Blackmail 02:29
Why the feelings are so hard to aim, I just don't get it How do I never realize? That's right, because of that my heart was in slowmotion Strangers in a different reality Caught in the ambush, I cannot escape I must get rid of your filthy lies before I go insane More of the same How could you say things you didn't feel at all? Go tell'em to someone else 'cause I had enough Shadows and echoes of a time already misspent I'm willing for the end You didn't care about our memories And now I can see why you were worried about send them like postcards, there's nothing left Who else have you treated like me? And you didn't even care A blackmail to the heart for what was so special I feel betrayed Despite my love has been a weapon in wrong hands, you are done killing it How could you say things you didn't feel at all? Go tell'em to someone else 'cause I had enough Shadows and echoes of a time already misspent I'm willing for the end

For a Trick 02:25
For a Trick We were people who didn't fit in any place No one said we never tried so hard Wanted something to do, something to achieve, I was consumed This is what I am dying for (for a trick) As I keep repeating while I'm falling to the floor With the tears covering my eyes I'll flip the board and try it again, I'm dying for that trick Philadelphia is full of crackheads, nobody wants to be here But I never loved until I found Love Park This is what I am dying for (for a trick) As I keep repeating while I'm falling to the floor With the tears covering my eyes I'll flip the board and try it again, I'm dying for that trick Never give in, for a trick I will try it again

Inch by Inch 02:37
It’s time to break the chains that oppress me and don’t let me be free It’s time to start the change All you have to do is focus on what you really want, get the fuck out and do it NOW Slowly, I will rise I don't need nobody to value what I do I won't let me wear always a frown What you have to do it’s throw the shit away ‘cause everything is gonna be okay It took me a bunch of months to take the plunge and see that’s there’s no need to hurry ‘bout what I wanna be GET THE FUCK OUT I’m no longer overwhelmed, but I’ll keep the struggle for those good times, so hard to come All the best is yet to come At first glance you won't realize about what you have achieved, but you will see how far you’ve gone Don’t feel desperated ‘cause you’ve got plenty of time to put in practice what you learned GET OUT DO IT NOW GET OUT.

Listen up! I don't need an intervention Go away! I'm free enough to live I'm responsible Of my fears and insecurities Unquestionable All that I can be The tears and joys of getting older Beneath the surface of where I'm hiding shows without a doubt that I still keep my spirit ageless In any moment In any given moment I will strife against the comments you had and get you labeled with all my words Anyone would say that is impossible to make, but I'm the one who make things happen And everyone will see that I will walk alone, I will walk alone again I was born to walk for miles No one can go any further but turning 80 is not an easy task, I am built to last Anyone would say that is impossible to make, but I'm the one who make things happen. And everyone will see that I will walk along, I will walk alone again

I can't remember since the last time we ever met, Like nobody knows Right from the start, coming clean in misconception You were mainly my best friend Could we live like those things never happened? Don't ask me why Keeping our friendship is so important for us Don't ask me why this will stay between you and I And I might say making others opinons so relevant was a world of doom and self-destruction In my dismay where everything looked a little different, better wave that shit goodbye Could we live like those things never happened? Don't ask me why Keeping our friendship is so important for us Don't ask me why this will stay between you and I I won't stand a chance, that time together that we spent But everything must come to an end I won't stand a chance, that time together that we spent again But everything must come to an end
7.
Not My Home 02:28
How many lifes you lived while you weren't at our place? There's no need to feel sorry, it went out of hands We are pieces running in every direction Over and over Waiting to be matched It's not all your fault Is not my home Theres no chance of recognition To a place I can't call home The missed relief inside this bare refrain And all the songs we left alone We are the flames of a fire we never lit With all the promises we couldn't keep Of course there will be consecuences I've never took anything for granted, and I never believed in second chances And neither faced the problems all together 'cause we both know we never weren't that sincere It's not all your fault Is not my home Theres no chance of recognition To a place I can't call home The missed relief inside this bare refrain And all the songs we left alone

Row 22 01:00
I dream again with the row 22 By far it was the best trip we ever had in our lives Bent and broken, feeling grey, we met extraordinary people, and even made new friends Lost ID's in suicidal flights First encounters and drunk fights Wonder what I did that night I'm feeling sick inside CAN SOMEONE HIT ME IN THE CHEST??? CAUSE I WANNA KEEP DRINKING NOW
9.
Anxiety 02:06
Breathing here’s so hard that it hurts What can I do for what is cynical to change? Enclosed in this false feeling Breathing here is so hard I look myself inside a mirror I feel weird and I feel strange Four concrete walls collapsing Crumbling over me I fight for myself This synergy is always dashing hopes So on and so forth When I look after you Humanity doesn’t seem to exist Giving all that I am While my wealth fall down the stairs
10.
Deliverance 03:55
Waking up, facing every day Places and stories I can't believe Lies that made me so hard to see and now I will show the world My prospects take up enough space, From an empty heart in such an empty place. I got lost, but honestly I will find my way (I'm not a slave) Worthless, untrustworthy words Hipocresy at its finest Learning things on the hardest way So despicable Wasting our time with gibberish The weight of this too damn big that we can't stand It's all in vain, stop talking shit Don't waste our fucking time Where are all those frontiers we were supposed to break? Or should we wait? Deliverance Nobody can be sure about what to expect And what to say Deliverance Can you tell me how the hell we get ourselves involved in compromises, not a big deal, but still a fucking shame It's so hard get rid of this, anyway, what's the difference between be promoted and do it by ourselves? Well, I'll do it for me. We'll find the keys to open doors No fucking way, we won't give up Is it hard to understand to let us do our shit This is for real Deliverance Nobody can be sure about what to expect And what to say Deliverance
11.
Over 02:56
There's no easy way to set things through I am sorry I can't stay for you You have confidence and self esteem But none of this was meant to be You always put a smile of my face And I loved you to the core But I want to make you know this I want you to notice When you love something you better leave it When it's over, it's over Better move on When you love something you better leave it When it's over, it's over
