Opinion Leader

this feels like walking with my head on backwards
cause now i try to see the other side of everything i am
and there are not enough chords to play
for telling the whole story now
silently everything has changed
so fast i cannot believe it myself
cause we are the cracks in the pavement
i am fear
the fear of myself
what am i to do?
now it's difficult to foward with my head on backwards
now i try to see it all
all the sides of you and all the things
all the things that dissappear
disappear with me
never look back

We're Off Air
03:36

you seem adrift
out of place
looking for us
what do you wait for?
we cannot find sense for you
now you know they were wrong
shake hands, fake smiles
they don't speak for us
don't believe it all
come here and clean up all this mess you left
don't you know we're off air?
pack up your bags
leave this place
then we'll watch them
walk across water
we have tried, too
find a way out of tv trays
looking for lies?
inside of me there are
none of theirs at all
come here and clean up all this mess you left
don't you know we're off air?

This House Is Empty
05:24
|

when you decided you've been locked in here
what did you expect to find in the other room?
these traps that we have built for someone else
are forcing us to be, are forcing us to be aware
this is all i know
there's so much more we haven't yet explored
inside ourselves lies all we seek
it's impossible to turn away the eye
if there's something wrong with everything you said
you should better be, better be ahead of time
it seems to be a waste of time
to concentrate on our desires
so long i've seen them coming towards us
this is all i know
there's so much more we haven't yet explored
inside ourselves lies all we seek
it's impossible to turn away the eye
and you know we'll arrive
the fog will disappear
can't you see it now?
there
this is all i know
there's so much more we haven't yet explored
inside ourselves lies all we seek
it's impossible to turn away the eye

i'm the furthest from the storm
i thought you could tell by the sources you gain from
i thought i might stop by
but you won't tell a thing
our time has come to end
but i'm not here to think
about the time we spent
for another round
i am here to find a glimpse of you
you've been said to carry all the world for them
and i, i know you never tell
what you have lost in them
i shouldn't ask a thing
about you and him
so what am i doing here?
this will end so soon
shouldn't ask a thing

maybe you're exposed
to a thing you miss the most
and all you've found is not to stay
but you cannot see
it occurs to me
you can make a door appear
open up and run
cause for now you know the way home
we repeat ourseleves
in the way we hurt
open up and run
maybe you'll find our way home
get us out of here
make this door appear
open up and run
for now you know our way home

the circles have been drawn
they already know
amongst us but not here
not ready yet to show
and you may think you know
it's without consequence
and when it comes someday
it all makes sense to you
so save your clever statements for someone else
they will always find its way to open ears
waiting for the dust to settle upon this
the longer we will wait
the shorter the distance
don't you think we know
they seem to never stop to play trinks on us
a splinter in my cup
so may it come today
you save your clever statements for someone else
will it always find its way to open ears?
and you may laugh at us for being strange
for not believing anything
anything
so save your clever statements for someone else
will it always find its way to open ears?
and you may laugh at us for being strange
for not believing anything?
anything.

Open

one foot in front of the other
you're moving towards the edge
i'm not too sure if you know what to expect on the other side
since i can remember you wondered
how it would feel like to be there
i hope you're fine over there
maybe we will meet again

Gift of Reading Palms
03:59
|
|||
|
tasting the daylight through holes in the walls
the pictures and frames will only capture a ghost
so inside of this bunker i feel safe from the air
and get rid of the answers that they want me to hear
and we will wait
and how long will i stay here?
i wish i could tell
if it takes this to stay myself
i will do it again
and we will wait for something to happen
and we will wait for something to happen
and we will wait
the noises i'm hearing sound suspicious at times
and whenever they'll find me
i'm prepared to deny
that the pieces of silver that i've found in the sand
were given to someone to read the palm of my hand
and we will wait for something to happen
and we are scared of something to happen
and we will wait
and we will wait for something to happen
and we are scared of something to happen
and we will wait
wait

Method: Acting
03:49

who tapped the phone?
inside of this we walk alone
and this may be not the end you wished for yourself
you're lifted up and never came back down
you're never here you never make a sound
in here at all
so false in your speech
start practicing now what you preached
before we find out we'll get enough of all we reached
and for some time i wondered why you came
to break them up before they'd start again
we came here to reach out for something else
that came instead
we came here to reach out for something new
to burst in time, we never wondered why
you came here to embrace something else
you've found instead

Backdoors/Trapdoors
07:00
|
|||
|
once we've been told that all that's left is gone
we fell down the stairs and all we found was us
and for some time you're hanging on
the days gone by get swallowed in mistakes
please don't give in
we beg for a sign to make a door appear
we are stuck inbetween these trapdoors to ourselves
and once again they're clinging to the days gone by
got eaten up? they will come for us again
again
and i will know.
