You broke my silence with one of your questions ‘Is this the way it was meant to be?’ Just a subtle but selfish perception Not enough to feel the pressure Winners and cheaters all share the same table, we learnt this lesson at tender age Then we give and we lose and we waste but don’t give up cause there’s no Savior Far too young not to give life another shot The moon seems like a good place to set my goals Yes, I know there will always be a place for you and me, for eager souls and bright minds They sing their anthem as loud as the ocean for each and for every one of us Then we look for an escape from horror Found today and lost tomorrow I read the signs at the borders of this town I found my way in and out and now these false warnings and cautions and bans, they cause no fear they’re just inviting Sometimes we have no time to understand our own lives; we’re often left without a hand I know we’re used to find them rough and hard; Those shoulders, that before were a place to cry on

Phoenix Inc. 03:52
I can remember times I felt stable and whenever I would tremble (could lean on you, the one I knew) But now it feels like twice a lifetime and as distant as the skyline (These words you said I won’t forget) I don’t think that this will ever go back to where we felt everything was fine but I know the place where everything goes is just where lies finally fall apart Once you said we would not make it without your help but you, you were never right and you pushed and tried but managed to prove our time together belongs to past Miles away, my eyes remained open as we crossed the rain While running from the sunsets already missed and those we’ll miss I will try to keep them forever alive Streets tonight are looking dark and holding memories out of sight and you won’t shine again to light ahead but still we have our will and smile again, take it all out on yourself I lost my bearings to find a meaning to this fear and endless screaming (I won’t blame you, we all went through) For all I know you’ve got eyes that fancy all but they get fed up quickly (Replace what’s used with something new)
3.
You hold on to what I belong to but you don’t know a thing about shooting high or lessons I can’t bring myself to teach you The future is only as bright as you are so pray for decent memories I’d lend you some but who would tell you stories to remember? I write more lies than you could ever tell I can smile like I care No matter how many times you try I’ll always leave you outside to keep myself from being a better man My suitcase was filled with hopes of good will that I just sold but you will never know (and I can’t get them back) The streets know every name except mine Every word from someone else All these silver medals are not really worth a mention I’ll be counting sheep and debts forever Still you will find me awake You used to love the way I said “I want to be remembered”
4.
Risking all that I have left on the days I trust myself Pretending that I can still feel Tomorrow turns into next year as their eyes leave me for dead All you have is all I fear Watch me leave but don’t let me go I am not the one that you can count on Hate me now but don’t take me home ‘cause home is where the end is and I’m still running At my worst I still believe Lost and tired but wide awake I should learn from your mistakes Time away is time well spent Take care of my enemies I’ll come back and still defy
5.
Lights are way too bright here Let me be somebody else Your smiles are so wide they scare me Please make sure I can forget them Ever-changing deadlines just delay my misery Come around and show me how to pack my fate and throw it to the wolves When no one looks I give up everything Bright-eyed and done or something in between And you know well that my nights are never over and my thoughts are made of gold Dreams on replay while my words are getting older I wish I could run away from this forever Whole weeks watching reruns of the life I never had While I’m planning things I’ll never do with friends I’ve made and left behind We all run in circles but at least I know the truth It seems like no one ever told you that absolutely everything is wrong Yes, I know well That my promises are worthless But I’m here to make some more…
6.
I always knew I could have had it all but instead I smashed it all up These things are usual – I can’t forget, I can’t regret, for damn’s sake Shame is on you but it includes me Taking the whole blame has never been an easy thing but you must admit you’re sensitive to this mess A better wind will blow for us, that wind will blow away the pain, away again Hold me tight tonight ‘cause it’s our last Was your intention to light the fire or put it out? If no one won, what did the fight become? Misinformation, the only thing shared all along I didn’t use to say words that had a stronger meaning, to keep it up I yelled the soft ones and everything, for years to come, drowned in the sea Shame is on us and that includes you We saw it coming, it’s no surprise Another story that meets the end so call it all a day You were punishment and glory Sharp and then blurry I was never right
7.
The night sky paints our shapes in black – we become the darkness, and silence breathes over your eyes and mine Kingdom of touch – dim the lights that show the end of the corridor For the first time keep your eyes open wide before leaping through the void Hanging on to words… You’re always asking ‘why’ and I’m showing you ‘how’… Gods are sending thunderbolts and lightning over us Are we the ones to ignore what’s plain wrong and erase ties from another age we just forgot My past has always been so sharp that it cut trough future Not even that can change the way I’m feeling now Taking the right step is always uncertain when you have a choice, Taking the wrong one is certainly done by banning your own voice
8.
Clouds witness my every step, they guide me through this city but hide the stars This is the best and worse I’ve ever been while staying the same Out of touch but I know enough I still make you smile when I try Out of luck but I charmed them all I wanna feel the weight of the lights Hearts glowing in the dark are all I really want to see again before it’s all over Ready at times – Forgotten most of the time Running away – Without a second to breathe We go to war just so we can have something to talk about when they dance I want to make it out alive with mind and friendships intact Out of luck but I’m charmed enough Wondering what life should be made of I can choose what they can’t control Out of touch but I know it all Glory days when we were just like lions at play always doing it for the best We had it every time we believed We shiver and laugh in the same breathe Beaten by years but we’ve cheated life for a while, so we’ll keep trying for years ahead

Nothing ever shines when there’s no room to breathe and no one but me You can hold the flame or be followed by evidence and your eyes never lie Take some time and erase all your memories – bury me secretly I won’t carry on – I guess there’s a way to go but we’re just not the same How could I expect everyone to believe that I had the key? I never pray, I don’t pray but I wish that my eyes could lie
10.
Let them know if I make it through the summer I’ll go back to being me, but until then tell them to stop asking all these questions I don’t want to remind them but I have to ‘cause they keep me on their list and I don’t remember saying ‘this could be something special’ I just want to make it home to see the last leaf touch the ground Kings and princes spend their time watching my whole life fall apart Carry the torch and lead the way I will reach you, somehow don’t let them know where we hide from it all Sing me the last line Keep my words and my name in your mind I’m still around but I won’t be for long Let it out, you’ve been keeping it for ages and I knew it all along You were once one of the best but I really think you should leave Once again I am reading the same pages to the ones who never dream I am careful and considerate but they don’t seem to believe
11.
When I try my best to get through wind and high waters and the air I breathe burns like a glowing ember in my lungs I have always tried to rise to every occasion When the trial’s set well I just don’t ever seem to have enough Anything goes because everything is passing and everything they want is seeing action on their screens A time will come when we’ll beat the odds together All I have for now is just a front row seat at a funeral I can hear their words they made my hair stand on end Flowing flawlessly through their mouth without an eyeblink at all A path that never ends is taking me to their hands I will find my way out, their fingers I’ll bend one by one So as I hide from their words this couldn’t just get any worse but I keep smiling on my own
