As the sun goes down, time’s motion decays
A dark enlightenment strikes through clouds losing shape
To guess tomorrow, exploit pain and regret
When feels tomorrow, embrace your question day
Embrace the day when lies came to a stay
Abstracted conceptions oh they will play
I’m a weapon warming to…
Face Nature and feel what’s coming through
Step now cowards and come to meet your fate
For every doubt of truth, all be punished on my way
For all you do as race
For every step in vain
Forever I’ll be trapped in this stairway
As the sun goes down, time’s motion decays
A dark enlightenment strikes through clouds losing shape
To guess tomorrow, exploit pain and regret
When feels tomorrow, embrace your question day
From insects to humans the quest still goes on
Unleashing the source of a drowned logic knot
In empty spaces we fix and full
a puzzle that’s bigger than me and you
For all you do as race
For every step in vain
Forever we’ll be trapped in this stairway…
Every quest they have
Guides an empty space
As the sun goes down they will meet their fate
As a coward's rise to a full moon light
With a courage of a human despised
Doubts of what it is, what we’re living in
All the points we see
Cursed wombs of being
Oracle’s sights clear
Thru’ the immensity
Of a universe
Which is you and me
Oh why can’t they read?
Words of oracles in
A void that we seek
For the one we believe
But what all them must know
Is Nature’s course in its true form
For all we do as race
For every step in vain
Forever we’ll be trapped in this stairway

Look around
A perfect imperfection
A wholeness
Beyond your sense perception
Love Destroy Fear Obey
Hate Respect Worship Protect
I see
Seamless harmony
In chaos
I am the unity
Look around
An imperfect perfection
Taught to divide
To feel a disconnection
A piece of the puzzle
Is useless on its own
The night that becomes the day
It’s the light that turns into dark
The cure that becomes the virus
All is it and its opposite
You see
true inequality
In chaos
You are absurdity
Unkind humankind
You’re able to see
But prefer to be blind
I see
Seamless harmony
In chaos
We are the unity
Welcome to the Warehouse of Erratic Souls

When The Dreams Die
05:25
|
|||
|
So fly forever from me
When I lay down
Free all of the dreams that survived!
So far from the sight that keeps us alive
In a world relentless of time
Through a path made of stars
With yourself living in a lie
From the first cries
There is a number for each breathing thing
Ticking the timer of choices
Under this moonlight
Waiting a sign from the damned shining points
They shine, so bright
I can read all of my fate in them
The steel bars, so bright
Blinded I’m locked into this dreams entropy
Oh time, from the sight that keeps us alive
Through a path made of stars
With yourself living in a lie
That’s when the dreams die!
There’s no purpose, is there any prize?
In life we demand to accomplish
To be, to create, to evolve
Dreams are thoughts , dreams are wishes, needs
But in the end, dreams aren’t reality
Heads up, there’s no after life
So as we go straight into the dark
Crawling, crawling, crawling…
I’m running out of faith for the last time
Borrowed out of existence
For every stone that I wrote my name
A delusional rain
So fly forever from me
When I lay down
Free all of the dreams that survived!

Cover your eyes
Your last breath is now
Lying for the blind
god acts still follow
Priceless outcome
An insane judgment
Tears replace the blood
In your hands
I fear no judgment from heaven or hell
Memories will be my only cell
I fear no judgment from heaven or hell
Let me hear your words of farewell
Take me home 3x
This shadow is following me
Everywhere I go I can see
The choices I make
Are already made for me
He laughs as he watches me fail
Again and again I feel my life drain
Trying to escape…
Now we’re one with Gehenna
In the dark depths I’m not safe
All your trails, all the frames
In this guilt I found my grave

Cryptic Command
06:27
|

|
Night falls in the metropolis
Tiny dots of light bathe the horizon
Hundreds of windows in a row
Must be the monkeys’ cage
Take a better look, it’s just the human race
Blue light invades the air
Numbers converted to ratings and share
Fed by news, novels and fear
Such easy targets believing what they ear
Look at the silence
Hear the darkness
When the dawn is late
We'll learn our fate
Out of the blue
The instructions come to you
Don't ask, obliterate
Can't think, eradicate
Divide to conquer
Matrix is not a fiction
They have a clear mission
Hold the silence
Cover the darkness
A command unclear
No freedom, only fear
Our doom is here

Dromomania
19:51
|

|
I. Fugue
Have you ever forgotten your face
Or disappeared leaving no trace?
Live it
Forget it
Repeat
Reason propels the deceit
Madness in the driving seat
See ten thousand things
Sense the eternity of dreams
Or maybe meet a hundred kings
Tell ten thousand lies
Or die a hundred tries
Into a rain of thoughts
Confusions and paradox
Trying to connect the dots
My destiny is on a jukebox
Le voyage… c’est une fugue
La marche obsessive de la folie
II. Contemplation
Does dementia reflect in the mirror?
Do I travel
To see the world
Or my innerself?
Dromomania…
A word
Is in the air
Triggers me
into despair
Sleepwalking
‘till I fall
Amnesia is in control
Masturbation and migraine
Departures are so mundane
Is it pleasure or devotion
To dive into my own ocean?
A beggar, a charlatan
Making my way through life
Existing somewhere
Oh time, release me from this nightmare
Numb and dumb
Dating with the scum
From a factory to a prison cell
Been everywhere even to hell
From a bench in Paris
To a train in Berlin
I am wanderlust
Soon I’ll be dust
A desire
Is everywhere
An obsession
And despair
Disappearing
‘till I die
In me you can’t rely
Is it pleasure or devotion
To dive into my own ocean?
My emotion…
III. Eternal Absentee
Doctor:
Sleep my friend
And let me take control
If it wasn’t for exhaustion
You’d walk until the North (Pole)
I’ll help you remember
I’ll help you surrender
Knowing your inner abyss
You can have some bliss
Jean-Albert:
I long for peace
I long for silence
I’m a pirate with no sea
An eternal absentee
A thousand masks I wear
Even been a legionnaire
A master of deception
A poor man’s reflection
No walls, borders
Languages or time
Chasing illusions
is my only crime
IV. Last Destiny
Live a life already lived
Borrow a story and be believed
(Into) an infinite spiral of motion
To forever ramble my only option
Wandering
Drifting
Strolling
Roaming
Moving
Wish to escape this damned curse
The universe is my post code
Last destiny: the end of the road
