Heavy distorted metal riffs, pounding drums and energetic rhythms are mixed with elaborated melodies full of beauty to create this musical journey. This album tells de story of a character called The Odd One Out that will be the guide of the listener through a world of light and darkness in search of self-knowledge, personal growth and, all in all, a place in life.

1. No Longer Blind: [Verse] I feel the rabid winds of change The youth is due to rise against The flag of hope will wave again For those who gave their lives before The silenced voices of the world The ones who thought they stood alone From the ground we rise Leave fears aside No longer blind In the streets we’ll fight When fire burns bright To win or to die They will hear us cry [Chorus] Together we fight The greed of some can’t beat our might We had enough We want it we’ll get it A new world is knocking at the door Just let it come Rage burning inside is leading us to a new day All their lies end today We’re no longer blind [Verse] Silenced no more We were for too long The time is still to come Their world ends today They no longer lead We break the chains Cry They will hear us cry [Chorus]

In Your Face 05:39
2. In Your Face: [Verse] A King of sound with a worn out crown, that was you when we came around You had to say once and again: You have to learn But why not dreaming in this feeling, in achieving? We are living for this feeling with every beating We are the ones who bit the dust after you looked down on us The ones who learnt from every wound to rise again So what are you feeling when you are seeing that we are thriving? We are just living not deceiving We are all that you aren´t [Chorus] In your face! We make our own way Something else to say? We simply don´t care In your face! We make our own way We won´t ever care This is our way [Verse] You´ve been talking for too long But our will still lives on [Bridge] No matter what happens No matter how hard you try We won´t fall again And even if we find ourselves lost We won´t care a thing you say [Verse] You´ve been messing for too long But forever we´ll go on [Bridge] [Chorus] In your face! We make our own way Something else to say? We simply don´t care We make our own way We won´t ever care This is our way

3. One Thousand and One Nights: [Verse] Cold eyes but a heart so warm I silently stare at you I´m feeling my dreams come true When you see me and smile, just once You are reading my soul so clear I try to write a tale where we are heroes in love and war You see it and smile, once more I am the one that every night watches you sleep You let me in just enough, just a dose more You can´t believe that I feel Look at my face, just once You´ve been saying in no one you trust That you need more time I have seen you trusting the streets I don´t need more time to see. [Chorus] A thousand nights to show your love Just needed one to see your lies You love yourself, no more feelings Now I see that you are the snake that I don’t need in my life

Bonds 03:42
4. Bonds: [Verse] When your day fades to black And no matter what you do When you are out of luck And you rise to fall again See that everything isn’t lost Rise up from the dust We will never let you down We are that helping hand When life hits hard, hold your ground [Chorus] Joined! By something more than blood You won’t! You won’t be left all alone We are! Someone with you till the end Joined! By all those nights of booze We won’t! Let your spirit crack and fall We are! The strength inside of you [Verse] Trouble seems to fade away In the bottom of the bar And the pain drowns tonight In the beer of your glass When a friendly silence means much more Than what hurts you deep inside And you feel that just with your mates You can face this fucking life [Chorus x 2]
5.
My Fairytale 07:32
5. My Fairytale: [Verse] I don’t want the wind to bring me your name back I don’t want to read again this fairy tale of mine When the king and the queen hid monsters deep inside And my only wish was forgotten by shooting stars This love made me a sinner I used to be a believer I will not drown on your river of sorrow I hid too long what I’m feeling I’m sick and tired of dreaming Wasting my life and receiving nothing This is your way of living You´ll be the one winning Your twisted blackjack I bet it, I lost it You left me nothing I believed I could hold this for long In the end remains nothing Can´t you see? I can face it no more Now my soul is empty [Chorus] I kept your secrets from myself for you to seem a saint I drew the love of your smile I searched for kindness in the words that tore the love I felt I used to bet for this love But I can no more! [Verse] I´ll fly now I´m free now You´ve been my jail You feel it Just give in Don’t call me “mine” You can see there´s no shame in my eyes I don´t need time I can feel your blame in me no more ´Cause I can no more! I can no more! This love made me a sinner I used to be a believer I will not drown on your river
6.
6. You´ve got the Blues: [Verse] Lost in the shadows, just your demons by your side A cigarette gives light to broken kind-off man Remind a time when everything was coming down Emptiness fills your glass [Bridge] Looking for answers you didn´t want to find Tears of bile wetting memories of lies Crossing again those long ago forgotten lines Pounding the walls of prisons deep inside your mind You´ve got the blues! [Chorus] You´re a broken man Empty shell of man With a frozen heart of rage You can´t get out from the dark You are a shadow of man Between heaven and hell With the eyes of a mad You´ve got the blues! [Verse] Wasted by this cruel life And a love of pain You were crying for a sign When your hope passed by [Bridge] [Chorus]
7.
Therapy 04:53
7. Therapy: The moonlight will shine upon my way When fears of yesterday fill my dreams of anger and pain My song will never end If to music I could pray to ignite the fire of men Oh music listen me pray My hope will guide our way The chords lead our fate
8.
Alive 05:49
8. Alive: [Verse] I feel alive I needn’t hold this feeling The more I tried not to believe it The more my heart turned a piece of ice Opaque enough not to see through Not thick enough to hide the truth Long time hiding in the dark From myself Now I know who I am Hold on to what you have There’s no need for looking back Don’t conceal your feelings Happy to cry, happy for living [Chorus] Sometimes water sets the fire Burning inside of your mind Sometimes gloomy, others healing Giving you a deeper insight Wash away that pain you’re feeling Leaving your fears aside I feel alive [Verse] Never run from what your guts say Never be afraid from pain Your wounds are lessons to be learnt Don’t feel ashamed, nor stupid or upset You’ll be stronger than you were No more hiding your scars That would be hiding all that you are You will learn from your pain Why to kneel, why to fight till the end No more keeping What you are feeling No more keeping pain inside [Chorus]
9.
9. For your Sake / For my Sake: [Verse] I could give all I am but it wasn’t good enough for you All my dreams could hit the floor if like that I’d make you smile [Bridge] Can’t you share my feelings? I´d die for your sake Is it just me dreaming? Your dreams are my goal [Verse] How could you deny it? Could you? I´ve been waiting for your love to heal the pain inside Look deep in my eyes I feel it, you can´t My hope is nothing Still you´re everything in my life [Bridge] Couldn´t you share my feelings? I died for your sake Was it just me dreaming? You can´t help to be free to leave me 1 2 3 4 Let’s go! [Verse] I´ve been waiting for your love to save me but my only saviour was my own You´re my prison, my disease of hatred and my cure is just letting you go [Chorus] Scars painting my body and a heart perhaps too cold I now see my feelings as a way out of this sorrow I forgave myself to be a better man, a better thing
10.
10. The Odd One Out [Verse] How can I feel such a freak, such a god dammed outsider for just being myself? Blamed for whatever I am, for whatever I stand for, for what I am not Judged and found guilty of being such a broken persons A black sheep in the herd you hate to see Keep closing your eyes still I won't disappear ´cause this is me Weird! Strange! You can´t explain [Chorus] No, there is no way I change you'd better accept Open your eyes and see what's to be me No matter what you say this won’t change Open your eyes and see what`s to be me [Verse] Feeling like the odd one out in an endless journey to find my heart Lost in the mist of illusions of that I should be disappointing you Never crushed by the dreams left behind A swimmer against this tide we're forced to love Weird! Strange! But never changed [Chorus]
