The Thirst 03:17
I need to quench this thirst before there´s nothing left it's like a trend, everything gets dried and dead we don't know what it is, so we exhaust land and sea self denial as a sin, building apathy They took our hunger, they took our teeth to make a rosary of pain to conspire, to control, to pray for everything to stay the same like the shepherds of our will, but it's not still waters where they lead they bring the drought to our souls, oceans of sand and we're distant shores There's one thing in my head I need to quench this thirst before there's nothing left It's like a ring, we commit to the sin, and start the disconnection from within the land and air, love ones and friends, our thoughts erased until there's nothing left There was a time when everything was in tune we drained our souls and the world so we disconnect from all that we were disconnect from the rest, disconnect from yourself just thirsty there's one thing in my head I need to quench my head before there's nothing left getting dried and dead

It was the lens that changed, that the picture stayed the same but sometimes reality is just swept away, watch it bleed Tried our best to keep up, holding on to these threads, can't remember what came first, the drought or the thirst Fail to heal now, watch it bleed Forget all you were tought, forget all that you know the speech is ever-changing, this will not last for long Like the sun before the night comes, a monument so vast it's already but a husk, a death rattle from the past And I know there is a fire in your soul, make it burn before this world, puts you down in a hole Let us grab the chance instead and make it shine, like flames swirling in the wind through dark times, our future is bright We have to take that chance The world has thrown the dice, but is us that move the hand we may not know the outcome, but here we stand Take the chance, make it shine 'Cause I know there is a fire in your soul, don't let the weight of this world put you down in a hole Let us grab the chance instead and make it shine, like flames swirling in the wind through dark times, our future is bright Like the sun before the night comes, a monument so vast it's already but a husk, a death rattle from the past

Waking up from an old disease, I couldn't see the sun, how long has it been? I'm not feeling myself, I'm a wolf on a hunt, after a long winter slumber I'm waking up to this uneasy sensation, calling inside like an infection The darkest desires, the clearest of needs, meet the hunger calling from within Now all of my enemies beg, they die in a hole in the cold hard ground where I belonged Yeah I know that I can survive, a new world awaits and I'll thrive and shine and proudly roar Release the beast, forget your fears, forget that you once were diseased Release the beast and show us what you're bringing now Out of this hole, covered in mud Now all of my enemies beg, they die in a hole in the cold hard ground where I belonged Yeah I know that I can survive, a new world awaits and I'll thrive and shine and proudly roar Out of this hole, covered in mud, out of this hole

Inner Oasis 02:43
We've been walking for so long under a blazing ever watching sun, you see Through a picture still in time, it's like hell but before suicide Face down on the sand, I want to give up, get dry from the inside out, it was never part of the plan Then a snake came by, it felt my heat and crawled close by my side Lying on the sand, the husk of a man in the place where I used to stand, but the smell of poison makes me move This life won't hold your hand, but it just may give you one more chance we´ll end up in the same dark hole, yet it's not the time to end it all my body burns, my bones start to root getting into the ground, I'm becoming part of the scene saw the face of fate, but the sun had other plans for me, I have to plant a seed So what's your nature? are you a lamb, a wolf or a snake? you're gonna move me anyway so what are you like, are you bringing peace or thirst? join me in starting this again I felt your glow, the weather's changing, the river flows A friend, a foe, you showed me something I didn't know Of joy, of grief, my tears fall down and make wet the seed I may not see the tree but an oasis will change the scene
