1. WORLD ON THE EDGE

If time's like a mirror reflecting ourselves,
and if past is the diary recording our doings:
Why then don't we learn, turn away, and proceed,
harm our souls, deny the essence we need?

We shy away from that difficult way
It seems to be easier to go astray …

The world's on the edge of being in a blaze
End up those wars, end up all the hate

Beams crossed, threatening with fire
Subtle mission of a strange desire
Green cloth, funeral procession
Mega-death for a paradise obsession
Crescent sneering, monstrance bleeding
Battle-cries of the warlords breeding

The world's on the edge of being in a blaze
End up those wars, end up all the hate

Life is a gift we should handle with care
But we kill, and destroy for our idea of god
We're disdaining the divine in every man
since the very first time any dogma began

If love is the key for our freedom, and peace,
and if wisdom's the mother of tolerance:
Why then don't we see, understand, and agree
there is only one god, and it's our humanity

We close our brains from that difficult truth
Hold on to the prophet or follow the rood …

The world's on the edge of being in a blaze
End up those wars, end up all the hate
The world's on the edge of being in a blaze
End up those wars, end up all the hate

3. NIGHTS IN DAZE

Doubts, oh doubts are eating me
They are raising their pervading voice
I'm soaked of hedonistic agony
It seems that I can't take my choice

Who like me is moving on this mother earth
without no home and out of aim
Who like me is rarely feeling mirth
is filled with doubts and nagging pain

Life's a hell, a bowl of dust
Nights in daze and soaked with lust
Sense is far, pain is near
Nights in daze, and exciting fear
Life's a hell, a bowl of dust
Nights in daze and soaked with lust
Sense is far, pain is near
Nights in daze, and exciting fear

Doubts, oh doubts are eating me,
I'm far of human beings now and here
Still I'm seeking for my destiny,
it's always close but never clear

Who like me is moving in this twisted world
deprived of hope and zest for life
Who like me is deeply caught in the poet's word
is damned to muse, and damned to strive

Life's a hell, a bowl of dust
Nights in daze and soaked with lust
Sense is far, pain is near
Nights in daze, and exciting fear
Life's a hell, a bowl of dust
Nights in daze and soaked with lust
Sense is far, pain is near
Nights in daze, and exciting fear


4. SIRIUS RISING

[Prelude]
Silence rises in your solitude
Just lay down and close your eyes
Sirius lights, and dreams unite
The death's a blessing in disguise

Kept all life at a sheltered place
in the mountains high and lorn
A prophesied cosmic child
of a virgin she was born
In a mystery-play of a morbid man
there was no escape from fate
Held untouchable and set apart,
the blossom of his shade

Journey through the fire no way to be reborn
Sirius is rising, baneful break of dawn
Journey through the fire no way to be reborn
Sirius is rising, baneful break of dawn

Di Mambro said, "stab the antichrist",
and a newborn child was killed
He cut the cosmic lace in those ghastly days
yet the temple's not rebuilt
Felonious acts they now will end
Sirius rises in the sky
A slayer's chance in a starry dance
The cosmic child must die

Journey through the fire...

[Postlude]
Silence now completes your solitude
A final breath then close your eyes...


5. SEASONS OF GLASS

All my life I was trapped in glass
Reality outside
A life in dreams and novel lines
Benighted were my days
'Imagine' there's no here and now
Despaired the world of mine
The emptiness between the words
Is the key of Madman's Maze

The season came to break the glass
'Double Fantasy'
Unraveled maze, I'd signed the book
'The Catcher in the Rye'
The world outside now learned my name
The chap who razed the light
A day in life of emptiness
And I'll be known until I die

I let you feel I'm crippled inside
You come to learn a sleepless night
Serve yourself with mind games
Look at me - remember
Sunday bloody Sunday
Just like starting over

See his body bleeding on the floor
He won't get back to serve the beat no more
I'm his judge, and hangman too
I'd left my glassy cage
December eight, you'll keep that date
For ever and an age

I let you feel I'm crippled inside
You come to learn a sleepless night
Serve yourself with mind games
Look at me - remember
Sunday bloody Sunday
Just like starting over
