash flow
The light that guides your life
Is coloured green and it’s paper
Your lord and your savior
You would trade your soul
To get some more
You look for any device
To crush the others who hinder
Your road to the kingdom
Why should you have regrets
When all your realm
Worships you
Economy has replaced the gods
Finance’s the new sacred text
The sacrifices of innocent people are just a collateral death
The light that guides your life
Is coloured green and it’s paper
Your lord and your savior
You would trade your soul
To get some more
You look for any device
To crush the others who hinder
Your road to the kingdom
People who feed on your crumbs
Are your only friends
Calling it a day
That’s enough
You know I’m coming for you
You’ll have to pay for turning a man into
A slave
Greed and lust
The bricks to your empire
But if we all stopped to look up to our tyrants
Their realm will fall
Why do we aspire
To become like those that deprive
Us of what is left in our lives
To increase their power
And their domains
But we are the ones who sustain
This sick distribution of wealth and gains
Democracy’s ripped and torn
By the biggest corporations
Which are holding our countries hostage
On the pretext they are giving a job
Yet they exploit their labour force
And they pollute our river and crops
To produce the crap
That we buy!
