Dead Flowers

(Album: Coexistence - 2016)

The frames are blank and the flowers are fucking dead
Fuck!
I'm drowning in thoughts, the time has come once again

(Oh yeah, oh!)

Overslept the whole day, still lying on my bed and weltering back and forth
Thousands of thoughts whiz around in my head
It's hard to explain what's still growing in me
Just look into my eyes for the last time
The time has come for me to rise
(Just look into my eyes)
Just look into my eyes for the last time

My mind was covered by shadows
Dark forces have pulled me away for too long
The half life I follow on this railroad line
But my train has left the station for a long time (oh!)

I just wanted to wake up from this nightmare
But there was no way to turn the page
Issues, fears of loss, paranoia, jealousy
At some point I just wanted to run, to run away
But you, you didn't want to face what we have become
Can you see what you've done to me and to yourself?
(Dead slowly I can recognize myself)
Dead slowly I can recognize myself in the mirror again

Tonight I try to forget
The frames are blank and the flowers are fucking dead
It's my life now I take it back

I was waiting for the problems to solve themselves
Too weak to resist the fight against you and myself
The more I've searched the less I've found
This is the last time that you drag me back down (yeah!)

Fragments of dreams
Half asleep, nothing is what it seems (nothing!)
You let me down (Nothing!) you let me drown
I'm never looking back again, you got that? (Oh!)

(Yeah!)

I was waiting for the problems to solve themselves
Too weak to resist the fight against you and myself
The more I've searched the less I've found
This is the last time that you drag me back down
The more I've searched (the more I've searched) the less I've found
This is the last time (this is the last time!)
I'm never looking back again

I was just a mask with a crooked smile
You tried to control me for quite a while
I was on the ropes for too long
Nothing left but a bitter taste on my tongue (yeah!)

But now I know how to hide the scars
The time has come for me to rise again
