Here I am, waiting for the lines you wrote me because I’m not afraid, not afraid of you. I don’t need you anymore. I can live my life the way that I want it. The sun is gone, nowhere to run. Nowhere to lay my head down. Where can I start again? It’s hard to convince yourself that it’s okay living alone devoid of reasons… I am standing on the line, keeping a clear mind. I don’t want to see tomorrow as I see today. Now I stare to the ground, I can’t believe I might be wrong. It’s always the same, when we stay true we’re the liar... Waiting here for too long , I know what it’s like to be alone. My bottle doesn't feel the shame like I do. One foot on the edge, one foot over emptyness. What is left? Where do you go now? I won’t turn my back. I faced the lies the cries, the tears in my eyes but I’m still here and I’ll stay here! So here I am, waiting for the lines you wrote me because I’m not afraid, not afraid of you. I don’t need you anymore. I can live my life the way that I want it.

Breakaway 03:55
There’s a broken world inside your mind. You search yourself every day, before the greatest decline. Look ahead and follow the stars. Because we’ll never know maybe it could be better in the end... Break away from your hopeless situation. You never seem to care at all these calls from everywhere. Run away! Nothing will hold you back. You can’t change the past anyway look ahead and find your way like me. You’re not awaken. You’re still stuck in your fuckin’ nightmare. You got to get out haven’t you realized you’re still alive? Nothing left to hold on. Seconds dropping until the last one. You got to get out haven’t you realized you’re still alive? Get up!

Fears 04:28
It's hard to breathe, I’m pushing you away. Until my war ends liberate my mind from you. So bright I can’t stare. This light could only blind me. Walk on my freedom, you see someone that I’m not. Fears, you try to hold me. You cannot keep me down because I will never let you win. Fears, you can’t control me. You cannot break me down because I will never let you win. Have you ever thought that you’ll never rise? Until my night ends liberate my mind from you. Have you ever wish a sun falling appart? From the start , the illusions I’ve burned em all.

Looking for a reason to justify your actions, you might be the last one to testify our reactions. Annoying, complaining, impartiality? Our fears are behind. We can't wait to fight back. Wait for the right time to come. We stand for the fairness we deserve. Shout it loud! I do believe in! We’re tired of being underground. We fight for better days through the waste. Some things will never change. I still have a pulse. This is not the end. I hope I can pretend, we’re far away from the end. The waiting hasn’t killed the ache that flows in my veins. Annoying, complaining, impartiality? Our fears are behind, we can’t wait to fight back! Wait for the right time to come. We stand for the fairness we deserve. Shout it loud! I do believe in! We’re tired of being underground. We fight for better days through the waste. Some things will never change if we're not the change. It’s not over, I’m not quite asleep. It’s not over, the dices are in our hands.

On The Road 03:47
I can't tell you where I go, there's no way back. Does it really matter? I'm out of town. I don't belong to this place. This city made of sands. The road will show me how rude I am. I need to follow my way. I won't forget you anyway. You see, I'm not welcome here. We could escape and get away. Let's live this story on our own. We could escape and get away. You see, I'm not welcome here. I won't forget you anyway. Let's live this story on our own. Can't tell you where I go. There's no way back. My friends they say I'm crazy but I won't look back. I don't belong to this place. Let's break the hourglass. The world will show me how cruel I am . I need to follow my way.

Black Ocean 04:32
We came from so far that we can’t even look back. I feel so much over the edge. No nothing’s gonna hit me, nothing’s gonna blow me away. Today is a day to forget about the sad times what we’ve been through and all the things we messed up with. Today is a day to forget about the sad times what we’ve been through and all those things we messed up again and again. As I can see we always learn from our mistakes. All I can say we’ll never remember the good ones, we can escape the black ocean. It’s not too late to breathe. It’s not too late to be free. It’s not too late to be free. It’s not too late to become who you really want to be. The ocean is not always black. Relax, slow down and live.
