Solve Me
03:13
|
|||
|
Woke up
ready to match my beast
while keeping tight
both my mind and my fist
Diluted by fears
fake and yet smell cage
A voice urging on: "Be a sage"
Solve me
It's drugging me
Stuck in weariness and on repeat
Bless me
with the holy wine of change
And fortify
All my foes to derange
Equipped with my wounds
potions for crossroads
let me decrypt my life's codes

Misty Trips
03:10
|
|||
|
I'm in the mist
of all that I've missed
I do believe I'm done
No one can help
no brother, no friend
not even myself can I stand
My blood is hot
and can't help those thoughts
only revenge do I demand
And when I dream
in the poisoned skies and fields
perishing through toxic miracles
All that I loved
have betrayed me and then gone
turning away from me
And then I see you
my parts that you chewed
but also the smell of your skin
Red lips and hair
should pay no more care
or letting myself to give in
I said, red lips and hair
should been aware
that this is the color of sin
Why should I live
In the loneliness and grief
While I’m surrounded by felicity
And though it’s not fair
Even whatever’s up there
Doesn’t care about me

This is a common land
fairies sing at night
be steady don't fall back
knowledge shows your rights
We have been there before
we recognize our mother
such a marvelous sight to behold
treat it like there's no other
We all will meet in the yard of the strangers
sit side by side so naive like teenagers
This is a common land
dragons fly in the sky
ask why they build on sand
sleep with an open eye
You shall not be there again
you'll be the first my brother
so much of life to gain
of new way’s be the father

Just a Sweet Melody
03:57
|
|||
|
All your memories
have now disappeared
the only thing that's left
is just a sweet melody
Dreams and sceneries
by realness have been seared
your inner bliss was wrecked
condemned in mediocrity
A smooth ceremony
your sobbing and your tears
before the sun is set
the bug will be a butterfly
- Why don't you look to the sky?
- Cause I'm too scared to fly
- Where is your love?
- Don't ask of what's gone by

Ariadne's Thread
03:35
|
|||
|
What are you trying to show?
What face do you prefer?
I smell your fears
but I can't face your eyes
Who are they to make you choose
what god you're made of?
Still sense them, but you can hardly
catch your dreams
Ariadne's thread
Don't forget where you come from
Don't lose your Ariadne's thread
Cause that's how you will find yourself

Evening Walk
03:12
|
|||
|
In the evening I'll get out to walk
by luck heading towards to knock
on your peaceful side lusting to talk
my deficiency now can I sock
See the freedom you're holding for me
If Ι am anything it's yours, so give in
to a cloud made of sugar I picture with you
veils of scruple at last can I strew
As I walk through the choices I make
realize that the world is a lake
and all us children are islands that rake
one another to love and to wake
With an evening walk
I get free I can fly like a hawk
My implicit shock, now is unlocked
I've got freedom I'm keeping for you
If you're willing to risk, then I am too
to the most frightening free fall ever lived by you and me
our only path now can I see

Inside War
03:07
|
|||
|
The phrase "Forgive me, I need to go" scratches the wall
whispering "Don't leave me" you stand shaking at the door
Calling inside war
I will come for you again
I will come for you when I'll have found a way to love myself again
It's been a long time; don't say you can't see at all
That line so close, please release me so I go
I'm calling inside war
I will come for you again
I will come to take you where we used to be, together, again

Face Your Idols
04:44
|
|||
|
Face your idols, face your gods
It's time to bear your own thoughts
Don't mind the fear and pain
such effort brings
keep up the flame
Become the man
your soul dreams of
your mental borders
must get rid of
See and hear
Lust to stand on your own feet
to find yourself, your limits to beat
lust to leave till the edge of life
to love, to hate, and dream and fight
See the mirror and promise that man
to do your best, as much as you can
and when you'll reach the end of your path
you will be you and free of your wrath
Face your idols, face your gods
through no one's eyes must you watch
Sweet is the breeze of freedom
just let it in, unlock your kingdom

Bring Me Home
04:41
|
|||
|
Through the chains I am reborn
Through the freedom I am strong
see their eyes, see their lies
see the sickness in their smiles
Human touch, human kills
human praying for his sins
Human touch, human kills
human praying for his sins
War is over we were told
can you tell me who's at fault
lies, lies are what you preach
all the nation is a beach
He creates, he destroys
having fun with human toys
He creates, he destroys
having fun with human toys
Nowhere to go, nowhere to stay
Am I so free or am I enslaved?
Find me shelter, bring me home
please be tender, for now I'm lost
Empty stomachs, scared eyes
shifty buggers took their lives
lies, lies are what you preach
all the nation is a bitch

Waltz of Fear
04:24
|
|||
|
Our world is so cruel you had whispered to me once
And then you walked away searching for help in dust
You wouldn't feel nor would you see
that all that you need is hiding behind doors of fear
In your deserted lands often dive in and seek
looking for anything that could make you believe
you are so strong, please don't get lost
But, if you're to go, tell me what your mourn is for
Life is short and you know that you can't spend your time
Living lies, you forget, but again you get down and all goes round
until the day you see you've built your own cage.
Let me in and I promise you'll see what I see
Caring people, a treasure of goodness
and all you'd thought that would be worthless
The beauty of this world is right here
behind fear.
I have days that I think that cruelty is real
They're the days when you seem that you'll never be healed
I beg for a sign, that all's alright
and just before death line, you'll come to surface and shine.
I know you won't accept even don't understand
my words which are your voice that you've buried in sand
Listen to me, let yourself be
I'll always be near, so go and get free of your fear

Apolis
03:13
|
|||
|
Skies of purple
and lands with orange trees
flying in innocence and go by
my friends in Apolis
Your dreams are useless
they're living in a dream
There is no effort, no success, them:
a strange and lonely stream
Come closer, watch them
be quiet so you'll hear
don't try to imitate, look like them
be born and you'll be here
What makes them all be
by themselves and all at peace?
They whisper: "Look! The Sun Is Falling;
in blue and deep cerise"
