Gone

Memories of memories
remembrance of hints
helplessly heedless
ghosts of fingerprints.
Farther and farther
blurrier and blurrier.
Craving the days of the spotless mind.
Merrier.
The faster you run
the deeper the rage;
You realize you have been your very own cage.
Your thoughts are cascading
through walls that won't hold.
Breathe it in, breathe it out,
and forget to be bold.
He said: "You are way out of my league."
She said: "Look at yourself, you're amazing."
To which he replied: "It is just the love lense that speaks:
there's a freak underneath what you gazin'."
His mind would tell him, stay, stay, stay.
His heart would tell him, run, run run.
"It's not like you to play this game, so 'way you go"-
-and he was gone.
Fragment by fragment
undress the harnessed.
Let them all hear
what the eyes fail to guess.
Ambiguous eye colors on burned photographs.
Soundless echoes of now long lost laughs.
Unequivocal love for perfection imagined
With sullen dislike bleeding through every margin.
Distracting tasks, two lives to kill time living.
Believe all you want, but seeing is deceiving.
He said: "You are way out of my league."
She said: "Look at yourself you're amazing."
To which he replied: "It is just the love lense that speaks:
there's a freak underneath what you gazin'."
His mind would tell him, stay, stay, stay.
His heart would tell him, run, run run.
"It's not like you to play this game, so 'way you go"-
-and he was gone.

Again
04:15
|
|

And you wake up again
To drive on the same road again
To go to the same place again
To see the same faces again
To do the same things again
As you wait for the time to pass again
But the time is passing and you are still standing
on the same spot that you were last year
and you keep asking what are you doing
while waiting for a change to happen
But no matter how long you waitin
the change is not gonna happen
as long as your legs can take it
dont stop and keep runnin
And you prep up again
To drive on the same road again
to go out at the same place
To hung with the same people again
to have the same drink again
As you wait for the time to pass again
But the time is passing and you are still standing
on the same spot that you were last year
and you keep asking what are you doing
while waiting for a change to happen
But no matter how long you waitin
the change is not gonna happen
as long as your legs can take it
dont stop and keep runnin
But the time is passing and you are still standing
on the same spot that you were last year
and you keep asking what are you doing
while waiting for a change to happen
But no matter how long you waitin
the change is not gonna happen
as long as your legs can take it
dont stop and keep runnin

Invisible Door
03:50
|
|
||
You feel lonely
but you re never alone
you let the distance
with the others to grow
coloured cycles
on a black canvas drawn
you can see the void
but you are on your own
Time is winding down
you hear the clock ticking
you push away those who are standing
cause they block your way
and you have to get through
the invisible door as its closing
as its closing
You hear a song
but you ve queued the next one
you see a face
but you ve queued the next one
you change places so fast
till they re fading
end up being
blurred colors on a painting
Time is winding down
you hear the clock ticking
you push away those who are standing
cause they block your way
and you have to get through
the invisible door as its closing
as its closing
The smell of hurry
is everywhere
and the sand in the glass
is pilling
everything looks still
as you move
so you stop (pause)
only for a moment
Time is winding down
you hear the clock ticking
you push away those who are standing
cause they block your way
and you have to get through
the invisible door as its closing
as its closing
And its closing but you cant remember
what's on the other side

Breathe it out

He said "forgive me"
"I can only be this much."
"Don't feed the monster,
live as your own master.
Go away, and don't turn back."
She closed her mind and waited for
the stain to dry.
She wasn't blind, but through enamored eyes
the poison is as sweet as the lie.
They're face to face,
they're soul to soul.
she's seen it all before.
And she's already halfway through the door
when he starts to bleed out words:
"Whatever you feel, whatever you see,
whatever you do, wherever you are.
Whatever this is, whatever this means,
whatever you seek:
I am gonna break you
I don't love nor hate you
I can't be the man you want.
I am bound to break you
I don't love nor hate you.
I can't be the man you want."
He said "forgive me."
"I can only be a friend."
"It doesn't matter,
It's not me you're after.
Just my version in your head."
She closed her eyes and waited
for the storm to pass.
It feels unreal, impossible to deal with-
just one half of a romance.
They are face to face
Not heart to heart.
They're born to be apart.
And she doesn't even dare look back
whens he feels him twist the knife:
"Whatever you feel, whatever you see,
whatever you do, wherever you are.
Whatever this is, whatever this means,
whatever you seek:
I am gonna break you
I don't love nor hate you
I can't be the man you want.
I am bound to break you
I don't love nor hate you.
I can't be the man you want."
(You'll live, that's a given.
Breathe it out and breathe in.
Breathe it in and breathe it out.)
I am gonna break you
I don't love nor hate you
I can't be the man you want.
I am bound to break you
I don't love nor hate you.
I can't be the man you want."

Signal from the past
06:51
|
|
||
Looking at the lights on the sky
as you try to see in the past
does the gravity holds us near
or does it drifts us apart
Will we ever cover the distance
that everyday is growing
will we ever fill the void
or on our courses we keep going
Have you ever seen the starts
as they dance around a black hole
have you seen how small they look
just before they re gone forever
Not long ago our route was common
and I cant recall the day that ended
was it when we saw the horizon
and like an illusion it bended
And im sending a signal
but I hear nothing back
is it due to interference
or you re way too far
have you ever seen the starts
as they dance around a black hole
have you seen how small they look
just before they re gone forever
Feels like you ve gone too far

Promethea

I come from the depths of imagination
I drink from the fountain of inspiration
every time as a new incarnation
My name is
I come from the depths of imagination
I drink from the fountain of inspiration
every time as a new incarnation
My name is
Walking with your younger self
trying to remember what you had to be
talking about the years to come
and all of what you ve ever dreamed
as I hop between worlds
riding the imaterial vales
seeing feelings as colors
my subtance in the world of tales
I come from the depths of imagination
I drink from the fountain of inspiration
every time as a new incarnation
My name is
I come from the depths of imagination
I drink from the fountain of inspiration
every time as a new incarnation
My name is
thinking in an unknown language
treading on a hand-drawn eight
on a path that snakes through time
looking for the timeless gate
flying on the bright sky
reaching for higher and higher
for a myth brought to reason
about the one that brought the fire
I come from the depths of imagination
I drink from the fountain of inspiration
every time as a new incarnation
My name is
I come from the depths of imagination
I drink from the fountain of inspiration
every time as a new incarnation
My name is
like a thought that became true
like a dream where you take part
like walking on a mobius strip
of an idea that just start

Damaskian day
04:44
|
|
||
When you were young
they used to tell you
the moment would come
and change it all
Next to the sun
a shiny rainbow
would have appear
and cover it all
And the years passed
and you preped hard
and the damascus day was close
But the day did come
and the day did go
leaving some emptiness below
Sometimes you commit sometimes you let go
like a mandala that you worked for years
the moment does come its finally done
you only pause before you blow it away

Bluebird
04:05
|
|
||
They put a mind in there
and sometimes a soul,
and the women break
vases against the wall
They keep searching
in a single fate
we are all trapped
in a giant hall
There's no chance
There's no chance
There's no chance
at all
I walk the streets
drunk and alone
strangers with faces
I haven't seen before
I keep looking
crawling into beds
but i cant find
the one i'm looking for
There's no chance
There's no chance
There's no chance
at all
There's a bluebird in my heart
that wants to get out
but I'm too tough for him,
I dont let it to shout
there's a bluebird in my heart
that wants to get out
but I pour whiskey on him
and say stay down
Then i put him back again
but he keeps singing
and it's nice enough to
to keep me weeping
There's a bluebird in my heart
that wants to get out
but I'm clever enough
to sometimes let him out
And let him out
