Of Us
All things come to pass in time Our dreams among the first but we still try We’re still here Sometimes not sure of reasons why But we feel Now we are alive It’s not so easy Not what it seems You see the surface Not what it means But we carry on, we strive We push our mongrel cart, not sure how to drive And it’s a dirty road, pits and dust We keep moving on cuz we feel we must We’re still here Sometimes not sure of reasons why But we feel Now we are alive We could be acting We could pretend: We’re more than you see! …but to what end? Determination Sweat and some tears And then you’re ignored Guess how it feels No complaint in these words We understand, accept terms We wish one day we could say It was not all in vain Hail that day! No excuse in these words We understand can’t change the terms We know we can already say We just have our Determination Sweat and some tears And then you’re ignored Guess how it feels This is personal It’s us and you Maybe you’re listening this time Maybe you do

What you see is what you know In this great and secret show Your eyes went where you will go With eyes closed you’re more alone Keep your eyes open wide When you can Keep your eyes open wide Your eyes are feeding your mind With beauty of day and night The glory and dirt compiled Nothing escapes from your sight Sometimes keep your eyes closed If you can Sometimes keep your eyes closed Close...eyes One should respect and learn the true The true virtue of sight The art of keeping your eyes wide The art of keeping your eyes tightly shut Sometimes you wish you didn’t see Things burnt into memory Things coming back in your dreams Could you choose? There is no choice in your eyes For things you like or despise Maybe that’s where justice dies Blind where eye tells truth from lies One should respect and learn the true The true virtue of sight The art of keeping your eyes wide The art of keeping your eyes tightly shut If you could choose Filter your sight Reflect only What can not hurt Sometimes To avert Your look Makes all the difference in your book Everything You do see Gets burned into your memory One should respect and learn the true The true virtue of sight The art of keeping your eyes wide The art

Since you were born Raised to believe That one day you’ll be the one But time has moved No mother’s kid But from the big cake you get none You’re waiting behind, moving in the wake Of the sharp and the strong You’re waiting for one single chance to move up When some of them goes wrong And time has come To take your chance To score before they can defend You hesitate You realize All you can be is helping hand You find yourself looking at all your dreams Of the glory and the grace Responsibility that comes with all this Is not what you dare to face Your reflection in the mirror Just a sad grin of dream hero And so have you learned where you stand Where you can find the way If you can’t be the one How to get your share of sun... It’s never a shame to know where is the line How far to go, how much to make To understand your own limits and your strength Lift only weight that you can take Respect your achievements Small as they may feel Better be a dreamer Than to be a bad king Beware of self-pity Be proud of yourself Everyone’s unique So don’t try to be someone else And so have you learned where you stand Where you can find the way If you can’t be the one How to get your share of sun... Wipe the tears from your face Try run your own race Look around and take the sum There is sun for everyone

So you still think that we are the same You can’t live with extra weight of shame You think what you did applies on all of us Hiding behind us from the pain And I’m waiting someone to see that we are not to blame And I’m starting to realize that no one would Shielded by structure makes you brave Address your failures in plural mode Suddenly useful, for once not a slave We’re made to swear on the code And I’m waiting someone to see that this is just a charade And I’m starting to realize that you know well You know what to do, what to say While crowd points at us you move away You know where to run, where to hide So you can come back when all this fades Like a snake Sleek as you’ve learned to be Like a snake If you can’t bite you just disappear Beyond all moral fears Like a snake Someone else can always shed the tears Tears are the sign of the weak Nothing emotive should leak It’s not correct to admit that you have failed Failure is a system thing We can’t be right We do not see the wider perspective We didn’t see enough We’d be replaced Sleek as you’ve learned to be Like a snake If you can’t bite you just disappear Beyond all moral fears Like a snake Someone else can always shed the tears And I’m waiting someone to see that this is just a charade And I’m starting to realize that you know well You know what to do, what to say While crowd points at us you move away You know where to run, where to hide So you can come back now Like a snake Sleek as you’ve learned to be Like a snake If you can’t take it you disappear Beyond all moral fears Like a snake Someone else can always grit the teeth

Every minute turns to hour And I can hardly bear to breathe All that is held inside my head Behind my teeth And in this chair I sat for years Suddenly feeling out of space And here I rule my little world Loathing my own face So what has changed? Is it my fault? Why do I feel? I was betrayed and I was sold Hard to believe I was so numb Wreck my plans Bleed them to death by my own hand I am the unmaker of fruits of my own doing I am the destroyer of perspective I had Just hate me For here I weep for second chance I could get Just hate me Just like your own mistakes you failed to accept How could I fail to see the rot? Crumbling the picture of my life Why did I chose not to believe What had to hurt me? Neglected pain does not get weak It slowly bleeds and gains its mass And when you think it’s over you It will tear your ass I know what’s changed It is my fault I have unmade What I, what us, could have become When I shut my eyes I can almost see All that could have been All I can do is to make amends while I can When I shut my eyes I can almost see All that could have been I am the unmaker of fruits of my own doing I am the destroyer of perspective I had Just hate me For here I weep for second chance I could get Just hate me Just like your own mistakes you failed to accept I will repent for I have sinned Against my fate Against my life Remember Nothing is granted if you do not keep it to be

How can you come to me with this again? I thought you’d try to get it back into your hands The greatest help I can give you is none You should regain your self-respect while you have some It’s up to you to make the call It’s only you to walk in your shoes And do not try that pleading look It doesn’t help where you should act Don’t you try to put this upon me I can’t decide whichever part you take Don’t ask questions you don’t want get answered And don’t ask questions only you can answer! If you want life It’s your to take Don’t be afraid No one can be better But no one said It’s a painless gift I’d say you feel Like a fisherman in the desert And if I could How can you ask? To take your life on me? Because it makes you free You are a slave By your own choice With zero dignity Why do you choose to breath? It’s up to you to make the call It’s only you to walk in your shoes And do not try that pleading look It doesn’t help where you should act If you want life It’s your to take Don’t be afraid No one can be better You are worth only what you have achieved! But that presumes you have the will to But no one said It’s a painless gift I’d say you feel Like a fisherman in the desert

I understand the pain you feel When looking back at what has passed, still much too real You’d wish to go back just to see If you can do a thing to change what’s to be You’re not the first nor last to pray That there’s a way to edit past day by day Carved into time stay all our acts Like the flies in the diamond, proof of facts You can’t fix what was not broken You can’t change what came to be You can’t alter words once spoken In your past you’re never free Yesterday’s where your mistakes last Only today you change the future past Just that we can’t change anything we have been through Is how we’ve learnt to swallow concept of the truth But being human means you doubt all what you can Yet there’s a line you shouldn’t dispute, you should learn You can’t fix what was not broken You can’t change what came to be You can’t alter words once spoken In your past you’re never free Yesterday’s where your mistakes last Only today you change the future past

Can you say that all that you see around? Is a world you can live in all happy and proud? Small sources of evil where tears turn to blood Small personal hells without heaven or God What you‘re feeling while you live away Something inside breaks You’d change your ways Soon you will learn that for this hidden war You will need more than what you have been prepared for Fighting the darkness you have to learn its ways All creatures and shadows All their names and shapes What you‘re feeling while you live away Something inside breaks You’d change your ways Fighting the evil of any kind Will change the fighter Will change his mind And as you walk through the haze Your only weapon piercing gaze World is a maze, world is a maze The more you see the more you know The more you feel the less you show It brings you low It all has changed now in your eyes You no more look up to the skies You remain hidden, hidden in the shade Your grip on yourself starts to fade When it all had changed in your eyes You no more look up to the skies Part of you died, part of you died You remain hidden in the shade Your grip on yourself starts to fade You fall to wait, you fall to wait What you‘re feeling while you live away Something inside breaks You’d change your ways Fighting the evil of any kind Will change the fighter Will change his mind

Waiting for evening skies Searching for the vibes and signs Dreaming of sleeping whales Singing the untold tales And if I close my eyes I’m the hurricane, merciless rain and a flood Every time I fall from skies I am the unspoken last silent word of God Riding the rays of light Leashing the hounds of fright Trying what can’t be tried Sleeping with those who died Like it’s the final hour Bleeding out the words of power And if I close my eyes I’m the hurricane, merciless rain and a flood Every time I fall from skies I am the unspoken last silent word of God And the paths I tread Bring me to the end The end I do not dread So tired and spent And I do know that many more Will follow in my steps So the paths I tread Brought me to the end Few last moments to spend Painting with breath on glass Praising all things to pass Keeping the loose ends loose Laughing the doomed can’t choose And if I close my eyes I’m the hurricane, merciless rain and a flood Every time I fall from skies I am the unspoken last silent word of God Close your eyes and swim Waters of the dream Carried away will be My name in the stream

I can feel your silent laughter When you put your bold hands on my fate On my fate Sometimes it doesn’t feel right What my life serves cold onto my plate Onto my plate But if I count on your favor you would leave me If I turn my back on you you’ll do that too You’re the queen for those who win Maker of what could have been Empty promise we can choose You get blamed when we’re to loose I would like to taste your kindness Yet I fear I may become your slave Become your slave I can throw my fate in your face Would you come if my resources gave? Or to my grave Some would kill to feel your grace Some have died of your embrace Some live by your fickle star Some hate you for who you are You’re the queen for those who win Maker of what could have been Empty promise we can choose You get blamed when we’re to loose There’s never any easy way Despite that’s what you try to say: There’s never any easy way ...all you need to do is to pray... to me. And I try not to hear your call I fear that could just be my fall And I try not to hear your call While you keep dice of chance to roll Then again it’s down to myself How much pride can I take from your aid? From your aid Could I stand to look in my face? Claim my life mine, self esteem forfeit All too late But if I count on you favor you would leave me If I turn my back on you you’ll do that too You’re the queen for those who win Maker of what could have been Empty promise we can choose You get blamed when we’re to loose

Your perfection, without sense Your mindless pride of emptiness I don’t accuse you How could I? You gave me myself You gave me life I met an angel; I thought I’d go mad on the sight Obviously human, so distant, painfully bright I felt so sick of how small did I suddenly feel When what I am confronted what I’d possibly be Your perfection, without sense Your mindless pride of emptiness I don’t accuse you How could I? You gave me myself You gave me life I tried to learn, I tried to become more than I was Soon I thought I understood how simple is the cause I don’t regret what I’ve been through I wished to be like you My ignorance and poverty walking hand in hand That’s what I thought restrains me from being better man And everything I got to see I’m more than you could be I always kept your image on my mind If I was lost in desperation you were my light Light lasts as long as the torch keeps to burn Everything’s complicated before you start to learn Learn and experience all that you find Cherish the moment when you realize you were blind Blind enough to ignore the basic truth Grace is not how you look; grace is simply what you do I have become all I thought would bring you close to me So I am here but somehow I don’t like what I see I saw your wings and my desire was born, to fly And I conquered skies just to learn your wings were a lie There is no glory There is no grace Just a gun in my face My heart has ached for something I could never have gained Phantom of light which you have had not knowingly feigned I don’t regret what I’ve been through But why I wished to be like you? Your perfection, without sense Your mindless pride of emptiness For accusations I waste no breath You gave me myself, you gave me death.
