THE RIDE

fallen behind I want to stay there
taste of dirt in my mouth – life’s even sweeter
you count me in, then spit me out
i am cleaning your mess but you’re not around
little lies, I don’t mind
you’ve got my back with your knife
you are disorder, I obey
you’re fucking toxic, that’s okay
so where are you heading? I will follow you
you already got your hands on me
you throw a bait, I always bite
i like to burn my fingers and you’re on fire
come on I’ve got more to lose
take what you need, I keep the blues
I’ve been waiting for the ride
you crave for blood while I run dry

for all the things to come, I’ll be down with you if you drown with me
i will carry all the weight you hoard if you don’t walk away so easily
i can’t stand another day with you, but sure I’ll do
i guess you played me when I bet my stakes on you
trick me once, trick me twice, I won’t say goodbye
getting lost when I’m set loose, I will always come back to you
you grab the hand that reaches out for you,
to drag me down to find our common ground
i was wrong about you and you, you were right that I would be
i know I know, you are a wreck
fate is calling from the dead end
conquering you, would mean to ruin me
i’m still burning for you torching me
you don’t understand, do you?

OFF THE GRID

by all means, leave me be
don’t start to circle ‘round my mind again
i’ve heard it all, in different ways
shudders down my spine, when I hear your name
i’m drying out in your wasteland
you are still jamming my ways
blazing my heart on high voltage
but I am falling off the grid for good
occupied from every side
keep the future on hold for a hopeless vibe
those promises weren’t meant to keep
though I hope you’ll come back when I fall asleep
I’m drying out in your wasteland
you are still jamming my ways
blazing my heart on high voltage
but I am falling off the grid for good

VOIDING
02:14
|
|

the void you attract
a cold breeze ‘round my neck
shivering all disperse to pieces
the wall was never built to stand
a common ground to fight alone
there the bitterness is soaring
just as we left that emptiness
you fell from grace and from believing
caught in a nightmare of awakening
I try to throw back to that fever dream
Steaming our heads into a another set back
Pondering of a future much brighter than that
your voice is still humming - in my head
your fallout is a global threat
still I aim to find
another one of your kind
I am voiding my head from you
my stroke, you’ve been sucking all hope
still I aim to find
another one of your kind

one more day and one more hour
i achieve what I believe but I am a coward
so I stay put in my open head
and hope the storm won’t pass today
breathing fresh air just lengthens the pain
i don’t even know how to walk away
cutting the rope would mean to lose the last grasp
so I hang in there when the noose pulls tight
i can’t deal with any situation
so I shun being out there having one
waiting for the time when timing is right
it already cost me half of my life
finding hope in losing peace
starting a war with my altered reality
i shall outgrow the fears I’ve nurtured since I was young
i’m going through the motions, so you think I’ll get along
i want something else and expect anything happen
but I don’t move and so I still am trapped in that pattern
i know that you need will - to make a way
you need to start walking to find out if your feet will carry
