Minor rolls for voting polls 03:10
lyrics
buy track
Their best performances always show me How everything is perfect, and everyone agree With these methods of impellent control, In their shows you have own role. Don't blame them for all your mistakes – (Ashamed!) You make them real after a few takes, An “innovate” order of their voting system – Stuck inside its “borders”, you never resist 'em! An outdated story of reaching the goal Based upon a “public” opinion poll – This scene repeats again and again – One people plays, but other plans campaigns. Don't blame them for all your mistakes – (Ashamed!) You make them real after a few takes, An “innovate” order of their voting system – Stuck inside its “borders”, you never resist 'em! You only scream (peace!) at authorities, Pretending to change something with (e-)voting and peace – It’s not affected the course of this disease – Your pointless voices bow down on damaged knees. (Down! Down!) Your voices down on damaged knees! Don't blame them for all your mistakes – (Ashamed!) You made them real after a few takes, This innovate order comes from inside – In your own “borders” you’ve never been right! You never, never, never, never…

Burning the banners 03:08
lyrics
buy track
All these national symbols, Like venomous crinkles On (tired) society fingers, – All these perpetual reasons For the changing of “seasons”, A long-drawn mental prisons. It has been created for you all, Getting deep into your soul! Then someone built all those halls, Painted it there on every wall! For whom?! They have built all these walls – Do they ever watch how it falls?! Sometimes in all these halls… (Hey, look – someone’s burning the banners!) Their banners burn on these walls… (Try to catch incendiary runners!!!) Try to catch incendiary runners!!! Or they can burn all the banners! Do you hear the call? – This is it – All these things are everything you ever need! Nothing more and nothing (for you) then – There is no need to ask them why and when. Created for you all, It’s getting deep into your soul! Then someone built all those halls, Painted it there on every wall! Control! – That’s why they have built all these walls in so many big halls, But it falls… and it burns… Sometimes in all these halls… (Hey, look – someone’s burning the banners!) Their banners burn on these walls… (Try to catch incendiary runners!!!) Try to catch incendiary runners!!! Or they… they will burn all the banners! Why it always burns... Sometimes in all these halls… (Hey, look – someone’s burning the banners!) Their banners… Their banner burns… (Try to catch incendiary runners!!!) Their banner burns… Their banners burn… Hey, look – it’s burning…

Cultivating The Aftermath 05:16
lyrics
buy track
Such different people live in various places, But there is always a reason When their empire displaces… One man stuck inside himself, Did not feeling a blunder, Did not notice those calls later turned his nation asunder And rose like a thunder! And when the time came He wasn’t prepared for a change, Facing a primal punishing hand of proletarian rage… It grows through the times, the times Through our deeds (with which) others cannot agree. Our whole life we try to succeed with what matters, Climbing high this never-ending tree. Another man wants to be high, Be high enough close to stars on the sky, So many things he could not see In a space race he tried to deny. (Even more than meet our eyes!) Other thing that he wanted even more To build a system of equations, And plunged his land deeper Into utopian persuasions… It grows through the times, Through our deeds (with which) others cannot agree. Our whole life we try to succeed with what matters, Climbing high this never-ending tree. So many reactions in a whirlpool of events, So many promises in a position of defense, What will be left of us after everyone will leave?.. And the third one again had his own visions, Ignored past mistakes, Which led to critical decisions. (Colossal ambitions – repressive additions!) And another egocentric kingdom built on populistic tries, Majestic rule came to an end – An end with tiresome reprise. It grows through the times, Through our deeds (with which) others cannot agree. Our whole life we try to succeed with what matters, Climbing high this never-ending tree. So many reactions in a whirlpool of events, So many promises in a position of defense, What will be left of us after everyone will leave?.. There is no difference for these three, – No difference for anyone, – Facing all the consequences Everything you strive for comes to none. So, maybe look back and think for a moment, Finally start learning from this shit, Let’s break this cycle of mistakes, (You are) wrong from the start – you must admit! Break it down! Break this circle down! Admit it, now – This is world around that you never choose! Admit it, now – You must break it down or you gonna loose! Admit it, now!

Simon says Destroy 02:53

Destroy!!! Listen, now, the only monster here is inside myself – (Inside yourself!) Listen, now, this thing gonna-gonna break this shell! (And it’s going well!) Many thoughts are flowing, now, I cannot keep it in, – All I wish is to destroy our office from within, Oh, I hate these smart ones (always) telling what to do – Every time I want to seal their mouths with glue! Every time my mind blows out Someone is always around! (Kick these bastards!) Oh, so many times I wanted to mute their officious sounds… (Destroy them faster!) Listen, now, the only monster here is inside myself – (Inside yourself!) Listen, now, this thing gonna-gonna break this shell! (And it’s going well!) Fuck them, it is over, I can’t wait anymore, Their stupid bullshit has gotten to the core, Enough of their orders and mindless mail trash, I take my work folder (closer) to their faces to smash! Every time my mind blows out Someone is always around! (Kick these bastards!) Oh, so many times I wanted to mute their officious sounds… (Destroy them faster!) (Destroy them!) Destroy these bastards! Every time my mind blows out Someone is always around! (Kick these bastards!) Oh, so many times I wanted to mute their officious, ficious bored sounds… (Destroy them faster!)

Social networking race of destruction 03:52
lyrics
buy track
The year was 1985, We dreamt of technologies (that) would change our life… That time we thought it’s better not to listen (to old) fools, Their pathetic world with archaic rules – We thought that future will change our life for good, But the progress has a back side, – Could we understood?! Where are we going in a new era that has begun? Does it help us or another one? When our “freedom” becomes an empty word It does not matter concurred you are or not… A goddamn road Which always leads directly to nowhere, There are only marketers and their “gears”, Reaching goals, and feed us without care, With our words, faked worlds Grow in every of their show, And this progress becomes a lucid dream We can watch on every actual stream… This is social networking race of destroying us all! Of destroying this world! Of destroying us all! Social networking destruction! While achieving of everyday goals We do not notice bigger problems of it all – These modern medias corrupted our minds – And there is noone left offline tonight… Where are we going in a new era that has begun? Does it help us or another one? When our “freedom” becomes an empty word It does not matter concurred you are or not… Destruction!

Digital Rebels 03:40
lyrics
buy track
We begin our noble strike, Started it on “rebel likes”, In the only free modern web state We have the need to increase our rate! Every war is under remote control, now, – One million subscribers Will make this rebellion somehow. This is how it goes When the revolt flows! Yeah, this is how it goes When the public knows! This is how it works – When the public talks, When the public does not talk Rebels never “walk”… Public comments – all our needs – But only for a few days Our virtual crusade was growing seeds. We thought it was a beginning of a new break through, But for other people there was nothing new… This is how it goes When the revolt flows! Yeah, this is how it goes When the public knows! This is how it works – When the public talks, They do not want to talk… When the public does not talk Rebels never “walk”… Oh, my riot, private riot… This is how it goes When the revolt flows! Yeah, this is how it goes When the public knows! (No matter, nothing to prove…) This is how it works – When the public talks, (No matter, no need to move…) When the public does not talk Rebels never “walk”… Yeah, we are the digital rebels! (We make our fables!) This is how it works…

Castles in the sand 03:05
lyrics
buy track
I heard a voice from my phone again, And it became one of my best friends – He talked about taking my hands To help me draw big castles in the sand. Without hands drawing your castles in the sand… My phone is a smart one, makes my life the best! Drawing your castles in the sand… Built by authorization of the latest proclamations, These castles are nothing more than An updated part of the plan! Plan to rebuild our minds… С креативностью Со своей перспективой Он строит новый мир Большой инициативой! Всегда радушный, никогда не молчит, Всегда поддержит и никогда не спит, Мой лучший друг и виртуальный герой, – Включи свой гаджет, и он будет твой! Без помощи рук строит замки в песке он вокруг! Мой дом самый умный – он лучший из всех! Из песка он построил идеальный успех! Рождённые чужими решениями, Авторизацией и разрешениями, Эти замки – лишь обновления Их плана порабощения! Plan to defeat our minds… Built by authorization of the latest proclamations, These castles are nothing more than An updated part of the plan! Plan to rebuild our minds…

Counting our end 03:08
lyrics
buy track
Come out to the world (that) you never lived in, Come, see this place you have not ever been – These fields are clear like your land was before – It’s time to ignore it some more… We never ever understand (That you kill it!) When making a new step on the other land – (Must feel it!) This clock is counting our end… (Can you hear it?) While the planet is suffering from our greedy hands. Once our oceans were clean from kerosene – Now, children grow and do not know what it means To live in a world, clear like your land before – And we ignore it once more. We never ever understand (That you kill it!) When making a new step on the other land – (Must feel it!) This clock is counting our end… (Can you hear it?) While the planet is suffering from our greedy hands. Counting last seconds till the end… We never got rid of all these brutalities, Of ecological collapse hidden by “red-tape” formalities – A covering truth by g7 and g20, Speaking of problems but never closing their valves… We never ever understand (That you kill it!) When making a new step on the other land – (Must feel it!) This clock is counting our end… (Can you hear it?) While the planet is suffering from our greedy hands.

Storm is coming 03:50
lyrics
buy track
The storm is coming, A selective progress – A growing big mass of people’s regress, The storm is coming And crushing these walls – Every last word before our fall. We often forget about who we (really) are – It’s time to remind that we’ve come so far – And everyone hides from demolishing waves, Begin to recall for themselves own prayers… Hiding inside our dome – We call this place our home… Maybe, it’s a perfect dome, But not for anyone I know… This storm is already inside this dome… The storm is coming, And nowhere to hide From different things we buried inside. The storm is coming, The last time we can decide To find what’s wrong that we’ve never tried. We often forget about who we (really) are – It’s time to remind that we’ve come so far – And everyone hides from demolishing waves, Begin to recall for themselves own prayers… Hiding inside our dome – We call this place our home… Maybe, it’s a perfect dome, But not for anyone I know… To everyone that I know… Is it an end of tonight? (An end tonight…) Is it an end we were looking for? It’s a time for us to find (It’s a time…) What has been lost somewhere the day before… These things from own past we cannot ignore… We often forget about who we (really) are – It’s time to remind that we’ve come so far – And everyone hides from demolishing waves, Begin to recall for themselves own prayers… Hiding inside our dome – We call this place our home… Maybe, it’s a perfect dome, But not for anyone I know…

City of nowhere 03:42
lyrics
buy track
Why do I remember that day? – These people that have been taken away… I look at this photo again But I cannot remember, who are these men? …But I heard their screams in my dreams, This car takes these men somewhere, it seems… And why do I remember that day? – I look at this photo and have nothing left to say… And every time I unlock my phone I forget about other things, Because of so much news in the feeds, billboards and such spellbinding links… But maybe, all these things around – A fictional sound – they do not exist, Keeping my consciousness drifting while everything is shifting and never persist? Something is very strange… Something here is very strange… Oh, it is very strange about things around, This picture in my head – It’s fueling my rage – Something is hidden from us by the leaders of this “town”… And every time I unlock my phone I forget about these things, But why does something tell me that it’s not – It is not what it really seems? Oh, what it really seems… It’s not, it is not what it really seems… All these things ‘till this moment Sunk me deeper into absorbing dreams, But when the battery’s low, I find (that)… It’s a meta-illusion (Created) by corrupted collusion – Whole this “city”… Whole this “city”… It’s a purely delusion left after its intrusion… Their new big “city”… Whole this “city”… The biggest city… Their biggest city…
