Until I’m gone I will hold on.
There were a thousand blows and falls that made me learn.
That was a long time ago when I still walked alone.
I walked among the sirens and their songs.
And the Demon followed me just in front of my door.
-Sorry, Sir, I will not leave until you go.
You can’t do anything here.
Go back where you came from as I’ve done.
Return to your home.
Even in the darkness, someone turns the lights on
pointing out the way back home.
Well, now I’m aware of the mystery of the road.
The last breath of your words
can still shape the sirens’ and the demons’ calls.
Even in the darkness, someone turns the lights on
pointing out the way back home.

Under The Rain
04:52
|
|||
|
She was strong on the most crucial day of her life.
When she opened her eyes and her love had gone.
She thought she had lost.
She thought no one would want her the same.
-Perhaps I was right-
she wonders under the rain.
Where’s the guarantee of happiness?
Her mended heart about to crash
She was blind.
Dared the lion to cross the thin line.
Pressed her tiny hands
and she offered her most candid smile.
And trusted her luck
as if she had a really good hunch.
But the lion's roar frightened her once more.
And behind these claws
there are also two innocent souls.
Let your offspring grow
with courage, patience, and love.
You’ll always be for them
the best thing they can ever have.
So collect your tears
from the last to the first.
And she walks away. Yes she walks under the rain
Her mended heart about to crash
The lonesome hearts are the biggest ones.
And she still asks why are you so far?
But all she’s got is a gift from the past
And all she’s got is a gift from her past
She thought she’d lost.
She thought no one would want her the same.
-Perhaps I was wrong-
she wonders under the rain.

The Wick
04:33
|
|||
|
The prairies have been stained
with the color of the wine.
Nothing was fine
Your hands have been struck
as well as your sins washed away.
It was not your fault, it was just life
making you to find another way
And the cold that froze what’s left behind
is the wick that ignites your hopeless mind.
And the cold that froze what’s left behind
is the wick that ignites your beaten mind.
Now the hills that saw you grow,
they’re something to behold.
Just hold on, hope.
Cause every open hole
has been all covered by stones.
And they won’t refloat.
Let the cold that broke your heart and mine
be the wick that ignites a true love sign.
Think about each of those who stayed behind.
We won’t collapse this time
Gaze my eyes, let love grow.
We won’t be judged for what we’ve done.
And help us Lord, we are your sons.
So please, forgive what we’ve become.
What we’ve become.
What we’ve become.

Troy
04:48
|
|||
|
Wind’s crashing into the window frame.
Home becomes a foreign place.
You’re too close to feel safe.
Ain’t no hope, no love, no grace
Oh, poor boy, how long have you been this way?
Hiding in the closet, counting down the days.
Cause dad is angry after a few sips of wine.
One false move may put you on the line
Oh poor boy just run and run
Look for your own promised land.
And keep just one photograph
To remember who you are.
That’s the sad story of many a poor boy
Boys like you, like me, like Troy.
Growing up with a gun in their hand.
One more day could be too late.
Oh, poor boy just run and run.
Look for your own promised land.
And keep just one photograph
To remember who you are.
Oh, Troy poor boy just run and run.
Look for your own promised land.
And keep just one photograph
To remember who you are.
Who you are...

Not Alone
04:43
|
|||
|
Since the point we’re born
we were bound to our places.
As soon as you got out the road
you felt that damn shot.
One day the lights are gone.
It seemed the show was ending
And you thought your struggles
they’ve come to nought.
But sometimes something happens
and it makes you believe.
So when the storm arrives
you will hear me singing ohhhhhh.
You’re not alone
This land has been a dark place.
A nightmare full of strangers.
Shadows running after me.
I won’t be on my knees.
My friend, don’t close your eyes.
Do not wait as the world changes.
Walk along your own way
and you’ll set your soul free.
I knew it wasn’t all.
Yes, it’s harder when you are far away from home.
The flesh against the wall.
But I have no fear.
I know I’m not alone.
I’m not alone.
And you’re not alone.
We are not alone.

Lost
05:14
|

How long? How long have you waited for
to find anything real in what’s false?
Take my, take my hand and hold.
I will show you all you missed while you were lost.
The broken skies, the setting sun.
And lovers watching it.
Take off your shoes. Feel the earth under your feet.
Get down on your skinny knees and shout loud.
We’ll clean our souls. They were marked in the past.
But this time it will definitely be the last.
I can promise I’m always going to be with you.
Cause I'm not ready to feel in my veins that it was my fault.
The broken hearts, the gloomy nights,
all that we left behind.
To bring back your warm smile.
It was worth the sacrifice.
It’s not what you see, but what you feel
when you cannot explain it.
I can promise I’m always going to be with you.
Cause I'm not ready to feel in my veins that it was my fault. That it was my fault...
It was not my fault.

Onyx Dress
05:30
|
|||
|
Far away, between the mountains and dense mist,
a creature lives, luring people to the other side.
Oh my...
Twinkling eyes and a body of pitch.
We all are wanted.
Now I see how it comes.
Everyone is afraid but I’m not
No, I am not
And she slowly took off her onyx dress.
Then I saw up close her loneliness.
“It’s over my son. I’ve been waiting for you”.
That makes two…
of us

Young Forest
03:08
|
|||
|
It’s hard to say goodbye
when you get through the line.
When pestilence has settled in your mind.
The fury doesn’t exist living in the young forest.
Living in the young forest.
Society is just nonsense
where all the wild things are.
Where the innocence of nature
is free from The Man.
My child soul chasing devils
is not afraid of their chorus.
Here inside the young forest.
Oh, father, my father! Trust me
Oh, mother, my mother! Lead me
Oh, father, my father! Trust me
Oh, mother, my mother! Lead me
Oh, sister, dear sister! Be free

As Mom Said
05:15
|
|||
|
Well, I am still not too old
and you are not too young.
I was ordered to keep calm
and bite my tongue.
All the sirens call at once.
It was hard to bear her crown.
Didn’t know how brave she was
until you broke down.
Even if pain rains on me
and drops turn into flames,
you will be my only one.
I’ll be proud to wear this name.
And if darkness seizes us
or the nightmares choke our souls,
I’ll protect you like I swore
and I swear once more.
“You must always use the truth,
walk a mile in other’s shoes”.
Let’s wake the love we shared,
doing things as mom said.
“And you must gather all your rage
to put a smile on the other’s face”.
Let’s wake the love we shared,
doing things as mom said.
Just remember all we learnt.
And do things as mom said.

Wild Horse
05:27
|
|||
|
I know it’s not sane at all.
But what if I can’t find something better?
I saw you in the green pasture lands feeling like a feather.
I was told I couldn’t look at the sun.
So I just focused on the ocean.
And I sank into the deepest blue or were they your eyes glowing?
Wild horse, untamed creature.
Could I be by your side?
Could I stay with you again?
When the need to run blooms
You can try to ride me now
but I assure you that you’ll fall.
And though you gently stroke my long brown mane,
you won’t even know my name.
Wild horse, untamed creature.
Could I be by your side?
Could I stay with you again?
When the need to run blooms
Oh, wild horse what if you’re my true love
or maybe something new?.
You trot too fast for me;
I can’t keep up with you.
But you are so beautiful right now.
Make your harp sound and I’ll gallop back to you.
Oh, wild horse.
Make your harp sound and I’ll gallop back to you.

Looking North
04:50
|
|||
|
God brought us into the world as helpless round shapes.
Staring at life how it comes.
Alone in the winter, ready to escape.
We knew that would serve us to grow.
So, we left the cave with rapid steps
without looking back if it hurt.
But nobody told us what we would find
if we walked along looking North
All along.
