Lyrics:
Voices that have never silenced
Now the choir will swell again
Never thought that it could happen
But it seems we make the same mistakes again.

Don't wanna se they're just liars
Don't wanna see what is to come
Don't wanna see the misery that came on us back 80 years ago.

All falls down, the time is nigh
All falls down, a time to cry
All falls down, but we are rising
Standing tall until we die.

We'll never sit and watch
Never let them grow again
We don't fear that shaved-head scum
Nor the police that is always on their side.

They want you to be a slave
Even more than you are now
They will set the land on fire
When you burn down, noone cares you never learn.

All Falls Down

Actually these are two songs from our first EP we put into one. Session drums by Vlad Ivanov, Mastering by Felix Brüske @mor-tonstudio.de
There is also a video for this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lj-5SSxTO50

Heathens  (extended version 22)

Nomen est Omen. This song appears in different shapes and there are more to come. Two different versions can be found if sought.
Originally performed by Madderwort. Written by Felix Brüske and Christoph Langer. Session drums by Vlad Ivanov. First time we tried the soundcloud-mastering function.
Lyrics:
"new millenium, new diseases,
subjugation: progress
a creature that is out to take us, eating our souls

run away has turned out futile
as it hides inside all people
in every person that you meet and
beware, it is also inside us

time has come to face the demon
our love's the only weapon
fighting for a new millenium
let's get out of here
let's get on and fight

paranoia, hopeless fury
symptoms of a global crisis
zombifying mind controlling that monster knows it all
digitalized ideal bodies, a thousand shapes, the just hide one

but we never give up fighting
the future it is ours to create!"

Xenomorph (A.I. mastering)

Quite a lean arrangement, compared to our other songs.
Additional drums and mastering by Felix Brüske.
Lyrics:

"Hear they say it's getting harder
Hear they say it's getting bad
Oh, I know, that's no reason to be sad
'Cause there always will be places, where they can use someone like you
And you have been used so often, you will see that's nothing new

What you do or what you say 
It's the same anyway
If you curse or if you pray
It will hurt
What you do or what you say
Noone listenes anyway
If you go or if you stay
It will hurt another day

Now you've found a way to walk on
But you are forced to stay at home
Have to beg the state for money
And maybe the'll get you some
As you see your world is going down, you may find a place to hide
But the sorrow that has spawned in you will linger by your side."

Venlafaxine

Lyrics:
"Here on a cardboard box
In a bus shelter of the town
I drink my wine and try
To hide my thornmade crown
My back huerts and I feel worn out
Like a punching bag, bought, used
That has been hit by heavy weights
And from time to time got abused

This is the art of losing time
It's rushing by undefined
Maybe someday I'll take a ride
And see what heaven has to hide

My shoes say leave no traces
My eyes don't see the stars
With a past long left behind me
I see the future as a farce
Forget the faces of yesterday
Forget the faces I used to know
Still wonder how I got right here
Time might show me a place to go

Maybe you see me tomorrow
You might even see me today
Drink myself to sleep now
Tomorrow will be another day."

Lyrics:
"Now I see our poor old town is burning
All the houses we used to call our home
When this is over, noone will ever confess

Never learn from history, the children would be beaten
Since time began the rats are waiting to take the streets again
Never learn from history, concerns are being drunk away

When the circus comes into town, when the circus is back again
When the circus comes into town, regrets will come too late again

It's always been easy to evoke the hate that sleeps inside
Just look out to find someone to point your finger on
But when this is over noone will ever confess

Never learn from history, the children still be beaten
For 80 years the rats were waiting to take the streets again
never learn from history, it always ends the same way."

The Lo-Fi Heathens - All Along The Watchtower (collab with the lo-fi zombies)

NO MATTER HOW OPEN MINED SOCIETY PRETENDS TO BE, YOU AS AN INDIVIDUAL WILL NEVER BE ACCEPTED.

Just a sign of living after the summer break. New version of the band's anthem. Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqZb6fiIqx8

Heathens (version 25)

First release in 2026. There is also a video to it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3feCS6Nn1Tw&list=RD3feCS6Nn1Tw&start_radio=1
lyrics:" dark grey horizons
another day in the toxic air
school's out for summer
days are filled with bleak despair
then you start to look for someone
to know the word you long to hear
there he (she) rides on dreamy colours
and he (she) knows your secret fear
instinct drives those creatures out
the darkness of their hole
when they're on their midnight creep
hungry for your soul

trophy heads inside his (her) room
your head above his (her bed)

the vampire's coming for you
you feel that yout longing coming true
there is no love, no romance
it's all about feeding, it's all about bleeding

black hooded children
funeral streets, the knell will toll
neon green letters, "no future" sprayed on a concrete wall
everything your day's about everything that you can smoke
question noone dares to ask: "what you do when you are broke?"
childhood ends in doomsday years, nothing you can do
hope that's left has just been saved for a chosen few"

The Vampire
