"Tired of the Mask" (By Zane) [Verse 1] Wake up, fake a smile, paint it on my face, Mirror’s cracked, but I still play the same old game. Laugh lines drawn, but they don’t feel real, Hollow echoes in a world I can't heal. Heartbeat’s heavy, drowning in the noise, Empty words, just a puppet with no voice. Lights are bright, but they don’t touch my soul, I’m breaking down, but no one needs to know. [Pre-Chorus] I’m screaming in silence, trapped in the dark, A masterpiece of sadness, called it art. But behind these eyes, there's a storm I can't tame, Tired of pretending, tired of this game. [Chorus] I’m tired of the mask, tired of the lies, Drowning in shadows, under sunny skies. Can’t you see me? Can’t you hear the fall? I’m breaking, shaking, losing it all. No more pretending, no more disguise— I just wanna be real, even if it means goodbye. [Verse 2] Chased perfection, but it’s a fleeting ghost, Built a castle on fears I hate the most. Laughter’s loud, but the silence is louder, Fading fast, like petals losing their color. Hands reaching out, but afraid to touch, Fragile heart, yeah, it’s been through too much. Wish I could scream, let the truth unfold, But it's safer to be numb than to be bold. [Pre-Chorus] I’m screaming in silence, trapped in the dark, A masterpiece of sadness, called it art. But behind these eyes, there's a storm I can't tame, Tired of pretending, tired of this game. [Chorus] I’m tired of the mask, tired of the lies, Drowning in shadows, under sunny skies. Can’t you see me? Can’t you hear the fall? I’m breaking, shaking, losing it all. No more pretending, no more disguise— I just wanna be real, even if it means goodbye. [Bridge] If I fall, will someone catch me? If I cry, will someone see? I’m more than the smiles they expect me to be, A boy lost, just wanting to be free. [Final Chorus] I’m tired of the mask, tired of the lies, Drowning in shadows, under sunny skies. Can’t you see me? Can’t you hear the fall? I’m breaking, shaking, losing it all. No more pretending, no more disguise— I just wanna be real… Even if it means goodbye. [Outro] No more masks, no more fear, Just the truth, raw and clear. I’m here… I’m still here.

[Verse] Sunshine's dancing on the sea today Waves keep whispering in a lazy way Palm trees swaying to that inner beat Feel the rhythm under my bare feet [Verse] Got no worries in this island breeze Smile as wide as these coconut trees Life’s a melody in every note Hear the music in the boatman's quote [Chorus] Let's ride the tide to another shore Find the groove and always ask for more Sing with the sun till the set is near In this paradise we got no fear [Verse] Stars light the sky as the night unfolds Stories written in the sands of gold Laughter echoes through the balmy air Every moment here becomes a prayer [Verse] Dance with the moon in a sacred trance Forget your troubles in this sweet romance Feel the magic in the ocean's breath Every sunrise bringing life from death [Chorus] Let's ride the tide to another shore Find the groove and always ask for more Sing with the sun till the set is near In this paradise we got no fear

[Verse] Elke tweede nag is tyd gemaak, Kerse brand, die huis is sag en stil. Ons droom oor 'n klein kiertstander, Wat van ons liefde overtuigd is en vol. [Verse 2] As hy 'n seun is, sal hy sy ma se kind wees, Sy sagte slapers en haar kalmte. Maar as ons dogtertjie kom, dis my beurt, Haar dapperheid en my lank verwagte oomblik. [Chorus] Elke tweede nag, ons droom begin, Met liefde en hoop wat ons bring. Ons wag en ons hoop, enige uur, Vir 'n stemmetjie wat ons lewens sal kleur. [Verse 3] Ons staan daarby, hande vasgevou, Elke oomblik, elke klein gebaar. Ons toekoms wag agter hierdie deur, Met 'n nuwe lewe, meer liefde as tevore. [Bridge] Ons plan en ons wag en ons bid, Vir daardie wonder, ons tyd om te skep. 'My seun, sy ma se trots', sê ek sag, 'My dogter, haar pa se sterkte oralweg'. [Chorus] Elke tweede nag, ons droom begin, Met liefde en hoop wat ons bring. Ons wag en ons hoop, enige uur, Vir 'n stemmetjie wat ons lewens sal kleur.

[Verse 1] Beneath the sky so vast and cold, Two warriors walk, their fates foretold. With blades in hand and hearts still weighed, By battles fought and dues unpaid. The Darklight Blade hums low with fire, Yet neither bends, nor seeks desire. No fear to break, no gods to plead, Just steel and fate, just will and need. [Verse 2] Mallookie moves like fleeting shade, A smirk that hides the price he’s paid. Twin blades sing, both fast and keen, A storm of steel, a force unseen. No rest, no peace, no mercy found, Just war that calls, its hollow sound. And Rakan walks where shadows crawl, Where light and dark bend to his call. No wasted steps, no second thought, Each strike a truth that time has wrought. Not death, nor pain, nor endless fight, Can shake the path he knows is right. [Verse 3] Through blood and dust, through silent screams, They carve their fate beyond men’s dreams. Yet in their wake, behind the haze, Two voices rise through sorrow’s maze. Lady Yuna, fierce yet fair, Her blade as light as whispered air. A warrior’s soul, a song of woe, With hands that heal and steel that glows. And Liora stands where Mallookie strides, A fire lost in shifting tides. Her fate entwined, though battle calls, She’d walk beside him through it all. [Verse 4] Steel meets steel and flames ignite, Not for glory, nor for spite. Not for kingdoms, crowns, or names, But for the fire that still remains. Let the winds bear witness true, To all they lost, to all they knew. [Outro] Beneath the sky so vast and cold, Two warriors stand, their fates retold…
