Culture

Having seen what you can do to me
Having felt their gaze follow me
Whispers, whispers, whispers
It’s like a voice in the back of your head
You’re not even aware
Overcoming reason
Since forever
We used to feel safe
We used to belong
We used to find meaning
We had a future
We were creative
My ideas are gone
My dreams are dead
I've ran out of things to say
But I guess you'd like me this way
All that is left; what's still here
The phobia and the fear
I'm afraid to live a life
I'm afraid to walk outside
They're staring at me
They're staring at me
And I'm so fucking weak
There's nothing left
I'm screaming out
For you to help (help)
But there is nothing left
No one left
Everyone left
NO ONE LEFT

Phobia
02:10
|
|||
The discomfort
I get so nervous
When i'm around
I start shaking
Idle hands
I want to leave
Rather stay home
Rather be alone
Shut the window
Close the curtain
Fucking stay there
I’m so sorry
I lost my head
I filled my head with all these things
concerning the right way to be
But you, you’re so careless, so loud
I digress
I hate myself
Fucking stay there.

Misgiving
02:47
|
|||
Your morals hang by a thread
So innocent in all that death
Shielded and naive
We close your eyes
To the impending doom
Won't you read the signs
Culture taught us wrong
We had the wrong plan
Last days of Rome
Oh how could we
Read it out so wrong
The warmest winter
The death of bees
Free from pain
It does not scream
So innocent in all that death
In all that destruction
You never needed proof
Even if the evidence was undeniable and true
You would find a way to dismiss it
To live in your bubble
Not just comfort for your ignorant self
No you're so calculating
Oh you're so rational
BUT IT DOES AFFECT YOU

Autoimmune
03:19
|
|||
A fixation in my head
And I dream and I dread
You coward pretend
A deficiency, a deficiency
You coward pretend
Nothing is and never be
You coward pretend
Nothing is and never be
A fixation in my head
And I dream and I dread
20 hours my skin is red
You coward pretend
A million things to say
All this pressure
I am drowning in
An open wound
Don’t let them in
You’ve let me in
When your body is attacking itself
Every atom is misinformed
|

Cogs
02:10
|
|||
A system of slavery and addiction
When a controlled substance is sustenance
You're satisfied
You had your fix
You're dead to me
You live in a bubble
A synthesised reality
The machine moves on
You're just a cog
Can't stop it from turning
Head won't stop spinning
It lays waste to all you never loved
And you're oblivious, blue eyed and ignorant
The machine is all we'll ever need
It’s towards loneliness I strive
The machine is all we’ll ever need
Happiness out of a tube
Emptiness inside of you
Success is only for those who can walk alone
We can't all stand on our own
And it makes me
It makes sense to me
And it makes me
It makes me want to end it all

Agora
04:05
|
|||
A half-remembered dream
To remind me of something
A group of friends
In a public place
To pretend
That we didn't know
To act as if strangers
To one another
A half-remembered dream
To remind me of something
To know what it's like
To be treated as a stranger
In a place
Where you're supposed to feel safe
We didn't get to choose
We didn't get to choose
Society
We didn't get to choose
We didn't get to choose
What to do with our time
How to live our lives
We didn't get to choose
Education and work
We didn’t get to choose
A half-remembered dream
To remind me of something
We are strangers to each other
We are strangers to ourselves

Unsociable
02:09
|
|||
Cover me in make up
I want to drown my sorrow
I want to pretend like
To express an emotion
Alexithymia
Develop empathy
And acceptance
Sensitivity
To tolerate
And live in harmony
On the outside
And looking in
Social interactions
Ironic detachment
Shallow communication
Pretend to pretend to pretend
Cover me in make up
I want to drown my sorrow
I want to pretend like it never happened
Like it’s all plastic, all artificial
Like it’s all plastic, all fucking perfect.

Within, Without
03:36
|
|||
We were left alone
To fend for ourselves
Inside our minds grew
The restlessness
We tried to recover
We tried to adapt
And find our way back
But still we got pushed out
We were left to decide
To live within or to live without
There is nothing for us here
We must find our own sun
To feel infinite
Complete detachment
It would be like no one even knew
We were ever here
They are swimming in a great vast ocean
We are the giants, running at the bottom
Watching the people at the surface
They are lost in communication problems
We were never here.

Contortion
02:18
|
|||
Nu går mitt hjärta sönder
Och det gör inte ont
Men jag vet att det är sönder
För jag vet att det är trasigt
Därför att det känns trasigt
Och det är svårt att svälja
(My heart is breaking
And it doesn’t hurt
But I know that it’s broken
Because it feels broken
And it’s hard to swallow)
I want to cry
But I can't
My face squeezes into that
Contortion
But no tears
I need tears
To tear me in two
And let this nightmare escape

Safe
02:36
|
|||
I used to feel safe
Inside my cage
At least from the inside,
I could watch the others shake.
While i sat there
Unshaken
Now i'm afraid of fear
So sick of being scared
I can't walk around my loose ends
Nothing can save me, dear
I can't stop this
I can't pretend anymore
I’m afraid of years to come
Because I’ll probably spend them alone
However
I don’t ask you to change
All i want
Is for you to see
See things my way,
This once, this one time
And to understand
Let there be room for me
You used to feel safe
Outside my cage
At least from the outside
You could watch me

Feral Houses
03:32
|
|||
Traces of what we were
Traces of what we create
It would be like as if
No one even knew
We were ever here...
...but the memories
are mine to keep.

Resignation
02:39
|
|||
I won’t silently surrender
I'm letting you know
We're not friends
Anymore
You dream
And you fantasise
And I
I organise
You live life
And I plan mine
How fitting
This is
These tears
Tear
And I'm left in excuse of
The inexcusable
I won't call you
I won't be in your life
You kept quiet
“It’s for the best”
This is the end
I'm letting you know
We're not friends
Anymore
I'm giving up
I'm letting you know
I’m giving up
We're not friends
Anymore
Communication is the hardest thing
And I'm afraid you kept most of it
Within
And now I am
Without
A friend
