Far from your sun

Over mountains and plains
Sun seems to have disappeared
Sweet is the cold breath of the wind
Blowing a well-known melody
A ship sailing on the horizon
Reminds me of my stormy childhood
I was born in a place
Where skies and earth make only one
Passing over the foaming rivers in my torn red pants
I used to sing this sweet melody
Far from your sun I stand x4
Winded by our runs through the moor
We laid in the tall grass
The wind swept our hair
The rain washed our muddy faces
Under the wrath of a raging sky
We watch waves breaking on cliffs
In a dark moonless night
We were the guardians of this land
Far from your sun I stand x4
Over mountains and plains
Sun seems to have disappeared
Sweet is the cold breath of the wind
Blowing a well-known melody
A ship sailing on the horizon
Reminds me of my stormy childhood
I was born in a place
Where skies and earth make only one
Under the wrath of a raging sky
We watch waves breaking on cliffs
In a dark moonless night
I am the guardian of this land

Under the hands of time

I know you went through a bad time
Guess the words you have never said
I know the bitterness of your dreams
See the scars of time deep in your mind
You left on the roads of life with the urge to live
You were beautiful you were strong
Scared to be what you are now
Ordinary man alone face to himself
Remember the time when you were young and proud
Remember the days when you were strong
There is something wrong in your eyes
There is something wrong in your smile
Nothing to erase the pain
A feeling of sorrow inside
I remember the day when you are gone
I remember those days when I cried
Now you are back but the years of glory are gone
Now you are back but I donât see you anymore
Remember the time when you were young and proud
Remember the days when you were strong
Remember the time when you were young and proud
Remember the days when you were strong
Silence and weakness were your worst enemies
Better dying than living on knees
Have you forgotten all your promises
Who put these chains around your neck
I cannot stand to see you creeping
On the trace of your past
All these roads you wanted to hit
You lost your soul you lost your faith
Where are your dreams now
Where are your hopes now
Where are your dreams now
Where are your hopes now
Face of stony soldiers you broke your hands
Faced with cold illusions you burnt your eyes
Face of stony soldiers you broke your hands
Faced with cold illusions you burnt your eyes
Where are your dreams now
Where are your hopes now
Remember the time when you were young and proud
Remember the days when you were strong
Remember the time when you were young and proud
Remember the days when you were strong
Remember the time x3
Remember this time

Annabel Lee
12:34
|
|||
It was many and many a year ago
In a kingdom by the sea
That a maiden there lived, whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me
I was a child and she was a child
In this kingdom by the sea
But we loved with a love that was more than love
I and my Annabel Lee
With a love that the winged seraphs of Heaven
Coveted her and me
With a love that the winged seraphs of Heaven
Coveted her and me
This was the reason that, long ago
In this kingdom by the sea
The winds blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee
So that her highborn kinsmen came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea
The Angels, not half so happy in Heaven,
Went envying her and me
Yes! That was the reason (as all men know
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of a cloud by night
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.
Annabel Lee
The wind came out of a cloud by night
Annabel Lee
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee
Annabel Lee
The wind came out of a cloud by night
Annabel Lee
But our love, it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we,
Of many far wiser than we
And neither the Angels in Heaven above
Nor the demons down under the sea
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.
Annabel Lee
The wind came out of a cloud by night
Annabel Lee
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee
Annabel Lee
The wind came out of a cloud by night
Annabel Lee
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee
For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee
And the stars never rise, but I feel the bright eyes
Of my beautiful Annabel Lee.
And so, all the nighttide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling! My darling, my life and my bride.
In her sepulchre, there by the sea,
In her tomb, by the side of the sea.
And so, all the nighttide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling! My darling, my life and my bride.
In her sepulchre, there by the sea,
In her tomb, by the side of the sea.

Life
07:37
|

Life is an illusion
Made of flowers and perfumes
Life is an illusion
Made of very small things
Leading us to unknown shores
Into an uncertain future
Life is an illusion
Made of thorns and poisons
Life is an illusion
Made of very small things
Blowing our hopes and desires away
Into an uncertain future
There is the silver rain falling down on the cobblestones
The dazzling colors of an autumn garden
There is a pearl of dew shimmering with a thousand reflections
The flapping of a butterfly's wings
There is the teasing wind painting up misty figures in the sky
The final dance of the reddish-brown leaves
There is the ghostly light of the moon on the stony walls
The endless promises of the horizon
There is the roaring thunder of the unsatisfied anger
The toxic verses of an indecent poet
There is a ghost walking on the ledge of the blighted hopes bridge
The silence of a baby, a motherâs cries
There is the teasing wind painting up misty figures in the sky
The final dance of the reddish-brown leaves
There is the ghostly light of the moon on the stony walls
The endless promises of the horizon
Do we sail on the stream of our destiny
Does it mean no merit no guilt
There is the roaring thunder of the unsatisfied anger
The toxic verses of an indecent poet/poem
There is a ghost walking on the ledge of the blighted hopes bridge
The silence of a baby, a motherâs cries
There is the teasing wind painting (up) misty figures in the sky
The final dance of the reddish-brown leaves
There is the ghostly light of the moon on the stony walls
The endless promises of the horizon
Life is an illusion
Made of flowers and perfumes
Life is an illusion
There is the silver rain falling down on the cobblestones
The dazzling colors of an autumn garden
There is a pearl of dew shimmering with a thousand reflections
There is you...
Perhaps

The eightfold path
06:17
|

They put chains on me
To keep me away from you
They danced around me
To save me from your spell
They played their damn songs
To make me forget about you
To make me forget about you
They put chains on me
To keep me away from you
They danced around me
To save me from your spell
They played their damn songs
To make me forget about you
To make me forget about you
They wanted me to drink the wine of euphoria to give me a hope I did not claim
Offered me drugs to make me feel like an addict on the nod
They drew me their garden of Eden, exposed my thirst to the lustful rumps of livid whores
Threw their notes at my feet, promised me happiness pleasure and love
They raised up golden temples and silver bridges, nearly burnt my eyes by their vain sun
Told me the codes and rules of a world without codes and rules
They've taken one of my breaths away
But eternity is ours
They've stolen one of my breaths away
But eternity is ours
I've tripped over on the trail leading to your soul
I've slept in the burning arms of corruption
They put chains on me
To keep me away from you
They danced around me
To save from your spell
They played their damn songs
To make me forget about you
To make me forget about you
They've taken one of my breaths away
But eternity is ours
They've stolen one of my breaths away
But eternity is ours

A thousand lives
03:31

I know a place
Behind your dreams
Where you can fly
Up to the stars
I know a song
Beyond your smile
That will lead you
High in the sky
I know a place
Behind your tears
Where you can fly
Up to the stars
I know a time
Beyond your cries
When you will live
A thousand lives

The black shadows of the tortured bodies
Hang tirelessly on the branches of dishonor
Condemned to the silence, to the silence of the weak
Cursed keepers of the path of the hanged men
Here stands the thin line between life and death
Here stands the frontiere between glory and pain
See the men
Who left their dreams to others stronger
To others stronger than them
See the men
For whom the reality
Cursed the name for eternity
Walking to the rhythm of the vultures screams
Mutilated by the vicious appetite of crows
Obscene exposition of an endless lost quest
I penetrate the circle of the damned
Frightened by this vision of horror
I continue under this fence of suffering
Attracted by the calls of abandon
Are my ambitions too strong for me
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
On the path of the hanged men
I touched the face of desperation
On the path of the hanged men
I learnt the weakness of dreams
On the path
On the path
I danced with the shadows of the damned
I heard the loud silence of oblivion
I touched the face of desperation
I learnt the weakness of our dreams
See the men
Who left their dreams to others stronger
To others stronger than them
See the men
For whom the reality
Cursed the name for eternity
See the men
Who left their dreams to others stronger
To others stronger than them
See the men
Who left their dreams to others stronger
To others stronger than them
See the men

As the sun fades away
And the city falls asleep
Under a blood red sky
I’m looking around for a smile
And see nothing but desperate eyes
I’ve got nowhere to go
No one to love
My head is my shelter and stars my only friends
But don’t shed tears for me
Cause the only thing I’ve got
Is more than all you could own
What are we waiting for
What are we looking for
You and I don’ know
Forget and dream x2
I’ve got nowhere to go
No one to love
My head is my shelter and stars my only friends
But don’t shed tears for me
Cause the only thing I’ve got
Is more than all you could own
What are we waiting for
What are we looking for
You and I don’ know
Forget and dream x2
My eyes scan an endless sea
Lost in this blue vision
Silently my fears fly away
And despair disappears
My hands draw on the ground
The lines of an imaginary shore
Slowly I cross the edge of reality
And penetrate the kingdom of beyond
Sailing on an ocean of calm
Flying through clouds and sliding on rainbows
Is it a dream? Is it heaven?
God only knows
My eyes scan an endless sea
Lost in this blue vision
Silently my fears fly away
And despair disappears
My hands draw on the ground
The lines of an imaginary shore
Slowly I cross the edge of reality
And penetrate the kingdom of beyond
Sailing on an ocean of calm
Flying through clouds and sliding on rainbows
Is it a dream? Is it heaven?
God only knows
But does knowing really matter?

Water for Osiris
09:17

I am he whose feet are dusty
I am a man like any man born from a blue egg buried
I have seen the flood above the cypress
And known the power within
I have swung wide the two blue doors of heaven
Green water swings wide at the bow of my barque
I have sailed the waterways of the Nile
And entered the sea of heaven
Give me water to drink
Water to drink
Give me water to drink
Quench my thirst
Give me the power of water
I have rubbed shoulders with those,
With those who have rubbed shoulders with Ra
I have envisioned angels without ceasing
I have dreamed the white heat of my own resurrection
I have passed through the floods of emotion,
The floods of emotion and knowledge
I stood on the highest hill in Egypt
And saw the waters embrace the land
Give me water to drink
Water to drink
Give me water to drink
Quench my thirst
Give me the power of water
Give me water to drink
Water to drink
Give me water to drink
Quench my thirst
Give me the power to love
I have seen the moon fill with rain like a silver cup
I've sailed my barque over the sky
I am the sun roaring beside two lions named Yesterday and Tomorrow
I am a young bull in a field of caves
I have eaten the leg of venison and gnawed the bones of his tight
I've gone around every island and sailed all the delta canals
I can name every bright lotus that grows in Egypt
I am the heir of eternity where the water flows
I have eaten the leg of venison and gnawed the bones of his tight
I've gone around every island and sailed all the delta canals
I can name every bright lotus that grows in Egypt
I am the heir of eternity where the water flows
Give me water to drink
Water to drink
Give me water to drink
Quench my thirst
Give me the power of water
Give me water to drink
Water to drink
Give me water to drink
Quench my thirst
Give me the power to love
