I can't remember the last Time it felt good just to Be a person I looked to you to get this Weight off my back but it Kills me to see it was worthless What are you doing to me? I can feel it coming out now Close your eyes and you’ll see We are supreme Cry out in anger with The mess you have made yeah i Thought i could trust you You said that even words can Break a gods heart well Nothing seems to be working What are you doing to me? I can feel it coming out now Close your eyes and you’ll see We are supreme

This has risen up for me Won’t you open up to me And break the outer surface Break the outer surface We don’t have to have this But we both want this right? So let’s take what we are given And flourish in the fires we are born Just back down Go and feed off your fears I’ll be on another tier You won’t ever see me here I guess you’ve got shit to prove Whatever the f*ck you do I won’t wait around for you The battle of the century Fallen lovers with nowhere to flee I have fallen for a serpent One that thinks they’re perfect Take a note of your energy Cus soon enough they’ll be under my sheets and I promise it will hurt you But poisoning your future is so fun Look at me now Go and feed off your fears I’ll be on another tier You won’t ever see me here I guess you’ve got shit to prove Whatever the f*ck you do I won’t wait around for you This has risen up for me Won’t you open up to me And break the outer surface Break the outer surface This has risen up for me Won’t you open up to me And break the outer surface And flourish in the fires we are born This is a message to god What did I do to get this misery I only wanted to move on But it was her who got in my way I’ll do whatever it takes Just plant a sign and I will praise it Cus I am stuck in a groove And I don’t want it

I need your greatest help my friend It’s never too late to make amends This old demon is back again and this time it knows around me This has come up from underneath I need to follow my own believes Will you lovingly whisper to me or will you sharpen every word? It’s been quite some time since we talked about our feelings I see your face in everything oh please god don’t take It away she’s my only release Did you plan to pick me up when I fell down? Or did you like to see me chasing you? Did you ever think that this wasn’t working? I went through hell and I’ll go through you I don’t care if one day you think I’m worthless You’ll see that I am more than happy to leave It’s my job to be the one who sticks with this Please make this easy I just wanna feel free How many times will you step back till you see the bigger picture It’s right here in front of us it just takes a leap of faith If you really believe Did you plan to pick me up when I fell down? Or did you like to see me chasing you? Did you ever think that this wasn’t working? I went through hell and I’ll go through you I don’t care if one day you think I’m worthless You’ll see that I am more than happy to leave It’s my job to be the one who sticks with this Please make this easy I just wanna feel free Wanna feel free Did you plan to pick me up when I fell down? Or did you like to see me chasing you? Did you ever think that this wasn’t working? I went through hell and I’ll go through you I don’t care if one day you think I’m worthless You’ll see that I am more than happy to leave It’s my job to be the one who sticks with this Please make this easy I just wanna feel free I need your greatest help my friend It’s never too late to make amends This old demon is back again and this time it knows around me This has come up from underneath I need to follow my own believes Will you lovingly whisper to me or will you sharpen every word?

Wandering Soul 05:59

I’m tired of fighting this war I see no way out I can’t take the pressure anymore This is not who I really am Would you miss me If I was gone I feel like I don’t belong Will you ever stand by what I say Or will you turn and run away Quiet as the wind We scream louder than light We lead the life of a wandering soul Everything you say We get nothing but pain We are the March of the wandering souls And never will we ask for help Just take what the eagles say Poison has filled my veins No questions leave no cold remains Load the gun and break away Quiet as the wind We scream louder than light We lead the life of a wandering soul Everything you say We get nothing but pain We are the March of the wandering souls And never will we ask for help

Forgive me For I have sinned you my lord Forgive me For I have started a war So fire away And foresee the day When hatred is gave There nothing that’s left For you or for me We’ll die with the wind Forgive me For I have told them the truth Forgive me For they not know of our use They fire away And foresee the day When hatred is gave And nothing is left For life to remain We’ll die with the rest Forgive me For They have sinned you my lord Forgive me For They have started a war We’ll fire away And start off the day When hatred is gave And life is destroyed All hearts are betrayed There’s no love And no chance to live So let’s all begin And call on the end And die for our sins

Sorry I’m broken but love has awoken I’m hurt but I’m better for the pain Words can be kept back but now I have spoken I’m stronger than ever before But how can I live when all my heart is in your hands I promised I’d find a way out I don’t ever wanna live that way Where people fight and die everyday I don’t ever wanna cry in shame because we can’t afford a parking ticket Don’t want money to control our lives Or aliens to take the wildlife Cus I found a way out now let’s live Now that I’ve stepped back I’ve never felt closer I don’t have to lie to tell the truth Now that we’re trying my heart isn’t dying and I can be happy on my own I want to live with your heart in my hands Seen past the dark now the past becomes our plans Cus I said I’d find a way out I don’t ever wanna live that way Where people fight and die everyday I don’t ever wanna cry in shame because we can’t afford a parking ticket Don’t want money to control our lives Or aliens to take the wildlife Cus I found a way out now let’s live Am I everything you want because you’re everything I need? I’ve changed for you will you do the same for me? I don’t ever wanna live that way Where people fight and die everyday I don’t ever wanna cry in shame because we can’t afford a parking ticket Don’t want money to control our lives Or aliens to take the wildlife Cus I found a way out now let’s live I don’t wanna live a hopeless life I want the end to be a hated sight I don’t ever wanna run away when all I need is right here with me How can we say that we wasted time? If we enjoy it is it wasted at all let’s find our way out and let’s live

Orange and Apples 04:16
lyrics

“Perfection is a concept that doesn’t exist. As much as we strive for that utopian life, it will never happen. Very few people seem to understand that. We spend our existence pushing ourselves towards this unattainable belief, but fail to accept the inevitable reality when things go wrong. Something or someone is always to blame. We accuse society of forcing us down the wrong path, rather than accepting our flaws and learning to live with them. We can’t have good times without the bad, we just have to make the best of what we have. Only then, can we truly be at ease with ourselves.” I miss your pure lies from the dead now I don’t really care for you I miss your pure lies from the dead now I don’t really care for you I miss your pure lies from the dead now I don’t really care for you I miss your pure lies from the dead but I don’t really care for you Are you the one I need is this the end?

Once you are breathing there is no going back Without loosing everything that you already have So look away, it’s no option anymore And pray that it never comes back You thought I was broken I just thought way to much Now I’m the one choking and that needs picking up I fell apart, and there’s nothing I can’t feel I’ll pray that it never turns black Yeah my head was misleaded now I’m deep underground Just like everything you faded away, the wax around my flame Once you are breathing there is no going back Without loosing everything that you already have So look away, it’s no option anymore And pray that it never comes back

Welcome to your demise I Hope you like the shame Wanting eternal 9s will Force you fate to shake And she said run never return Step to the other side Reach out to what you want Leave all you need behind Want of a different life is Something I can’t face Love may be by my side But she’s too strong a snake Here is my last goodbye A fall into my heart No one will hear me cry I’ve stayed for far too long Here is my last goodbye A fall into my heart No one will hear me cry I’ve stayed for far too long Here is my last goodbye A fall into my heart No one will hear me cry I’ve stayed for far too long Yeah I’ll blow it away Yeah I’ll blow it away

This world has overcome And my mind is overdone There’s nothing in my soul And nothing to resolve I don’t want this life anymore I can give so much more My mind is in need to be saved I need to be saved My numbers been called So fire away, cus I’ll soon have all the answers My number was pulled It’s time to ascend, cus you all just condescend All the birds flee the skies What was blood now runs dry It’s all worth nothing now No one has fame, yeah everyone’s to blame My number was called So fire away, cus I now have all the answers My numbers was pulled and now I have worth, from the man beyond the stars As the wars break out You think the lost should have never died I understand you must be afraid But please you must know, they return from down below My number was called So fire away, cus I now have all the answers My number was called To take on your fears, cus you’ll never leave his grace My name is everything so fall on your knees, my tears outweigh your worth My number was called to whisper his words Yeah accept you won’t be saved My number was called so fire away, cus time is running backwards my number was called To tear you apart, tear you apart

Does It Matter? 04:38
lyrics

Do we know what is right? And how can I sleep at night? Take me away from this childish hell I have so much more you can stay in your cell Does it matter to you, if we drift away? Do we need to feel? And I will fight for what is real How can we be friends? If you can’t change from our dead end Does it matter at all to you? Do you care for what is good? I don’t think it’s right To make a bond and cut it right I have seen this through And I expect the same from you Why can’t we act like we’re old? Kill the light we made so bold? I can feel a change we really need Time to fill each other’s needs Do we need to feel at home? Does it matter we are alone?

about

Very few people seem to understand the concept of ‘Living on Sixes’. They often strive for perfection and can’t accept it when things inevitably go wrong. Something or someone is always to blame, rather than simply living with life’s flaws. It’s okay to be living at 6/10 because perfection, as much as we want it, doesn’t exist.

We make the best of what we have. This is the theme behind this album. It was written from damaging personal events that in the end led to self improvement and better life on the whole; you can’t have good times without bad times and people seem to forget that.

We don’t like to be limited to just one genre or style, and so every track in this first album has been crafted with that in mind. Every song has been manipulated to have a unique sound compared to the last, in hope of achieving this goal.

Living on Sixes has been in progress since early 2017, and is now ready to be shared. So don’t overthink it, just enjoy.
