Charlatans
A silent shout from deep within A siren in my head keeps calling again I envy you and your clear mind A complete, a righteous persona I have built up too much restlessness In this aeon of universal endlessness In an ocean of coincidence You are the sum of our difference A full-fledged version of ideas An evolution of mankind All I know, all you said Was let me go into the great unknown An open wound A cold, distant bond An open scar, can I forgive myself Forgive myself Stones upon stones piled up

Please turn me up another notch Please tell me I'm not the one you caught Set the world in motion Set the time and place I will witness you become an abulic case I overheard your conversation Have I become God's bleak creation? I overheard your conversation Can I let go of my frustration? Some say that we are so afraid To see the price that we have to pay I never saw what you have seen So, I can't understand The wall that we all crash into Is made of bricks carved out from you The things that we all did before We're sitting on a bleeding ore I try to see through the veil of hate I reach out and clench our fate Set the world in motion Set the hour and place I'm locked into a room, not leaving a single trace Rise up Too many starts and stops Too many reboots Too many lies Step up Make me whole again Make me forget it Make me feel free We're sitting on a bleeding ore And fading It never seems to be enough We're fading We're sitting on a bleeding ore

Dull seconds, minutes and hours Restless, stuck in my mind High up in an ivory tower, looking down on us Who am I? Who am I? A babbling fool High on the smoke I lost my hope I just have to let it go I, my trade, my work, my reflections I, my life, my interests, my imperfections I escape from a narrow place To succeed, I crease my pace I fuel my innermost fear Look inside of me Who am I? Who am I? A truly great pretender I just accept my fate I just have to let it go A king of emptiness The sound of nothingness We are part of something deranged Engaged In the eye of the storm we can see When first we practice, kill, then deceive It's unreal, so unreal

I feel that you are lonely That goes for me too, my love On the surface everything looks fine But I cannot feel anything I feel the essence of me before the crash The fear of all nightmares cuts like a lash I've seen the letters you wrote I've been trying to better myself Somewhere in our emotional labyrinth The answer is written in sky I just know that we are trapped inside I just feel the same No difference I just kill the flame

Reaching after liars Are they searching for the unknown Gilded hands full of lust Searching for the fruits above Can you feel it? Can you sense? The all-encompassing truth Leeches Teaches Others to fail Look down, see the cracks in the ground Why do secrets remain We are so frustrated For the first time is it in vain Dreams of sickness eat me up Let go of my self-respect Do you hear me? Can you see? The all-over dominant haze All that we see just fades away We got thrown away My false sympathies fade away I got thrown away

I'm balancing between love and hate While dealing with my self-doubt Caressing my ego didn't do the trick Putting on a show doesn't mean you rule reality I envy you all You mythological human A son of the sun And a true player of the game I pinned it down That thing that kept me under You, son of the sun With the demeanor of the dead You and me forever We are entwined in the past Chasing fame and fortune But we came in at last Separate me from my mind I envy you all You self-loathing creature A son of the sun And a falsifier of my past You set me up To reveal too much of me Son of a sun But I will never leave you alone All we are All we share We connect Through the sun All we are I wish we were free I wish we were free from each other Separate me

Our lust is futile my love Our failure is here for everyone to see We burned for an instance But failing, doing the overall distance Our glory will fade away I deal with the demons Stretch the timeline too far just to see A moment to seize A time collapsed to be deceased We tried to settle for a future But pressure just built up in my mind My frustration, your frustration My fuel to hate Drama to treat, great depression Drama to treat, false deception All we have to remember, is that time is running out All we have to offer, is a stress-ridden past All that I say, is that we are not the answer All we have to remember is that man is not the sum of all Mistakes Prove that you're divine Turn water into wine

We were just dealing Dealing with own frustration on mass A ten-ton beating From a cold-hearted world They stole the key we needed The key to unlock the truth for all us A senseless feeding Of the ego that we comprise I just don't have the strength I just don't have it anymore We set things in motion But devotion was left out here in the cold A fake song of freedom Was heard around the world I try to separate you From the nemesis hidden inside you A sinful feeling And the chills down my spine Put them on the stage To get slaughtered again Can't believe it I just know that we are shameless Brought up on all visual feelings Fiction did the trick for us But we all missed out on life

In my recent past I saw no reason Our life full of restraints Can you sense it too? The truth laid on parade Why can't you see it? In a corner, fighting back Can you make that choice? Demonize your enemy Blame it all on him Demonize your enemy He owes you everything My soul craves for peace I saw your demons Our loss filled me up Can you sense it too? We reach our final depth We have lost our meaning No plan can fix this hole That widens our gap I felt the sorrow fade away The fear got me to change Without my personal grief I don't know who to keep I saw the walls collapse I saw the past erase Past erased...
I can't say when it happened But it's grown on me A decision had to be made The tipping point was reached But it felt like superficial suicide Committed in agony A lot was lost What could be gained No one could say It always comes back in the end The truth has a tendency to bend Our feelings always seem to overrated themselves A parallel universe created just for us I just know you don't get it It is written all over your face A drama set on stage I realized we were the same And it felt like a supernatural ego High on fumes of rage Deceit and failure hand in hand Oh how we tried Our feelings always seem to overrated themselves A parallel universe created just for us Simple dealings always seem to mesmerize the world No more diamonds to be found in this cold world You're so ambiguous to me, my friend It's so hard to read you
