The song explores the human struggle with the passage of time, focusing on themes of mortality, regret, and the weight of the past. It presents time as an inescapable force that shapes existence, haunting us with memories of lost moments and the inevitability of death. The cinematic and haunting musical direction amplifies this sense of existential tension, blending introspection with urgency.

The core message is a reflection on how we grapple with time’s relentless march. The lyrics suggest that people often fear the future and death, but the real loss lies in the past—moments, dreams, and opportunities that have already slipped away. The song urges listeners to confront this reality, let go of lingering regrets, and embrace the present as the only true moment of existence. The rap verse and bridge emphasize a shift toward acceptance, encouraging resilience and mindfulness ("Only now exists") to find peace amidst time’s haunting presence. The recurring motif of being "haunted by time" underscores the tension between clinging to the past and living fully in the present.

Haunted by Time

God Is Dead

What It Takes

If I Was Your Vampire

RoadRunner  (Hollywood Mix)

Thin man watches
Stretching through the trees
Eyes like hollow wells
No breath no breeze
He waits he waits
No footsteps no sound

Hat pulled low shadow grows
Whispered tales where no one knows

Shadows in the fog
They’re creeping, creeping near
Slender walks beside you
The Hat Man feeds your fear
Run, run but they follow
They’re always, always here

Black coat flowing
A void inside his stare
Pale hands reaching
Dragging you somewhere
You scream, you scream
But no one is there

Hat pulled low shadow grows
Whispered tales where no one knows

Shadows in the fog
They’re creeping, creeping near
Slender walks beside you
The Hat Man feeds your fear
Run, run but they follow
They’re always always here

Metal X - Shadows

(Verse 1)
Grey sky bleeding on the TV glow,
Coffee’s gone cold but I can’t let go.
Your ghost lives in my cigarette,
Every drag’s a memory I can’t forget.

(Pre-Chorus)
And I still wear your name like a stain,
I don’t feel much, just the echo and rain.

(Chorus)
When December calls, I don’t pick up,
Snow hits the ground like broken love.
Your shadow’s screaming down these halls,
And I cave in every time December calls.

(Verse 2)
Frostbite fingers on the windowpane,
Writing your name just to blur it again.
My cracked voice hums your favorite song,
Feels like forever’s been gone too long.

(Pre-Chorus)
You’re the whisper in the static hum,
The ache in the chord when the night goes numb.

(Chorus)
When December calls, I don’t pick up,
Snow hits the ground like broken love.
Your shadow’s screaming down these halls,
And I cave in every time December calls.

(Bridge)
The heater’s dying, I’m wide awake,
Drowning slow in my own mistakes.
You said I’d heal, but you lied so well—
Now I’m just fine in my private hell.

(Final Chorus)
When December calls, I don’t pick up,
The lines are dead, I’ve had enough.
But your echo’s hanging off these walls,
And I break down when December calls.

(Outro – distorted, fading scream)
Yeah… when December calls…
I still fall.

Somewhere somehow someone

Sometimes, it just come back... I wanted to find a way to get this out of my brain.
All guitars, bass and lyrics are mine


Drum, piano, voice is AI.

Lyrics:

Verse 1
You came like dusk behind the rain
No sound, no step -  just tears again
I knew your weight before the breeze
You settle in and never tease

Pre-Chorus
Did I invite you back again?
Or did you slip beneath my skin?
You feed on all I fail to hide
But if I fall, will you survive ?
You only breathe because I do
If I disappear  - so will you


Chorus
Welcome back, old friend of pain
You walk the halls inside my brain
You bloom where broken hopes still lie
Then vanish when I wonder why
And though you never ask to stay
I’m the one who shows the way


Verse 2
You crawl beneath my waking skin
And twist the light I hold within
You paint the walls in shades of dread
Then whisper dreams I should have fled


Bridge
You slip inside without a sound
Then root yourself where none are found
You carve your name beneath my skin
And steal the light from deep within

Chorus
Welcome back, old friend of pain
You walk the halls inside my brain
You bloom where broken hopes still lie
Then vanish when I wonder why
And though you never ask to stay
I’m the one who shows the way


Final Chorus
Welcome back, old friend once more
You never knock, just find the door
You echo through my hollow chest
Where dreams once tried to make a nest
And though you never call me yours
It’s me who lets you haunt my soul




Welcome Back

Text:
Verse 1
They march through the ruins, mile after mile,
A city of shadows, a graveyard in style.
Every inch they’re taking is paid with blood,
But the map doesn’t change — it’s just mud over mud.

Pre-Chorus
And the whispers keep saying,
This cost is too high.
When the price of a victory
Is learning how to die.

Chorus
Why go all in for nothing,
Why burn your whole world down?
Why throw your people into fire
Just to claim a dying town?
If your gain is only ruins,
And your losses never end —
Then you’re not fighting for the future,
You’re fighting just to pretend.

(solo)

Verse 2
Steel meets the trenches, the winter hits hard,
Every soldier a number, another broken card.
They push and they push — but the ground doesn’t care,
It swallows the young in the cold, open air.

Pre-Chorus
And the mothers keep asking,
What’s the meaning of this war?
If the dream you’re chasing
Isn’t real anymore.

Chorus
Why go all in for nothing,
Why burn your whole world down?
Why throw your people into fire
Just to claim a dying town?
If your gain is only ruins,
And your losses never end —
Then you’re not fighting for the future,
You’re fighting just to pretend.

Bridge (spoken, soft)
When your strategy is bleeding,
And your logic’s running dry,
You don’t win by pushing harder —
You win by asking why.

(solo)

Final Chorus
Why go all in for nothing,
Why gamble lives away?
History won’t call it glory —
Just another wasted day.
If you trade your sons for rubble,
No banner can defend —
A war that costs the living
More than it ever had to spend.

Outro (spoken, cold, echoing):
Putin…
You’ve crossed the line where power becomes madness.
You’re tearing your own nation apart,
piece by piece,
life by life.

Stop sacrificing your people
for a war that gives nothing back.
Stop turning sons into shadows
for a dream no one believes in anymore.

Putin…
You seem lost in your own darkness.
Stop the bleeding.
Stop the lies.
Stop destroying the very people
you claim to defend.
