Enslaved by addiction
Made blind by lust
Chasing an old obsession
Now encrusted by rust
The snake has an apple in its jaws
Drooling poison
The temptation tightens my will in its claws
Growling hatred
If only I could go back in years
I'd heal my fears
If only I could go back in time
I'd save my mind
But now I'm addicted
Addicted to you
Human puppet, skin, wood and glue
Addicted to you
Miles of water
Divide the coast from me
I am a castaway
In this sea of misery
What I see in the mirror
Is the shade of myself
With no sign of emotion
But inside I'm crying for help
My indipendence
My values, my pride
All betrayed
Like who's on my side
All for you
My addiction to hide
If only I could go back in years
I'd heal my fears
If only I could go back in time
I'd save my mind
But now I'm addicted
Addicted to you
Human puppet, skin, wood and glue
Addicted to you
Addicted to you
Addicted to you
Addicted to you

Mom

Today I discovered some pics in a box
I couldn't control my heartbeat
It was about April '91
I was on your bike on the back-seat
We traveled through gardens, flowers and trees
We spoke with the stars and the sky
Your reassuring voice was telling me
"I'll show you the wonders of life"
Clean my heart from the poison
Lead me to my room
Far from the cold of the world
Catch my dreams, take a colour
Paint them on the wall
Then turn off the light and close the door
Mom, hold my hands
Mom, shield my rest
The cold of these days reminds me the time
When I was alone in a classroom
The look to the window, waiting your face
And the cheeks, covered by teardrops
So I plug my ears, and I close my eyes
I put down my head on the table
Now I'm in my bed, ready to sleep
And you are telling a fable
Clean my heart from the poison
Lead me to my room
Far from the cold of the world
Catch my dreams, take a colour
Paint them on the wall
Then turn off the light and close the door
Today I discovered that I'm 25
And so many years have gone
Among all the wonders I saw in my life
The first is the love of a mom.
Clean my heart from the poison
Far from the cold of the world
Catch my dreams, take a colour
Then turn off the light and close the door

Across the wetness of summer
Across the ways of my town
The wind of solitude cherishes my hair
The burning sun of despair
I walk alone through bitterness
I found relief in loneliness
Silver frames of memories
Are glinting on my fantasies
Too many lies detected
Too many pacts neglected
From your kisses to isolation
From your embraces to separation
You were the drug I was addicted
You were the queen with golden lips
You were the wine who calm my thirst
You were the one, you were the first
A lot of tears along my face
While I'm reflecting under the sunset
With your image over my eyes
And a ring in my hand
I'll burn tons of letters
I'll cry on piles of pictures
Retracting me and you togheter
Maybe forever...

Along an endless road
That will bring me home
In this night
I'm not alone
Throught the highway's lights
The stars draw your name
I know my life
Won't ever be the same
Upset my feelings
And twist my soul
No explanations needed
In this secret place
All your pain forgotten
Into my embrace
Two universes
Together in this room
With no inhibitions
A travel to the moon
Upset my feelings
And twist my soul
Destinies have chosen
To cross our ways
You, the brightest comet
Of the outer space
No explanations needed
In this secret place
All your pain forgotten
Into my embrace

I would tell you about the things
They put me through
The pain I've been subjected to
But the lord himself would blush
The countless feasts laid at my feet
Forbidden fruits for me to eat
But I think your pulse would start to rush
Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Morality would frown upon
Decency look down upon
The scapegoat fate's made of me
But I promise now, my judge and jurors
My intentions couldn't have been purer
My case is easy to see
I'm not looking for a clearer conscience
Peace of mind after what I've been through
And before we talk of any repentance
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

Fragile

There was a time
Where the emotions were suppressed
But the others seemed
Pleased to be blind
Forced to wear a mask
Identities denied
Through the mass, well instructed to never
Cross the line
I was lost in a starless night
You switched on my light
Your reality was my dream
Loud as my scream
Just for a while
And so fragile
There was a time
Where my freedom was your eyes
Running fast, in the heat
Messin' up our lives
No one can describe
What you meant for me
But nothing I forgot
I'll miss you endlessly
I was lost in a starless night
You switched on my light
Wake me up from pain
Engrave on my heart your name
Your reality was my dream
Loud as my scream
Just for a while
And so fragile

While the world sleeps
And the moon reflects my shade
Here alone in silence
In the cockpit of my car
The songs looped in my headphones
The traffic lights, the streets
I don't know where I am going, but my only wish
Is running away from my thoughts
When the daytime
Takes me to the bound
It comes the sunset
Healing all my wounds
Like the sound of the sea
In the shell
Hear the chaos
Rumbling in myself
It's a journey
In a place that no one knows
You and me, by hand
Through the caves of my soul
Where the night is so deep, and road is so steep
And the top seems so far
But I'll put a swing, right on the peak
To sit and watch the sunrise
When the daytime
Takes me to the bound
It comes the sunset
Healing all my wounds
Like the sound of the sea
In the shell
Hear the chaos
Rumbling in myself
Perchè il buio più nero
Non è quello che vedi nel cielo
È l'abisso nel cuore, nel nulla vagare
Sin quando consumi le suole
Ho accettato il destino
Di un continuo conflitto interiore
Un silenzio apparente
Mentre dentro mi assorda il rumore
When the daytime
Takes me to the bound
It comes the sunset
Healing all my wounds
Like the sound of the sea
In the shell
Hear the chaos
Rumbling in myself
