1. The pathology of incest
We sweetly choke…
Disclosing us fragile
Question: will we be sincere
Or praise our perfect lie?
Stealing our perspective
The semen of betrayal
Infects the hands we stretch
our mouths and fists and hearts
And now beware of all the stories I’ll put you in front of
As pain will make me laugh at all the things we took for sacred
I’m the Pathology of Incest
I’m the Pathology of Incest
We sweetly choke…
Senseless lack of trust
Elects our fears a god
To martyr our desires.
Partake in bending fever
Assuring us, the insecure,
Will to stay is will to fear
In our next every word
And now beware of all the stories I’ll put you in front of
As pain will make me laugh at all the things we took for sacred
I’m the Pathology of Incest
I’m the Pathology of Incest
Absurd synthetic
non tears
We hide by ceramic
white smiles
The faceless coward
we nursed
Is suffocating us,
Is us, inside us
We sweetly choke…
Assuring us, the insecure,
Will to stay is will to fear
In our next every word
And now beware of all the stories I’ll put you in front of
As pain will make me laugh at all the things we took for sacred
I’m the Pathology of Incest
I’m the Pathology of Incest
2. A fact of egoism
I had forgotten
How much it hurts
That only second
When mind is opened wide
By nails of consciousness
With grim, cold touch
The cruel misleading feel
You missed one breath
It lasts for but one deaf
Blink of an eye
And fills your head with doubts
About what is real
Now you can’t believe
Even your own thoghts
Because she is inside
And rides your veins
GAME: a sin fragile, a fact of egoism
Pushed it all too far, pushed it all too far
GAME: a sin fragile, a fact of egoism
I only fear the pain, I only fear the pain…
I ingurgitate the demon of human self disgust
I bow my head and prey: grief is my new god
It peels off pride and the essence of being myself
I only ask this sunset to conceal any remembrance of her
It comes in suddenly
As silence fills the room
My rendezvous with tears
Consumes without ado
Where is the sense of strength?
What did become of me?
Then fear reveals its plot:
I’m born an empty shell
3. Untitled part 1 (Instrumental)
4. Unreasonable heartbeating diminuendo
Another viscious night
Looking at the ceiling as a mirror
And distant lights played the same strange comedy
It is sad to understand
Sickness grows and
Far, the railway sounds
Maybe one day I’m gonna walk down
On that infinite steel
A shudder and cold sweat to save my dreams
Did you ever wonder if
Your last day will be a rainy day?
Maybe all this noise will just go on…
Lost hopes, childlike idle thoughts
When I go I’ll carrie a world beyond.
Imagine people stopping for a while
Just to realize that you are no more
It’s high time I cry now
Tomorrow I’ll be gone
Another hour passed
Stucked on that pillow, images flows
No I, I won’t. Not now, Lord…
Am I leaving now?
Could you explain
This unusual sense of numbness
Tomorrow, flowers bloom. My Spring
Won’t come. I feel it again…
Frightened as my soul marooned me
I’m finally empty, all alone
Did you ever wonder if
Your last day will be a rainy day?
Maybe all this noise will just go on…
Lost hopes, childlike idle thoughts
When I go I’ll carrie a world beyond.
Imagine people stopping for a while
Just to realize that you are no more
It’s high time I cry now
Tomorrow I’ll be gone
Another viscious night
It seems the last one
‘Cause I’m fading to void. Strange images
on my slightly open eyes; I loved, I’m asking why!
Could you explain
This unusual sense of numbness
Tomorrow, flowers bloom. My Spring
Won’t come. I feel it again…
Frightened as my soul marooned me
I’m finally empty, all alone
Even if I searched the Universe
Tonight I couldn’t find your hand
Your easy warmth so distant
Tonight I’m trembling to death
What’s wrong?
Why am I running away?
5. The inconstancy of April
April, she came
To show me how beauty
Is an ungrateful kiss
Stolen from her lips
After all the wasted words
Sometimes I feel the rage
Of a thousand single tears
That claim their dignity
Welcome to the endless,
Fascinating point
Of absolute obscure
Ascending down.
As the spiral breaks
Its turn here now.
There in front of me
She stands and stares…
Figure out her eyes in you tell me:
Tell me what I should, tell me what I should have done
Try to imagine her, infernal haven:
Tell me what I should, tell me what I should have done
Eyes awake
in the midst of April’s arms
Eyes bleed
for my sweet blasphemous guilt
Welcome to the irrational
Disharmonic moment
When you just kissed demise
In circular breakthrough;
When you course yourself,
Your weak and wicker brain:
There in front of me
She lays and sleeps…
Figure out her eyes in you tell me:
Tell me what I should, tell me what I should have done
Try to imagine her, infernal haven:
Tell me what I should, tell me what I should have done
Eyes awake
in the midst of April’s arms
Eyes bleed
for my sweet blasphemous guilt
I know it seems so cruel to witness
She smiles again behind her beauty
Now deep inside I don’t even matter,
I face the fact I’ll face disgrace
I know it seems so damn unreal
But excuses fail again to cover
In front of her all lies melted down
What was so wrong to even not be seen?
April’s eyes deny the tears
She glances at me for one last time
The line between our souls insane
Was a mere illusion we shed of tonight.
6. The elegant curse of understanding
Behind the mask
Of our naked purity, it stands.
A dream to carry on,
The same that buried us again.
Should I feel the blame,
when egoism is sickness, but never-ending joy.
Tonight we sigh so loud, hoping someone could hear
And after a while we’re just temples of sand and stone
There is no time to cry, not even to understand,
There is no time to hide, we’re cursed to eat our heart out.
Crowded empty pills
to swallow, that’s what I learned.
So now that I can see
we’re fighting not to lose ourselves
I laugh. Am I to blame,
When solitude is blindness, but maybe the only way to escape.
Tonight we sigh so loud, hoping someone could hear
And after a while we’re just temples of sand and stone
There is no time to cry, not even to understand,
There is no time to hide, we’re cursed to eat our heart out.
Tonight we’ll try to escape, hoping noone would hear
And deep inside we’ll feel the burning void.
There will be time to cry, but we can’t help it
‘cause that’s the elegant curse of understanding.
7. Some pain we shared
A fleeting glance
Through my well-known universe
What should I see
Flashing feelings, maybe lost ones
Someday we’ll try to understand
The sleeping fear that hides beneath our sad story
Do you remember all the tears
The liquid bliss, some pain we shared
The cynical drug of Love
Is slowly eroding the Dreamer inside
Once he could not fly
Now he drowned, goodbye
Someday we’ll try to understand
The sleeping fear that hides beneath our sad story
Do you remember all the tears
The liquid bliss, some pain we shared
Sometimes I found myself stucked
Thinking of my past future games
A lonely man in tears remembering all our shades
It seems really hard to take a step to pass this pain by
‘Cause maybe I don’t need to suffer
But all I want is You so close to me
Someday we’ll try to understand
The sleeping fear that hides beneath our sad story
Do you remember all the tears
The liquid bliss, some pain we shared
8. Untitled part 2
9. Stigma.9
If I chose to believe
This all never existed
What will you ever
Think about me?
Hypocrite, your answer came
As an insignificant play-toy
Can my little words
Disgust you so…?
Just a little closer
-If only you had seen me-
Just a little closer
Sometimes I know I would have done it all
If I learned to ignore
The way I stood in there
Would the seed of doubt
Devour your trust in me?
Deconstruct every drop of this
In a childlike undefence
Stare at me as I grow beyond
Any human cold detach
Just a little closer
-If only you had seen me-
Just a little closer
Sometimes I know I would have done it all
Behind the face we wear so brave
We’ll taste now so much fear, we’ll taste now so much fear
Behind the face we wear so brave
We’ll taste now so much fear, we’ll taste now so much fear
10. Scent of a midsummer dawn
Come credere che al distacco
Potesse davvero mancare il coraggio
E scoprirsi di nuovo distratti dal dubbio
Per l’ultima volta in un’alba d’Agosto
As with the new day
We’ll learn again
To take care of our little lives
Beyond the brakes
Beyond the shelters we used to make
Out of our self imposed
Intimacy
