about

Acoustic version of "Passion" from our Demo-Ep "Inside||Outside" featuring Dantë.

lyrics

Even the bleakest
grain of dust won't withstand
the claws of time,
cutting trenches

into the things we love,
the things, that may matter to
us.
To the point, where
everything
loses its
worth.

Like feathers we just slow
down the inevitable.
We sell ourselves
to keep our head up and grasp some
air. But
soon there won't be any lungs left to
breathe in
this false life, paid with our souls.
We slip away.
We have nothing to hold onto.

How can we stand on our own,
if there's nothing nearby,
preventing us from drowning
in desperation?
My light turns on!

Even the dullest grey
can't restrain me from shouting: I've found myself!
This is my mission!
I've found my passion!
I don't need a lesson on how to be
someone I never wanted to be!
[Never wanted to be!]
Even if I'm broken
I still have this,
I still have this.

I don't share the values,
forcing me to question myself.
They often managed to push me
down again.

It took me way too long
to understand,
that I have a safe haven,
a last refuge, in this.

[I still have this]
Music proved to me that there is a heart,
somewhere out in this world,
to fix mine, when it was devastated
and unable to beat on. I gave in
and allowed it to be the hand
lifting me up from the hole of absolute darkness
I had thrown myself into.
It was my last match in the longest night,
My shield in the toughest fights,
and when I was wounded again, my crutch to bring me up to new heights.
My guiding lantern to lead me out of the mist.

[I still have this]
So I'm prepared for a second session.
I can now take the abrasion.
And if I come under pressure on a certain occasion,
I can say,
I already had my redemption.
Working on becoming an ideal
in a cold world that consists of nothing but steel.
Selfless I'll mend the lost
Because Even if I'm
broken
I have this.
I still have this.
