So Close 04:56
I’ve cut myself a comfort zone And all I hear are echoes I’ve cut myself a comfort zone And all I see are reflections I can’t feel you I can’t see you You’re nothing but a silhouette to me There’s no commitment There’s no connection We’ll all die alone I’m in control, I’m in control But deep inside I’ve lost my soul I’m everywhere, I’m everything But there’s no place where I belong Never so close, yet so far apart I know them all, but not at all I’ve cut myself a comfort zone And all I hear are echoes I’ve cut myself a comfort zone And all I see are reflections I can’t feel you I can’t see you You’re nothing but a silhouette to me There’s no commitment There’s no connection We’ll all die alone I’m in control, I’m in control But deep inside I’ve lost my soul I’m everywhere, I’m everything But there’s no place where I belong Never so close, yet so far apart I know them all, but not at all (Break down) Identity used to be a birth right, but now it’s become a task The freedom to be whoever I want to be has become the heaviest of burdens Don’t you see, we were made, we were designed, you’re not an accident! Be who you were made to be, be who you were made to be

Running Away 03:32
I can’t stop, sorry Just on my way, just passing through Don’t have time to worry It’s best to keep moving, you know it’s true Try this one on for size Don’t keep me waiting though Don’t tell me the time We’re living for the here and now bro Don’t you see, Who has time for commitment? This is the fee, This is the way it’s supposed to be Keep up, don't slow me down If you’re not at the top of your game you’re losing out man It’s like liquid, like water Running all around You just keep You just keep on running away Frantically freaking out From place to place From date to doubt You feel it now, right? That motion sickness, That sense of fickleness, It keeps us running It keeps us shallow as It’s that freaky freedom you love It’s that desire to try it all Keep me moving, cruising, bruising all over I can’t hear myself think I can’t feel the ground beneath me sink If we keep this going There’s no slowing down You just keep You just keep on running away If we never take the time to think about the reason we’re here We’ll never know, we’ll never know If we let it take over and just go with the flow We’ll slowly die, we’ll never know, we’ll never know You just keep You just keep on running away

You know I’ll never ever have enough You know my weakness and you call my bluff I need so much it’s no joke it’s so tough Just keep it coming cause I’m loving all this stuff You’re cold hearted and you leave me needing I’m fixated on this toxic way of living You take it all until I have no feeling You teach me vice, addiction fills my lack of meaning This is my new religion I take it all and then i sink into oblivion It’s who i am, it’s who we are Consumer choice is my new ID card I’m pleased too easy and left empty inside There’s nothing here that can completely satisfy Who can free me from myself? I want to fight but find no strength against the tide I’m void of passion I’m left me to die It’s never stopping Can’t remember, who am I You know I’ll never ever have enough You know my weakness and you call my bluff I need so much it’s no joke it’s so tough Just keep it coming cause I’m loving all this stuff This is my new religion I take it all and then i sink into oblivion It’s who i am, it’s who we are Consumer choice is my new ID card I’m pleased too easy and left empty inside There’s nothing here that can completely satisfy Who can free me from myself? I want to fight but find no strength against the tide I’m void of passion I’m left me to die It’s never stopping Can’t remember, who am I

Abyss 03:50
My soul thirsts for more than this Because we’re made for another world You’re heart has a God-shaped abyss You’re not meant to be alone May the day perish on which I was born, And the night in which it was said, A child is born May that day be darkness; May God above not seek it, Nor the light shine upon it. May darkness and the shadow of death claim it; May a cloud settle on it; May the blackness of the day terrify it. As for that night, may darkness seize it; May it not rejoice among the days of the year, May it not come into the number of the months. Oh, may that night be barren! May no joyful shout come into it! May those curse it who curse the day, May the stars of its morning be dark; May it look for light, but have none, And not see the dawning of the day; Because it did not shut up the doors of my mother’s womb, Nor hide sorrow from my eyes. Why did I not die at birth? Why did I not perish when I came forth? For now I would have lain still and quiet, I would have been asleep; I would have been at rest With kings and counsellors of the earth, Who built ruins for themselves, Or with princes who had gold, Who filled their houses with silver; Why was I not hidden like a stillborn child, Like infants who never saw light? There the wicked cease from troubling, There the weary are at rest. There the prisoners rest together; Why is light given to him who is in misery, Why is life given to the bitter of soul, My soul thirsts for more than this Because we’re made for another world You’re heart has a God-shaped abyss You’re not meant to be alone

We’ve stepped below the line There’s no turning back, there’s no turning back We’ve left the plot behind You can’t figure out what it’s all about If I can’t find the way, If I can’t find the reason There’s nothing left for me, there’s nothing left for me Without a ground to stand on Left alone in the dark If there’s nothing else beyond this Then why does my soul cry out for more

React 01:21
Your passion burns like a red hot coal You know it’s now or never, it’s time to go They think it’s all under their control But greed and pride will take its toll Bread and circus can’t keep you in line Don’t sell out for this cheap wine You’re made for more than this, stay alive Keep your passion, we’re not dead yet! Stand up and fight it now Don’t put that fire out We’ll take this all the way Anger is an energy! This is the fight, the moment of truth Don’t give in to this nihilistic spoof Resist, react, redeem the dream Human rights have an origin Please don’t forget, please don’t deny Can you tell from the look in my eye You are the ones, you have a choice There is still hope, you have a voice! Stand up and fight it now Don’t put that fire out We’ll take this all the way Anger is an energy!

What is this fear? What is this hate? Will insecurity ever leave me be? I’m a refugee, untouchable Sojourner here, I have no home But haven’t all peoples’ been an immigrant some day? Is there hope, is there love Is there a place where we’ll be free Kick me out, make me bleed Build a wall, or make me flee We’re washing up the shores, this isn’t our ideal of freedom This place is not my home We’re pilgrims on this lonely planet Waiting for another world, Don’t make this home These things will cease to be Don’t set your heart On what is passing by I have a dream, I have a vision When egalite, fraternite and liberte Are reality and not mask Listen to the music, it doesn’t let me lie! I have a dream, I have a vision When different is no threat Diversity is a cornerstone And humanity is my family Don’t make this home These things will cease to be Don’t set your heart On what is passing by This place is not my home We’re pilgrims on this lonely planet Waiting for another world

We can do better than this This is not the end Deep down inside of all of us The image of the one who is Make room for the revolution, this it, this is the time Make room for the revolution, we’ve had enough, we will not relent You have eternity in your heart Don’t you give in for less Your soul cries out for more This is not the end We can do better than this This is not the end Deep down inside of all of us The image of the one who is The revolution will not happen online. It will not come from the mainstream, or these empty philosophies, it won’t come from nice feelings and pretty pictures. Make room for the revolution, this is it, this is the time Make room for the revolution, we’ve had enough, we will not relent You have eternity in your heart Don’t you give in for less Your soul cries out for more This is not the end

Listen to the depths Feel that indwelling unmistakeable Listen up, listen up! The deep cries out Listen up, listen up! The dwelling
