New Priorities

The bravest left us here to die and I’m walking around this town
Without finding anyone who has ever shared a dream with me
Even though we have planned to live this life free from being cowards
Free from the threat of stopping halfway
The plan has changed for you and you’re laughing out loud at my expectations
You’re laughing out loud!
And it’s just a simple matter of killing our innocence
Which is your great reason? Fear or convenience?
If you’re afraid of walking through these crooked lines
You are all free to leave me behind
I’m used to temporary presences
And I know that you are looking for an easy answer
This won't be the last time
I won’t force you to live for something you don't love
I know the plan has changed
No matter the circumstances, I'm standing where I am
I’d rather take the risk of standing where I am

There's a feeling of repulsion growing on me
I have been seeing many outrageous things that try to violate my passivity
An inoffensive uprising keeps me safe from deeper questioning
My critical thinking, it was violently doped
I'm dying under anesthesia. I'm glad not to be lucid
My death will be slower than I hoped
This world is so unfair and wrong
And I see no incoherence in being just the the way I seem to repudiate
Our moments of distraction are long-lasting and terrifyingly intense
My critical thinking, it was violently doped
I'm dying under anesthesia. I'm glad not to be lucid

Devastating Insecurity

Maybe I could be the one who's generating pointless hatred in your heart
Trying to hide myself behind the comfort of being yet another hostile guy who considers it natural
You don't know exactly what's happening
But we're gonna fight together against all the things that displeases us for some banal reason
Never show your weakness to anyone
It doesn't matter if the message that we're spreading is empty and harmful
Used to disguise fears that don't surrender
Fears will not surrender
They believe there are less agressive ways to change concepts
And I need to get rid of this threat
Hiding myself behind the comfort of being yet another hostile guy who considers it natural
I'm here to stain your personality and wash away the pain
But don't expect me to be sorry if you die in vain
Following my mistaken beliefs
We're gonna fight together
And you don't know exactly why it's happening

Whatever happens we'll be united to prove our strength to this world
Our values are unbreakable
Doesn't that sound beautiful?
I can no longer measure how much we are being inspiring
I have no intention to disappoint someone
But more than ever I feel my actions being weaker than my tongue
And now all my dreams are coming true
Fortune still looking down on you
We're susceptible to seduction
How does it sound?
When the lights of my integrity goes out
I flirt with evil without judgement
Contradictions are all around
And I'm not the only one who's listening to the voices of new opportunities
I have no intention to disappoint someone
But more than ever I feel my actions being weaker than my tongue
And now all my dreams are coming true
Fortune still looking down on you
We're susceptible to seduction
How does it sound?

I Swear I Was

I was on top I swear
My memories will never tell me lies
But things change their places constantly and it's a shame
I was where I was supposed to be
But I've just figured out that everything is over
You're trying to warn me about something
But just to let you know:
No! I don't already know the anguish, the doubts, the pain
People are born to suffer, not me
And I'm not just skin and bones, I'm stronger
I'm stronger than ever
Grabbing all the things that you can't touch
Dancing with all the ghosts you fear the most
Honestly, I feel a bit threatened when awesomeness turns into quick forgetting
But it's just sometimes
You're trying to warn me about something
But just to let you know:
No! I don't already know the anguish, the doubts, the pain
People are born to suffer, not me
And I'm not just skin and bones, I'm stronger than ever
There're no chances left to bring back the past
Now I'm nothing but the dust on their feet
Unrememberable
