Red lights flash My sight is blurred And I feel I lost myself Deep blue sky Feeling fresh Everything is mine! MY CHOSEN LOVE MY CHOSEN PLACE I`ll never let you down As long as you will make me smile And all my pain will fade away When you`re right here in my veins In my BLOOD! I think this fucking ship It sinks right now And I`m swimming for my life But now I see That there`s a chance To save my goddamn ass TO FACE MY LIFE TO BREAK THE CIRCLE I`ll never let you down As long as you will make me smile And all my pain will fade away When you`re right here in my veins In my BLOOD! My weak-willed mind Nearly made me fuckin die But now I`m save Cause live`s my heroine My heroine!

Every time you demonstrate Your superiority It should read matter over mind. I see Who needs colors honestly, black and white is all there is to see All there is to see I don`t know what it is That makes u think you are so sick Cause it`s obvious to me You`re something no one wants to be Now, now, now please put on That self complacent smile That says: “I’m - (I’m so much better than you) I’m so much better than you” With your buddies close at hand A gang of pawns that act on your demand Oh you’re so cool, oh you’re so cool I wish I was just like you Just like you Just like you And if irony is for suckers Well I guess then I am one Actions speak louder than words So let this fucking song rise From a whisper to a chorus to a scream I don`t know what it is That makes u think you are so sick Cause it`s obvious to me You`re something no one wants to be

It`cold outside “I regard myself as a soldier, Though a soldier of peace.” (Ghandi) Children begging on the streets. Is this our dream how this life should be? Can they really stand on their feet We have to turn ourself around And to put all things right We have to check our alibis To be ready for our fight You don`t need to justify yourself You keep watching, But then you look away! Don`t we have to take a break Don`t we have to change? Like a homeless pain Not knowing from where it came Home is where your heart is, They`ve been told Don`t you see these kids are losing ground Where are your helping hands I can`t lie to myself no more Confess there`s so much wrong Wasting time, makes no one strong! Let`s react and affect You don`t need to justify yourself You keep watching, But then you look away! Don`t we have to take a break Don`t we have to change? We won`t forget, All the things we did We will deny All those dreams we killed We fucked up!

Shipwreck 03:44
This town feels like a prison cell Just like this rib cage to my heart Some say it’s irresponsible some say it’s your decision I say that it’s finally time to escape this fucking prison I’m climbing the stairs like so many did before I’m at the cliff, I’m looking down - the ship is coming back to shore It’s winter time, this town’s so dark I can sense dishonesty In every line and every arc The snow turns black and fills my heart It’s getting harder to get up I rarely leave the house No one worries, no one cares When I turn my insides out Some say it’s irresponsible some say it’s your decision I say that it’s finally time to escape this fucking prison I’m climbing the stairs like so many did before I’m at the cliff, I’m looking down - the ship is coming back to shore My heart is like an anchor And it pulls me towards the ground My heart is like an anchor And it pulls me towards the ground The cold, hard asphalt is the last thing I’ll embrace The cold, hard asphalt - it will kiss my dull glass face

Love is Dead 03:28
The conversation of two liars Slowly builds up to a climax The record spins continuously And looses its fidelity The nauseating feeling of misused trust Slowly creeps into my body It comes in waves and gives me shivers Now like a snake you wriggle your way Through conversations every day Poisoned words drip off your lips You kill with kisses - you kill real quick You kill with kisses - and you’re so slick What’s love, what’s trust, what’s honesty? The only one that matters is me And I know that love is dead We slit her wrists (and) Chopped off her head It makes me feel uncomfortable - The bold display of unfaithfulness All the time left on the fence With no idea which side to lean towards Now like a snake you wriggle your way Through conversations every day Poisoned words drip off your lips You kill with kisses - you kill real quick You kill with kisses - and you’re so slick Permanent discontent - The achievement of the modern world Now, there is no such thing as trust Everyone, everyone gives in to lust What’s love, what’s trust, what’s honesty? The only one that matters is me And I know that love is dead We slit her wrists (and) Chopped off her head

The leopard can`t change its spots Be what you want to be! There`s only one chance in life To choose your best way Express your feelings and Define your goals To enrich your world and your life! With our hearts in hands And our minds intact! Let`s not waste our time Let`s not waste our minds Sometimes it’s hard To walk on stony ground Sometimes it’s hard To find new reasons why Sometimes it’s hard To watch the world go round Sometimes it’s hard To take it with a sigh Look in the mirror And what you see Is this the person you wanted to be With our hearts in hands And our minds intact! Let`s not waste our time Let`s not waste our minds Here we are now Side by side, Conquered the world Left everything behind, No regrets Oh it feels so god damn right! Sing it With our hearts in hands And our minds intact! With our hearts in hands And our minds intact!

Lost in memories Lost in time A never ending pain, Familiarity Never meant so much to me... Give it back To me These walls I live in, Within these walls my heart is fixed Don`t break it down This fucking pressure on my chest Killing the life I had, Buried in stone cold bricks And I will shed my blood And drench this home in red I will shed my blood Memories the last paradise where I Can`t get lost! Leaving stone cold anger behind Looking forward New adventures to waltz through Although I`m fading away Becoming the fucking slave of depression The disliked mistress of desperation Memories the last paradise where I cant`get lost

White Noise 02:39
I awake to the sound of church bells Ringing in my ears I awake to the sound of church bells Ringing in my head I get the message I lack the faith I am Doubting Thomas But your hands are unscathed I am Doubting Thomas And your hands are blood red I hear your words I perceive no proof I fall asleep to the sound of church bells Tolling distantly I fall asleep to the sound of church bells Tolling indifferently

about

Five Minute Fall Salzburg, Austria

FIVE MINUTE FALL will never be your new favourite hype band They are way too old, they don‘t look cool on stage and are not as pretty as your lovely new metalcore band from the US Instead of focusing on trends, they try to write honest music,in a fine mixture of some catchy melodies, some kind of screamo desperation and some heavy metal aggression This all works out for Metal and Hardcore kids ... more
