An octopus in the sand ______ What is a man in isolation but a sky without a sun? Limited, a miscarriage of fate (a miscarriage of fate) And though everyone feels lonely at the top I have my friends by my side We weren’t meant to be alone We are not islands, we are continents What they call mistakes I call it opportunities to believe The chance to build, to rebuild, to recall We weren’t meant to be all alone The skies will burn yet we stand tall The legions of corruption bring us all to stand in line But we will not give in, together we will persevere And though everyone feels lonely at the top I have my friends by my side We weren’t meant to be alone We are not drops of water, we are oceans We are oceans Endless, invincible, capable of swallowing your hopes (your hopes) Drop the anchor, leave everything behind (everything behind) And burn, every motherfucking trace, That keeps you chained to your burdens I’m just another promise you couldn’t keep (promises) Now show me the way out lead me into the light And every time we say goodbye, Is another chance to start all over again A new chance to start all over again I have my friends by my side I won’t be afraid.

Square-shaped God ________ They believe in everything you say Show me how to do it, they would follow you anywhere You control everything, hypnotizing everyone that steps in front of your shiny face Controlled only by a few, making people believe they own you but you own them You are just an instrument to burn every piece of valuable knowledge To keep our minds numb, preventing the revolution Destroying everything with useless images, stereotypes Fake, everything that surrounds you is fake Everyday a new prophets arises, a new king is crowned Dismembering our society from its roots They try to mold us according to their needs They put man against man to calm their thirst for power They use education and religion, to detach us from everything we own. Controlled only by a few, making believe people they own you but you own them

Wooden hands / Paper heart ______ I know some day you’ll be gone That day is around the corner The wind will take your body away Though your memory will remain, untouchable The clock is ticking away, I can see it in your eyes (in your eyes) The flame is fading away, just like the sea swallows my tears (swallow my tears) Where are you wooden hands? I can still feel the touch of your rusty hands on my face Where are you wooden hands? Missing you has become a constant fear, A fear that grows inside of me, and brings me to my knees And now everything has changed and burns like thousand suns Through skin, flesh and bone Some say is better to embrace the loss Where are you paper heart? I can still feel you amongst the crowd But I refuse to leave everything behind Your heart beating your voice in my mind Calling my name making me smile I hope we can meet again Calling my name making me smile Where are you, paper heart? I can still feel you amongst the crowd You are everything we have Your crystal eyes, your tired voice, make me feel like home once again Hold me tight and don´t let go Where are you wooden hands? Where are you, paper heart? Everywhere I look reminds of you Love without fear and never look back

I’m the enemy _______________ Making my choice My dear horizon What happened with all those dreams and goals that I was fighting for There is no time to take another road Because my dying soul is the only one that burns This is my breaking point There is no time to take another road Bu I refuse to fade away and I will never regret the steps that I have made This is a one way street and there’s no turning back for me this time My feelings dying, my face against the wind Crushing my bones to feel what’s real and what’s not My first reaction is suffering but then my hope goes over the top I realize that I can win this time I refuse to (to fade away) And I will never forget what I’ve learnt I’ve reached a point of wanting to tear everything apart My surroundings have become hostile and it affects my own sanity, my own fucking sanity I’ll find what’s missing no matter what I’ll crush everything that steps on my way Every man has a war inside his head Between what’s good and wrong Between his heart and his mind This war inside my head is against myself I know I can win I cannot be defeated.

Martin rex ________ I don’t care what you think I don’t care what you said I don’t care what we were Your words mean nothing to me, you fucking liar, betrayer I will see you fall, sink in your misery You wouldn’t be missed here not even in hell, there’s no place for you here Sometimes I cannot believe the many things that we once shared if we are so different I don’t need you in my life without you this world seem brighter than ever before (There is no room for you and all of your lies in this place, and we will never forget) Than ever before (oblivion in where you belong, there’s no salvation this time) I don’t care what you think I don’t care what you said I don’t care what we were Your words mean nothing to me, you fucking liar, betrayer Little by little, your memory starts to fade. And it feels so good Sometimes I cannot believe the many things that we once shared if we are so different (so different) You are the aftermath, the reason to devastate my past. You are the aftermath
