01. Living Not Alive - Lyrics:

Now I know why, you couldn't breathe
Locked in a life that you can't leave
Now I know why you couldn't heal
Stuck in a world that you can't feel

In silence you are fading
Crumbling and breaking
Said that you're mistaken
But you're numb to what you need
Can someone rip you open?
And break what has been broken?
Before there's nothing left to bleed

You drift into the darkest skies
I can see the life leave your eyes
It's buried beneath your crooked grin
It's fighting to fuel the fire again
How to lose your hypnotize
Drowning in the taste of your lies
The star that would shine, now it dies within
You're lost in the life that you're living in

And I can see you're living
But you're not alive

The scars you're creating
Smiling and Faking
When will you awaken,
You succumb to the disease
Like a whisper in the weather
Nothing lasts forever

Now I know why, you couldn't breathe
You're locked in a life that you can't leave
Now I know why you couldn't heal
You're stuck in a world that you can't feel

You drift into the darkest skies
I can see the life leave your eyes
It's buried beneath your crooked grin
It's fighting to fuel the fire again
How to lose your hypnotize
Drowning in the taste of your lies
The star that would shine, now it dies within
You're lost in the life that you're living in

And I can see you're living
But you're not alive
But you're not alive

(You're not living!)

You drift into the darkest skies
I can see the life leave your eyes
It's buried beneath your crooked grin
It's fighting to fuel the fire again
How to lose your hypnotize
Drowning in the taste of your lies
The star that would shine, now it dies within
You're lost in the life that you're living in

And I can see you're living (Living!)
But you're not alive (Living!)
But you're not alive

02. Save Yourself - Lyrics:

Here comes the rain again, it's rolling in
Until it's pouring in your head
Just when you had thought you gained control
On solid ground you stand, it turns to sand
And swallows you again
Just when you finally thought you had it all

You must burn like the sun
Not the star that's fallen
You must turn from the gun
So you can save yourself

Save yourself, yourself from you
'Cause you're never enough for you
Save yourself, yourself from you
'Cause you're never enough for you

You're just an angel with a broken wing
But you will fly again
The devil always comes to test us all

You must burn like the sun
Not the star that's fallen
You must turn from the gun
So you can save yourself

Save yourself, yourself from you
'Cause you're never enough for you
Save yourself, yourself from you
'Cause you're never enough for you

And you'll find yourself confused
'Cause your mind has been abused
From inside you'll have to choose
So you might as well

Save yourself, yourself from you
'Cause you're never enough for you
Save yourself, yourself from you
'Cause you're never enough for you

Here comes the rain again for you
Here comes the rain again
(So save yourself)

03. Embrace The Day - Lyrics:

There's no evolution
When the truth's what we avoid
There's no revolution
Only destroy, rebuild, destroy
We all point and blame the other side
We all fan the flame of the divide

Let's let blindness save us
Help us to see past the surface
Let's reverse this
Face the fire before it burns any higher
We must change this life
Embrace the day
We must bring this to an end
Embrace the day

Evading the illusion
Contained, controlled, conformed
Around we're bound, the cycle circling
Over and over and over and over and over again
Over and over again

Let's let blindness save us
Help us to see past the surface
Let's reverse this
Face the fire before it burns any higher
We must change this life
Embrace the day
We must bring this to an end
Embrace the day

We must stop this cycle we're in
We must stop this cycle we're in
We must stop this cycle we're in
We must stop this cycle we're in
We must stop this cycle we're in
We must stop this cycle we're in

Let's let blindness save us
Help us to see past the surface
Let's reverse this
Face the fire before it burns any higher
We must change this life
Embrace the day
We must bring this to an end
Embrace the day
We must bring this to an end
Embrace the day
Bring this cycle to an end
Embrace the day
Bring this cycle to an end

04. City Of The Sun - Lyrics:

The coldest nights are now appearing
Followed by all I'm fearing
With bated breath my tears are pouring from my eyes
Few moments left but I'm not ready to say goodbye

After life I can see it nearing
My loves life it is disappearing
My only saving grace is I'll see you again
Until that day I know that

I will be waiting, suffocating through it all
My world's been ripped away
Now I'm counting down the days
I will be waiting, fight till I'm fading through it all
My world's been ripped away
But there will come a day when

I'll see you in the city of the sun
Of the sun

Watched the light in your eyes leaving
Helpless I couldn't start the healing
Prayed everyday before you finally went away
Now all that's left is just a broken shell of me
Starless skies is all I'm seeing
Haunted by this empty feeling
My only saving grace is I'll see you again
Until that day I know that

I will be waiting, suffocating through it all
My world's been ripped away
Now I'm counting down the days
I will be waiting, fight till I'm fading through it all
My world's been ripped away
But there will come a day when

I'll see you in the city of the sun
Of the sun
I will see the innocence in your eyes again
Just hold on
I'll die to see the innocence in your eyes again
Just hold on

I'll see you in the city
I'll see you in the city
In the city of the sun
I'll see you in the city
In the city of the sun
I'll see you in the city (I'll see you again)
In the city of the sun
I will see the innocence in your eyes again
In the city of the sun
I'll see you in the city (I'll see you again)
In the city of the sun
I'll see you in the city of the sun
Of the sun
I'll die to see the innocence in your eyes again
Just hold on

05. Man Into Machine - Lyrics:

We all log into our device
In a land disguised, we're synchronized

But I, I've had enough of this
Satellites, it preys with our life
I feel the price we'll pay

We've lost ourselves
We've lost ourselves
Why have we become
So inhuman

Now and then, I've been hanging by a string
I watch the world change from man into machine
Man into machine
Man into machine
Zeros, ones, is that all we will become?
An empty shell of what was human
Man into machine
Man into machine
We have become so inhuman

Flies will taste our loss
Before we turn to dust
From this chaos
Of emptiness that fills our lungs

Now and then, I've been hanging by a string
I watch the world change from man into machine
Man into machine
Man into machine
Zeros, ones, is that all we will become?
An empty shell of what was human
Man into machine
Man into machine
We have become so inhuman

We have become so inhuman
(So inhuman!)
We have become so inhuman

Now and then, I've been hanging by a string
I watch the world change from man into machine
Man into machine
Man into machine
Zeros, ones, is that all we will become?
An empty shell of what was human
Man into machine
Man into machine
We have become so inhuman
We've lost our souls
We've lost our souls

06. Last Regret - Lyrics:

All the words you said to me
Guess I was not listening
You drew the picture in the frame
But I was not focusing

You say
That I'll always be the same
Tell me
Can you tell me?

Can I get one more try
One more chance to rewind
Cause I can't forget
My last regret

All I wish is to find
Nothing left to unwind
Cause I can't forget
My last regret

The closer that you come to me
The further that I push away
Voices circle in my brain
As I slowly go insane

You say
That I'll always be the same
Tell me
Can you tell me?

Can I get one more try
One more chance to rewind
Cause I can't forget
My last regret

All I wish is to find
Nothing left to unwind
Cause I can't forget
My last regret, my last regret

I can't forget, my last regret
I can't forget, my last regret
I can't forget, my last regret

Can I get one more try
One more chance to rewind
Cause I can't forget
My last regret

All I wish is to find
Nothing left to unwind
Cause I can't forget
My last regret

I can't forget, my last regret
I can't forget, my last regret
I can't forget, my last regret

07. Awaken - Lyrics:

Who lets you in
Under my skin
Silence the ones consuming
All we've given

Finally my eyes awaken

It's like the truth you're chasing
This life keeps overtaking
It's like the use is fading
A world where we create it

I close my eyes
(Embracing my awakening)
I'm paralyzed
(Embracing my awaken)

When do you end
When I begin
Finding the life
That you've hiding within

Finally my eyes awaken

It's like the truth you're chasing
This life keeps overtaking
It's like the use is fading
A world where we create it

I close my eyes
(Embracing my awakening)
I'm paralyzed
(Embracing my awaken, yeah)

I cannot move................

It's like the truth you're chasing
This life keeps overtaking
It's like the use is fading
A world where we create it

I close my eyes
(Embracing my awakening)
I'm paralyzed
(Embracing my awakening)
I close my eyes
(Embracing my awakening)
I'm paralyzed
(Embracing my awaken, yeah)

08. Letting Go - Lyrics:

Enter yourself where the thoughts that you dwell
I'm embracing it still but I'm lacking the will
Is this heaven or hell?
Well, I can't really tell
When will we finally get all that we have dreamed?

Oh!
Is the time letting go of you?
Is the time letting go?

You're facing the well and you're craving it still
Now the clock that yields is now striking the 12
Is this heaven or hell?
Well I can't really tell
When will we finally get all that we have dreamed?

Oh!
Is the time letting go of you?
Is the time letting go of you?

Broken down, so confused
Once again, looking down, onto you
Once again, broken down, so confused
Once again, broken down, onto you

Oh!
Is the time letting go of you?
Is the time letting go of you?
Of you

09. Epic - Lyrics:
[Featuring: Amalien]
[Originally by Linkin Park]

Is it, what is it?
Is it, what is it?
Is it!

Can you feel it, see it, hear it today
If you can't then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it cause it happens too fast
And it feels so good it's like walking on glass

It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
It's so sick man it's outta sight
You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
But it makes no difference cause knocks you off your feet

You want it all but you can't have it
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's in your face but you can't grab it
Yeah, yeah, yeah

It's cryin', bleedin', lying on the floor
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
You've got to share it so you dare it
Then you bare it and you tear it!

You want it all but you can't have it
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's in your face but you can't grab it
Yeah, yeah, yeah

It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
It's sad, it happened and it's a shame!

You want it all but you can't have it
(It's a shame) It's a shame
It's in your face but you can't grab it
(It's a shame) But you can't grab it

It's it, what is it?
It's it, what is it?
It's it, what is it?
It's it!

You want it all but you can't have it
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's in your face but you can't grab it
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You want it all but you can't have it
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's in your face but you can't grab it
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

It's it, what is it?
It's it, what is it?
It's it, what is it?
It's it!

10. Numb - Lyrics:
[Acoustic] [Originally by Linkin Park]

I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
Every step that I take is another mistake to you

I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

Can't you see that you're smothering me
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control?
'Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
And every second I waste is more than I can take

I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you

I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

I've become so numb
(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)
I've become so numb
(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)

11. Save Yourself - Lyrics:
[Acoustic]

Here comes the rain again, it's rolling in
Until it's pouring in your head
Just when you had thought you gained control
On solid ground you stand, it turns to sand
And swallows you again
Just when you finally thought you had it all

You must burn like the sun
Not the star that's fallen
You must turn from the gun
So you can save yourself

Save yourself, yourself from you
'Cause you're never enough for you
Save yourself, yourself from you
'Cause you're never enough for you

You're just an angel with a broken wing
But you will fly again
The devil always comes to test us all

You must burn like the sun
Not the star that's fallen
You must turn from the gun
So you can save yourself

Save yourself, yourself from you
'Cause you're never enough for you
Save yourself, yourself from you
'Cause you're never enough for you

And you'll find yourself confused
'Cause your mind has been abused
From inside you'll have to choose
So you might as well

Save yourself, yourself from you
'Cause you're never enough for you
Save yourself, yourself from you
'Cause you're never enough for you

Here comes the rain again for you
Here comes the rain again
(So save yourself)

Just hold on

13. Living Not Alive - Lyrics:
[Acoustic]

Now I know why, you couldn't breathe
Locked in a life that you can't leave
Now I know why you couldn't heal
Stuck in a world that you can't feel

In silence you are fading
Crumbling and breaking
Said that you're mistaken
But you're numb to what you need
Can someone rip you open?
And break what has been broken?
Before there's nothing left to bleed

You drift into the darkest skies
I can see the life leave your eyes
It's buried beneath your crooked grin
It's fighting to fuel the fire again
How to lose your hypnotize
Drowning in the taste of your lies
The star that would shine, now it dies within
You're lost in the life that you're living in

And I can see you're living
But you're not alive

The scars you're creating
Smiling and Faking
When will you awaken,
You succumb to the disease
Like a whisper in the weather
Nothing lasts forever

Now I know why, you couldn't breathe
You're locked in a life that you can't leave
Now I know why you couldn't heal
You're stuck in a world that you can't feel

You drift into the darkest skies
I can see the life leave your eyes
It's buried beneath your crooked grin
It's fighting to fuel the fire again
How to lose your hypnotize
Drowning in the taste of your lies
The star that would shine, now it dies within
You're lost in the life that you're living in

And I can see you're living
But you're not alive
But you're not alive

(You're not living!)

You drift into the darkest skies
I can see the life leave your eyes
It's buried beneath your crooked grin
It's fighting to fuel the fire again
How to lose your hypnotize
Drowning in the taste of your lies
The star that would shine, now it dies within
You're lost in the life that you're living in

And I can see you're living (Living!)
But you're not alive (Living!)
But you're not alive

18. Last Regret - Lyrics:
[Acoustic]

All the words you said to me
Guess I was not listening
You drew the picture in the frame
But I was not focusing

You say
That I'll always be the same
Tell me
Can you tell me?

Can I get one more try
One more chance to rewind
Cause I can't forget
My last regret

All I wish is to find
Nothing left to unwind
Cause I can't forget
My last regret

The closer that you come to me
The further that I push away
Voices circle in my brain
As I slowly go insane

You say
That I'll always be the same
Tell me
Can you tell me?

Can I get one more try
One more chance to rewind
Cause I can't forget
My last regret

All I wish is to find
Nothing left to unwind
Cause I can't forget
My last regret, my last regret

I can't forget, my last regret
I can't forget, my last regret
I can't forget, my last regret

Can I get one more try
One more chance to rewind
Cause I can't forget
My last regret

All I wish is to find
Nothing left to unwind
Cause I can't forget
My last regret

I can't forget, my last regret
I can't forget, my last regret
I can't forget, my last regret
