There's something wrong with me There's something wrong with me There's something wrong with me I can't get over it There's something wrong with me There's something wrong with me There's something wrong with me I can't live like this Treat me with silence Dress me for violence Too late for nice now So don't act surprised just 'cause I can't take no more Nothing's like before Drag me to your trial Keep up your denial I can't take no more I can't take no more If you see out of my eyes Just one day Would you care to believe or Turn away? There's something wrong with me There's something wrong with me

I can’t decide what you deny I would’ve liked for you to try for you and I Something wicked washes over me But I cannot pin it down for long Feels like life is catching up with me And it makes me feel so small Well, at least I feel something But I can’t remember where I’ve been And I can’t explain the state I’m in Can’t begin to explain... Something stares me in the face again It’s a different point of view It’s time that we wake up! But I can’t remember where I’ve been And I can’t explain the state I’m in Well I think we’ve finally crossed the line And I fear we’re running out of time Hold on On to what we’ve got Just hold on ‘Till we figure it out But I can’t remember where I’ve been And I can’t explain the state I’m in Well I think we’ve finally crossed the line And I fear we’re running out of time

Blackout 03:56
Wake me up when the light's back on They still dance but the sound is gone So I roam the streets for saviours To turn night into day I hear echoes of their voices But they're so far away Power out! System down! Courage don't fail me now Light me up Show me how To survive when all I see is the blackout Power's down but the show goes on Crowds disperse to await the sun But I'm trapped with my reflection In the last dying light Standing at the intersection Do I flee? Do I fight? Power out! System down! Courage don't fail me now Light me up Show me how To survive when I can't see It’s a losing fight When the world’s not right And I feel just like I’m falling There’s a distant light Almost out of sight And I see a night with no end Have I lost my will to care? Power out! System down! Courage don't fail me now Light me up Show me how To survive when I can't see Lights fade in as the clock strikes 12 Cheers ring out I embrace myself

So I Run 03:59
I'm already much more But I'm holding on to what I was before I remain so unsure And I can't find a cure So I run Far away Nothing more You can say So I run Far away Please convince me to stay I've been wasting away for years Light, take me home I've been dreading the dawn Night, let me know Am I ready to go? All the noise in my mind Shuts me down and makes me hard to find When the sound leaves my head I'll be battling the peace instead So I run Far away Is there more You can say? So I run Far away Please convince me to stay

Before I Die 04:18
My world is split in two What am I to do? The sun is peeking through But I don't know it Still I try To untie The bonds that keep me lying on the ground Let me rise higher I've taken care of everyone And never questioned why Let me rise higher I'm taking on whatever comes I need a chance to fly Before I die There's something in the way Of what I have to say It's like this every day But I can't make it go away Bruised and scarred From the start So I could bare my heart to everyone Let me rise higher I've taken care of everyone And never questioned why Let me rise higher I'm taking on whatever comes I need a chance to fly Before I die I'm breaking through a day of endless night Before I die I'm leaving all my demons out of sight Before I die You'll feel my fire burning from inside Before I die Won't leave without a fight Let me rise higher I've taken care of everyone And never questioned why Let me rise higher I'm taking on whatever comes I need a chance to fly Before I die

Find a Way 03:37
There's a voice in my head It's screaming it wants me dead or worse Is it something you said? I cannot recall I can't think at all Help me out! Help me out! I've been brought down by less I'm fuelled by distress I can't second-guess myself I need to find a better way To help me deal with this I need to face my disarray To help me heal again There's a storm on the rise It's eating at me from the inside Everything has gone wrong It's hard to stay strong When I don't belong with me I need to find a better way To help me deal with this I need to colour in the grey To help me heal and mend Can you feel me? Can you shield me? Can you hold me? Stop the hurting Can you hear me? And be near me? Can you help me? Can you help me! I think I found a better way To help me deal with this I think I found a better way To help me deal with this I found a finally A better way To deal with this I think I found a I feel I'm Finally found a way

Frozen lights greet us miles away Sudden smiles lost in time and space You look for a place You search for a face Like you have been for days There's no one there You yell to the sky But get no reply Now you can deny It's up to you Paralyzed fingers on display Compromised words that wash away You sense that you're strong So what could go wrong? Now you don't belong inside yourself You yell to the sky But get no reply Now you can deny that There's no time left for us There's no light left for us There's no time left for us There's no light for us

about

The Line was written during isolation using whatever equipment we could get our hands on within our four walls. It is the first release on our own new label because we want to make music that we like, on our own terms and with no compromise.
The Line is a new beginning, a line in the sand.
