Deep Waters 03:07
The words you say make no fucking sense in any way Right now I can´t find a single reason why I should stay here any longer, chasing dreams Have we lost us, have we lost us? I know it´s not the same, I know the colours faded And I know they will recover because they always made it I could never leave you there But I just can´t reach you I could never leave you there But I just can´t reach you as I used to Looking back at your bullshit It began slowly and out of my hidden life And came crashing down like a breaker of the shore we´re starting up a war In quiet hours I revive the moments I have spent with you And I need to know that you still believe in this Inside you, there is an ocean you have so much to give then you take it all away Show me a light, show me you care and guide me through the coming storm Show me a light, show me you care Faked smiles won´t take us back where love was white and hate was black Step back

Passing By 03:43
When I look into your eyes All I see is the world passing by When I look into your eyes All I see is the world falling apart What happened to my home to my only home? Outside the window only war and mass destruction What about the secret places we used to go? Are we supposed to know? Hey man, go running with the wolves again In your heart I feel the weight of the world And I see clearly now, deeper inside there is your wish To regenerate the earth We will not bend But in your head you have a brain that makes you believe To be the best among them all

I sold my soul to the devil Small deals with neighbours, ha! Ripped him off It was not worth the obolus for the ferryman I sell everything! For who has nothing is nothing I sell everything! Your life for some golden ring Got some nice curves Well shaped my lady! You´re worth more money than I paid for you But baby your value decreases every day And you really got some dues to pay This is what I´ve learned That much is what I’ve earned There is my huge mansion How do I feel so fucking alone? I never touched ground I´ve never really been myself A muted version of a man Always crying for help Common! I never touched ground I´ve never been awake nor asleep A muted version of a man Who never puts down roots

All the Same 03:39
I can feel my anger rise as I´m witnessing How numb people have become to what they are truly saying I´m down on my knees as I seek the horizon Still waiting for the sky over me to brighten So I can finally see who is pulling our strings And is holding us back from being who we want to be Who we really want to be! All the greed and the envy blurred our vision, isn´t money the root of all decisions? And we believe all their lies Instead of even trying to use our goddamn minds Use your goddamn minds We´re all self-crowned kings and queens All pretending to be served and pleased But as we die and our bodies grow cold We´re all the same, buried in a fucking hole
5.
Set The Sails For we are leaving this safe haven We do it ´cause we can! And should we ever return Then to be buried where it all began It´s still dark outside We´ve been waiting for so long Can´t you hear the distance calling? We are fucking alive It´s still dark outside We´ve been waiting for this day to come The sea swallows every doubt And the time begins to heal our wounds Get real and free your heavy hearts We never felt so fucking alive But this ship was never meant to set us free It´s still dark outside We´ve been waiting for so long Can´t you hear the distance calling? We are fucking alive And dreaming on gets harder and harder But we can´t touch ground Never touch ground
6.
Could this be cracks in my foundation? How did I get so far from where I was No! How did I get so far from where I was When did I decide to lose my way? My mind is cloudy, I cannot see any direction My feelings leading me straight into desperation! Since I left the path of mine I keep marching on through this nameless places, Trying to never lose you out of sight Who have I become? The hand that breaks your back to pieces! I let this clock tick backwards just to see you die Like a fucking early ending The time has come to say goodbye It takes you just a step to go beyond the light If only you could focus Then maybe you could see That I will be no longer Victim of the apathy, so silent I will rise Denying everything I was There was always something in the background You were too blind to see That all I have done for you I really did for me Since I left the path of mine I keep marching on through these nameless places Trying to never lose you out of sight This is my confession This is my confession I will be gone

United 04:05
We are five And stand united Whatever comes in life, we´ll never be divided And whoever tries to make us fall apart Our rage is gonna hurt, we burn you down We burn you down! We stand united In a world full of hate and rejection We live fast but we have lost the direction Too much disinformation, too many lies we shall never find a way out Whatever comes in life we´ll never be divided And whoever tries to make us fall apart Our rage is gonna hurt, we burn you down We burn you down! We stand united In a world full of hate and rejection We live fast but we have lost the direction This is for my friends, for all the common hours This is for my friends and for the past seven years Days fly by and we´re getting weak It´s been a long time since we walked away from here So many memories are bound to this place So live it up, this is the place we call home This place we call it home This is for my friends, for all the common hours For the past seven years We are five and we stand united We burn you down, we burn you down We shout it out, from the top of our lungs Can´t you hear us now?
8.
You´ll stay young You´ll be strong As you used to All the time my friend We´ll meet again You already met the other side Standing on the edge The moment, the second Where life passes away Or lasts for another day It´s not in our hands to decide For one of this roads But whatever happens As you always said, brother Go on, live on, stand on your ground Even though, the road has ended for you Memories stay in our soul your legacy will linger We´re all fragile hearts Walking along the streets worrying About what we eat and how we dress Losing sight on what really matters to live You remind us To feel grateful for being alive Appreciate what we have and what we´ll lose Honoured that we walked this path together and Never forget your tribute It´s not in our hands to decide For one of this roads But whatever happens As you always said, brother Go on, live on, stand on your ground

about

Let us introduce you to this EP….

...first of all, this EP is of great importance to us – as a tribute, as an inspiration and as motivation to always keep on going. The EP is a product of a lot of planning, being crushed and coming back up. There are three performers because the production of this EP was suddenly stopped by the loss of our singer Mirco. Through the feeling of hopelessness, we recorded the songs with our guitarist Dommi while searching for a new beginning. As we started with Lisa we knew we can continue the work
.
…we hope that you like and enjoy the final result. Without the amazing support we received from everyone in the last year this would never be possible. Thank you all!
