Another Monday morning Don’t wanna work - I need some sleep Life might be hard and life might be fun But it certainly isn’t cheap. My motivation: make a livin’ Keep the balance with what I'm givin’ But when what I'm givin’ is my time No sum could come up with what is mine Can you relate, can you relate? With this song full of hate Can you relate, can you relate? With this song full of hate Can you relate? I’ve become so bitter, I’ve been so alive I’m stuck in the past, and my life is a lie The explanations I give to myself Keeps me calm and from killing myself Every second of every second dream Reminds me of what my life could have been And I am so close to going insane And nothing but memories will remain Can you relate, can you relate? With this song full of hate Can you relate, can you relate? With this song full of hate Can you relate? And a blast From the past Made me realize at last The teenage years are finally over - and what is done is done You're a grown-up now - you're a grown-up now Now start to act like one You're grown up now - you're grown up now Now start to act like one Can you relate, can you relate? With this song full of hate Can you relate, can you relate? With this song full of hate Can you relate?

Everyone is guilty Guilty just as me Everyone is guilty as part of Our society See, I told you I’m not breaking And I will not back down The goal - not to show weakness Hold the fort and not the town And I never paid my dues All I do is sing the blues And I never paid my dues All I do is sing the blues It’s not a win-win situation At least not for you I will get my bonus And there’s nothing you can do To keep your job or keep your house I´m the cat – you’re just the mouse To keep your job or keep your house I´m the cat – you’re just the mouse And I never paid my dues All I do is sing the blues And I never paid my dues All I do is sing the blues Our everyday life Is bound by laws But when we talk about economy It’s total anarchy We trusted non-existing morals To beat the oh-so-human greed And now it’s pretty obvious We didn’t get what we need But we got what we deserved We got what we deserved We got what we deserved

This just might be a warning This just isn’t our fault This just might be a warning This just isn’t our fault Here we go When everything turns against you And everyone knows just why Everyone knows what to do And you won’t even try To understand, to empathise He knows the truth but he denies His guilt and his visions Our future has been circumcised This just might be a warning This just isn’t our fault This just might be a warning This just isn’t our fault Can it get any better? Without drastic changes Didn’t know it was coming? Cause I knew it for ages This just might be a warning This just isn’t our fault This just might be a warning This just isn’t our fault Do I have a solution? – No! I don’t know what to do Do I know better? – No! Not better than you do It will get worse, better deal with it now It will get worse, better live with it now It will get worse, better deal with it now It will get worse, better live with it now

We Forget 03:00
Remember last year Remember years ago Remember all you’ve ever known Now take the right part of it How could you ever forget? Everything’s important I know that We get angry We tend to speak our minds But we forget all the time I don’t know why we forget It’s just something that we do I don’t know why we forget I forget but so do you We forgive, not cause we want to But because we can I forget, because I have to Because that’s who I am We get angry We tend to speak our minds But we forget all the time I don’t know why we forget It’s just something that we do I don’t know why we forget I forget but so do you I don’t know why I did forget It's just something that I did So how can we choose and decide I know something isn’t right Our system is flawed by design Our system is flawed by design Our system is flawed by design Accept your situation Like I did mine I don’t know why we forget It’s just something that we do I don’t know why we forget I forget but so do you

That One 02:55
You’re fading away Got nothing to say You’re fading away We’re not getting ahead With what is said We’re standing still instead He’s the one to hold you when you cry He’s the one to hold you when you die He’s the one to shake your hand when you lie That one, that one Will be relieved when it’s done That one, that one Will still grieve when you’re gone When you’re gone No one listens to what that you say You get accused, anyway I don’t (really) care about how you roll You never had a chance with me at all He’s the one to hold you when you cry He’s the one to hold you when you die He’s the one to shake your hand when you lie That one, that one Will be relieved when it’s done That one, that one Will still grieve when you’re gone That one, that one Will be relieved when it’s done That one, that one Will still grieve when you’re gone It’s all over now It’s all over now It’s all over now It’s fuckin’ over now It’s all over now The face of our problems is now gone It’s not all over now Cause the problems they live on That one, that one Is just the better solution That one, that one Is just the better solution Solution

Ordinary Me 03:25
Basically, You tried to invent Something new, but in the end All you did Was sit around And enjoy yourself And enjoy yourself As long as you can As long as you can As long as you can As long as you can Ordinary You don’t want to be Ordinary Just like me I failed to Impress you I’ll stop to Harass you I made a point By failing all the way At least I don’t need to Tell myself every day How good I am At everything And try to be different Just to be different Ordinary You don't want to be Ordinary Just like me I failed to Impress you I’ll stop to Harass you You wanted to be different You wanted to be different Cause all you wanted was Not to be, not to be Ordinary just like me

I am the state, I am your fate I am your dream and nightmare I am the law, I am the war I am a weapon, why would I care The day you told your lies Was the day I realized That we could believe In almost anything Believe it or not Is the option you got The day that you were born So decide on your own Believe in Believe in me Not to believe Believe in me Believe in Believe in me Not to believe Believe in me I am the state, I am your fate I am your dream and nightmare I am the law, I am the war I am a weapon - Why would I care? So please tell me That you won’t let Someone else decide for you Not even me Educate yourself Knowledge is the key That you have to know Believe in Believe in me Not to believe Believe in me Believe in Believe in me Not to believe Believe in me

An open letter that you'll never read Or even get to know what it is about Still it should be better Cause those aren't My best manners When I scream and shout And I did scream and shout a lot About my little world And I did scream and shout a lot About my distrust in god We’ve got great expectations Great expectations In this new generation New generation We’ve got great expectations Great expectations In this new generation New generation Hard to satisfy easy to accept Cause of the low bar that was set So easily with so much care I knew it wasn’t leading anywhere We’ve got great expectations Great expectations In this new generation New generation We’ve got great expectations Great expectations In this new generation New generation I was scared shitless - and now it’s okay I was scared shitless - and it didn’t go away I was scared shitless – didn’t know what to do I was scared shitless - and you should have been too We’ve got great expectations Great expectations In this new generation New generation We’ve got great expectations Great expectations In this new generation New generation

When falling is so easy The hardest thing is rising up Or masquerading the whole fact That you came from the top And so failing is so easy It’s impossible to succeed It’s not easy to maintain all the things That we think that we need And like a phoenix from the ashes We will rise again And again, and again, and again Like a phoenix from the ashes We will rise again And again, and again, and again So while we discuss it all once more I see her saying what we need to do But all I hear is tactics for Her own benefits Measuring with different standards And the future in the eyes How she handled these decisions Was not a big surprise And like a phoenix from the ashes We will rise again And again, and again, and again Like a phoenix from the ashes We will rise again And again, and again, and again When falling is so easy The convenient thing is falling down Never knowing what The day would bring Cause failing is so easy There’s nothing to expect Use this power To overcome the past And resurrect Resurrect Resurrect

It’s not a crime to set a friend straight But it’s a crime to realize to late What you did to yourself This is just a cry for help So I keep on doing what I do My career suicide... So I keep on doing what I do Cause I think it should be right You’re a friend, you’re a father You’re a puppy, you’re a dog And to a certain degree you do rock You’re a friend, you’re a father You‘re a puppy, you’re a dog And to a certain degree you do rock I think it’s hard to trust in myself I betrayed everyone around And my path is leading to hell It’s not as bad as it sounds You’re a friend, you’re a father You’re a puppy, you’re a dog And to a certain degree you do rock You’re a friend, you’re a father You‘re a puppy, you’re a dog And to a certain degree you do rock Maybe then one day I will set you straight Maybe then one day I will get things made I hope that on that day Everything will end up okay And the trouble will go away With every word that I say But you wouldn’t understand it Your accusations would just blend in with The typical ending of a friendship And the headache triggered by a bad trip You’re still a friend, you’re a father You’re a puppy, you’re a dog And to a certain degree you do rock You’re still a friend, you’re a father You‘re a puppy, you’re a dog And to a certain degree you do rock

Dear Mister Minister When did you get so sinister Everyone’s a criminal in your eyes No one is innocent Found myself living in This land Of murderers, thieves and terrorists But you tell everyone That they are what they’ll become You self-fullfill the prophecy In your eyes In your eyes There is this fear This fear of disguise The fear in your eyes In your eyes Is why you are You are out of control You are out of control Dear Mister Minister Time machine set on ‘84 But so much worse than before What’s your idea of our futures Build Detention-Centers And go for the kill In your eyes In your eyes There is this fear This fear of disguise The fear in your eyes In your eyes Is why you are You are out of control You are out of control Am I on your list now Did I end up on it On it somehow You’re accountable for this And once again Ignorance is bliss It’s all in your head All in your head All in your head All in your head This fear in your head

Hey Hey, this is me Chocking on this since 2003 In case you forgot That to me and you it meant a lot I lost something that year Something I don’t wanna hear Me singing all over again Seems like I lost my masterplan And it won’t come back again And it won’t come back again and I won’t go back again No I won’t go back again Remember when we had that dream And we once fought to make it real Even though we already knew It was way past what we could do I lost something that year Something I don’t wanna hear Me singing all over again Seems like I lost my masterplan And it won’t come back again And it won’t come back again and I won’t go back again No I won’t go back again Did you forget, did you forget What an easy life we had Did you forget, did you forget When black and white turned into that Endless black When black and white turned into that

Eco-comical 01:54
For years you’ve been making profits You collected everyone’s deeds You’ve been the devil’s advocate You deny the connections You deny your own actions You are the devil’s advocate Now you can drown in your own soil And if you drag me down Down to the ground I'll still be around Now you can drown in your own soil And if you drag me down Down to the ground I'll still be around Economically speaking You’re the disaster You’re the monster that we’re after Hope and resignation Are fragile companions You fuck the world we’re just the minions Now you can drown in your own soil And if you drag me down Down to the ground I'll still be around Now you can drown in your own soil And if you drag me down Down to the ground I'll still be around Unlike you - cause of what you do We need to get rid of you Unlike you - cause of what you do We need to get rid of you

Could you please explain Why some memories remain And sometimes I don’t know What I did the day before They say: Life is the moments you remember I don’t remember much I hear me saying: You can't live forever Always stay in touch with yourself So make this day, a day to remember This day, this week, this month, this year And certainly this life, forget to be at strife Cause it is the only one you’ll have Make this day a day to remember Make every day a day to remember These are days that make you remember The good times and the bad Let’s just hope there are more memories Of the good times that you had That’s the way to live your life Don’t let the bad times take control Let’s make it the way that you won't regret A single day when you are dead So make this day, a day to remember This day, this week, this month, this year And certainly this life, forget to be at strife Cause it is the only one you’ll have Make this day a day to remember Make every day a day to remember Unlikely the truth is That’s easier said than done Life is hard - struggle - Try to keep it fun Forget you’re feeling old Forget what I told you Make every day A day to remember Make every day A day to remember Every day A day to remember

I will never know, how it feels to you What satisfaction's like, from your view Low expectations had it’s way with me Both a blessing and a curse - you see I'm living in the fast lane My songs sound all the same Not a song that really makes you smile Music changing our lives While we are having fun Don't ever forget to let me Know when you’re done I will never know, how it feels to you What satisfaction's like, from your view Low expectations had it’s way with me Both a blessing and a curse - you see I don’t expect much And I usually Settle for less It’s my way of life It’s how I progress Cause it’s sometimes okay To settle for less I will never know how it feels I will never know how it feels
