Backwards 04:40
How can you remain so cold when people around burn their hearts out by standing their ground? How can you be so damn blind to our Whole world you leave behind Living just backwards? They say "each on his own" They believe there's only their "right" and other man's "wrong". They teach you to think you're alone They smile with dead eyes waiting for all rules to be gone in our world that lives just backwards. How can you remain so numb when people are gone, Lost in woods, one by one, dead by the dawn? How can you be so damn blind to our Whole world you leave behind Living just backwards?

Hello. Goodbye. Come by my side. Don’t even try. I see you there But I don’t care. Go straight to hell. Behind my wall of nothing I can stay as long as I want to, How about you? You do see me that way too, No doubt, no gloom, Don’t you?
3.
Remember the way we were close? We thought we would stay till the end. Thousands of stories and oaths, Maybe I should forget them. I don't want to blame you, But I really cannot Figure out what I've done – You went off and shut down. How to keep on living If I still have a feeling I've got fooled around And you're the one who let down. Remember how we used to laugh At people who turn into ghosts The moment they found another love? Well, you did the same and got lost. I don't want to blame you, But I really cannot Figure out what I've done – You went off and shut down.

Am I lonely? Yeah, I’m lonely. But that’s on me. Yeah, that’s on me. As I am looking for my place And I am fearing to burn How can I do all those mistakes How can I make them all my own And while world crumbles and collapses How can I stand my ground still How can I ever grab my chance If I'm not sure I ever will Can you hear me? Can you see me? Do you know me? I don’t know me. As I am looking for my place And I am fearing to burn How can I do all those mistakes How can I make them all my own And while world crumbles and collapses How can I stand my ground still How can I ever grab my chance If I'm not sure I ever will

Clock is ticking the time away What did I know and what did I feel? How did I come to this point of me When I'm a stranger for all that I say? Regardlessly, empty Feeling like drowning Feeling like nothing Yet it is strangling and yet it is hurting How can I even find a way Out? Being a stranger to myself and Making a damage, enlarging a hollow Vanishing feelings and thoughts till the end So that I'd never have to follow Me Regardlessly, empty Feeling like drowning Feeling like nothing Yet it is strangling and yet it is hurting How can I even find a way Out? Regardlessly, empty Feeling like drowning Feeling like nothing Yet it is strangling and yet it is hurting How can I even find a way Out?

Patience 03:45
How do I live through it all? I can take this no more. I would leave, shut the door, If it wasn't for all of the patience That grows inside my soul Every day and night. Hold on, Hold with me, Hold me tight. And I know I should wait, But I don't know what for All this despair and hate Has to come from my core. I'll trade them for my patience That grows inside my soul Every day and night. Hold on, Hold with me, Hold me tight.

Am I Hostile 03:26
While we are here, Won’t you let me know How can I live on with Feels that move me along With chains and the keepers That I create for myself Within the deeps of my soul. So what can you say Am I hostile to the world? Or that's just a lie Attempt to go and hide? From everything that I see From all that brings tomorrow From every day that I follow Fake to-the-bone morality How do I betray my demons Not after all they gave me I know I said I won’t make it long Yet I’m still here with Feels that move me along With chains and the keepers That I create for myself Within the deeps of my soul. So what can you say Am I hostile to the world?

Залишити душу у сотнях сердець Осяйнути сонцем, зійти нанівець Змінити назавжди увесь плин життя І жити, боротись, хоч серця биттям І бачити зорі далеких світів В долонях дитячих малих світлячків Плекати всі мрії і бути як йде Ще ж часу багато, та чи він в нас є?
9.
Мушу йти я Мені шкода Я палаю Спливає час, немов вода Спливає час, немов вода Іскрой вільной в небо відлечу Сумнівів не маю, ані розпачу Власний я собі торую шлях Житиму завжди у твоїх піснях Власний я собі торую шлях Житиму завжди у твоїх піснях
