BLACK DRAPE
Birds are creating odd drawings
They're wise, they're flying away
Somewhere the scared ones are talking
Beware what they're saying!
The wind is a stuffy sigh
It's switching off the lights
A storm is coming like a black drape
Someone find me a way to escape!
Soil and atmosphere are a line
Trembling in a lacerated sky
Despite fear, there's no time to cry
Whatever, under rubble, survived…
(Rit:)
Rising walls of water
Giant stones fall down
Unexpected vortex
Like a call from underground
Sudden falls of lava
Burning every shape
Blades of frozen winds
Paralysing everything
Fog and dust are hiding
Each way out
Is it really happening?
I just see the drape
Is it really happening?
Black!
(Rit:)

CARELESS
“Where, where will you walk?
You’re blinded by this fear
What, what will you find?
You’re lost in disbelief
A promised faith is now a buried fairytale
I, I saw through you, I can’t recognize your face”
“Survival is (a) senseless duty
We died long ago
Will the memory of beauty
Preserve your mind and our son?
(Rit:)
I dreamt of apocalypse stealing our lives
And seas carrying monsters with ravenous aims
I dreamt of us underwater
And no one could save us from the danger of life”
“Blood, that slips away, is never coming back
Blood, that guided us, is leaving you today
Unable to embrace
Your arms will lose their strength
Is coldness your last glance?
This careless loneliness
Your wounded feet will stumble without our blessing
And empty shapeless figures will fill your days”
(Rit:)

GREY
Legions of fire everywhere
They burn with no heat
And this lung doesn't breathe
Houses, bridges and fields
That we used to name
Are desolate shells
(Rit:)
Who decided to paint it grey,
To cover colours with dust?
The clouds are falling down day by day
Ruins, in a land of pain
The wind is drawing sadness on sand
And the snow is collapsing our limbs
This road doesn’t end there with the horizon
All we have left is in a bag
We have built a temple to unconcern
A reign of strain and gravity
We face the void in all we see
Leaden steps in a beaten land
(Rit:)
Dying trees stretch their arms
But we can't reach their sap
(Rit:)

The Fallen Ones

THE FALLEN ONES
A march of flesh
They’re hunting flesh
They’re chasing us
‘Cause they don’t recognize man
They ate the world
They eat themselves
Desperate enemies
Hungry for us
(Rit:)
Running and hiding with no place to hide
You’re the reason for us to commit suicide
All the animals died and the beasts remained
Your quarry imprisoned in the cages of pain
You’re looking at the Great Fear
-Or are they just the fallen ones?-
The deepest nightmare is here
…the fallen ones
The scent of blood
They’re hunting blood
Their awful need
Blinded by greed
They ate the world
They eat themselves
Human sacrifices of an
Irreligious cult
(Rit:)

The Greatest Failure

THE GREATEST FAILURE
Why?
You didn’t realize
And you created the big gap in which
We fell
The darkness of your plans
That killed and killed again with no regret
How much pain in Nature’s soul
It couldn’t bear it anymore
The air consumed without knowing
How to breathe
Where are your possessions now
And all the intelligence you were proud of?
Liar! Once you had a choice
And all the chances you did not deserve
(Rit:)
Why?
You didn’t realize
You’ve frozen hope in a handful of money
Life, it couldn’t put it right
The greatest failure of your lack of mind
You waited for the day to end
And left a bomb in your child’s hand
A world of fear and emptiness
Nothing left to learn
(Rit:)

BEHIND
Two separated souls
They govern humankind
A great flow leads the blind
And crushes all the rest
A cape of blame on your weakness..
It will cover identities
A blind window on your feelings
No conscience here
Under the sign of the mighty I
We have broken all ties
Can’t see this far
(Rit:)
In a city that lies
Where souls are left behind
In a city that hides
Under clouded lights
We miss reality

LILIAN (CHANGING SHADES)
Scenes of a million faces here
They’re slipping from some dreams
Look at yourself in this lake
The one you see is me
Lilian
Try to feed life through my veins
It’s not so cruel (if)
We feel the same
Lilian, you seem to paint these days
With colours of grace
And changing shades
Lilian

MY NEXT DAWN
(A) Screaming silence pervades my cries
I hate the deepness in your eyes
Where are my hands?
I won't feel any loss but yours
A golden stone thrown in a well
Abandoned there
(Rit:)
The tears of the world
Are turned into stone
For me your soul
My next dawn
Walking and falling by my side,
-Deadwood-
You never asked why
Your fragile pride
Frozen words in a frozen mind
I'm still breathing,
My disguise,
Did I survive?
Thoughts like water
Dripping from the sky,
A remembrance doesn't lie
It won't fade away
(Rit:)
Black fever revealing this absurdity
Now I sink into my clothes
Useless sand warms up my body…
(Rit:)
The tears of the world
Are turned into stone, my precious son
For me your soul..

AS THE WAVES (ALWAYS RECEDE)
Finally, we reached the place
You are here, am I mistaken?
Missing your voice /Deeply…/
As the light is changing now
I see your strength going down
Into the sea /Fading into a mysterious sea/
So my faith is leaving me
As the waves always recede
Behind their reef /They calm down…/
Water breaking on my thoughts
Your remembrance could join hers
In my embrace
But will this boat carry some hope?
If its arrival is too slow
A misty figure on the horizon
I couldn’t do it, will the sea
Complete the promise that I made
And will it save us from this end?
