Self Deceiver You don't want to realize That your stories reach the end Turn a deaf ear to the words The words of self-righteous comments You don't care Living in a castle made of dreams You refuse to change your mind You don't want to face the truth Cause it takes your breath away Breathless You've built a wall to keep all the light and sense of realities away Pretend to understand All the wrong decisions Lead the situation to the worst of the worst A twisted memory is ready to drift Tear your heart apart, you don't want to resist If there is no turning back, leave the world all behind Please take me to the Neverland The wall is crushing down, raze to the ground You refuse to fight, just a waste of time Take one last dance, just last dance Be a self-deceiver and die alone All alone All alone All alone

Angel In A Box This is where I found the angel created by desire A dreadfully pale body soak in the water And no one can shift their eyes She opens her eyes and touches the glass Reaches out to where I stand She is longing for escape Even freedom would take her life Like a water tank full of nutrient Like a freak show never reach the end Like a canary locked in cage she says: "You and I are the same kind of slave" Like a butterfly to a fire pyre Even if you know life is just a moment So I see her singing in the night Becoming ashes at sunrise This is a failed experiment based on the drugs and pills She has no sense of taste and no sense of pain Only signal can reach her brain She opens her eyes and touches the glass Reaches out to where I stand She is longing for escape Even freedom would take her life Like a water tank full of nutrient Like a freak show never reach the end Like a canary locked in cage she says: "You and I are the same kind of slave" Like a butterfly to a fire pyre Even if you know life is just a moment So I see her singing in the night Becoming ashes at sunrise

Canvas 06:57
Canvas A black raindrop falls, a frozen swallowtail Life is always gorgeous, when it comes to the end Sink myself into ocean for solitary peace Carve the voice of silence, draw the empty mind Every stroke on canvas, every mistake me make Constantly covering, never dissipate Every color we paint, every time we bleed Whenever we forget, the scar will hurt again Aimless searching, greedy demand The poisonous paranoid, drives me insane Build nothingness, reject reality I can feel existence, when looking into your eyes Every stroke on canvas, every mistake me make Constantly covering, never dissipate Every color we paint, every time we bleed Whenever we forget, the scar will hurt again When the train pulls into the platform I couldn't recognize the sight in front of me for a moment It seems reasonable for anything to happen here A city of revolution, love and lust We numb ourselves with parties and booze No need for reflection, it's pointless An invisible wall separates the two worlds Lies and sins will never be revealed I will paint it on your skin With my sorrow and my fear You will be my obsession My endless nightmare I wish this feel could last forever Let me out of control This is how I lose myself My perfect canvas I saw a ballerina finish her last move A circus completed its last show People burned the costumes and piano Farewell to everyone I saw a mannequin dressed as an angel A deformed belief stuffed into an eggshell I saw a poet cut his arteries And a red sunflower bloomed on his wrist I will paint it on your skin With my sorrow and my fear You will be my obsession My endless nightmare I wish this feel could last forever Let me out of control This is how I lose myself My perfect canvas
