There’s something weird
And I don’t know what
I really like you
But that’s enough
Don’t you get the difference
My needs equal your pocket money
You make no difference
Sometimes that’s a quality
And you draw a circle
You don’t want us inside
You talk like my uncle or my dad
You’re mister advice
You’re like my uncle or my dad
You’re mister advice
A talent without humility is nothing
Please stop pretending you know everything about anything
And you draw a circle
You don’t want us inside
You talk like my uncle or my dad
You’re mister advice
You’re like my uncle or my dad
You’re mister advice
A talent without humility is nothing
You can’t pretend to know everything about anything
Friends are made for caring and sharing
What I don’t... have enough balls to shout
I hope you won’t... ever hear me out
Now I’m swearing... I’ll always sing it
This kind of feeling... already scares me
Friends are made for caring and sharing

I’m trapped in a golden cage
Too far to feel concerned about this growing pain
The view is blurry from above
But now the shit is getting closer
It doesn’t help me to know how to chase this guilty feeling
It doesn’t help me find out how to turn a deaf ear again
This is no question of ignorance
We’re crawling in information here
As hard as anyone’s confession
I thank my friends who accept the mission
It doesn’t help me to know how to chase this guilty feeling
It doesn’t help me find out how to turn a deaf ear again

I’ve never been good at breakouts
I barely did this myself once
Fingers crossed for glory hopes
Acting only for the cause
I still remember that evening
Tears held back and rain falling
We even weren’t all there to fire you from the band
We’ll never lower the arms
We will stick to what we’ve got
The journey is the reward
You’ll never understand that
Your ego’s under attack
You don’t know how to react
I wrote you this goodbye anthem
I hope you’re not too far to hear it
These are a bunch of sentences aimed at a friend or so-called dick
I don’t wanna change anybody ‘cause some did try to change me
But it’s your fault if it’s over
You can’t betray a betrayer
We’ll never lower the arms
We will stick to what we’ve got
The journey is the reward
You’ll never understand that
Your ego’s under attack
You don’t know how to react

Are you trying the best you can to keep discovering new sound?
Our content provided on demand might be a way to solve your problem
Here in your city
Close to your home
There is a band who’s rehearsing
Here in your city
Next to your job
There’s a show you are missing
Gimme more, gimme more, gimme more sound
Seems like it’s free of charge today
Gimme more, gimme more, gimme more sound
You wouldn’t buy it anyway
Gimme more, gimme more, gimme more sound

The same old shit mixed with new as well

Dead Pixels

Enlarge your vision because we’re on the side
Enlightenment forgot us all
Would you support a team that always loses?
Don’t you support a team that always loses?
In my opinion we are a kind of scars
A few dead pixels in the background
I really hope that you know what you’re losing
I hope that you know what you’re losing
Like a fly on your HD screen
Think twice when you squash it
And when we disappear
You won’t even notice
Do you prefer watching?
Do we make you laugh?
At least we’re trying
You could help us out
Caring for who’s behind and always help them
Caring for who’s behind and always help them
We’re science-fiction
We’re shooting stars
A few dead pixels in the background
I really hope that you know what you’re losing
I hope that you know what you’re losing
A fucking fly on your HD screen
Think twice when you squash it
And when we disappear
You won’t even notice

Will you make some sense to those past events
Nothing ever seems to bore you
Nothing ever seems to frighten you
Who am I turning into?
You work all day for no reason
You surely miss some vacation
A single life is not enough
Where can I buy some time to spend?
Time... lack of time is a good place to hide
You work all day for no reason
You surely miss some vacation
A single life is not enough
Where can I buy some time to spend?

It's lying inside of me
I carry it everyday
One false step and in a second I would die
Just like hundreds of friends of mine
I'm feeling secure
I don't need help
I can't tell if i'm sure if I'd really give my life
Just like thousands of friends of mine
A new addiction and then what's coming next?
I can deal with fire
I can deal with fire
Counting on me you promised me to death
As far as I remember
I can deal with fire
I can deal with fire
It's always been like this
It still goes on like this
It always ends up like the second I would die
Among hundreds of friends of mine
Collecting addictions to the point of no return
I don't care 'cause in a second I will die
Among thousands of friends of mine
A new sensation and then what's coming next?
I can deal with fire
I can deal with fire
Counting on me you promised me to death
As far as I remember
I can deal with fire
I can deal with fire

Unbelieve

Am I so?
Am I so old?
That I can’t handle it
Handle the microphone
I’m getting bored
By my own words
By my own chords
I just can’t
I can’t stand
The way I’ve got no talent
It’s a shame
After ten years
This lack of comfidence
Let’s unbelieve almost everything that’s told
Unbelieve me
Unbelieve them
Let’s unbelieve almost everything that’s told
Turn back the things the way they were when we were young
I know
I know what I need
I need no more questioning
It comes and goes
In between phases of believing
Let’s unbelieve almost everything that’s told
Unbelieve me
Unbelieve them
Let’s unbelieve almost everything that’s told
Turn back the things the way they were when we were young

Fiddling The Figures
03:45

Can’t tell why you’re feeling fine
As you are starting the month without a dime
Is it a good way to react
When everything slides out from its path
We just want to help you through this
But you don’t mind
Your pride is a treasure you keep
You dig your own grave not leading your life
You’ve been fiddling the figures for much too long
You’ll never admit it
About the amount of months you’ve spent on the dole
You’re gonna regret it
We will never have faith in you at all
Yes you do deserve it
And as usual we’ll go through this
You will never see the end of it ‘til the next round
In a certain way
We are all like this
Chained to our fate
Lying about numbers
How are we supposed to react
When we all slide out from our path
We just want to help you through this
But you don’t mind
Your pride is a treasure you keep
You dig your own grave not leading your life
You’ve been fiddling the figures for much too long
You’ll never admit it
About the amount of months you’ve spent on the dole
You’re gonna regret it
We will never have faith in you at all
Yes you do deserve it
And as usual we’ll go through this
You will never see the end of it before you die
