1.
Here come your fears, eroding forces, worn out ideals, extinct torches. We will never love again. We haven’t smiled in years. Enough of substance? Alienation? Blood next door. Evolving faces. Living for a cause. Drifting far away. Sleep, weep, a life in awe… And we all die alone, and we all cry alone, and we all die alone.
2.
As long as you trust in yourself this time and not in a fool, we can grow and sharpen our minds. Noone can say, we haven’t seen it coming. Loss will occur, there is nothing to gain. So, let’s shine a light on the darkest days. Do we uphold a vanishing code? We must try, while they betray common values, support social division, reject mutual respect, distort words we say. We must not be silent. No, we can’t wait. They stir up fear and they tear apart. They take the ones from us, that we once loved. When bonds crumble, when friendships break, it is now. We face a new threat day by day and they turn wrong into right. Simple minds and some evil souls set the tone, while our anger rises. One thing you better keep in mind, the more you fight back, the more they attack. They won’t listen to the facts. Talk is in vain, while they betray. And we know we’ve lost a friend. Agitation stole a friend. Deep inside we are the same. I won’t let go. We are the same. I won’t let go. Will you take the bait when the bait is poison? The demagogues are spreading poison.
3.
We turn our backs on what we can see. Are we aware of what we need? Silence ain’t no sort of compassion. We deny our social dependency. Are we afraid? Are we afraid to speak? Are we dead, are we buried alive? We all are fed with a handful of promises. So voracious that we take and take, adore the things that we regret the most. Of course, nobody ever had a trauma. Of course, nobody has got a weak spot. It’s a bleak life. What we live is the daily grind. So, we shut down our minds. We don’t see how we bleed, the dark disease, the way we feel. We suppress our tears while we cheer - la belle indifference. What fails again is understanding. What lacks the most is self-respect. In want of love, what we lose is our empathy. This equals death for you and me.
4.
Endless dedication and aimless moderation. Looking for the answers, never thought about the questions. We had a say, we had a ball wasting gas money right after the show. And besides, tough guy jocks made us smile. Now we are miles apart, yet still a part. Are you with us? Words may last and we may fade away. The match, the spark. Won’t put it aside. Songs of liberation. A prediction of damnation. Picking up the pieces, all our hopes are swept away. Time to regret, time for a rest, cling to a promise that may seem worthless. Grown old youth, out of touch, out of style. Still words mean more than printed letters. Not in a million years, not in our name, will I the fuck give in and accept the blame.

about

Farewell Signs Germany

A group of friends, previously active in bands like Driving The Salt, Red Tape Parade or Bridges Left Burning, whose musical paths have crossed again after many years. Driven by the urge to create an outlet for these negative emotions by forging a contemporary blend of hardcore and punk, mixed with a decent dose of rock and metal, that is still as relevant as in their youth. ... more
