Heart of Clay

You wake up one day and realize
so suddenly
the dreams you had in youth were gone
like rotten teeth
There's a place for us to rest
But I know it isn't here
Ain't no time to waste it
No time to wait on your knees
Holy writings on the wall
will mean anything
cause evil hides under the bed
where you sleep
There's a place for us to rest
But I know it isn't here
Ain't no time to waste it
This is your time to break free
go for a wander in some woods far from home
go brave it silently and on your own
Feel like a hermit now
Who instinctively knows where to go
it's time to learn from your mistakes
Mind of stone, heart of clay
by now we've come a long way
Mind of stone, heart of clay
all jigsaws will fall into place
Mind of stone, heart of clay
cause time for change comes while you wait
Mind of stone
So when will you come around
and see?
go for a wander in some woods far from home
go brave it silently and on your own
the path is narrow now
so if you really want to go
go alone

Homecoming

Since I've been away it's been hard
to cope with the feeling
that every time I am back here
still feels like leaving
This city's not what it used to be
barren like there's no memory left
Deepen in the sunny streets where we used to play now there's sorrow
Passing down in their family trees
this heritage follows
turning into this death drive you see
crumbling all hope we thought we had
How can you live here
call this home
And feel like a stranger for so long
How can you live here
When it's all you know
Walking around these old blocks today
I can hear their ravings
So realize it before it's too late
they're not worth saving
this is not the best we can be
crumbling all love we thought we shared
How can you live here
call this home
And feel like a stranger for so long
How can you live here
When it's all you know
How can you live here
All this time
still waiting for some kind of sign
How can you live here
When it's all you know
It took me a while to understand
I was naive but now I can see
You're one of them!
Lately, we've been draining all the water
Trying to flood this town
Or maybe we've been waiting for a fire
That could burn it to the ground
there's a time
to begin
all a friendship can be
but for now, we are done
we are now enemies
no longer seventeen
with a bag full of dreams
now I'm too old to put up
with your old bigotries
So the world that I see
you won't find in those streets
there's no place for beliefs
or delusions of greed
cause this heart of mine has just two settings:
nothing at all or too much
there is no in between
no in between

80s Babies
04:22

we were about to change the world
but something happened along the way
We have lost the will to rant
and stand by every promise made
how were we supposed to know
that we wouldn't have a chance to learn
how not to repeat the same
mistakes of yesterday
we did it once
we did it twice
this is far from over
Daisy
we are the eighties
unwanted babies
that's all we know
Daisy
now our mind is hazy
cause we're old and lazy
there's nowhere to go
All the joy is good as dead
cause nothing here is built to last
There is no way out of this loop
of low incoming and higher debts
All our hopes and dreams are gone
on the screens of our phones
political resentment rising from a click away
we did it once
we did it twice
this is far from over
These are the old times you keep consuming
gathering dust while the mold keeps growing
keen to return to a place to thrive
among the dead ones you feel alive
These are the virtues they took from us
we feel there's nothing left to discuss
we no longer have redeemers
we don't need leaders, we need dreamers
but in the morning you read the news
the same delusion that killed the Jews
hidden in words of another lie
spreading like fire and cutting like knives
So drop your nostalgia, and feel you're alive
Gather your loved ones, get up and fight
Change is not distant, it's here tonight
This is far from over

Lost and Never Found
04:10

I can never tell you how it feels
you have to see it for yourself
but not even to my worst enemies
I would have wished this cursed spell
Longing for what I can't have
While I'm alive
There's spiderwebs
All over me
On your highest shelf
Is where I'll be
These words are lost and never found
So when you read about me
I'm not around
All that's gone and you could never grieve
Will always hold your attention span
until this mold will start to take over your house
Your sighs of love
won't come for me
but my time is now
I can't wait for years
These words are lost and never found
So when you read about me
I'm not around
I know your lights
won't shine on me
you let me die
when I tried to live
These songs are lost and never found
So when you hear about me
I'm not around

Lessons

Lessons are forgotten
While the green turns to gray
But there is no tomorrow
If they're not learned today
it's time to go outside
and leave this concrete room
feel we're still alive
and we're still not doomed
there's no way to know this
even if we try
like when you once asked me
"will we be alright?"
Lessons are forgotten
While the green turns to gray
But there is no tomorrow
If they're not learned today
Like the waving of two lovers
From a distant place
You can still see her sorrow
So it's never too late
it's everywhere around us
In the silent winds
it's in the rising tides
where we used to swim
it's been there all along
Since the ancient times
We didn't want to listen
We were in denial
