Forever

What will I write to be forgiven
What will they say about my act
I cry ‘cause I will loose them
Forever
They will hate me
Forever
Maybe I won’t suffer anymore, I will never know
Maybe my memories will die with me, I will never tell
The air that I breath, my movements
Their faces, their hands used to take me in life
But this time I made my choice
I’ll be alone in the unknown maze
That opens its door to me
My conscience is divided between anguish and resignation
As it spreads inside me I realize: my soul dies
My tears won’t save me now it’s too late to change mind
I will explore for the last time
All the details of my existence
I’d pay you back something I’ve never deserved
You gave me, that has no price: Life
I have all the clearness by my side
But the secret part of me doesn’t want to leave it all
Here is my pain, any sorrow becomes a joy
I have no time left, so I will cling to your memories to let live mine
Don’t forget me, don’t forgive me

Crime Of The Soul

Crime
And now it’s too late
I’ve nothing to loose
I want to go and see
From close this black hole
Twisting inside me
Or am I already down?
Crime of my soul
So damned, tormented
So down, together so cosmic
Guilty to let it come through me and
Made my body and soul
A perfect home for it
This I see now, I found it
It’s when you give up
Surrend, it’s better not to try
To understand my desperation
Hungry destruction
It’s eating me from inside
Weakness
Too huge to limit, too black for stars
Too light for clouds
Now it is me and now it this this
It became strong and has always been
I’m letting it to be in my place
To take control

Prisoners
06:25
|

While we close our eyes
Reflections start to invade our minds
A landscape where thousands f thoughts
Take form, change and fade away
And we see beyond ourselves
And after nothing
Emptiness leaves space to the most
Absolute void, the most complete
Where we know ourselves, where we are true
But we are scared ‘cause maybe we won’t like
What we will know about our soul
On the other side we always try
To avoid to see through the out looking front
To escape from what is real
When this can’t match our expectations
It’s like a narrow prison
We won’t like
Wherever we turn, whatever we see
Reality is the distorted image we live in
And even if scared
It’s a monster we are used to see
Sometimes we feel like prisoners of the mirror
A castle of lies we built with our own hands
We can pay for what is real
But truth has no price
We just have to learn to
Look inside ourselves

Eternal Tragedy
06:39
|

People would never die
For fear to find out darkness
People would never live for fear to suffer again
You are tormented by death thought
You rejoice at eternal life thought eternal life is
Eternal tragedy is
Eternal pain
Not knowing is a great fear
That bends your minds
Curiosity is a risk
Like the last journey with no destination
Death as freedom
Life as a prison
That’s for all mankind
Death as freedom, life as a prison
That’s for all our minds
You are tormented by
Death thought
You rejoice at eternal life is
Tragedy is
Life is
Pain
All is oblivion
You never stop being
Even death can’t erase
The frightful course
Of the eternal tragedy

Outside Of Mercy
06:06

Have you ever seen
Something so rich
Have you ever heard
What do they preach
They judge
They say we must be afraid of him
They say they live in misery
Sometimes the doors are closed for you
Destroy this ring that chokes you all
Sitting on a chair that we pay
They live in case
“surrend yourself, obey!” “Succumb to what we say!”
Is it right or wrong?
“your thought is dead ‘cause we are strong”
Artificial sacrifice is their law
They say they’ll save your soul from hell
‘til now is them the hell on earth
Their stupid words will buy your soul
The unknown reign remains
Like a dream in your minds
To wash away your sins
Church is an outside of mercy
You’ll see your sin is living for them
And soon you’ll face alone your doom
Destroy this ring that chokes you all
They say we must be afraid of him
They say they live in misery

Like A Stone
06:08

Sight didn’t change
In his eyes days have gone by
Only his fantasy could
Touch his dream
Never been able to make it happen now and then
Attack, revenge against those years
That can’t be replaced
An easy way to accept reality, to see yourself
The way you’d like, not blaming yourself
Victim as you believe you’ve never been
You are your own enemy
And now you scream your anger against
Those who are still in time
Loosing once more your life
Piece by piece
A stone full of hope
That nothing is true
Wishing yourself good luck for a better day
Tired believer of living young days
With stronger will
Like present is just a mistake
You wouldn’t like to have done
He rides on the wings of the past
With the illusion of flying
Once more upon that wave
Of the sea of hope
That will never come back

Life Expression
06:28
|

|
How nice would it be to fly
Just the idea to hold on tight destiny
Find a support
To thrust yourself forward
So strongly
Almost dreaming, a rush
Eyes shut and bright
For the missed pleasure
Of this time
Talking about
What is going to be later
It is nonsense
If one could be born again
Just for the wish of dying
Ecstasy is oo precious a thing
And the moment is only one for a life
Let the air caress you
Your lips never smiled
One can’t know why
But now
They show for the first time
A life expression
In nothing
Not to suffer
To continue to hope
To start to dream

Dictator
06:11
|

|
What is it that you want to be
A pain
For those who scare you to lead
What is wrong in your head
What makes you believe that you rule
Keeping men far
From that dream that you call danger
But it’s their life
Your behavior will no longer
Hide this lie
Who you wanted to be it’s an illusion
So that What you are not they won’t be
Sweeping dreams away, confining lives
You inflict this pain in your way
Make it look like a gift
So that those really believe to deserve it
And be grateful to you
This is how you win
But yourself knows fear is not respect
Man is the rule to himself
What belongs to a life
No one can decide
What’s right or wrong
Time says you’ll be
Debtor, convict to loose
No weaker, no stronger
No more time to inject fear
