In the history of the human race
Of all the inspirations for the separation of man from his true tribal culture
Of all the inspirations for the acts of violence from one man onto another
From one nation onto another, from one oppressor onto the oppressed
There is no more guilty party and inspiration than those books known
As the Holy Bible, the Koran, and the Bagavad Gita to spread separation of mankind
The Bible is bullshit, the Koran is a lie
The Bagavad Gita did not fall from the sky
These are the books that were written by men
They&#8217;ve caused wars, now follow if you can
They took away our love and gave us fear
Tried to make us hate the one who put us here
Then they took our sacred songs and made them wrong
Then they took away our prayers and gave us theirs

It&#8217;s time for you to recognize your brother<br />

<p>The Bible is bullshit!</p>

Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I&#8217;m far away from home
And I&#8217;ve been facing this alone
For much too long
I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In my tangled state of mind
Ive been looking back to find
Where I went wrong.
Too much love will kill you
If you can&#8217;t make up your mind
Torn between the lover
And the love you leave behind
You&#8217;re headed for disaster
Cause you never read the signs
Too much love will kill you
Every time&#8230;
I&#8217;m just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems like there&#8217;s no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine
Now all I ever do is bring you down
How would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can&#8217;t you see that it&#8217;s impossible to choose
No there&#8217;s no making sense ...]]></description>

Every way I go I&#8217;m bound to lose.</p>
<p>Too much love will kill you<br />
Just as sure as none at all<br />
It&#8217;ll drain the power that&#8217;s in you<br />
Make you plead and scream and crawl<br />
And the pain will make you crazy<br />
You&#8217;re the victim of your crime<br />
Too much love will kill you<br />
Every time&#8230;</p>
<p>Too much love will kill you<br />
It&#8217;ll make your life a lie<br />
Yes, too much love will kill you<br />
And you wont understand why<br />
You&#8217;d give your life, you&#8217;d sell your soul<br />
But here it comes again<br />
Too much love will kill you<br />
In the end&#8230;<br />
In the end.</p>

Visions of the things to be
The pains that are withheld for me
I realize and I can see&#8230;
That suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please.
The game of life is hard to play
I&#8217;m gonna to lose it anyway
The losing card I&#8217;ll someday lay
So this is all I have to say&#8230;
That suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please.
The sword of time will pierce our skins
It doesn&#8217;t hurt when it begins
But as it works its way on in
The pain grows stronger, watch it grin.
And suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
and I can take or leave it if I please.
A brave man once requested me
To answer questions that are the key,
&#8220;Is it to be or not to be?&#8221;
and I replied &#8220;oh why ask me?&#8221;
And suicide is painless

Bangladesh, Bangladesh
When the sun sinks in the west
Die a million people of the Bangladesh
The story of Bangladesh
Is an ancient one again made fresh
By blind men who carry out commands
Which flow out of the laws upon which nation stands
Which is to sacrifice a people for a land
Bangladesh, Bangladesh
Bangladesh, Bangladesh
When the sun sinks in the west
Die a million people of the Bangladesh
Once again we stand aside
And watch the families crucified
See a teenage mother&#8217;s vacant eyes
As she watches her feeble baby try
To fight the monsoon rains and the cholera flies
And the students at the university
Asleep at night quite peacefully
The soldiers came and shot them in their beds
And terror took the dorm awakening shrieks of dread
And silent frozen forms and pillows drenched in red
Bangladesh, Bangladesh
Bangladesh, Bangladesh
When the sun sinks in the west
Die a million people of the Bangladesh

Die a million people of the Bangladesh</p>
<p>The story of Bangladesh<br />
Is an ancient one again made fresh<br />
By blind men who carry out commands<br />
Which flow out of the laws upon which nation stands<br />
Which is to sacrifice a people for a land</p>
<p>Bangladesh, Bangladesh<br />
Bangladesh, Bangladesh<br />
When the sun sinks in the west<br />
Die a million people of the Bangladesh</p>
<p>Once again we stand aside<br />
And watch the families crucified<br />
See a teenage mother&#8217;s vacant eyes<br />

<p>And the students at the university<br />

<p>Bangladesh, Bangladesh<br />
Bangladesh, Bangladesh<br />
When the sun sinks in the west<br />
Die a million people of the Bangladesh</p>
<p>Did you read about the army officer&#8217;s plea<br />
For donor&#8217;s blood? It was given willingly<br />
By boys who took the needles in their veins<br />
And from their bodies every drop of blood was drained<br />
No time to comprehend and there was little pain</p>
<p>And so the story of Bangladesh<br />
Is an ancient one again made fresh<br />
By all who carry out commands<br />
Which flow out of the laws upon which nations stand<br />
Which say to sacrifice a people for a land</p>
<p>Bangladesh, Bangladesh<br />
Bangladesh, Bangladesh<br />
When the sun sinks in the west<br />
Die a million people of the Bangladesh</p>

Collecting all your trophies in a shrine

A home page was all you really needed
To seem like a success but not a geek

Technology was moving rather quickly
And the next thing you needed was a blog

I&#8217;m told the Twitterverse is full of rubbish<br />
But most of us are actually quite refined</p>
<p>We validate each other&#8217;s insecurities<br />

And try to self-promote without being caught</p>

		<description><![CDATA[How many days since we&#8217;ve spoken
How many times have you tried
To mend the pieces of my broke-broken heart
Don&#8217;t tell me everything&#8217;s over
Don&#8217;t take the sun from my eye
It&#8217;s much too late to be alone
When our love grows old
And the flower gets cold
I will scream out, should I live
Til there is no room to die
When the colors fade, on the world we&#8217;ve made
I will keep on trying, long after the flame is dying
Too late, too long to mention
Too wide to keep it inside
This renovation of my wound-wounded soul
You are the wind of adventure
You are the sun in my eye
You are the one who keeps me whole

One of favourite songs by ATB, 9th track from the album &#8220;No Silence&#8221;.

To mend the pieces of my broke-broken heart</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t tell me everything&#8217;s over<br />
Don&#8217;t take the sun from my eye<br />
It&#8217;s much too late to be alone</p>
<p>When our love grows old<br />
And the flower gets cold<br />
I will scream out, should I live<br />
Til there is no room to die</p>
<p>When the colors fade, on the world we&#8217;ve made<br />
I will keep on trying, long after the flame is dying</p>
<p>Too late, too long to mention<br />
Too wide to keep it inside<br />
This renovation of my wound-wounded soul</p>
<p>You are the wind of adventure<br />
You are the sun in my eye<br />
You are the one who keeps me whole</p>
