[Verse] In Antwerpen's old streets where shadows play Rocamadour lights fade at end of the day Where Ursula Drees read her cards in the park Eine Yobiko's dreams softly push through the dark [Verse 2] In Präfektur von Yamanashi the mountains stand tall Toddler’s cries echo in the narrow hall Indistinct chatter on a hot summer night HdM Testatkarte anheften just might [Chorus] Wiederholt du bist so verdammt autark Du bist so verdammt autark [Verse 3] The wind tells tales that no one believes Stories of whispers and stolen keys Across the blue seas and silent embrace Lost in the twilight we both found our place [Verse 4] Forgotten alleys where mysteries bloom Dance of the fireflies under the moon Caught in a spiral we can’t comprehend The start of the journey is never the end [Chorus] Wiederholt du bist so verdammt autark Du bist so verdammt autark

The world keeps turning even after we’re gone Raindrops will fall, they don’t need anyone The faster, the better, humanity’s a plague We’re stuck in a loop, and counting the days The sun will still set, and the stars will burn out Clocks keep on ticking, but there’s nothing to count The future’s a lie, and the past doesn’t care Every step taken, it leads us nowhere Why live a life full of wasted potential Why tell the truth when it’s not what they want Why be a good person when good never works Mercy is met with a blade in return Why stand up for right when wrong is a winner Why bother smiling when everything’s a joke Why dream of the sky when you’re chained to the earth Mercy is met with a blade in return The waves coming in, try to wash us away Tides ever shifting, we simply stay in place The harder we work, the less we achieve We’re fighting for nothing, pretend to believe The streets might stop burning, but the blood never dries Ignoring the carnage, try as we might The future’s a lie, and the past doesn’t care Every step taken, it leads us nowhere Why live a life full of wasted potential Why tell the truth when it’s not what they want Why be a good person when good never works Mercy is met with a blade in return Why stand up for right when wrong is a winner Why bother smiling when everything’s a joke Why dream of the sky when you’re chained to the earth Mercy is met with a blade in return We’re born just to suffer, and die to be free Chasing a purpose that’s never been real This life’s but a cycle, we kill and we rape Still we keep marching, cause nothing’s at stake Why live a life full of wasted potential Why tell the truth when it’s not what they want Why be a good person when good never works Mercy is met with a blade in return Why stand up for right when wrong is a winner Why bother smiling when everything’s a joke Why dream of the sky when you’re chained to the earth Mercy is met with a blade in return Mercy is met with a blade in return

I always saw myself as someone Who'd chase the clouds and race the sun I thought the sky was mine to own I knew it strong as blood and bone But these strings and cords weren't meant for flight Not for kites that soar these dizzy heights Now I know they’re meant to tether For me to ground, for me to weather Looking up, the sky is only Looking somehow barren, lonely Someday I’ll make my peace and let it lie Now I know that I will live and die Not a pilot in these hollow skies Just another of these ordinary guys This heavy heart of mine won’t leave Keeps me grounded, oh how I believe These kites are not that different From these anchored boats we resent What if I am still the same Where nobody even knows my name Somehow a flicker in the starry skies Just yet another of these ordinary guys Looking up, it feels like somehow Every spark is right at home now Someday I’ll find my place and let it lie Now I know that I will live and die Not a pilot in these star-lit skies Just another of these ordinary guys Looking up, it feels like somehow Every spark is right at home now
I’m caught in a loop, it’s a déjà vu, Falling through the cracks of the things I knew. Chasing after echoes in an empty room, But every step I take just leads me back to you. I’m a runaway train, no track to find, A map with no compass, lost in my mind. All the words unsaid, they hang in the air, A fragile little silence, I’m not prepared. Shadows in my head, they don’t let go, Tracing all the lines I’ll never follow. Every piece of me you stole, I let it fade, Now I’m nothing but the mess you made. I write it all down, but it won’t make sense, These paper walls can’t hold the consequence. A melody plays, it’s a bittersweet tune, Of the promises we broke beneath the moon. I’m a flickering light, just burning out, A whisper of hope, now drowned in doubt. Every note I sing, it cuts too deep, The ghosts of your memory won’t let me sleep. Shadows in my head, they don’t let go, Tracing all the lines I’ll never follow. Every piece of me you stole, I let it fade, Now I’m nothing but the mess you made. And if I close my eyes, will I find peace? Or will I see the cracks beneath the seams? The silence screams louder than my heartbeat, I’m lost, I’m lost. Shadows in my head, they don’t let go, Tracing all the lines I’ll never follow. Every piece of me you stole, I let it fade, But I still hold on to the mess you made.

[Verse] In the shadows lurks the king Leather bound with broken wings Sweat drips down the haunted walls Echoes of forbidden calls [Verse 2] Ryan's here to watch the show Carnal secrets start to flow Chains and whispers they collide In this dark and twisted ride [Chorus] Fart king reigns in leather clad Lust and laughter gone a bit mad On the edge where passions meet In this club where wild hearts beat [Verse 3] Thrills unfold beneath the lights Masked desires take their flights Crowded room with restless eyes Draped in secrecy and lies [Bridge] Take a step into the dark Feel the heat ignite the spark Ryan's watching from the sides In the world where wild abides [Chorus] Fart king reigns in leather clad Lust and laughter gone a bit mad On the edge where passions meet In this club where wild hearts beat

[Verse] We were just kids with broken dreams Hiding truths behind our seams Paper planes thrown to disguise The silent tears in our eyes [Verse 2] Playgrounds turned to battlegrounds Silent screams made no sound Growing up in shadowed fears Watered down by our tears [Chorus] We built castles in the sand Felt the world slip from our hands Monsters hid beneath our beds Louder now inside our heads [Verse 3] We drew pictures on the wall Watched our heroes rise and fall Nights were long with haunted skies Counting stars to close our eyes [Bridge] In those moments we were strong Sang a fractured childhood song Now the echoes fade away Leaving scars in light of day [Chorus] We built castles in the sand Felt the world slip from our hands Monsters hid beneath our beds Louder now inside our heads
Jeg drikker kun vand, kaffe og alkohol, jeg er enten hydreret, fuld eller frisk. Mens verden kører rundt i sit vanvidsrul, finder jeg min balance – det er en kunstnerisk disk. Nogle siger, livet er så komplekst, men teknisk set har vi kun fire minutters tekst. Så vi trækker vejret og restarter igen, det er en evig loop – men hvem klager, min ven? Refræn Hvem har bestemt, at livet skal være kedeligt? Løft dit glas og gør det helt utroligt. For hør nu her, livet er så smukt og vildt, bare find din rytme, det er alt, der er til. Vers 2 Jeg foretrækker kvinder, som jeg foretrækker min kaffe, de skal ikke hedde Peter Larsen, tak skal du ha'. For livet er for kort til kompromis, så vælg det, der føles rigtigt, vær din egen magi. Med en bog i hånden og musikken på, kan selv en søndag føles som en festival, du må forstå.

[Verse] Walking down these empty halls Faces blend into the walls Whispered words that cut like knives In this place I’ve lived nine lives [Verse 2] Eyes that judge like silent knives Trying to find where courage hides Echoes in the locker room No sunlight can break this gloom [Chorus] Invisible shadows cast over me A symphony of silent pleas Trapped underneath this broken spree In a world that just won’t see [Bridge] Tears that fall like unplayed songs Wondering where it all went wrong In the mirror there's a ghost Of the life I needed most [Verse 3] Books and bullies break the day Lost in thoughts that drift away Words can wound but scars remain Slivers of an endless pain [Chorus] Invisible shadows cast over me A symphony of silent pleas Trapped underneath this broken spree In a world that just won’t see
Cruisin’ through the city lights, Chasing shadows in the summertime, Got my heart on my sleeve, it’s a neon vibe, A dreamer in a world that moves like a lullaby. Every corner holds a memory, We’re painting canvases with symphonies. Fingers caught in the rhythm, We dance through the night, feelin’ like we’re made for this. I’m lost in the glow, where the wild things roam, With the stars above like a gentle home. Every heartbeat echoes, like waves on the shore, Living life in color, can’t ask for more. Late nights and rooftop views, Conversations whispered in soft hues. In the backseat, I’m vibin’ with you, The world disappears, and it’s just us two. Talking dreams and getting high on the truth, Every word, a reflection of the youth. Time’s a fleeting ghost, so let it slide, We’re writing our story with the moon as our guide. I’m lost in the glow, where the wild things roam, With the stars above like a gentle home. Every heartbeat echoes, like waves on the shore, Living life in color, can’t ask for more. Catch me in the moment, where the wild winds blow, Heartbeats synchronize, as the seasons unfold. Painting pictures on our skin, the past don’t define, We’re living for today, you and I intertwined. So let the city sing us to sleep, In a symphony of dreams, we dive so deep. Forever in this glow, never letting go, Living life in color, lost, but we glow.
(Verse 1) I saw you in a picture, half-shadow, half-light. Your ghost was in the corner, haunting the frame that night. A flicker in the kitchen, an echo in the hall. I tried to call your name, but the silence answered all. (Chorus) Now the fog rolls in, pulls me under, pulls me thin. Every step feels like a dare, you’re everywhere, you’re not there. (Verse 2) The radio’s still playing, a static lullaby. The words sound like a warning, but I can’t tell you why. The cracks along the ceiling trace maps of where we’ve been. But every road I follow just loops me back again. (Chorus) Now the fog rolls in, pulls me under, pulls me thin. Every step feels like a dare, you’re everywhere, you’re not there. (Bridge) I used to think the quiet was something I could hold. Now it’s just the weight of a story left untold. (Outro) Your voice is in the branches, your shadow in the tide. I carry you in pieces, a truth I can’t deny. (Soft Refrain) The fog rolls in, pulls me under, pulls me thin. Every step feels like a dare, you’re everywhere, you’re not there.
