I wonder if I’m insane Is their life a kind of comedy? Habits are for me worse than hell I like to succumb to a spell No dream in sight... No fear Just a way to follow No dream in sight... No fear Only lies to... Only lies to swallow Touch your passion Forget the reason Caress your vices And make them a fairy goal The conflicts which build both soul and heart Please hear them, Before ending in oblivion This is all you... This is all you get Lies are only... Lies are all you let All the wishes you made are born to fail Shame to undergo Just a way to... A way to follow Life is for them conceptual With guidelines to share between them all Why don’t you see in life shelter, Give an aim and go to another side? Am I insane? Do I live in a cell? You know that your way has already been designed? Am I insane if I see in the life a tragical play? Am I insane if I accept all my dualities? Am I insane if I refuse to pray in vain? And to take nothing at face value?
On this river of silence Fed by these sorrows Comes with innocence A lust for the crows She smiles like an angel Despite of her travel They will catch your dream, Will be fed with your scream Chorus: And on this river of silence I’m traveling to the dark I’m traveling through the dark and I See a face in the distance That waits for me to come And everything around Is so deep and strong In the end when all seems to drown in the sand Every fortress has got its defender Each journey has got its watcher My name is Charon I’m an illusion They will catch your dream, Will be fed with your scream (Chorus) All her words sound like a whisper Anywhere she looks for her lover How to go through death on its own And rejoin the darkness all alone? Then I think about myself Ashes are falling down on me And comes what they call emotion I see she feels pity of me (Chorus)

I had failed in love And my heart was so cold Did it beat before? As I had to run to the other side Then a smile has come to me He was also hurt by life and disgrace Words that came in my mind were: “You belong to me” Suddenly I realize What “at first sight” would mean. I would blame my life He should have come before I give all my days and nights To another one To another one And I thought for the first time That there was a way I didn’t know Now I see I’m the immoral one Don’t care about this at all Cause I need to answer to submission And I really feel my grave has gone Sure, I’ll never get down

I forget to see the sun I forget when it does come I lost the joy that makes me dense I don’t know when it has begun When the fears arrive Engulf your head, write in it as a scribe Your mind has resigned Emotions are running away Supplanted by the dark What happens after having accepted this unease? Conjuring your opinions to make a way for the devil Did you feel so disarmed? Now who controls your arm? You were so dissected that You became blind to this new nightmare Lose yourself into my inquisitive eyes They will reveal you a glorious past You were like nothing, a piece of dirt before Considering the world as a pretty whore I want to transcend Why defeat the purpose that they put in my brain? Now I am not alone This creed is now my passion It’s too late I am gone You have not to blaspheme They have taught me to wear a good looking face But growing in the dark Lives something diabolical Ready to break your fate I remember the man you were, so far away from now You could have bewitched even an angel So far away from now Where are you now? In ecstasy What happens after? Do you enjoy what your mission is? Do you see your mind is toxic like a cancer? Don’t try, don’t try to understand I want to transcend Why defeat the purpose that they put in my brain? Now I am not alone This creed is now my passion It’s too late I am gone You have not to blaspheme They have taught me to wear a good looking face But growing in the dark Lives something diabolical Ready to break your fate

I’m haunted by something I’m not really able to define Within the light, a call, it’s so divine And his eyes in front of me are like An eerie shelter for my mind And my soul just fights to know Take care of the lives you take They give a sense to your existence I feel your anger, your betrayal Don’t close your eyes in this way Get away and run away, power is a prison Like cyanide through your veins It burns you forever... forever and ever I want to know if the end is near Though I will feel myself with their hidden fears And do the only souls I can breed Show me the key of what I am vowed to be Who will know what I have to see? What you really want from me? Within the light a void is inviting me now Who else can hear my call? They will try to have you fall Like no one else they all envy you They want to leave your burnt soul In this garden of vices Get away and run away Go straight never come back You’re entirely in their hands It burns you forever... forever and ever I want to know if the end is near Though I will feel myself with their hidden fears And do the only souls I can breed Show me the key of what I am vowed to be This is what they want So pure so bright Here is such a frost So sad They talk about you In immortal soul You’ll seek safety Keep your human life Maybe it will save you The keeper told you’re immortal Why do you think I give you this choice? Far away from your deepest desires Trying to light off the candle and wish me to die Do you feel the tears on your lips? It’s your heart that you condemned Far away from your deepest desires You ride alone into the night Far away from all these shores A thousand candles on the floor Crimson silk and velvet tense The candle’s keeper awaits me there All these lights for all these lives They took my fate, erase my past Who is this strange, I cannot I see Behind the veil of tragedy?

Sample: If this evil force can be stopped and destroyed Before actual nuclear war begins then the Universe will be saved Come to this appalling assumption It tends to fall in oblivion But why should it be so absurd? Think about your last words No words, no time for any regrets Nothing for what I have not done yet I'll face a rain of mixed pictures Which ones of them are my treasures? Time will be for the essence I would suffer from your absence Life can be a maze but I have thought of you all days In every sound, I can hear your whisper Anywhere I see my lover How to go through life on its own Rejoin the darkness all alone? You have a broken heart But things can turn around There is nothing left at all Nobody anywhere I learn death on my own Now I fave the rule of existence When the world will go out I'll take with me your precious name And clouds will draw your beautiful and smiling face I'll kiss death with a heated heart In the reign of the flames I'll take with me your lovely name I know without any doubt that you'll do the same I will die with serenity Hey come on death, take me away I bring with me my jewel Come on death, take me away The life was also cruel Please, tell me that in your world of chaos I'll remember her face I'll offer you my servility You could grind my soul Shall I say that you already know? I'd be ready to be sacrificed You know you are the only one Who owned my mind and my heart I really take pity on those who missed passion Just for a wretched and pathetic redemption Winds will caress my hair While fire will kiss my skin My glance toward the west I will look at an inexistent sun And I would probably yell When the world will go out I'll take with me your precious name And clouds will draw your beautiful and smiling face I'll kiss death with a heated heart In the reign of the flames I'll take with me your lovely name I know without any doubt that you'll do the same I will die with serenity Hey come on death, take me away I bring with me my jewel Come on death, take me away The life was also cruel

You were my succubus The one who made me believe in “us” We found the way to Avalon That so many people dream on Hidden away from all mortals sights There is a place where fantasy lies A haven for all lost on the sea A place where I wanted to be You may laugh You may cry At me You may die From your throne Forever more So far from me Away from Avalon You are not the one who possess me And I only have one word to say I’m not your slave You were my lady You betrayed me, you chose for me Taking with you, your secrets Leaving me with regrets Hidden away from all mortals sights There is a place where fantasy lies You may laugh You may cry At me You may die From your throne Forever more So far from me Away from Avalon You are not the one who possess me And I only have one word to say I’m not your slave I leave this black rose on the ground You and me know it was our bound Stamping on it firmly Hating it for eternity Hidden away from all mortal sights There is a place where fantasy lies A haven for all lost on the sea A place where I wanted to be

So frail, illusive and ephemeral Your so called richness is superficial I tasted your fucking magnificence But love with you was a non-sense Nothing can really hurt or touch you Your heart is the one of a statue I believed you could open your mind How could I be so blind? You’re only interested in your life Your selfishness is like a knife Malice in Wonderland Your world is only built with sand So frail, illusive and ephemeral Your so called richness is superficial I don’t know really why I never watched the sky I prefer to be this woman This one who delights in an illusive world I will go out of my mind I’ll never see the stars Why shall we give a sense to our life? We will all meet one day on the other side Did you lie to me? Did you lie to yourself? How could I be so blind? You told me that you gave me your heart To manipulate was your own art But one day, your world will collapse Realizing many years have elapsed The darkness of your heart will spread And death wishes will burn your head Malice in Wonderland Your world is only built with sand So frail, illusive and ephemeral Your so called richness is superficial I don’t know really why I never watched the sky I prefer to be this woman This one who delights in an elusive world I will go out of my mind I’ll never see the stars Why shall we give a sense to our life? We will all meet one day on the other side
