the wind overheard
the thoughts of doubt in my head
treacherous friend
strong enough to pack my things and send away
I know what you'll say
you've combed my hair in other lands
but there'll be no change
unless you blow my head off first
I inhale though it suffocates
say a snippet of faraway lands
wants me to believe it always aims at me
I inhale though it suffocates
I inhale and I keep my pace
the wind shares its taste
with things it crosses on its way
treacherous friend
leaves a mark, it will be always coming back

Broken Bells

some words are failing us
some words are completely failed by us
empty and confused my own words make me wanna go mute
aborted unwanted parts of truth
twisted tongues enemies or allies
toxic waste fills the air all the time
some words are failing us
when a shadow speaks it never sieves the bad from good seeds
crops go into waste
they never lick the sense off our lips
never reach the ground of our ears
some words are completely failed by us
when silence is all I need to indulge in a wordless peace
the sirens around me won't cease
a raid of words begins
and they go iaiaiai
you sound iaiaia
speak to me the words I'm surprised to hear
suffocate the chaos of the words unspoken
make me wanna listen and wait for more
speak to me the words hidden in your lips
the words unknown of the things well known
that would mean a new world to me
speak to me no iaiaia

Under the bloody moon
we shoot the stars down
and now they shine on a dump and empty ground
foolish semi gods left their mountain to have fun
and defining times the kids of whores and titans sing us songs
no one asked to burn the books
we all set them on fire
no government or king
we washed their hands just future in our gaze
frantic gaze
running swarms of ignorance
there's no way to change
the pace of dying days
no need to change
the way children play
oh The Great Four who's your star today
shall we like it or not please help
as the quality is measured by name
judge and label and bless
who's the one you want to mock tonight
who's gonna drink some fake hope
and candied words dissolved in your sacred tears
when we clap and we cry and we laugh
and we'll clap and we'll cry and we'll laugh
and we'll clap and we'll cry and we'll laugh
just tonight
Under the bloody moon
we shoot the stars down
and a no name man sings in no man's land

Animal

An animal walks with me
and I wonder if I stay
will it catch its prey or
I'll kill the mental passenger in me
silence, voices are faking emotions
blood in my throat sets in motion
the alien heartbeat of a beast in me
limbs so craving in the night
stepping down when the morning claims their life
at once thrugh the hills and dales we run
and it's clear who's left behind
on the way
hunter faces the lights on a highway
me at the back speeding up when
when the road found a way
into numbness we're falling
hit and run lights are glowing
and the passion still hurts
and the passion still burns
soul of a beast in a weakest of flesh

there's no water in the kingdom
even empty words died alone in sleep
I force myself on the paper
to erase some emptiness but the pen stands still
I lost my soul on a desert filled with sense
I need to chase mirages again
we might be dancing in the dark
there's no rhythm and music doesn't feel the same
just the thoughts of how it was
and a feeling that somewhere very deep inside
they still are
when load of days is just enough
to stifle the chords and abort the sounds
there's a sting that will never lie
there's a thorn that hits my heart
I face my biggest enemy again
it's in a corner with just one string left
a queue of dreams behind this mess
first they push me away
and then they go to hell
might be dancing in the dark
there's a rhythm and music never is the same
and the thoughts of how it was
and a feeling that somewhere very deep inside
I was hoping to leave my other self
but I'm chasing mirages again
all of a sudden when you decide
not to care any more and resign
even one string is just enough
you're so grateful for every sound
while hope is blind, she listens now
so play her songs, one string is fine
can't beat the beat of the heart
I won't give up, I'll play the game
of giving up another day
and never be set to win
there's a rhythm in my heart
even though I'm dancing in the dark
