Screams Of Lies
who loves me follows me.
this has always been your fucking belief.
you're too taken by your ego,
to see how, you are on the outside.
I shouldn't believe you
I know that for you it's just a game,
I won't take you, seriously anymore.
RIT:
not in this way, not this time
what you left behind,
it's not a dream, it's just a fact.
Can you hear that?
the screams of your lies.
do you want to kill the truth?
you cannot drown your demons,
if you sell your sins
Now, that you're distant from me,
I can understand what you are
(and) the weight that I carry inside has disappeared
(and) I'm not afraid to do hurt you.
we only have one life
so fucking live it.
we only have one life,
look inside yourself,
embrace it
RIT:
not in this way, not this time
what you left behind,
it's not a dream, it's just a fact.
Can you hear that?
the screams of your lies.
do you want to kill the truth?
you cannot drown your demons,
if you sell your sins

Overwhelmed
tragedy is all you have,
like inhaling the smoke from the cigarette that leaves you
breathless,
you're trapped inside your nightmare.
your words like ropes, are tieding your throat.
save yourself from wandering, find your way and take it.
RIT:
You find yourself broken and you're kneeling
overwhelmed.
you're too exhausted for the long travel,
And you're kneeling
overwhelmed.
how can you see so far ahead,
while you're spending every day on your knees?
are you rotten to the core?
are you failures not enough?
RIT:
You find yourself broken and you're kneeling
overwhelmed.
you're too exhausted for the long travel,
And you're kneeling
overwhelmed.

I Feel Sorry
I wrote some words on a scrap of paper,
i Can’t think of anything that would make it worth the fight.
Stop thinking, it started to make sense.
can you hear the silence?
So, i sing it, loud, I’m not giving up on you
or anyone I know. wake up!
Everything will pass, but not for you,
maybe you feel alive, but dead inside,
Day by day with the same mind,
Same old shit but different day.
Stop thinking, it started to make sense.
There is more to life.
More to life than hate.
You won’t break me,
I feel sorry for you.
No remorse and no respect,
no romance and no regret,
You won’t break me,
I feel sorry for you.

Broken City
What can I ‘see from the outside?
a chemical purple sunset.
wake up every day facing the burden, of this rarefied air.
I need help, to find a way to breathe.
i'm fucking sick and tired of living in This broken city,
it's burning a hole in me that can never be filled.
I'm jaded of these streets.
this city consumes every part of you,
leaving only an empty shell,
it takes away your strength and your dreams.
Pull me out and give me a reason to fight.
This is not the way things should be,
so I refuse to take part in this disease and I stay still on projects in my head.
people's faces are dark,
I see corruption, I see sadness,
the age of tolerance is like coming to an end.
i'm fucking sick and tired of living in This broken city,
it's burning a hole in me that can never be filled.
I'm jaded of these streets.

Behind The Curtains
Show your face to the world.
But instead, you have to fix the mood.
With this front, you're losing respect.
Your time is running out.
Your front is wearing thin.
So how long can you live like this?
I should have seen this
and i did it in my way.
i’m losing patience
I should have seen
RIT:
Time to face all your mistakes.
The curtains opened up,
you're on stage for all to see,
through you.
Do you want to break free,
from all the lies you put in front?
Now take them back.
your identity fading fast,
I don't need a crew to validate myself.
your talk is cheap
and it's going nowhere
RIT:
The curtains opened up,
you're on stage for all to see,
through you.
Time to face all your mistakes.
The curtains opened up,
you're on stage for all to see,
through you.

Petrified
I felt it, like a pang in my heart, or maybe it was just a feeling.
coming home and be crushed by a gloomy atmosphere.
when I saw you, I hadn’t yet figured out,
I couldn't understand, what your eyes, wanted to tell me .
I have seen your tears, I heard your voice and I don't know how I moved toward you.
I was petrified.
Rit:
and you're the one, that will save me from myself,
keep me by your side, and don't let me go, don't let me go.
save me from myself.
the words have always been our salvation,
we've always been able to understand eachother
and I was afraid of losing, our sintony.
I know that I'll never find a person like you, with a soul that blends with mine.
Rit:
and you're the one, that will save me from myself,
keep me by your side, and don't let me go, don't let me go.
save me from myself.

My Stories
I had a lot, just as i lost,
but this doesn't tell you, that I won't change,
sometimes a moment seems so long,
but this doesn't tell you, that I won't change.
RIT:
I had time to reflect,
what follows, will be stories,
where I'll write my name,
and the life that I want to live.
even if I could, and I don't think I would,
know how to change what's my destiny,
I chose to see and hear,
and what I want for me, it's never enough
RIT:
I had time to reflect,
what follows, will be stories,
where I'll write my name,
and the life that I want to live.
how many convictions vain and useless,
when the desire, takes over.
RIT:
I had time to reflect,
what follows, will be stories,
where I'll write my name,
and the life that I wanted to live.
It's too long since I feel this light on my face,
and I realize that if I stay immovable, there will be only my regrets,
Despite this sentence, I smile,
and his weight now, is imperceptible.

Something Personal
maybe no one is able to understand you,
but I'm so tired of this situation.
we can't continue like this, you're living behind your mask.
(‘cause) what I feel right now is making fun of each other.
all your pain, all your excuses, you're a lover of the drama,
that's what I think now.
this is what i think right now.
you still don't understand that you reap what you sow.
so what am i supposed to do? just stand here and take this hatred?
maybe I'm not the right person for you, maybe I'm the wrong person to you.
I’m so tired of this situation,
and it doesn't matter if I'm the one who will pass for an asshole.

Day by Day
cause we live day by day
standing still on ourselves,
without changing anything, pretending to be something we're not.
'cause we live day by day
standing still on ourselves, but this cannot change our goals.
I know it's hard remain true.
when everything fly away.
I know it's hard with the passage of time.
but in the end why we should give up.
we have to cut the ropes that hold us back.
‘cause we live day by day
standing still on ourselves,
without changing anything, pretending to be something we're not.
'cause we live day by day
standing still on ourselves, but this cannot change our goals.
I know it's hard remain true.

False Witness
a loss of feelings
i feel like i'm letting go of everything
friendship ending always in betrayal.
i saw you change throughout the years.
i saw you begin to fall apart.
you are a shadow of who you used to be.
Say what you want
Spit your venom
Spit your condescending words
RIT:
expose you, for all that you are.
the man behind the mask.
you are your own false witness.
and will you ever really let it come out?
a loss of feelings
i feel like i'm letting go of everything
friendship ending always in betrayal.
A negative mind will get you nowhere.
A negative life leads to nowhere
Growing up is clearly too hard for you.
RIT:
expose you, for all that you are.
the man behind the mask.
you are your own false witness.
and will you ever really let it come out?

Symptoms
We run around like headless chickens
Blame each other, blame the others
The symptoms of bigger problems
Everybody thinks they’ve got the answers
Just taking and never giving back
Don't you know what's right and wrong?
do you just need somewhere to belong?
i’ve got one life and i'm never gonna live a lie
None of my questions have answers yet.
I'm not deterred from asking them
Would you turn it up so I can hear?
I’m not deterred from asking them
We put the power in the hands of the wealthy
They stole what we gave and feathered their own nests
The symptoms of bigger problems
what's going on?
Don't you know what's right and wrong?
do you just need somewhere to belong?
i’ve got one life and i'm never gonna live a lie
None of my questions have answers yet.
I'm not deterred from asking them
Would you turn it up so I can hear?
