1. Stolen Heartbeats

3. What Was Once... Is Nevermore
4. Invasion
1. Stolen Heartbeats
My brain works very well
Free from veils that could break it
I'm free to do what I want
To hate who I want
Not to share opinions, but respect who doesn' t see with my eyes
Green eyes, unsure
I envy who doesn' t see as I see, like animals
But who's right?
Are the colours of the world really these, or what I see is not real?
But what does "real" mean?
Perhaps reality is only the function of death
Maybe I'm dead and I'm waiting for a life that finally will arrive
When somebody' ll steal my heartbeats
Heart, this strange beating organ
That pumps blood in our veins
And purifies it from trash
[Solo: Mario]
Or maybe is really the heart that infects our blood
Allowing and forcing us to spend a long death before life?
2. Existence
Distension, lack of space
Skin obstructs my arms, my eyes
Useless stumps, discomfort
I'll be born, among the waste my mother
Will give me birth, to leave me
Rotten stink, the only memory
I've been born, and rape my own vanity
Hiding behind non-existent thoughts and happiness,
Sad prizes for a crawling time-serving
Play with my tongue, string it through rotten teeths,
Tear it, pushin' it in my throat
Lungs implode
Infected cancer in a child snow-white body
Play with my tongue, string it through rotten teeths
I'll be grown in a grey ridoled building,
Witness of a war lost in the past,
Solitude the only memory
[Solo: Nicola]
Now I'm dead, only certainty
And happily sing, like nothing had never happened.
Distension, lack of space
Skin obstructs my arms, my eyes
Useless stumps, discomfort
I'll be born, among the waste my mother
Will give me birth, to leave me
Rotten stink, the only memory
I've been born, and rape my own vanity
3. What Was Once... Is Nevermore
Through the shadows I see what it could be
Beyond beliefes and common places, I see the power of life
Nothing here belongs to me
And I don't belong to this place
What was once... is nevermore
What was once... is nevermore
And yet you say everything's ok
And yet you tell me not to be afraid
What do you want from me?
What I see is no longer familiar to me
What sorrounds me is assuming monstrous forms
What I have been and what I am
What does that matter now?
As I load my gun with my broken dreams
[Solo: Nicola]
And proudly pass the threshold
Of the nameless abyss
Every step is definitive, indelible
Here every thought is imprinted in the dark
Every feeling is a column of stone
My rage is a cold fire which doesn't light
My love a particle of dust
In the huge emptiness of the abyss
My life the smallest gear of an unknown machine
What was once... is nevermore
[Solo: Mario]
4. Invasion
Now! The first light
The illusion of life starts
Now! The first fight
An invasion of things which fight each other
Now! The bastards
They think that they can understand
Now! The obscurity
Silence is the heaviest noise I can feel.
[2x]
[Solo: Nicola]
[Solo: Mario]
