Split 02:05
Wearing fake skin A carnival of lies Anihilating senses Got feelings to deny Degradation A breeding ground for pain Cemented faces Neglected emotions Betraying ourselves A recipe for failure Degradation A breeding ground for pain Degradation Oh what it takes to be a man There's a war of heads versus hearts Unknown creatures with the same mask Years and years of building violence Fathers trying to raise lions Raising nothing but hate Now contemplate the damage Bodies disconnected from love Lives wasted by denial An army of divided souls At war against the beautiful A culture of pure reaction Leading to the great affliction
2.
Giants 02:35
GIANTS Time is freezing again The quiet gets loud Suddenly nothing make sense Dissolving in the sound Braving the silence Facing the crowd To all the words you never heard And all the chances I missed Oh the efforts that it takes To disengage Alone in a crowded room Time for the stone to bloom Your words only gives it strength A circle that you can't break Braving the silence Facing the crowd To all the words you never heard And all the dances I missed Oh the efforts that I make To disengage Space between us gets infinite A place so small that I can't quit I build these walls, they look so big But I can't quit
3.
Bloom 01:37
Politics behind your words Are easy to decipher There is no such thing as wisdom In allegiance to power Is this the life you wish for your children? Is this the life you wish? Is it lack of self awareness Or an authority complex? Take the time to name it, It will lose its strenght Is it the life you wish for your children? Is it the life you wish? Can't be the life you wish for your children Do you count me in? Why fighting so stubbornly As it was for your salvation Ignoring class war, history You're dancing with the enemy
4.
Still 02:17
Breathe It's the present that we Steal In secrecy Between movements There is a place A suspension Decelerate Finding this space Reinvention Feel Feel how the agrement is Weak It stick to nothing
5.
Voyage 01:37
There is more to see behind the concept An aesthetic war and we're the target Not even a display, it's a conquest Clearing territories from what harms their senses Erase the outline Hiding what's not valuable, there's concrete to sell Invisible barriers keeping the disgrace away Gives us back the beauty of our ugliness By any means necessary we'll reclaim the space Erase the outline Just walk the path It leads out of town We will spit our repulsive history On the perfect canvas of your disdain There is more to see behind the concept We're the aim

Solaris 02:42
7.
Sunglasses 05:15
There's a threat above our heads A promise of feral violence The weight of an abstract concept An illusion we can't escape Colonizing every aspects of life Filling spaces it creates There's an urge to redesign We need to seize back Reality! There's a threat of violence above our heads Occupied by material void Vanishing in the structural hole It sticks to what is left alone We need to redefine our own Reality! And we still can walk paths out of their maps Put on our sunglasses and never come back Learning to see what's behind our eyes And stop eating from their trashcan Shouting a “No!” that will sound like a “Yes!” There are refusals that liberates We won't crawl no more in their mess Taking back every cells of ourselves

Changes 03:06
Can't get out of my head These words like set in stone A promise never made that i count on Seasons are meant to change Everything that comes together falls apart No other reasons than your own I wonder why it makes me sad I wonder why i feel that bad When directions change i go off track I feel confused and I don't know why Can't get out of my head These words like set in stone A future worth the wait, a promising sun All things must pass away As winter came hope fell apart No other reasons than your own
9.
Lungs 01:59
It's till here It will never vanish The begining of another year As snow Falls over Paris Grey light matching with how I feel The bounds Thin like the myth Dismanteld, it meant nothing So cold As the breeze on my skin Mad at you cause I can't shed a tear And yes this is the better way I found to unleash Those words stuck in my throat since her heart stopped to beat I'm t ired to navigate between resentment and guilt I wished We would get over it This phone call I better have missed Disease Reaching another body To decimate what's remaining Now all I know Is that I loved you But things are different now I hope you can sleep at night
10.
Waves 02:49
Submerged by incertainties Fear controling the body “OK”'s not even an option Paralized by expectations Stillness when movement's needed What if I drown? Trapped in science fiction Designing desillusions Lost in familiar places Endless days filled with nothing Stillness when movement's needed For now i'm floating But for how long? Stillness when movement's needed I stopped trying What if I drown? Still, still here, still where it stands still Moving, moving, in the same old places Same old places leading to nothing Same old faces fading with the stream To nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing Comfortably fading to nothing Lost, regain, and lost again Lost, regain, losing it again
11.
Revelation 02:17
Closet christians Dreams of absolution Waiting for the sinners To be devoured by the sun Passive prophets Of the glorious catastrophy The bittersweat fragrance Priviledge of the elite "And there is nothing we can do" Secretly praying To witness the cataclysm Years of waiting To finally be released Divine retaliation An excuse for inaction Confortably pessemist There is nothing you can do
12.
Escapism 03:25
A secret world Beyond their perception Silent words Above explanations It's the few minutes we steal The poetry of our reality It's how we gaze at the stars at night See through the clouds Discovering what was always here Becomming the sun Pouring light over our darkest fears It's the art we create The victories we celebrate The beauty of the bonds we make No more seconds to give No more sadness to feed You won't ever get our attention We define our own condition
