1. Exegi monumentum

It flows, but we're unable to realize that
It destroy, unquenchable is its power
It wraps, every single breath
It guides, our deeds inexorably

Hopelessly the cruel sandglass one tries to escape
Letting its sand grains for everyone
Oh, there's a planty of grains
Yet no one's ever succeded in pickin'up one

The few leave a trace
The few carve a name
The one who can add grains
To a granitic sandglass
Anyone would try to scream
Exegi Monumentum

Exegi monumentum aere perennius
Regalique situ pyramidum altius
Quod non imber edax, non aquilo impotens
Possit diruere aut innumerabilis annorum series
Et fuga temporum

Then immortal he became
He turned knight on untamed thoroughbred
With other few he rides
Together they'll ride ‘till the end
Anyone would ride with them
Anyone would try to scream
Exegi monumentum

2.Amphitrion

They encircle night in winters
In our eyes only darkness and black
Minged with the moonlight reflected in the lake
Sinously confused by nocturnal haze and winter's fog

This is the Amphitrion
Temple of the shadows of the wood
This is the Amphitrion
Only shadows can get there

The only sound is nature
The only presence are shades
The only sound is nature
The only sensation is chill!

A path leads us to the dark night
When what should appear but a hidden arch
Here it stands a huge monumentum
Here it rises sunken and around
Surrounded by ancient walls and strong
By falling through the narrow portal
The sky opens and the sound of night thrills
With echoes of unknown nature

This is the Amphitrion
Temple of the shadows of the wood
This is the amphitrion
Only shadows can get there

A path leads us to the dark night
When what should appear but a hidden arch
Here it stands a huge monumentum
Here it rises sunken and around
Surrounded by ancient walls and strong
By falling through the narrow portal
The sky opens and the sound of night thrills
With echoes of unknown nature

Unknowable and lonely to the outside
It's impressive inside

This is the Amphitron
Only shadows can get there
This is the Amphitrion
Temple of the shadows of the wood

3. The point of no return

...And my life is passing 'tween light and darkness,
the iris precludes to me its joyful reality
keeping for me its dark side
for wich my mind has fallen with sweet drownsinness
Like a bee on a rose

Divine sensation!
A gloomy breath with a weavering intensity
the artificial is banned, only nature speaks
and its tongue joins together soul, mind and heart
no more joy but pain its given order

It's the point of no return
It's the point of no return, people

When loneliness is normality
And your lying a obscure shelter
You'll find out that the man is the real cheat
A pride without faithfulness

The haze will wrap slowly your limbs
and give to your heart that warmth
Often matching with the intense cold
Son of a winter, his majesty by my words

It's the point of no return
It's the point of no return, people

If I'm alone thanks to me
If I'm alone it's my own fault, it's my own torture
people call, people blame, people speak badly
but my mind flies alone like the wind

...And my life is passing 'tween darkness and mistery
But amid the whole there's a thought, a wisper,
an emotion, alone on the path of desolation
I'm listening to, and to the whispering nature I turn

"Not a tombstone,
But you will be my grave mother heart
Not a graveyard
But you'll keep my sleep, wide wood!
Not a man,
You nature will shelter my next life,
Whatever I may be!"

4.Odium generis humani

Those who live in the cold and dump realm
Those who live in misanthropy of the soul
They have worn the symbols of hate,
Friendly night supports them!

They scream their creed!
Their hymn shrieks!

Loud silence surrounds them
Few shade-surrounded light beside'em
Their mind only reaches for plans of revenge:
“They shall pay, punished for their deeds!”

By achieving this long and fascinating path
Shadows can withdraw in the woods
Frozen and confused, amongst branches and trees
Forever surrounding and screening them

They'll be called, they'll invoked by many
They'll reply by the nature's consent
Those who'll fear and hate them
They will be punished with no mercy!
