The Long Pause

A morning coffee with Ms. Routine
Making my day much more dependent
I see you're a little introverted but in a bad way
I see you're a little distant these days
Silence controls what I can't confront
And I can't control what silence confronts
Silence controls what I can't afford
I cannot comprehend this whole institution
Of getting fucked in the ass for cash
Mondays suck and so does your job
I know you'd wish
To be outside and feel alive just for a bit
Let the sun caress your cracked and weathered skin
Time to let go
Take away my joy to find the time to realise this is pointless
Do you really think your daily plan represents your mental compass?
Am I going crazy? Are they all too lazy
Τo just understand that this is a joke?
Am I going crazy? Packing it up and going to the sea
Am I still so crazy? I think that I am going crazy
I give up
Am I growing lazy? I'm stepping out of the game
A renegade. The rhythm freak without a peak
Get me out of this equation
I do not belong with all the rest
Find the problem just to feel smart
Αnd now drown inside your malcontent
And I succumbed to it at last
I saw myself in that hourglass
At least I did my best to be honest and true
You see when you get distracted
Υou never really have the time to think of it
Ms. Routine I beg you can you keep everything the way it is?
Changing perspectives, climbing the ladder
Everything you'll know, a gun to your brain
A morning coffee with your self esteem
(Get fucking down!)
The lost and found seem so dependent, so dependent
The unpredicted that soothes my whole being
(Now get up!)
Zero patience for their power game
I know you're in there somewhere
You've let your body become the prison of your mind
Was it worth it again?
Now that you buried the answers you hoped to find
Ashes. Gold. A memory gone
I can't believe you refused to go on
Was it all a story untold?
Cause I don't like telling your story anymore
I know you're in there somewhere
I know you're in there, I know you're in there
Tell me honestly friend
Can you wake the fuck up?
Just wake up, just wake up!

Isn't it fun now looking so empty
Dragged down by forces you don't seem to understand
Forever bound to taking my chances
Filling the gap between me and the sun
Waste all of your souls in envy
As I'm falling down to see the face of my mistakes
You've got to break through to get me
I see you standing quivering in distress
I've come to terms with what makes me simple
Adjusting what I believe with what I see
I'll keep resisting!
I'll keep resisting!
Isn't it fun looking so empty
So, do you ever wonder why everybody's hollow
Slipping through the pavement cracks, greeting you so cold
Thought I got out and realised why everybody's hollow
Trapped inside their self made maze, they're digitally followed
I'll keep resisting!
Three days to fill my nights, three nights to fill my days
Our paths have been crossed in our different ways
Forgetting the past escaping it all, we reach day four
Caressed by the big hand, I alienate everything that is different
I alienate, I alienate
Get me away from all this sadness
Take me somewhere to find the answers
Take me away from all this madness
Take me to a place where I can find and hold the truth

Spreading rumours across the room
Perpetuating violence in the circle of doom
Why do you bother? I see you stone cold
A higher ground for you to see
Just so you can only be misinformed again
Chosen to spread truth, but instead lies till the end
Mr. S is a snake merchant
Mr. S sells too much cocaine
Mr. S is not so brave
Mr. S must learn to behave
Spreading rumours across the room
Perpetuating malice in the circle of doom
Why do you bother? I see you stone cold
A higher ground for you to see
Just so you can only be misinformed again
Chosen to spread truth, but instead lies till the end
Mr. S is a snake merchant
Mr. S sells too much cocaine
Mr. S is not so brave
Mr. S must learn to behave
Mr. S why won't you leave me?
I'm tired of all this mess
You said that everything was gonna be okay
But!
Mr. S is (what?) a snake merchant
Mr. S sells (still!) too much cocaine
Mr. S is not so brave
Mr. S must (still!) learn to behave
Pain with regret, insensitivity
Consequence of your name and your authority
Starvation, hunger and toys on a shelf
Something doesn't add up well
Lust with neglect and negativity
Allegations of your fake conformity
What's going on behind the scenes?
Truth be told you won't be missed
Fuck you Mr. S!

I've lost the feeling and I wouldn't say that I'm exactly healing
You ignored the facts and turned away when you were really needed
If you pay attention to bullshits that they bring forth
Then the debris looks pretty down the ocean floor
A virus yourself, polluting the soil with your doubt
Chaos! I find myself deeper (than before)
The clock seems to be running so fast (to change)
So, fuck you. Spreading the selfishness fever
You've come too far to realise that you've taken the wrong turn from the start
Do it!
Burn down the media
Before we reach the point of no return
You'll never be free in this age of hysteria
Burn down the media
Before we reach the point of no return
In this age of hysteria
Subconsciously feeding the monster of politics
I can't even begin to explain what this is
Condemned to listen to the masked madman
like he simply thinks he knows exactly what I am
And when madness finally arrives,
it's displayed as reason for as long as it thrives
Burpa burpa burpa, it's as simple as that
I thought I could defeat you,
but you seem to survive through the ideas in their minds
Pick a side and get in line
Pick a side and get in line
I hope that someday reason will crawl
Pick a side and get in line
Pick a side and get in line
Into your little non sensical mind
I wanna feel this, the rising sequence
Progressing in my heart and urging me to shout
I wanna feel this, the rising sequence
Progressing in my heart and urging me to
Burn down the media (in this age of hysteria)
Cause I love the media (in this age of hysteria)
Burn down the media in this age of hysteria
I'm falling to pieces, the empty ahead
Now I'd rather be free from this misery
I’m falling to pieces, the empty ahead
Now is this what you seek from this scenery?
Let's starve this monster to it's death
The only reason is your health
Since you've been prisoned in yourself
Expressing digital distress
Burn down the media
Burn down the media
Burn down the media
I'm falling to pieces, the empty ahead
Now I'd rather be free from this misery
I'm falling to pieces, the empty ahead

What if I don't listen, will you force me to?
Dreaming about the times that you didn't have that glue
Your mind is fucking small,
it can't fit the concept
of leaving your ego aside for a while
Cutting out communication
Your mind is so small, it cannot fit any concept
Guiding the way you're taking me to a shitplace
that's filled with your decay
And leading me astray when we reach our destination
so you can be king for a day
Your mind is so small, it can't fit the concept
of leaving your ego aside for a while
You are the reason our average level of IQ
is dropping so low every time
You manifest in places you make sure
that no one can see what you planned
Forever and a day I hope that day never comes
Cause I will watch you see that you don't belong here
Hello Misinformation, the nurse is knocking on my door
And I'm waiting to feel much better than before

I wear the clothes that are comfortable to my body,
not what's comfortable to their eyes
I pay the price for my mistakes,
so I can be the one to realize what I'm doing with my life
Maybe be a thinker, not copy paste what they put in my head
Are you feeling confused?
Are your morals misused? Yeah!
Can I just get your humble attention?
If you don't like the journey then you wont like the destination
The out-of-tunity of this community
The dimension that drives me completely insane
Better to have a state of mind and find a steady self
than believing in a state of society and having an empty head
I beg to differ in this world that I'm always to blame
The dimension that drives me completely insane
Sometimes I feel your shame
You take a sip of reality
And sometimes that's all it takes
Now you have no option but to see
The road now is endless
Boulevards that make me feel alone
The city is senseless
And I don't feel like staying anymore
Why should I care about being more wealthy,
if compared to the poor I'm a king with a crown?
Why shouldn't I dedicate my existence
to helping them rise even if I fall down?
Cause it's in your nature
It's in your nature to want more
Cause it's in your nature
It's in your nature to be an idiot
I long for the silence that will make me weak and insecure
Are you really ready? You can sit and watch me as I fall
But when I hit the ground, I'm coming back around
To laugh back at your face for being what you hate

Here we are, it seems it's all ending
Or maybe that’s what I see when I watch your pretty face
and I see you falling back into the loop
I wanna fuck it up, fuck it up
Sometimes my faith in you breaks apart
So break it up. Break it all up
I'm losing my temper
I wanna listen up, listen up but I already did that
And when I did, you locked me up in the dark
Chairs make me stand up and roads make me sit
Unfinished business with my soul at stake
Oh evergreen, you're so far away
The evergreen seems so far away right now
And with this quickness I can barely turn around
(And I am bursting in flames)
Seriously, fuck it. I’m gonna end up rapping
cause you may listen to me then since you’re into every fashion
Sixteen pounds of doubt upon my shoulder
and you’re curiously still looking at my face
Oh, come on!
You let me burn
You still come creeping in the apartment
Like a fucking tarantula
The shadows of their past paying their debt
Here we are, I know it’s all ending
Or at least that’s what I’ve been told?
Here comes eternal Vantablackness and I’m like
"Dude what the fuck is wrong with you, are you all right?"
But you prefer to get consumed by the flame
The fire inside me is burning (calm down!)
and I’m desperately trying to breathe
I need to control it to get through the darkness that I seem to create
The question marks falling feel like summer rain
All I need is floating and drifting away
Am I to stay here and should I lose control?
Don’t bother, I should just let myself go
Here comes eternal Vantablackness and they’re like
"Dude what the fuck is wrong with you?"
But I am alright. I am alright
I am alright, I am fine
Creeping through the corridor, Vantablack
Lurking in the shadows, Vantablack
Now, we're all in the same place
Burn all the living beings, burn all their joyful dreams
As I embrace the shadows and I don't give a fuck

The Overview Effect

Brutal force beclouds the clear facts
Let's start again the industry of the failed "I am"
Where you feel like you're happy
Just because they said that you are
Yet it's so strange having all of these thoughts,
knowing that nothing can change
Lay awake, run from the shadows
Muppeteers are on their way to the show
So don't get scattered
Black and white for your decay
Get me inside your skin and I'll lay before you all the answers
Set your bet and leave me blind
I wanna see the whole world fly
Focus on the surface, the root is never ending
(Now that I'm gone, I'm lost in my blurred memories)
Lies of the system, that lies to itself and fading away with time
Focus on the surface the root is never ending
(Now that I'm gone, I'm lost in my blurred memories)
There it is again brainwashing my head
Now leaving me fucking dumb
Yenny, every, aspeh, hey-eh!
Oh yeah, you crazy bitches
You'll drive me insane
I wanna give you my name
Well I said I'd never go back to this hell
(I'm at it again)
Oh my god it's inbearable so scream and then pass me by
I wanna see the whole world fly
Set your bet and leave me blind
I wanna see the whole world fly
It seems you're bound to pretend for the reasons that keep you alive
I pledge my loyalty to the unknown and taking my time
So I will find inner peace in the colors of the sun-setting sky
You remain stupid just so you can control what's left of your pride
To see the whole world fly, to free everybody's mind
