lodged in your shatterproof beauty
you feel invincible
surrounded just by the finest
you feed your ego  

secured by looking glasses
you face the reality
I came to you armed with compassion
willing to strip down all your barricades

your shatterproof winter falls into my eyes
I looked for a shelter but fell in an ambush
I feel trapped outside your world

a full-scheduled alienation
no time for immediacy
lavish celebrations
to glorify your counterfeit success

your everlasting slyness
makes you permanently fall from grace
I came to you armed with compassion
willing to strip down all your barricades

your shatterproof winter falls into my eyes
I looked for a shelter but fell in an ambush
I feel trapped outside your world

now a brand new aura on my skin
I’ll keep my strength for what is worth
I’m sure this time I’ll win again

I don't know what I achieved and what I became
in all this time I spent anywhere the rush of things did wipe me out

wait for me
this unforgiving pace of time
it goes so fast and I'm left behind
I stopped my march reaching out for help

and I cannot see the end 
all my efforts all my hopes
to give this world another go are lost
down in the deepest blue
where everything is staying still
and no one wants to rise above and see the truth 

relentless is the backlash of my act
I play dead waiting to attack no defeat no victory

a shining star will guide me in your gloomy land
showing where truth is concealed  I slowly choke my great ideals

one more chance
is what I ask down on my knees
staring at your still anatomy
your aching pose in this silent place  

don't fall don't fall apart rise and see the truth

and I cannot see the end 
all my efforts all my hopes
to give this world another go are lost
down in the deepest blue
where everything is staying still
and no one wants to rise above and see the truth 

a silence too hard to swallow
while I'm walking down the street
hanging on a too slight shadow   
those sound like slow
compared to my heartbeat

don't think of it as a dream      
as it is much longer than it seems
and don't think of it as a nightmare
'cause it is gonna last forever

then sad and willing I'll take my seat          
I'll keep on staring at this blank sheet
and it's just like a sweet doubt
this scary dream that wears me out

don't think of it as a dream      
as it is much longer than it seems
and don't think of it as a nightmare
'cause it is gonna last forever

the stream of the river
the wind from the east
the hard life you experienced
it is all smoothed down
suicidal brother tired of life
he couldn’t find meanings under the regime

the scar on your face
and your scared ego
full ashtrays in
cold concrete rooms
wrong places to stay
no way to fulfil
your innocent spirit
in this tainted world
in this tainted world

in the golden lane of silence
I found purity in your gestures
through the tortuous path of sacrifice
you shaped your body and soul
how can it be that your eyes still shines?
after such long monochrome life…

wrong places to stay
no way to fulfil
your innocent spirit
in this tainted world
in this tainted world

another end of a day like others just leading to nowhere
where everything is misunderstanding and working hard for your lowlife

staring at the blurry sky with your tired empty eyes 
you cannot reach the top and you don't know who to blame

you follow the law of life avoidance
acting noir just to be in discordance
artificially happy dramatically cunning

a controlled freedom of choice
makes your life a complete abstention
from the necessary painful redemption

it's a dirty human stain you carry along the way
you should have tried harder to make dreams coming true

my imitation of your lies interpretation of distant cries 
your second-rate abilities suffocate your few qualities

you follow the law of life avoidance
acting noir just to be in discordance
artificially happy dramatically cunning

a controlled freedom of choice
makes your life a complete abstention
from the necessary painful redemption

my imitation of your lies
interpretation of distant cries

I don't know what I achieved and what I became
in all this time I spent anywhere the rush of things did wipe me out

wait for me
this unforgiving pace of time
it goes so fast and I'm left behind
I stopped my march reaching out for help

and I cannot see the end 
all my efforts all my hopes
to give this world another go are lost
down in the deepest blue
where everything is staying still
and no one wants to rise above and see the truth 

relentless is the backlash of my act
I play dead waiting to attack no defeat no victory

a shining star will guide me in your gloomy land
showing where truth is concealed  I slowly choke my great ideals

one more chance
is what I ask down on my knees
staring at your still anatomy
your aching pose in this silent place  

don't fall don't fall apart rise and see the truth

and I cannot see the end 
all my efforts all my hopes
to give this world another go are lost
down in the deepest blue
where everything is staying still
and no one wants to rise above and see the truth

was it so different years ago?
you used to live in cities
where the trees where made of stone
you could not see the stars
cause of toxic clouds

how does it differ now?
no more dominating truth
to drive you through
your liquid moral drowned
in the river of poisoned lives

how can't you see?
far from your closed city
you still persuade the science
for radioactive crimes

erasing all the signs
of the almighty in your eyes
won't expiate the pride
for daring the divine

time is over to make amends
a change of mind is not foreseen
all the colours you turned grey
eternally will lay in the east of your soul

how can't you see?
far from your closed city
you still persuade the science
for radioactive crimes

fearsome calmness
taming silence

dreary starkness
search for raylights

surrender to evidence
of clear disharmony

this overwhelming noise
deep inside your soul

when days are hollow
you sit tired and just swallow

no one will follow
your tortuous path of sorrow

redeeming the senses
and clearing the conscience

it's time to make amends
it's time to face the consequence

it's a tragical attempt to comfort all of us 
we dare to bring enlightenment disclosing the real proofs

walking on the line backwards to the roots 
collecting all the atoms to shape a new start

arranging all the signs unseen along the way 
wasted by the time twisted by the lies

we've been trying all this time
to find relief in all your promises
that are draining our energies
and dissolve this sense of clarity

and deep in muddy waters far from our homes 
we saw fading glimpses of how it should have gone 

proudly generating false states of euphoria 
we focus on the target and not on unsound methods 

artificially happy, dramatically cunning
    
we've been trying all this time
to find relief in all your promises
that are draining our energies
and dissolve this sense of clarity

striving to preserve a reason for my purity
even loosing the integrity 
dismissing all my choices to prove my authenticity

with such a flood of good faith
getting closer but never succeeding
in this self-absorbing reality
I’m sick of all the human shallowness

struggling through time and space
it doesn’t matter where or when
prospects become fatal knives 
cutting the rope that keeps me on the ground

struggling through time and space
it doesn’t matter where or when
struggling through time and space
the higher I went, the deeper I fell

struggling through time and space
the higher I went, the deeper I fell
