(I won’t get tired of telling you back off
Live your life with your idols and those you love
Dispel your arrogance cause I've tamed my own
You turned away when I lost my home)

I won’t get tired of telling you back off
Live your life with your idols and those you love
Dispel your arrogance cause I've tamed my own
You turned away when I lost my home

with your rules and on your terms
Your lips is where the truth’s born 
We could both be light, 
but you wrote me down, down as dark

Reject! Reject! Reject! One more time!

(Now everything is in its place,
What superficial valor is in this face)

Now everything is in its place,
What superficial valor is in this face
I don't need the guilt you've tried to foist
In the stillness of mind, i’ve silenced the noise

I don't owe you anything
I don't owe you… 
anything

To your bother and dismay, 
I’ll be the man who tells you to back off!

if I disappoint again,
remember the line that I shouted above

We could both be light, 
(but you wrote me down)
but you wrote me down, down as dark

Try Lying Awake - Back Off!

Back Off!

Shout !!!

Don't count the number of bites on my wounded body.
I haven't slept for ten nights, listening to my slow heartbeat.
I will remember these sounds for the rest of my life
No one bet on me that I will stay alive 

I will keep in mind 
all these faces, all these eyes

I will keep in mind 
all these faces, all these eyes
I don't sleep at night
Cause night carries their cries

Deep inside your stupid brain, 
dark word sounds like meds
floundering like flies in a
tangled maze of webs
For someone, you’re fiend [Devil], 
for others a pure god 
everyone swore allegiance to you, 
but I did not

exhaustion will make time stop, 
it doesn't care who we are, right now
Right?

small room, alone, betrayal, this is your end

I will keep in mind 
all these faces, all these eyes
I don't sleep at night
Cause night carries their cries
No one can hear me, 
but I don't say anything else
I’d rather feel nothing at all 
Than feel hate, vengeance and cold

Shout out loud
From your throne 
Shout out loud
putrid to the bone

Shout Out Loud

Shout Out Loud (feat. Alex Verenchyck from Detach)

LYRICS

This life won't last forever 
Need to wake up now
Stop feeding your demons
While fears silently prowl

Do you remember your ex-self?
Don’t pretend to be dead or deaf!
Make the right choice of guide
Behind one of them is a trail of blood

Uprooted
Crucified upside down

Uprooted
Crucified upside down

We are not a new species, they will do the same to us

Well-fed, they climb the walls of your skull
Regrets dedicated to a taken soul

Could you believe that such day would ever come?
Not understanding how you fell into the hole

Don't talk, don't listen, don't ask, don't answer
Don't talk, don't listen, don't ask, don't answer

don't answer 
don't answer them

We are not a new species, 
They will do the same,
They will do the same
same to us

UPROOTED

I’m not a legend, not a man who changes the world 
Adhering to my culture, I'm afraid to grow old 
Taking a stand I search for my light 
Time is not on our side 
There is no way back to the normal life 

Killing their own kind 
Losing the mind 

All That you feel 
Everything you loved 

Razed to the ground 
Left to die alone 
You will never find 
You have no more home  

Society for you and me, I'm your toy 
Can be proud now you’re part of this, enjoy 
Like a victim, that's what I believe 
Don't let myself so easily deceived 

I'm not a legend, not a man who change the world 
Adhering to my culture, I'm afraid to grow old 
One step at a thousand days 
On this earth, I found my place 

And now I can stop it 

Save all that I found 
Get out of the ground 
Everyone will be on my side 
And never turn off my light 
I deny your faith 
All that you create 
Whatever you’re imposing us 
You don't deserve my trust 

Fuck you

Legends

I just wanna look into your eyes when you're sobbing on your knees 
You’ve tried to convince me 
That this is all my fucking life like an incurable disease 
You’ve never listened to me!!! 
I want to forget you forever and kill any chance to feel again 
What happened to relationship?
I couldn't help us, this is the end 
Your poison’s in my chest 
Your black crows make their nests 
They fly over my roof 
I want to leave but i can't move 

One Day My Pain’ll
Turn into a bunch of hate  
Too Late! Afraid! 
Why am i feeling the cold again 
My Soul is your Fault 
I've never been so vulnerable 
Everything’s fallen apart I can't control it 

I hope you’ll spend the rest of your days alone 
And you will be so harmed even no one to talk on the phone 
The whole fucking justice’ll find you and you won’t escape from it  
You were always fucking crud the emptiness is what you get 

I allow you too much excess 
I’ve destroyed myself 
I want you to suffer, go fuck in hell! 

Bitch! 
One Day My Pain’ll
Turn into a bunch of hate  
Too Late! Afraid!
Why am i feeling the cold again 
My Soul is your Fault 
I've never been so vulnerable 
Everything’s fallen apart i can't control it 

Let me away i can not stay 
Don't hold my hand and let me in 
I can not stay let me away 
I don't need you, you don't need me
Shit!

Bunch of Hate

So hard to wake up and look at myself
Sitting in four walls as in your own hell
Hate tomorrow and hate today
Take me back cause i don't want this anyway 

So hard to sleep and looking at the ceiling
I need to learn "the art of easing"
Screwed up! fuck! 
I wanna be drunk
It doesn't matter when the sun goes fucking down
Sun goes fucking down!

You're fucking dead smells like shit 
It's distorted face in the mirrors
Dead! just haven’t known yet
I'm not going to unklench my fingers 

I've never been so close
To my complete frustration
I've begun to hate everyone
Do you think you deserve salvation
I've never been so close
to my complete frustration
I've begun to hate everyone

I've begun to hate everyone

I've begun to hate everyone
I think no one will change
Just stay a fucking scum
You are cowardly a slave

You've begun to hate everyone
You think no one will change
Just stay a fucking scum
We are all fucking slaves

I've never been so close
To my complete frustration
I've begun to hate everyone
Do you think you deserve salvation
I've never been so close
To my complete frustration
I've begun to hate everyone

They say!!!! They say stay fucking back 
They say stay fucking back 
They say stay fucking back 
They say stay fucking back

Everyone

I used to like breathing this smoke under the cover of my glass
Feeling of newfound hope for you stays false 
Everything here is designed to prolong our suffering
Stand at the end of this line like me for nothing

Need to save this form of madness 
Need to stay and wait for reaction

Slight euphoria as if you were in your bed 
You’ve felt this ice inside your head 

I wear your favorite color 
Copy your every move 
Hiding beside this cover
Hound suit for a wolf

Life’s already taken care of you and me 
Choose your collar by size and bark WOUF! 

At these empty streets come on barking 
You’ve never had said before 
For these crowded streets come on screaming 
I know what are you looking for 

Forever alone and always sad 
Once again your heart has to be dead 
Find me if you want to know 
Where is your dying soul

Try Lying Awake - NBDY//NOWR (Nobody from Nowhere)

Nothing Makes Me Laugh

When the sun will rise behind your back 
I will attack, i will attack 

So take your position
What you say will be ignored
Shoot to kill a mutual decision 
So much hate your perfect world

Show yourself in all your glory 
You’re not the one here ready to die
Do you know who we are in this story?
We are living in truth but born in a lie

Think, who you are?
Without kings 
Without gods  

There is no place for saviors, nobody hopes to be saved 
I’m knee-deep in my own bile, ready to accept my fate 
A bit more time and you’ll breathe this fog with me  
I'll start so you will add lines to this tragedy

Think, who you are?
Without kings 
Without gods  

When the sun will rise behind your back 
I will attack, i will attack!
To the hole from the bullet in the head
I will attack, i will attack!

Attack!

Nobody wants to be here
Every man for himself
You are ashamed of me
As if you’re not from hell

You Know!
My eyes are getting dark 
My hair is turning gray 
Now is my favorite part
When you start being afraid 

You are blessed by nescience 
It’s in your chest voice of ignorence

No wings, no horns and no balance 

This crown doesn’t suit you 
Like sham fire 
Pay no mind it will pass away 
Now you’re closer to lier 

You will go with them 
And change your name 
Seeking relief from this pain 
Now you are part of their game 

Masses dictate all rules 
Masses dictate all rules 
Masses dictate all rules 

For you

You say yes you require more
But you can’t stop cause it’s never enough 

This crown doesn’t suit you 
Like sham fire 
Pay no mind it will pass away 
Now you’re closer to lier 

Are you ready to see?
Are you ready to smile?
Guess you haven’t done it in a while 

Thing you need to see with the naked eye
Don't believe the truth as well as the lie

Sham Fire

I used to like breathing this smoke under the cover of my glass
Feeling of newfound hope for you stays false 
Everything here is designed to prolong our suffering
Stand at the end of this line like me for nothing

Need to save this form of madness 
Need to stay and wait for reaction

Slight euphoria as if you were in your bed 
You’ve felt this ice inside your head 

I wear your favorite color 
Copy your every move 
Hiding beside this cover
Hound suit for a wolf

Life’s already taken care of you and me 
Choose your collar by size and bark WOUF! 

Bark! Choose your collar by size and bark!

At these empty streets come on barking 
You’ve never had said before 
For these crowded streets come on screaming 
I know what are you looking for 

Forever alone and always sad 
Once again your heart has to be dead 
Find me if you want to know 
Where is your dying soul

NBDY//NOWR

Now I'm just an observer 
Even up close you can't see my face
You’re still searching for meaning 
I like watching your rat’s race 

Life, Life is full of hatred 
We've been satiating it with these years
Those who now ask for love, 
They are drowned in the ocean of own tears 

You beg 
Take me, take me now 
You’re chocking 
In out, in out, in out

You paralyzed and devastated 
What are you trying to explain?
The bridge that is made by you serves to spit into the water from it 

I’ve got into the nightmare
And I wait for you there
We are all equal 
In this lake of decay

I’m not your helper anymore 
Your shadow is the only thing that haunts you - Psycho!
I dissuade myself every time 
Just step over a body and move on 

People are not the same as before 
Don’t open the door, don’t open the door

I’ve got into the nightmare 
And wait for you there 
We are all equal  
In this lake of decay 

No matter who you are 
No matter who I am now 
We won’t be here forever 
We'll be eaten by the crowd
I tell myself it every single day: 
You not okay, I’m not okay, they are not okay 

I’ve got into the nightmare 
And wait for you there 
We are all equal  
In this lake of decay

Not Okay

Will you help me to get out? 
I don’t know this road 
Everything looks the same 
I've driven into the oncoming lane 

I don’t keep the wheel 
And close my eyes 
You are near 
And fear dies 

She's cool 
She smiles
She knows 
That I’m melt 

She said
If you stay with me
We'll make fire
But not to keep warm 
My naysayer 

I get my foot down on the floor
With her I can be sure 
I can't sleep cause of this itchy cold 
My gaze is fixed on the road

Your skin is sugar 
Your voice, and I move on

She said
If you stay with me
We'll make fire
But not to keep warm 
My naysayer 

This flame burns down everything here 
Our way will become bright and clear
