Essence of Being

I do not get the rules of this fucking game.
If I suddenly die will anything change?
The existance will continue its ugly way
Its ugly eternal way into immense nothingness
Existence
what's the point everything to exist
life is vulgar and motley thing
you pray for your lives
but do they have any price?
In this fake world filled with lies
Is there any sense to stay alive?
To compete with other insects
In mindless race for no prize?
If there was a god, the all loving father
Who could see his children' suffer and tears
It would take him a moment to wave his hand
So everything forevermore disappear
In this fake world filled with lies
Is there any sense to stay alive?
To compete with other insects
In mindless race for no prize?
Is it real or it's just a mirrage?
In front of me long forgotten image
I observe as bloom and darken
Fragile flowers of flesh
If there was a god, the all loving father
Who could see his children' suffer and tears
It would take him a moment to wave his hand
So everything forevermore disappear

Swamp of Sorrow
03:40

On coarse road of life its easy to stay on wayside
No alliance matters, no society has its price
There is no broom that can hold inside every twig
And one is always easier to break
Everyday I keep doing at least something
In hope that someday it will make any sense
I dream to feel anything but endless void
And I've got nothing but this forlorn faith
Has everything been always like that?
What jail is darker than your own heart?
What warden is more strict to you than yourself?
The world has died but this was only noticed by you
Day by day I get better only in hatred to myself
Looking for happiness I stumbled and broke my legs
Once got stucked in marsh means you'll stay here forever
And will never be able to leave the swamp of sorrow

Indulgence
04:48
|

Bowed down, they put their gifts on the altar of hypocrisy,
Trying to bribe the one who forgives those who contrite.
Around icons stay silently those who sin
They want to buy themselves a place in paradise
Close your eyes
Get on your knees
From every side sound insincere but loud prayers, it makes no sense
Gold crosses on your necks is the weight that takes you underneath
Take your retribution staying on your knees
The end for all of you will be the same
Your rotten souls can be seen right through
The air is pierced with the scent of deceit
Your deeds speak for you
Your fate is only yours guilt
Take your retribution staying on your knees
The end for all of you will be the same
Indulgence!
Indulgence!
In the end of the way,
When further is nothingness,
You're ready to pray
To anyone just to save yourselves.
At this very time comes the moment of truth
There won't be salvation for those like you!

Revolution of Escapism
03:48
|

We're born too late to explore the Earth
and not late enough to explore the space
But we are born just in time to face
The revolution of escapism
Look around, we live in such a beautiful time
When consuming became an absolution of life
There's only one way - it's to eat, shit, and die
But I've always thought I've got another fate of mine
They lied me that I've got another fate of mine
That I was unique as a ray of the sun
They lied me that I was the special one
Special as one single grain of sand
I see only darkness around me
All miracles left this place
Marvelous world based on broken dreams
Each day gives me it's wretched gaze
We're born too late to explore the Earth
and not late enough to explore the space
But we are born just in time to face
The revolution of escapism
Leaving the reality is not the best way to lose yourself
Leaving the reality is the best way to find yourself!
Leaving the reality is not the best way to lose yourself
Leaving the reality is the best way to find yourself!
The life given to us is too tough for us
It brings us too much of pain and frustration
My wounds can't heal up when it cuts me again
To endure this we need a cure for salvation
Not everyone matters
There are too many people today
There is an inflation of human
Reality is the lie we persude ourselves!
Revolution of escapism
And it's the revolution in our hearts!

Old Feel
04:39
|

Like an unwanted guest who stayed to live in my soul
Like this many a day forgotten stranger
We haven't met with you for so long
This old feel, the old feel
I got that I am broken when I realised I'm useless
That I've got nothing more to tear from myself for this world
It gives you hope only to take it back, it's it purpose
Is there still anything that deserves to pay with my blood and bones?
I didn't want you to come again
I didn't want to see you there
And I don't want to see you stand
In my bleak realm of ice and death
How can I go any further if I still don't know who I am?
The more I stay in illusions the harder it get to reality
Where I laid my bones near waystone not able to choose the way
I stayed where I started I could not even make a step
I tried so hard but I got to the field of raised despair
I didn't want you to come again
I didn't want to see you there
And I don't want to see you stand
In my bleak realm of ice and death
I'm astray in perpetual labyrinth of mirror roads
It is the purgatory for the hopeless
Like an unwanted guest who stayed to live in my soul
Like this many a day forgotten stranger
We haven't met with you for so long
This old feel, the old feel
