The fear of death the concern of the unknown the need to find An explanation of all the unanswered questions of human kind Lay the foundations of an idyllic axiom to wipe out all doubts They put their lives into its hands and spread it throughout But who's the God you've been believing in? What kind of hope is he promising? How can your faith be so encouraging To trade your life for what you've never seen? Have you ever supposed your vision may be far from the truth? Have you ever realized what they persuade you to think is yet to be proved How can you believe a deity is watching over us? It's an unfounded conjecture to deceive your life but it's a lie I cannot trust It's an unfounded conjecture to deceive your life but it's a lie I don't wanna trust Incongruities and mysteries of a divine entity That never shows his - presence in our - declining society Just open your eyes, take a look around then tell me what you see Millions starving children, disasters, conflicts, poverty and greed I find it hard to accept faith as a reason to start a war, Indulgences to steal from the poor Crusades and butcheries in the name of the Lord So liberate your soul Religion is only a cloak to seize the world So where's the God you've been believing in? And where's the hope he's been promising? Don't let believers mislead your mind They're telling you a 2012 year lie.

Tomahawks will replace the fireworks Landmines concealed on the sidewalks Don't filter out any idea in your dialogues They are monitored by a taskforce of cyborgs The billboards remind there's no way to escape from this oppressing place The worst case scenario is taking shape stepping up the pace and all around Rebellious' dead bodies lying on the ground behead brutally The only way to stay alive is to resign to conformity No thoughts allowed adapt yourself to the crowd Obey the rules of the dystopic vow Strung out in lines like million puppets guilty of not having minds We will be one voice when we start the countdown to our destruction Because we're getting closer Though the clock is ticking slower In a society of repression and violence The sun went down and left its place to darkness The billboards remind there's no way to escape from this oppressing place The worst case scenario is taking shape stepping up the pace and all around Rebellious' dead bodies lying on the ground behead brutally The only way to stay alive is to resign yourself to conformity

Just a simple middle age man worker, a husband, a dad An ordinary life like other millions out there There's nothing really special in just saying that Until his nation was surprised by the nuclear threat In a second he realized he lost everything he had In 2 seconds he realized he'll never have it back An escape could be the key for a better way His sacrifice was the choice that he immediately made Radiation alarm raised to level 5 A radioactive cloud is eclipsing the sky The reactor number 2 is going haywire The emergency system has just misfired They want the catastrophe to sound like a simple mistake But it's the beginning of the apocalypse that human kind made Thousands of victims and a nation struggling inside Stuck in a one-way tunnel to our own demise Kneeled to hopelessness but still he chose to act But life still is worth though in decline A silent hero never shows his face A SILENT SACRIFICE FOR A NATION that will never know his name It sounds like a suicide but someone's got to do this He gives his wife and son a last hug and a kiss It's a mission for the sake of his community He's aware he's going to die as a volunteer Not a single tear, not a single regret Every effort is essential to hold the tragedy back No one but his family will recall his name No one but his family to commemorate A SILENT SACRIFICE

Where’s the faith we grew up with? Where’s the moral bands used to teach? Some came and went like a flag in the wind, Pretended to care while backstabbed our dreams Indeed we won’t be deceived in you Got no more clear conscience or anyone to screw Through the years we came to realize The bands to respect and the ones to despise Wise words didn’t turn into action And my disappointment is raising this objection The path to pride precludes the one to glory You dimmed your minds and it’s the same old story Wise words didn’t turn into action And my disappointment is raising this objection Trendy winds blew our values away A blow below the belt and I’m so ashamed So far from what it used to be just a way to bear reality So look back in anger and commit the sin, regain your pride and save our scene On the face of it the good old purposes are collapsing But I don’t mind and choose to grit my teeth So far from what it used to be just a way to bear reality So look back in anger and commit the sin, regain your pride and save our scene On the face of it the good old purposes are collapsing But I don’t mind and choose to grit my teeth Choose to grit my teeth To save my fucking scene

Traces of grace are surrounding me My only hope my own Madeleine to save me Waiting for someone to save me now Lost days felt used while there’s no time to lose So cut my lid and let me see again This crowd is chocking me And wants me to be hung here Traces of grey I left behind My previous life in Dublin is going to leave me I keep the lid on what I was before Cause I know I’ve never been afraid to look back I am fire My hidden sun lends me its light To preserve the secret My hidden sun lends me its light To make clear on myself So cut my lid and let me see again This crowd is chocking me And wants me to be hung here right in front of them To forget false idols To come back again To shut up all regrets Leading us to the end

I’m back again after a long while Coming all the way from the other side of the world To the place I miss so bad To the place that once was my home But the atmosphere is not the same anymore And I am walking on the 4th street all alone No friend is by my side now Not a single face I know And it’s so hard to accept now there’s nothing left Days went by too fast leaving nothing but memories Of a time that will never come back Still I don’t want to admit that I had better quit ‘Cause the frames I’m seeing in here are all the memories That brought me back and that will walk me through the years I’ve never known what the sense of tomorrow was In a time when everything was so close A thick veil of nostalgia enshrouds my mind I’m longing for the life we left behind Face to face with my failure ‘cause I didn’t expect If there’s a beginning there is also going to be an end Wrong-foot, all alone, old friends have already left I want to run to them but I cannot make a step And it’s so hard to accept now there’s nothing left Days went by too fast leaving nothing but memories Of a time that will never come back Still I don’t want to admit that I had better quit ‘Cause the frames I’m seeing in here are all the memories That brought me back and that will walk me through the years I wish I could just push rewind Reignite the hope that was burning inside I want the future to reverse its way To find myself once again in yesterday I find myself on a dead end street Present is the enemy I can’t defeat A tide called time is rising more and more I feel like I’m drowning and I see no shore The wind is blowing on my wounded chest And I realize my soul is crumbling into sand But inside my mind I still enshrine a stack Of memories of a time that will never come back
