1. SEVEN MONTHS

Departed
Shipwrecked at the edge of the
Oceans,
Torn apart from the world,
Counting the dawns, counting every day.

My blood runs cold while I feel the frostbite.
My blood runs black while the grief corrupts me.
Waves assault me, as the tide rises.
How did I get to this?
Why did you leave my heart so numb?

Dusk and dawn horizons bring me another day,
Seven months are passed and thins will never be the same.
Pursuing a safe place for my blackened heart,
From the world afar, I am tasting the fear.

I promised every single God I won't forgive,
I promised every single God I won't forget,
Counting every scar that keeps me away,
From losing the thought of you.
How we can name ourselves free?
Every sense of warmth is lost.

Awaken
These are the hours of Grievance,
The hours of Penance,
The hours of ghosts, haunting my sleep.

Dusk and dawn horizons bring me another day,
Seven months are passed and thins will never be the same.
Pursuing a safe place for my blackened heart,
From the world afar, I am tasting the fear.


2. DAPHNE

Countless miles
Can't separate me from you.
I am the Sun,
I am your master.

Rising skies
Hail the coming of a
New day, a new dawn,
She leads me to victory.

Dark waves, into the sky,
Claim for my source.
Black stabs, that cannot hide
My rotten blood.
Needles, deep in my eyes,
Purge my body.
Cockroaches, into my mind,
Wolf down the world.

Now my soul,
Through the darkness,
Shuns away the sun.
New illusions are broken,
In my mirror's eyes.

White leaves, into the ground,
Open my soul for a
New truth, I will survive
Through my own judgment.
Water digs in my veins,
Old memories of a
Lover, who creates in my life
A new path of pain.

Now my soul,
Through the darkness,
Shuns away the sun.
New illusions are broken,
In my mirror's eyes.

Countless miles
Can't separate me from you.
I am the Sun,
I am your master.

Rising skies
Hail the coming of a
New day, a new dawn,
She leads me to victory.

Reject yourself,
No way you can escape from
Me, no way.
I will take what's mine.

You are gone,
But I can't stand losing you.
You'll be my sign,
And you'll be mine forever.


3. LEVIATHAN

A huge expanse of blue pierced
The abyss of a reversed sky,
Maybe straight in a twisted world.

Here is the Ocean, wide and monstrous.
A grave ready to be filled.
Between sleeping and living lives.
Let the game begin.
The creature you shaped for your amusement.
I strongly want to start the show!

Let the Danse Macabre begin!
Everything will burn, sinking in the depth!
Everything will burn, sinking in the depth!

Tomorrow rests to forget this misery,
Hopes of golden dreams leave this sad reality,
One night to destroy your rejected universe,
Your ultimate aims are cracks in inaction.

You, Master of everything! Above and below, up to the sun.
Look at the rushing crowd, that sips the final lie to the emptiness.
Let the flames overwhelm the old cities,
That bend under a trembling implosion of pride.

Tomorrow rests to forget this misery,
Hopes of golden dreams leave this sad reality,
One night to destroy your rejected universe,
Your ultimate aims are cracks in inaction.

A huge expanse of blue pierced
The abyss of a reversed sky,
Maybe straight in a twisted world.

Created to end the Universe.
Cradle of my pleasures.
Commanded by no one.
I'm the secret beyond eyes and vision.
Gives a wearing close through hell.
Take refuse in your fantasies!

Raise, Leviathan, raise! Sing your requiem to their world!
Sing your requiem to their world!

I destroyed entire cities, I killed helpless people,
So satisfied with the ruin I have caused.
I am so glad to see a real pain in the eyes of those who survived.
If they were dead,
I would have lost my delight.
We're going away, my monster and I!


4. ETERNAL CIRCLE

Three stars of revenge,
Through your misery into the dark song.
To release your soul, after the awful scream.
So harsh but never safe,
prisoner of your eternity,
Torn by emptiness.
Lay, lay down your arms.

Life is a single day of mourning and sorrow,
Despite the light in my eyes.
I have to quiet my snakes until tomorrow
and reject the offers of Death.

Blood and poison drip endlessly on rusty swords.
Deep wounds and childish tears,
Useless envious thoughts.
Powerless avenger of the white round,
Prisoner of a lethal circle of failures and fears.
Lay, lay down your arms

Life is a single day of mourning and sorrow,
Despite the light in my eyes.
I have to quiet my snakes until tomorrow
and reject the offers of Death.
Angels can be by my side in legions of mercy,
But nothing will take me outside.
Gods, blast my wings, I won't fly to another crime,
I'll rest till the end.

Angels can be by my side in legions of mercy,
But nothing will take me outside.
Gods, blast these wings, I won't fly, give me my peace.
Life is a single day of mourning and sorrow,
Despite the light in my eyes.
I have to quiet my snakes until tomorrow
and reject the offers of Death.
Angels can be by my side in legions of mercy,
But nothing will take me outside.
Gods, blast my wings, I won't fly to another crime,
I'll rest till the end.

I had my single day of mourning and sorrow,
Turn out the light in my eyes.
I had to rule my reign, but not tomorrow,
I am the offer to Death.
Angels are here by my side in legions of mercy,
I am not changing my mind.
Beyond this towers of knives, I will be fine
And rest till the end.


5. THE HIDDEN PATH

Groping in reality,
Oppressed by twisted spaces,
Sinking into flows of memories.

Without places to come from,
Without places to go,
Without fields to wonder.

Days of morbid brightness,
Painful to my eyes,
I wish I could close them.

Lost in dazing silence,
Seeking to escape,
I'm about to give up.

No, I'm here, you'll find this way out,
These doors will open when you'll close your eyes,
Step through them with your inner self,
I'll be your sail hoisted to wander the infinity.

I see my destination,
The road that I must travel,
It doesn't seem so far away.

When I'll reach the tricky veil,
I will cross the boundaries,
Of life, time and space.

And when I'll greet the day,
I'll be my own master,
I'll be my own king.

Now that I've melted my chains,
I will go beyond the doors,
And walk the hidden path.

Yes, I'm here, you've found your way out,
You've broken the illusion, now walk on this path,
You're getting the codes of all times and lives,
Now every dimension will knee at your feet.

Emerald heart, find you truth,
And look at what is written inside you.

Emerald heart, face your fears,
The ancient universe behind me blessed you.


6. PICTURES OF LIFE

A place along the way appears where the Time slows down,
Everything's still, leaving only a picture of life.
The mystery of this moment is there beyond the mist
And now I am holding the whole unknown, falling down.

And so I see my figure
Shown in the scenes where I'd like to be the hero,
But I know they're lying features
Of spaces that nobody has ever seen.

The sunset blooms in the night,
As down blows out through the morning,
I'm not able to touch those who are waking
Somewhere around this world.
My travel keeps going on
In the hermitage of dreams,
We're tears, filling this stream of time,
We're giving a meaning to life.

I need to whisper my fragility
I'm here in this Universe, now I can breathe,
Without talking to myself only to say that
I was there too.

I remember everything about that shred of life,
Taken from escaping time,
I still don't know how to stop.
I remember that night
Gone before being written down,
Lived nowhere,
A place that I still cannot find.

The sunset blooms in the night,
As down blows out through the morning,
I'm not able to touch those who are waking
Somewhere around this world.
My travel keeps going on
In the hermitage of dreams,
We're tears, filling this stream of time,
We're giving a meaning to life.


7. PEARLS OF SUFFERING

Seasons are a fancy of Gods.
Those who were unfaithful to them,
Met the fearsome enemy. The storm,
No book could ever tell the anger
Of the wild waters thundering in the skies
Or the blaze of thousand waves,
Separating from the sea.

White curls of clouds, the anger was calmed down.
Now rain sounds like babies' breath.

Thunderbolts, eyeless ghosts pierce the bones.
Here comes the hailstorm, pearls of suffering
Destroying all the flowers, denting the bells,
The temples are trembling, the good preachers inside
Are setting their teeth.

Drops make the trees harmonize a tender melody.
Sunlight give back to this land the appearance of a kingdom.

Then the rain comes up like a fever,
Holy duel between earth and seas,
Waters release everything.
Hell is empty, the devils are here.
Warm rains are tears of mild spirits,
Kisses of escaping love,
Sun and water are blending
To heal the evil lords.

Fathers lost their sons, friendships are undermined.
Weird shadows appear from the sea, looking for their
Victims, sailors' crying leads to insanity.
Heaven's falling down, the Moon will sink in this surge.

Light is stronger after the storm,
Sweetest flight up to the rainbow.
We are such stuff as rain is made of.


8. DUALITA

Io
Dischiudo i segreti del mondo,
Bottendo la via
Dei libri, del senno, dei numeri,
Dell'alchimia.

La mente mortale tende per
Natura
Al cielo, alle stelle, all'alba
Ventura.

Di giusto ed ingiusto, con
Irriverenza,
Ricercano invano virtù e
Conoscenza.

Ma solo se onorano il bene ed il
Male,
Potranno trascender la mente
Mortale.

Da uno stilodi Gemma impressa in
Sublime smeraldo Saggezza
Scaturi;

A pochi eletti fra chi cercò verità,
Tre volte grande, Egli l/arcano
Rivelò.

Attraversando innumeri perigli,
Di bocca in bocca si spande il
Mistero.

Per raggiungere gli alti cieli
Del divino impero,
Alla ricerca del sacro sapere che
Empio
Mano umana rese.

Tralascia il pensiero e rifrena la
Lingua,
Per giungere al luogo ove ben
s/impingua.

Se non si vaneggia, contempla il
Mistero,
Più grande del cosmo, nè falso
Nè vero.

Ma solo se onorano il bene ed il
Male,
Potranno trascender la mente

9. BY GODS STOLEN

In the light the world began,
When spirits went for a walk,
Forgetful of the deep words,
I was at the Gods' drawstring;

In the dark and quivering forest,
While visions freed the eyes,
I saw Gods, men's deceivers,
Exchange themselves wise secrets.

The Leaves asked: "What's the root of poetry?"
The Rime said: "Gods created the first Poet to bring peace among them"
The Leaves asked: "What's the story of this man?"

The Rime said: "The envy of other
Men drained him of his knowledge.
They transfused a potion which brought
Inspiration to anyone who drank it"

Mead was created, stolen by Gods,
To deny every pleasure.
Men were deprived of that blood,
No one was able to reproduce it.
Rivers of verses, scarlet and gold.

To know what a thing really is,
You've to become that thing.

The Leaves said: "So cruel are Men and their wishes"
The Rime answered: "Who was born from the dust
Can't touch the sky without a miserable fall"

Dreams are the language of Gods,
Poetry goes beyond truth and lies.
Reason is the human tool,
In pursuit of fairness.
Dreams are the language of Gods,
Poetry goes beyond truth and lies.
Reason is the human tool,
In pursuit of fairness.


10. BY HUMANS CLAIMED

This heard the man, uncertain into advancing,
Handed arm and hand to the cup pending,
And brought that to the mouth,
Fairies' companion made himself.

Fairytale
In a land with a magic gate,
Miracles
Of another time,
In this collapsing game where we play for life.

Fairytale
In a land with a magic gate,
Miracles
Of another time,
In this collapsing game where we play for life.


11. TORN BANNERS

Foundations, built on human pride,
Corrupted by this sense of failure.
Walls, once high as honour,
Enslaved by poisonous ivy,
Stone idols are smothered.

Through the seasons change,
We watch our towers ruining.
Through the seasons change,
We watch our bridges burning.
What have we become?

Heroes are falling as oceans arise,
Tear down the banners and taste the nothingness.
Heroes are falling as time conquers all,
Tear down the walls, the waves come crashing them down.

A grey sky overwhelms our glory,
Last breath of our human mankind
Enlightened by unnamed stars.
Words, once set in stone, are forgotten
Beholding our hearts.

Our glory is fading,
While the stars are grieving.
When did it all become so meaningless?

Heroes are falling as oceans arise,
Tear down the banners and taste the nothingness.
Heroes are falling as time conquers all,
Tear down the walls, the waves come crashing them down.

Heroes are falling as oceans arise,
Tear down the banners and taste the nothingness.
Heroes are falling as time conquers all,
Tear down the walls, the waves come crashing them down.

Burn all your hope, burn all your pride,
Our heroes are dead.
Burn all your hope, burn all your pride,
Our idols are wrecked.
Choke all your hope, choke all your pride,
Our flags are burnt down.
Choke all your hope, choke all your pride,
Our banners are torn.
