Is It Hard 04:48
Is it hard to follow? When your mood goes down Birds of freedom fly higher Can you get so high? You cannot deny You get used to cry, When your heart looks dry You wait a rain from high… to feel… Dream while you can Fight back now, Don’t let them make you cry… Do you really know? If anyone worthy is near, Is it hard to follow? Leave behind your fear? You cannot believe it Is it hard to say? Looking for salvation Connection is the way…to feel… Dream while you can Fight back now, Don’t let them make you cry, Just try to dream Don’t let them make you cry… Don’t let them make you cry … They make you kneel, But just believe, That you can stand, It’s in your hand to go on and on…

You say the wounds of past are deep You have nothing more to give to me, You say there’s a dead man walking in your heart There is nothing that can bring you back to me… Why did you make a cell for your fears? What did I do that’s wrong for you? Why do you walk in the empty streets of tears? Between you and me You gave me faithless promises Lying on the sand of a dry stream, You gave us a wicked end without a chance You walked away leaving behind only a stolen dream… Why did you make a cell for your fears? What did I do that’s wrong for you? Why are you feeling guilty now? Now, that you walk in the empty streets of tears… Between you and me (Empty feelings, empty hearts, We were meant to be apart, Sorrow loving, abstract art, Bridges fallen from the start.) Between you and me

LA Queen 03:37
Born to blossom, born with no regrets People kill themselves for your duets Shake em make em bow to your divine Quench your thirst with an expensive wine The power of the moon Get’s big so fuckin’ soon It creates typhoons Inspires some badass tunes… like this girl… Bought a smile to match your brand new lips Gently place your hands upon your hips You’re an angel waiting to evolve You’re a puzzle that has to be solved The power of the moon Get’s big so fuckin’ soon It creates typhoons Inspires some badass tunes… like this girl… The power of the moon Get’s big so fuckin’ soon It creates typhoons Inspires some badass tunes… Girl you burst like fire Generate desire You shine like a gem Go and claim your stem Feel it grow inside Every man in sight Toss your hair. They’ll die Spread your legs and fly

You Saved Me 04:44
You heard me talking more about the wind Than you and me, You saw me travel in the sorrow land, While you stood there alone… You saved me, I was lost and You saved me… I was the one, who made you suffer, I want to give your laughter back And make you shine again, I was the wind that brings a stormy cloud, I want to be the earth, the steady ground For you, to walk again You watched me losing hope, forgetting you, But in my heart, I only wanted you… Now I take it all over the start, I will never stop to run for you… You saved me, I was blind and You saved me… I was the one, who made you suffer, I want to give your laughter back And make you shine again, I was the wind that brings a stormy cloud, I want to be the earth, the steady ground For you, to walk again Please, hold on! Please, light on… I was the one, who made you suffer, I want to give your laughter back And make you shine again, I was the wind that brings a stormy cloud, I want to be the earth, the steady ground For you, to walk again You saved me, I was lost and You saved me…

Lament 04:44
“For all my life I believed That all those things I was doing Were for the best of me, And I was right, but the thing is you see, That all those things I was doing, Well I was doing them the wrong way….” Outside is dark Like my soul black And I’m feeling down I hear a bark I know I’m stuck In this filthy town I hear a scream Somebody’s in I don’t give a damn I had a dream Now it just seems I’m a scum I wanna go away Don’t wanna be their prey I’m just a boy that grew up I’m a man that fucked up But ok Don’t even know my name Sometimes it’s hard, but hey I’m gonna win or I’ll die I will fight for this lie That’s my game… Open my door Smile like a pro That is just a start Act like a dork Pull out my cork Baby this is my art Having a girl Secrets unfurled This is how I score Casting my spell Welcome to hell Now encore I wanna go away Don’t wanna be their prey I’m just a boy that grew up I’m a man that fucked up But ok Don’t even know my name Sometimes it’s hard, but hey I’m gonna win or I’ll die I will fight for this lie That’s my game… I wanna go away Don’t wanna be their prey I’m just a boy that grew up I’m a man that fucked up But ok Don’t even know my name Sometimes it’s hard, but hey I’m gonna win or I’ll die I will fight for this lie That’s my game… Do you wanna play?

You think my eyes are empty But they see the truth You say that I’m crazy But I have the proof… of your lies Get out of my head, get out Those snakes must be death, I shout I know I’m crazy now I don’t care I just sing I look at your true face And I’m so afraid In darkness I feel safe Now I’d like to fade... in my bed Get out of my head, get out Those snakes must be death, I shout I know I’m crazy now I don’t care I just sing Get me out of this skin, it’s polluted The bug that crawled in, I puked it You’re an animal; you’re here to eat me Please help me To sing my song La la la la… Please help me, please help me To sing my song Please help me, please help me To sing my song

Today 04:24
Into the heart of the night Something screaming inside; “Run away don’t look behind. There are two roads ahead, Shouldn’t buy what they sell, Wake up, don’t you lie in bed…” I saw the news but I can’t believe, All those children cry, flames burn the sky, No one is close to me anymore No one is yelling anymore… I don’t know what to feel, I only need to believe, I don’t know how to look Over the skies, into your eyes There is a train in the sky Waiting just for a try, But you close the door behind. Stay inside to confirm There’s no time for a dream, Is it really what you seem… to be? I saw the news but I can’t believe, All those children cry, flames burn the sky, No one is close to me anymore No one is yelling anymore… I don’t know what to feel, I only need to believe, I don’t know how to look Over the skies, into your eyes Today, life can’t give a sign of love…
8.
Try this out, try to shout, Behind this cloud, shine enough, Bring it out… Without a word now, But within a glimpse, You place your lips around her lips… You watch her leave then you follow Every fallen leaf she left behind for you, Why do you, why do you quit, why do you quit? Just try to win her trust once more, tonight… In a love affair, you need to care Of every lonely step she takes for you, Don’t bleed her heart… Hold her near, you should clear up The mystery, to conquer fear… You watch her leave then you follow Every fallen leaf she left behind for you, Why do you, why do you quit, why do you quit? Just try to win her trust once more, tonight… I know this fear; this fear that messes every part of you Always one step behind from what you feel you have to do Follow your dream; your dream is her you know you can’t deny it It’s always hard but you know very well you have to try it You watch her leave then you follow Every fallen leaf she left behind for you, Why do you, why do you quit, why do you quit? Just try to win her trust once more, tonight… Tonight, she shines for you…

Power 03:36
Power Just Take Control, Power Under My Orders Power Don’t think, don’t cross the borders NO, NO, NO, NO… Power I live you Die, Power You never try, Power You kneel and pray for more More, More, More… Why do you follow up their way? Power You take a Gun, Power You pull the trigger Power For that you’re killing love Love, love, love…. Power You’ll be the President Power You’ll be the Minister But I’m More than a citizen, The more you get the less you help… Why do you follow up their way? Why do you follow up their way? I won’t dive into your mud, I’ll go up without being dirty, I won’t hide behind a mask I’ll reveal your filth, don’t threat me… Oh, Oh, Oh, Why do you follow up their way? Oh, Oh, Oh, Why do you follow up their way? Oh, Oh, Oh, Why do you follow up their way? Power Just take a Gun!

Find You 03:36
I think I know where to find you, I know what it’s true, I fell down like a blind star, I woke up next you… I was tired of the no sense, I used to walk on the sand, But I met all your beauty I met a peaceful land… Oh My Soul, I leave a sign for you, Dream for me, I love you… I think I know where to find you, High up to the sun, I saw you dance on the moon land, Waving your hand… Show me how to go far, Spread the light into you, Hard way is the short way, When I believe in you…. Oh My Soul, I leave a sign for you, Dream for me, I love you… Sing to me love, I need to feel your voice, Sing to me love, we have to rejoice… Oh My Soul, I leave a sign for you, Dream for me … Oh My Soul, I leave a sign for you, Dream for me, I love you…

about

Their sound is an interesting blend of rhythmic and ambient delays, with powerful rhythm & bass sections and melodic vocals with strong dynamics. Their lyrics describe emotions evoked by personal experiences and social issues.

Mind Departure:
The mental state where one is free from all the rules society imposed. We think out of the box, we break the laws of logic and build our own truth, our own ethics, our own world…
