So take a deep breath, Mother Earth. This will all be over soon.
We'll relieve you of this burden.
We're feeding on our own existence, as easily as on our morning cereal. So how could I profoundly scream (you’ll hear me scream) a single word? Or feel a glimpse of heartfelt pride for something, someone never changed, from ever since we've walked this earth. Inherited to cultivate, but we incinerate our co-existence. So we could live In harmony.
Are we so eager to prosper that we lost sight? Are we so full of ourselves that we close our eyes? How can we consider ourselves the higher kind, while in fact we belong amongst parasites? We should differ from the innocent in choise, but yet we take all the wrong ones and leave each other none. So we all bare the teethmarks while we whipe our chins from each other’s blood.
So take a deep breath, Mother Earth. This will all be over soon. We should love ourselves so well, but we've nearly killed ourselves. And we should know ourselves so well, but we've nearly killed ourselves.

Familiar Strangers

I’m tired of walking through these hallways, shaking hands with familiar strangers. They’re passing by on empty days, they’re chasing dreams I’ll never have. And I could easily live without…
But in growing older day by day, the dreams I have are peeled away. Like flakes of skin until it hurts like hell. It hurts like hell. And they are lost without a purpose. And this torn that is stuck in my head has grown to be a part of me. I’m in a constant state of discontent. Worn out by the weight of this disappointment. There’s a tune in my head that resonates. I hear the chords to a song that will never be heard, I hear the words that might never be screamed. And somewhere I still remember how it could all fit together, how we’d all feel the same. And we’re all to blame.
And I no longer feel like we all feel the same. I feel we’re all to blame. Now there’s this distance as large as life between myself and I that never felt closer. So close that I can touch it. And I can’t hold it back, it’s stronger than me. I feel a loner in these hallways among strangers I spend half my life with. Finding purpose in empty dreams that I can not relate to. So I'm thinking of times when my dreams were ahead. And I didn’t have to look back all the time. Maybe I didn’t live, didn’t live fast enough to catch up with the man I intended to be. And I’m stuck with a me who came but as far as a “once could be”.

Lost at Sea

This land on which I once felt home, has lost its soul and visions. Filled with ruins of lost ideals and ashes covering tolerance. When every dialogue has a reference in memory, they're in the end just blindfolded perceptions, seen trough our glasses of the past. But at least they suit this empty shell.
Our greatest difference is indifference. To feel the urge to give a fuck. And we don't claim to be the visionairs, but at least we don't neglect to shape opinions.
Looking at the shoreline, I try to think of things that are worth to strife for. But I can no longer relate to this. I've never felt more lost than at home.
