Painful
Perception
(S. Madaus)
I
reach my hand for you
in the valley of desperate souls.
I fought the battle to the end,
to be with you.
You
never answered, never thought
about what you`ve done to me.
Your ego was the only rule,
and losing you my destiny.
My destiny...
In
your search for freedom
you pushed me away.
As a solution for your own frustration
you blew our love away.
I
hope you`re happy in your guilt.
I am strong and free !
No one ever wins my heart,
it just bleeds for me !
It just bleeds for me..

Confusion`n doubt
(S. Madaus)
What I see with my eyes
is not reality.
I don`t want your way of life
just leave me be.
I
don`t know what it`s all about
and where it begins.
Don`t know which way to go
or where to turn around.
But
I know your truth are lies to me
just leave me be.
I
don`t need your sympathy,
I don`t need your prayers,
I don`t want your reality,
cause this is just stupidity.
I
just need a way out
of confusion and doubt.
Sometimes
I feel broken.
Where`s the spark to enlighten all this dark ?
I don`t know who I am
I just know how you want me to be,
I just need a chance to find it out alone.
This
world in which I was thrown
is surely not my home.

Rise`n demise
(S. Madaus)
It`s
out of control, it`s out of balance
a time of chaos is all around.
Nations get killed - complete horror
and mankind is losing ground.
This
civilization is not civilized.
Blinded fools try to lead the wise.
Our world steers into its own demise,
while only a few seem to realize.
Soldiers
get paid for senseless killings,
our time is defined through the loss of humanity.
With the money of wars mouth could be fed,
our entire system is completely misled.
But
we should bear the hope within
that a time of chaos is a time of change.
On the ruins of yesterday lies the chance for all
to build something new thats standing tall.
One
must accept that rise`n demise
is clinged together for all the time.
From dust to life, from ashes to dust
is the way of all things in that we can trust.

Live your own rules
(S. Madaus)
I
was thrown into this world
that`s embodied by a building,
no one knows its limitations
where it begins or where its ending.
I felt so alone,
I was so helpless, I was confused.
I didn`t even know my name.
Are we humans, machines or fools?
Time
went on and time it told me
that every time has its own tasks,
and I grew older, waiting for the future
and I tried not to ask.
I
had to learn that I must fulfill my function.
I had to respect the ones who rule this system
I couldn`t ignore the traditions and the norms,
I couldn`t ignore that we live our life in forms.
So
I did it like the others did to lead a pleasant life.
We learnt the rules, learnt not to ask, worked
everyday untill night.
I did succeed, I found a way, a way to feel just right.
It made me proud, it made me strong,
it helped me through the night.
But
one day my little world,
it broke apart fell into pieces,
cause in the nights of lonely days.
They
told me about a better life,
a better world to life in.
Where you just live your own rules,
where you feel as a human, not as a fool.And
again confusion was there to remain,
my heart was in conflict, my soul was insane.
These walls closed me in, the chains were too tight.
I lost all my hope, my faith, my pride.
But
then suddenly,
I saw the fountains of life,
in which I wanted to fall
to escape and break the wall.I
saw all the joy that was waiting for me,
I saw nature in bloom and alive.
I see justice existing in another society.
Liberty has to survive.
After all this torment and pain in my life,
with joyfully dreams that helped me through the nights.
I renewed my lifestyle with my own rules,
brought things to my world unseen and unheard.

State
of blood
(S. Madaus)
It
makes no sense and no difference to me
that everyone is laughing when
I`m down on my knees.
I`ve got too less to live but too much to die,
they try to oppress me, they want me telling lies.
I`m
imprisoned in this cellar of inhuman situation
they try to break my will - "soul destruction".
And when I do not function, they bring me to the boys
those sadistic, evil demons treat me as their toy.
They
play their evil games with my body`n soul
they break my personality to have me controlled.
I am not just one, there are thousands of fools
who have to play the role and are as their tools.
They
don`t need reasons to justify their doing
we are puplic enemies who endanger their ruling.
Call it democracy, I call it state of blood
their way of life is killing me - I tasted too much.
We`re
living in a state of blood
with lies to eat and now we cough them out.
Hard to face living when your`re down on your knees.
We live in oppression, cause we`re the enemies.
