Ever‐distant Songtext
von Thousand Oaks

Cast into the roaring flames
Of this state of degradation
Your choice, suffocate or breathe
There′s no easy way out, can't you see?

Find your salvation while this fucking city is eating all of us
Line up all your expectations and execute them all
Mind your own actions, soon they will not be forgiven anymore
Fear is a more helpless feeling than you could ever know

Corruptible
Don′t say you're unaware
Don't try to tell me it was an honest mistake
Convicted
To witness every day the consequences of our harm
We′re losing all we ever wished for, losing all we fought for


Will you ever go back to the one you were?
Will you hold on to the that ever-distant thought?
I always thought we were carrying the fire
But instead we almost let it die
And to think we only had to try
I always thought we were carrying the fire

Find your salvation while this fucking city is eating all of us
Line up all your expectations and execute them all
Mind your own actions, you′ll come to realize they speak louder than words
Fear is a more helpless feeling than you could ever know

Corruptible
Don't say you′re unaware
Don't try to tell me it was an honest mistake
Convicted to witness every day the consequences of our harm
We′re losing all we ever wished for, losing all we fought for
