1. FAR FROM YOU

A wave of despair
Sweeps over me
It's a new failure
That buries me
My fragile ties
With written life
Disappear in turn
Harassed by time

Fly away, far from all
Far from you, free
Fly away, far from all
Far from you

I'm far from everything
In another world
Where the will to believe
In another way
Towards serenity
And towards happiness
Gives me strength to ignore
Submissive fools

Fly away, far from all
Far from you, free
Fly away, far from all
Far from you

That dense fog
That mask on the future
Is the last trial
That I have to take
Will I take a step too many ?
A giant's stride
That blocks up behind it
The doors of return

I'm not afraid of the unknown
And I will always go ahead
Pushing back still further
The limits of reason
`Cause maybe one day
I'll find a way out of the deadlock
The proof of another truth

Tired of living, following blindly
The guided steps towards this horizon
Where our dreams and hopes are shattered
Is it the reflection of our lives ?


2. THE MISSING PERSON

Will I see this magic star again
Who gave me love
Who gave me everything I needed
Loneliness doesn't have a hold on me
Death will help me understand this mistake

The snake holds his head up
Out of fear of the enemy
He will make short work of him
As always
The snake holds his head up
Out of fear of the enemy
He will make short work of him

The sun was fated to hide
Leaving behind it a distressing absence
Ten years of sadness, making up a world
The price of a love one consumes without mercy
I had to learn how to stand again
How to walk, how to dance, how to laugh
Since this so black day I saw the sun hide
Without a word, without a cry

The acrobat has fallen, in another universe
Where life has only one meaning
No future before him, like a dog one feeds
He will go the whole way, until he's sick to death

The snake holds his head up
Out of fear of the enemy
He will make short work of him
As always
The snake holds his head up
Out of fear of the enemy
He will make short work of him

Now I realize how wrong I was
I don't know how to break the spell you put on me
There's only a name and a few pictures left
But I still keep my resentment alive

Fifteen years already and still a coolness between us
Your departure hurt, but your death won't affect me
The spite I had when you left us
Is contained in the veil I throw over my past

The snake holds his head up
Out of fear of the enemy
He will make short work of him
As always
The snake holds his head up
Out of fear of the enemy
He will make short work of him


3. FINAL TRAGEDY

Forever lost
Behind the mask
The reflection
Is just a lie

In the darkness
No more landmarks
I need someone
To show me the way
All these faces
So much dissension
Internal confusion
Who tops the bill ?

Oh, Lord, don't let the curtain fall
I fear what lies behind the wall
I am lost inside this theater of pain
I don't know which part I have to play
Maybe I got the wrong script right from the start
`Cause the audience doesn't enjoy the show

Feeding my disease, falling into the trap
Striving to escape, driving me insane
Is there a key to unlock the cell
And set me free from the prison of my mind
Slowly sinking in the quicksand of my thoughts
Nothing to hang onto
Falling apart

Oh, Lord, don't let the curtain fall
I fear what lies behind the wall

Inner battle
Quest for power
Aliens inside
Eat me alive
Who comes off best ?
No more confined
Who pulls the strings ?
No compromise
No more disguise

Mental distress
Access denied
Abandon hope
Banish all thoughts
Last repression
Introversion
Never again
Tragic demise
