Lyrics:

I’ve lived a Iife with other souls
I’ve dreamed of you all through the night
I’ve lived a life that wasn’t mine
I’ve dug through soil to find the roots
I’ve gone through darkness and despair
I couldn’t see yet it was there

A swath is clearing the obscure
A memory vivid and pure
A ray of light cuts through the clouds
It is so clear and it’s so loud

I’m laying claim to this new day
I’m filled with words you didn’t say
I’d give much more than I could spare
Now i can see once it lays bare
A reaching hand out from beyond
i’ll commit – resolve this bond

To come asunder one last time
I’ll hold your word and you’ll take mine
All moving parts caught in a wake
I’ll own this life that’s mine to make

For too long now
I searched the world for you
For too long now
I’ve lived a life alone
For too long now
i’ve tried to find the one
For too long now
I’ve lived away from home

For too long now
For too long now
For too long now
For too long now

For Too Long

Lyrics:

My head still spinning a cocoon
Silk surrounds me, I feel safe
My mind fights to protect me child from
New stings, wounds, scars

Whenever I feel drawn to you
I perceive this strong bond
I withdraw instead of being brave
To tell what you already know

Now I'm sitting here alone
Even this should be me in this place
Because you never guess
I’m always thinking about you

I am writing these lines down
I could not manage to tell you
You may never guess
I can’t stop thinking about you

My soul was wallowing in self pity
My heart was longing for utopia
Pattern broken by my own hands
Still same stings, new scars

Whenever I felt drawn to you
I perceived this strong bond
All the fictitious times we spent
Not telling you what you already knew

We've been close before
Now far apart
Lose each other
Attract like poles
In space together
Seen by the moon
Fall back into the void
Into my cocoon

Cocoon

Weak Tyrant is a freshly formed five-piece band from Bern/Switzerland. All musicians are/were active in other projects (Posthumanbigbang, Chelsea Deadbeat Combo, Horace, Hot Running Blood) and now find themselves in a new musical genre. Vocals are clean and riffs more melodic. Nevertheless, emotions break through and intensity comes first – it’s simply a different musical language.
