THE AGE OF FRUSTRATION
Cris Fernandes
We evolve at the speed of sound
And there is nothing left to say
The outcome is most certain
Dawns the age of frustration
High tech pushes away the boundaries
Long before we awake
Not the master of reality
Dreams stolen by a machine
Inner confusion, outer delusion
Forget the past and who we are
Scan our thoughts, fulfill our souls
Bless us for our sins
They’ve taken
Taken away
Taken away our gods
Collate data of our image
Exploiting unharvest fields
We bound as test baits
For the greatness of mankind
Inner confusion, outer delusion
Forget the past and who we are
Scan our thoughts, fulfill our souls
Bless us for our sins
They’ve taken
Taken away
Taken away our gods
Now our lives make no sense at all
And we struggle to survive
Stressed and restrained
This is the age of frustration

BROKEN
Cris Fernandes
Bent, Restrained, Broke, locked inside my head
My hopes now found in disarray
Walls are closing in, so
I try to clear my thoughts of dismay
Agony is now our companion
Gods are gone, all are left alone
Dreams and illusions are nothing but a
Memory of our yesterday
Head high
Dignified
Broken
Picking the pieces
Broken
Pieces of myself
Broken
Cry for help
Broken
Hear my cry
Come and stand beside me
Eyes open together
Head high
Burn the sky
Broken
Picking the pieces
Broken
Pieces of myself
Broken
Cry for help
Broken
Hear my cry

UNCONDITIONAL
Cris Fernandes
Silence takes over
Screaming inside
In vain
Trying to take cover
Demons inside
Again
These empty hands try to teach me to control this
Unconditional anger
Hiding deep within
Lies beneath a soul
That is yet unseen
In time
Our life goes on
Spins a circle of hatred
Unconditionally
Unrestrained demons dancing on my soul
My reality falling into the unknown
Holding on to my inner strength
These shallow eyes try to teach me to control this
Unconditional anger
Hiding deep within
Lies beneath a soul
That is yet unseen
In time
Our life goes on
Spins a circle of hatred
Unconditional
Trapped inside walls I built myself
Locked inside a cage of desperation
Get me out this place I call hell
My own thoughts echoing in my mind
Release me from these unbounded chains
Set me free from my own self
Please take me home
And break these walls of distress
Take me home
Set me free
Release me
Again

I BECOME
Cris Fernandes
I’m not afraid anymore
To unveil my deepest secrets
I feel and I heal
I hurt and I burn
Come lick my wounds
I walk over your shadow
To cope with my burning sorrow
No longer a slave to your desire
No ties and nothing left to hide
In your fears I wander
From your tears I am stronger
You made so complete, so full of shit
I’m the liar, the masochist and the hypocrite
I’m your poison, your addiction, your thoughts, your desire
I became what you want
I’m all!
In your fears I wander
From your tears I am stronger
Take a look at me now
This is what I have become
This is what you made me, it is your desire
I am your creation; I’m your own monster
I’m all that you want
I’m all!
In your fears I wander
From your tears I am stronger
Take a look at me now
This is what I have become

WAR AGAINST ALL ODDS
Cris Fernandes
A train of thought reveals the unexpected
Obscure shadows cover the skies
Strong stance to outrun the desperate sound
Black hole force to suck us now
Fight the war against all odds
Numbers are against our hopes
Feel the anger
Forevermore
Words were met with nothing but scorn
Reasoning to go beyond this road of thorns
Fight the war against all odds
Numbers are against our hopes
Feel the anger
Forevermore
The odds against us means nothing at all
Infinite possibilities to bring you down
Fight the war against all odds
Numbers are against our hopes
Feel the anger
Forevermore

THE LAST STAND
Cris Fernandes
My land
Time won’t heal
No concession
My hands are tied, my eyes shut blind
My paradise denied
Never let them take away our pride
We must feed our freedom with strive
Survivors
This is the last stand
The last ones
We never give in
Touch the land and feel our home
Open your eyes to see what you’ve done
Hear us out and our nature’s cry
Shut your mouth to your sadistic lies
You shall face the wrath of our gods
You own a weapon and nothing more
Will keep fighting till our end
Till you meet your final judgment
Survivors
This is the last stand
The last ones
We never give in
Our land
Time won’t heal
No concession
Our hands are tied, our eyes shut blind
Our paradise denied
Survivors
This is the last stand
The last ones
We never give in
Denial
To your demands
Get back!
Together we stand
This is who we are!
