Waldgeist Good shit! Reminds me of End with a bit less abstraction and refinement perhaps. Also, the name is a lie. I am definitely hooked.

Gruß an Marvin! Favorite track: Greyhound.

2.	Sleep of the Machines 02:38	lyrics	buy track
Sleep of the Machines Who would have thought That we, the most delicate species, creators of the finest arts, those who wield words like weapons, build cities with stones we ripped from Mother Earth, That we‘re shitting on all of that When the end seems inevitable? Well, my friend, that would have been me. Impaled “fine souls” mark your way You claim to be the voice Of those unheard The silent majority That majority is dead and dull Completely depraved of decency They repeat their routines And don’t care about anything but themselves Where have we gone How can it be We are the ones Inside the machine Nothing is bright Nothing is free Open your lungs Embrace the disease You want to be their voice? Go for it. Everyone’s for themselves now I promise I won’t hesitate to draw first blood Just to see you fall
3.	Phrases 02:56	lyrics	buy track
Phrases Where my people at? Let’s get the gang together! “Squad goals, squad goals” “Strong minded individuals” Borderline fascist faceless robots Regurgitating capitalist propaganda -Sincerely written on my iPhone There’s no ethical consumerism Not in this system, nor in any other Everytime you try to “do it right” You’re bound to fail again Everytime you tell them about How you’re trying to “make the world a better place” You fall into the trap of your own selfish bullshit I get where you’re coming from Those would have been great topics For a race that hasn’t failed yet But we have So let me tell you what to do with those phrases You roll em up nicely And put em where the sun don’t shine As every word of yours Is a miserable call for attention The people who sing the highest praise Use their image to go fuck up someone looking up to them Without ill intent. Been there Done that
4.	The Line 02:42	lyrics	buy track
The Line I think about the past should have listened to those voices This shit is gonna last I’ll end it now – I’ll tear it down You are in my way You piece of shit You are in my way I’ll put you in your place No time to play games Cause as the day wanes I’m here to make claims Staring with a grey gaze I’m feeling vague pains Like I had my brain drained I’ll hit you like a freight train I’m the last face you will see You’ve crossed the Line Now you’ll answer to my judgement Your deed’s repercussions becomme apparent expressed with a bludgeon to your face Our fates are intertwined You’ve crossed the line Let’s end this shit right now I’m the enforcer of abnormality I will bring you slaughter And sheer brutality
5.	A Moment 02:43	lyrics	buy track
A Moment Oh what a pity For all these years You deemed yourself relevant Mindlessly going on about yourself And still thinking you're in the right As if man wasn’t the cause For all the things that went to shit You still think you’re part of it That they’re still listening Understanding you Respecting you They’re not You’re a waste of space Laughable but proud How can it be Please, someone tell me, That we have to live Through this giant shitfest We‘re guilty by association For every single one of them Waking up every day There's no peaceful solution We have to acknowledge it We’re all the same It’s time. Nothing ever really mattered And surely that won't ever change Final warming Soon it's over At least I knew it way before the end Where feelings defeat facts Consequences defeat everything
6.	Greyhound 02:58	lyrics	buy track
Greyhound I just don’t bother anymore Everything’s bleak and lifeless I just don’t bother anymore Everything’s bleak and lifeless It’s not that I don’t feel at all I just don’t feel as much There’s no purpose No ultimate goal We‘re a joke No purpose No goal They call me pessimistic and antisocial Because I won’t mingle and usually see the worst in everything A perpetual downward motion the destructive power of man nothing can become of what we've left here to rot and dry I just don’t bother anymore Everything’s bleak and lifeless I just don’t bother anymore Everything’s bleak and lifeless It’s not that I want to be labelled But call me NIHILIST For nothing is what I can change And nothing is what I will become
