Please stop! I see you walking fast.
I can understand that you are in a hurry.
This dirty rain now is falling so hard
and soaking your expensive signed dress.
Maybe you're thinking I'm high,
I’m waiting the next dose of crack or heroin.
I know you got it wrong,
The fear paralyzes your legs
the sweat runs down your back.
Here there could be your mother
who implores you.
I've just asked for protection
you're slipping on my blood.
Let's wipe out the indifference
And now save your soul.
The bitter taste of regret
over the lips when you are able to
open up your eyes again.
Come on! I'm still waiting for you
the pain seems to increase
while you're running away.
My eyelids are closed,
my breath becomes so slow.
The darkness turns off
the hope of a better world.
Time is running so slow
While I'm trying to catch
what remains, what remains of my life.
My broken teeth beat the time.
Now my nails are the only things
that separate me from death.
Here there could be your mother
who implores you.
I've just asked for protection
you're slipping on my blood.
Let's wipe out the indifference
And now save your soul.
The bitter taste of regret
over the lips when you are able to
open up your eyes again.
Open up your eyes again,
open up your eyes.
Before it's too late.
Under this grave your sense of blame
rests in peace with your shame.
Now I pray for you,
I leave you with the memory
of your family
you're blaming yourself
but it's too late to save them.
Now you embrace their bodies
and you don't care your shirt's turning red.
Slam a fist on the floor
Why the world is a place so bad?
You wonder why no one
was able to stop
this unstoppable walk.
Try thinking for a minute,
for a second, for an instant,
your acts change the lives of people.
The bitter taste of regret
over the lips when you are able to
open up your eyes again.
open up your eyes again,
open up your eyes.
before it's too late.
Here there could be your mother
who implores you.
I've just asked for protection
you're slipping on my blood.
Let's wipe out the indifference
And now save your soul.

Hot coffee burns my mouth,
I been staring in a dream
The money would be good,
I think but not as good as clean
I would have more sense if I could
sense what I could have I'm learning
things about myself that I never knew I had.
My mind, can't stop the things
that make me want it
My mind, can't stop these things
My mind, has enough to do
without you on it
My mind, can't wait to see you
try and stop it
I've held my eyes wide open but it's
very hard to see
The slimy hidden dangers unless
you've got ESP
I would have more sense if I could
sense what I could have I'm learning
things about myself that I never knew I had.
My mind, can't stop the things
that make me want it
My mind, can't stop these things
My mind, has enough to do
without you on it
My mind, can't wait to see you
try and stop it
I want some kind of contact with you,
you must admit I haven't bugged you
So you're due for some annoyance,
the last three months you've had enjoyment
Out of watching them contain it,
uninvited you obtained it
From the unsuspecting shamless
but you're not exactly blameless
My mind, has enough to do
without you on it
My mind, can't stop the things
that make me want it
My mind, has enough to do
without you on it
My mind, has enough to do with.
My mind, can't stop the things
that make me want it
My mind, can't stop these things
My mind, has enough to do
without you on it
My mind, can't wait to see you
try and stop it
Try and stop it, try and stop it.

The Hunt
04:53
|
|||
It's always been there
a shadow with no name
ready for the hunting
I guess who's the prey today
Right behind the corner
walking by my side
there's nothing I can do
except running and try to hide
I wish I'd close my eyes and see this fade away
One try to play a game that's never ending
roll the dice, wake up a brand new day has started again
It takes your breath away
it feels like I'm dying
it's killing me, it's killing you
the mind that floats away
I wish I'd cry
The hunt is on this time.
It's time to play now
I'm ready for the fight
chasing the target
nothing's gonna stop me tonight
scratching the surface
I can see your shape
no need to hunt you down
cause now I know we're both the same
I wish I'd close my eyes and see this fade away
now I can close my eyes and see you fade away
One try to play a game that's never ending
roll the dice, wake up a brand new day has started again
It takes your breath away
it feels like I'm dying
it's killing me, it's killing you
the mind that floats away
I wish I'd cry
The hunt is on today...
I am the prey!
It's inside of me
It's inside of you and
we're able to resist
We'll never let it go
Last try to play this game this is the end
Let's roll the dice I'm up, my brand new day has started again
I take your breath away
I see you're drowning
I'm killing you, we're killing it
no need to cry.
The hunt is on today...
I am the prey!
It's time to play now
I'm ready for the fight
chasing the target
nothing's gonna stop me tonight
scratching the surface
I can see your shape
no need to hunt you down
cause now I know we're both the same
I wish I'd close my eyes and see this fade away

Digging Under Your Skin
04:05
|
|||
Nightmare comes when you wake up
The mirrors stretch what you are
The lies have built a distorted image of yourself.
Destroying yourself, you'll never find
this absurd concept of perfection.
The anger against the world has turned into suffering.
Lights focus over you when you're alone, vulnerable and lost.
A thousand fingers point at you waiting for your next mistake.
I don't want to force myself
to look at your semblance
I'll discover your worth
Digging under your skin.
Innocence that you have lost
step by step you're growing up
The beauty vanishes like grey smoke in a breeze.
Castle collapses on you,
everytime you remove the crown.
Now you know, vanity is an altar
from which you cannot fall down!
I don't want to force myself
to look at your semblance
I'll discover your worth
Digging under your skin.
Now I understand that
a gentle heart is an easy prey.
The world slams against your shell
while you’re just trying to cover it!
Give your heart to the one
that appreciate your flaws
and laugh of you tenderly
when you are clumsy
and without sensuality.
Your beauty is greater
than your appearance
I don't want to force myself
to look at your semblance
I'll discover your worth
Digging under your skin.
Now I understand that
a gentle heart is an easy prey.
The world slams against your shell
while you’re just trying to cover it!

Man VS Beast
03:58
|
|||
The free will is the line
that separates human beings
The difference between
men and a herd of wolves
You can pray, you can fight
or choose to be a dreamer.
Light your conscience…
and change the world!
Can you talk about stories or experiencies
that you've not lived?
Could you show me how my life
would be better with all your learnings?
Can you prove me how prayers or blessings
can save a life?
Faith's giving me the answers
but a priest won't cure my injuries.
The free will is the line
that separates human beings
The difference between
men and a herd of wolves
You can pray, you can fight
or choose to be a dreamer.
Light your conscience…
and change the world!
Does God help me find a job? Are his miracles
feeding my children?
Does the fear of divine judgement clean
(the) streets from evil?
Father, I look inside myself. I Find the Man,
I find the Beast!
Hell and Heaven can wait for me,
that's me building my destiny!
The free will is the line
that separates human beings
The difference between
men and a herd of wolves
You can pray, you can fight
or choose to be a dreamer.
Light your conscience…
and change the world!
Even if I'll be alone! Don't save me…
Even if I'll be alone! Don't help me…
Even if I'll be alone! Give me the chance to see
the shadow of my soul. Even if I'll be alone!
The free will is the line
that separates human beings
The difference between
men and a herd of wolves
You can pray, you can fight
or choose to be a dreamer.
Light your conscience…
and change the world!

Brick After Brick
04:34
|
|||
I see my ambitions falling down
from my sweaty hands, and crash
Like a child made of glass
who's learning to walk in the dark.
I’m trying in vain to rise
On a floor covered in fragments
of a thousand broken dreams
and useless sacrifices.
Brick after brick I've built myself
Leaving behind every single excess
I know I make you just feel ashamed
I will give you my blessing, while life will show you the bill.
I chose to live a simple life
And broke the working chains
Less money, a modest car
keep away your shining rat cage!
I prefer to give you all the rights
but I'll never throw dust
on the capacity of my brain.
I still enjoy the life.
Brick after brick I've built myself
Leaving behind every single excess
I know I make you just feel ashamed
I will give you my blessing, while life will show you the bill.
Show me what it would be living a dignified life
when you have no time to think about yourself.
Life slips away while you're fighting your inner strife.
I use to think about the time I lost the sweat I dropped
wasting money on every unsuccessful intuition
Useless plans of career like knives on my bleeding throat
The shivers of every idea, buried in a working class grave.
Brick after brick I've built myself
Leaving behind every single excess
I know I make you just feel ashamed
I will give you my blessing, while life will show you the bill.
Come on, I'm ready! Come on, I'm ready!
Show me what it would be living a dignified life
when you have no time to think about yourself.
Life slips away while you're fighting your inner strife.
Come on, I'm ready! Come on, I'm ready!

Back To Sleep
04:57
|
|||
Every morning I wake up with
your scent over me.
Even If your side of the bed
is getting colder.
I use to say to myself
This is the last time
I close my eyes, you are still here
Please go back to sleep tonight.
I let your hands slip and hold
your memory.
Please go back to sleep tonight.
Leave this home and find
a place in my heart.
Daylight comes, and you're still here,
looking thorn and tired.
How come your breath
is so damned slow today?
Now I understand,
I'm just lying to myself.
It's hard to find the strength
to say goodbye.
Please go back to sleep tonight.
I let your hands slip and hold
your memory.
Please go back to sleep tonight.
Leave this home and find
a place in my heart.
Please go back, Please go back,
Please go back to sleep tonight.
I used to say it's the last time,
then I fucked up everything every night
I see your face, it looks so tired,
you're still awake, go back to sleep.
Please go back to sleep tonight.
I let your hands slip and hold
your memory.
Please go back to sleep tonight.
Leave this home and find
a place in my heart.

B.S.O.D.

I've been alone, been lazy, bored of everything.
Useful to everyone and useless to (myself).
A life full of emptiness,
all that I've chosen, was your imposition.
Crying would be just another way
to slip on the wet floor of my consternation.
Now I know what is my path
and I'll follow it in the dark again
I find glory or suffering?
Music is my own way
I'm exploring my heart
(and) this time I'm not afraid!
She makes me feel less alone,
She dries my eyes, encourages me to fight
When I'm knocked down,
when it seems like I'm dying
(She tenderly-always rises me) I'll never stand alone.
My life, a blue screen of death,
My passion greedily devours my brain
but this time I've no regrets.
Now I crawl on the memories
over the time that has been dissipated
I hope that the finish line
never comes as well as my vivid madness.
Music is my own way!
She makes me feel less alone,
She dries my eyes, encourages me to fight
When I'm knocked down,
when it seems like I'm dying
(She tenderly always rises me) I'll never stand alone.
Please, please don't ask me again
(Try to understand, try to understand me)
What I feel when I fly so near to the ground.
Believe me, I do not have anything else
except for flying again.
Music is my own way
She makes me feel less alone,
She dries my eyes, encourages me to fight
When I'm knocked down,
when it seems like I'm dying
(She tenderly always rises me) I'll never stand alone.
Music is my own way
She dries my eyes, encourages me to fight
When I'm knocked down,
when it seems like I'm dying
(She tenderly rises me) I'll never stand alone.

Another Day, Another Way
04:28
|

I want the time to heal
the wounds of a gloomy past
and cover up all bruises
of a teenage loneliness.
I don’t know if the scars
will draw a new hope.
The lies haven't taught me
to lie but live.
The lack of you completes me.
You... try to understand me
all the anger that consumed me
washes away (all) the blame
metabolize every mistake you made
another day, another way
to try to forget you.
I feel the grudge
that's slowly creeping on my back.
the calm after your fall,
the moment I offered you my hand.
Now my eyes are open,
please don't ignore it.
I'm trying to accept you
for who you are without regrets...
The lack of you impairs me.
You... try to understand me
all the emptiness that you created
with your fragility
It's been filled with a life with no regrets.
Another day, another way
to try to forgive you.
Crowd is going away.
The embarassing silence
of our (scared) eyes that met.
Every single word, every single breath,
every single lie I forget.
Now we're here, and you can just…
Try to understand me.
All the rage that blinded me
has left and remains
the picture of the moments that we had.
In this cold day... I grant your pray
and I forgive you.

Cocoon
04:04

Sometimes our life
becomes so fragile
like a feather in a baby’s hand.
If only a breath
could make it fly away
so far away...
Leaving you alone with yourself
only the time for another breath
You should start to run!
I'm not talking about love,
I just wanna give you the courage
to crash your cocoon.
You should be greedy for life,
stand up against defeats
You fall, you get up and go on!
I'm not talking about love,
I just wanna give you the courage
to crash your cocoon.
Live behind
the betrayed promises
the false expectations they instilled.
The judgment of those
who fed you with sterile sights
They starved the dreams of a teen.
Between screams and unspoken words
You can find the right sense
Of everything you choose.
I'm not talking about love,
I just wanna give you the courage
to crash your cocoon.
You should be greedy for life,
stand up against defeats
You fall, you get up and go on!
I'm not talking about love,
I just wanna give you the courage
to crash your cocoon.
Wake up this morning
to decide that living is more than staying alive
Now fight to catch everything that you desire.
Keep in mind this words when someone
will throw water on your fire
There's no shadow if you turn off the light
The brightest stars appears in the darkest night.
What makes life special is only you.
What makes life special is only you.
I'm not talking about love,
I just wanna give you the courage
to crash your cocoon.
You should be greedy for life,
stand up against defeats
You fall, you get up and go on!
I'm not talking about love,
I just wanna give you the courage
to crash your cocoon.
