Oceans Have No Memory

Give me enough time
And you’ll be swept away
You have built your casket on your own
Now i’ll hammer all the nails
Your tendency to self-destruction
Will lead you to the day
When i’ll push just a little further
And help you finish what you’ve started
Gravity will do the rest
You have put me to the test
I’ll strike a lightning to your mast
And your ship will be left alone for the sea to digest
Don’t pretend you’re saving me
Oceans have no memory
Tombstones will all crumble
And turn to fine dust in the wind

Anesthetized

I hear the growing noise
Of bombs crashing to the ground
Other babies pile up toys while
I wish i could be safe and sound
It’s hard to put it into words
All the helplessness and gore
They are bombing hospitals
That’s when humanity goes wrong
Yet another genocide
After all we’ve had, we haven’t learned
WE HAVE
Anesthetized our compassion
anesthetized all the pain
anesthetized our reaction
interest burdens the brain
anesthetized by consumption
anesthetized everything
will we ever learn our lesson
before we all die in vain?
Guided by profit, your path is misleading
It's built upon lies that were told to us all
Year after year all these wounds are still bleeding
They're justified by phantoms from above
YOU SHALL FALL!

To Have Or To Be

I tell you it's absurd, but yet it's in our blood
to want more than we need, and not to give a fuck
about the consequences of a life of greed
surrounded by abundance, it's getting hard to see
Possession leads people to treat everything as objects
illusions of property of love caused by love for property
there's no ending, there's no ending
To our naivety
(I don't give a shit, i'll buy that new smartphone)
does it have to be this way?
(i think i’ll bring my kids with me at the shopping mall)
All this viral idiocy
(my friends will think i'm lame if i don't buy that too)
comes from all these futile things we call our needs
to have seems to be more important than to be
and i'm guessing that it's true
what Eddie Vedder said about society
and Erich Fromm was right, when he wrote about ourselves
is it late to get things straight?
maybe, but if there is a solution
it lies in education

[Look at the gold
Look at the clouds
Look at the lord
Look at]
We were brought up for the truth
that made us fall into a groove
From which we can't go out
Where they keep pushing us down
Help me, take this
Take the lighter and piss
Save me, burn it
No one has to see this shit
When they will stop fighting for the holy war
Our victims will be blessed and remembered
And nobody will ever say that it was right
but now my hands tighten the kite
[Above their rules]
Thinking about the people who die of hunger
And those places where people live with their burdens
Why don't we rip off this double face?
I believe that it's not enough to just pray
I want to be born attached to no faith
I want to be born full of rights
I want to be born spreading smiles instead of rage
I don't want to be born again if life is a strife

Trainwrecks
Waiting
For buses
Complaining
No answers
No future
Just hopes and
Illusions
Memories faint
Left in the dark
One light remains
Cellphone in hand
Here is the sand
Dip in your toe
It's made out of pixels
Our driving licence's
The will to improve
But we'll all crash soon
If we don't realize we can't go into reverse
And learn to use our brakes
And our steering wheel
To vivify this depraved society
And to reject all the evil that we can
To many it seems just like a dream
Others are too busy posting on instagram
But there are people who willingly fight
Instead of choosing to succumb
In front of this massive waste of time
And to be flattened by this routine
With an iron soul

When talking about fortune and fate
We usually intend to find a reason
To things that happen to us every day
Good and bad, inequities and treasons
Focusing on what is out of hand
Can catapult you inside those helpless visions
Of man, a wreck without a written plan
Who’s got to make do with what he was given
But is this really a reason not to want better from yourself?
People forget what real luck is
It’s when a chance meets preparation
there’s no such thing as meant to be
shit happens, we know, but do your best
there are countless things about yourself
that you can change, so make a step
no matter if it works or not
the moment you lose is when you stop
Tidal waves of despair are crushing
onto the shores of my strong will
the constant struggle not to go down,
to stay afloat, to keep from drowning
you never will as long as you don’t let the water in
we are nothing! we are nothing!
we are nothing but a small grain
one day we’re here, next day we’re gone
and this is all we have in common
but even facing this harsh horizon
is it really a reason not to be the best that you can be?
