Lyrics

Howling at the full moon
Fight against the protests
We have no function to cry...

When was the day, that we lost our souls
Forgot about myself, forgot about instinct
Artificial land scapes, and living aspetic
We just stared at the full broken skies

On&on& we're rusting
But we will not stop breathing the air
 
Hello...

Howling at the full moon
Fight against the protests
We have no function to cry
Dreaming inside of the dream 
Burning like a bug in a flame
Give us the reason to be here...

An aggressive guitar on an impressive rock number. Emotional vocals are also a must listen.
