When Good Men Go to War
Sail the waves, tame the rage of the seas, Dreaming the earth, wait the touch of a breeze, Ten Thousand days, we are long far from home, Time has came, time has came to return! How many tales, how many stories to recount, How many faces, how many reasons to get down, How many thrill, too many advices at your ear, Never stand still, how many illusions to believe... Cast your eyes ahead, to face new seasons, Cast your eyes behind, to find another reason Why did I leave? I'm trying to remember, Then I wait the night, where everything is so clear. Waiting for the Dawn, Waiting for another goal, Light the fire, Enlight the sky, Light the Bivouac, not say die! When the wind don't blow you have to row, When the night is black looking for something to glow, Breathless, restless, You can't mind the goal if you forget your home; Every scars we have, until the end, will resound in every meeting, fight or glance, We are every choices, Bad, good, evil, would you go back?!?... NO!!! Waiting for the Dawn, Waiting for another goal, Light the fire, Enlight the sky, Light the Bivouac, not say die! Time goes by, I look ahead, not behind, Memories flow, Like a river in my mind, A Tale in the fire, From the start till this night, You can't lie, neither try, Like a mirror, like your eyes... Remember, Red ember, The reasons that move your steps, Be shelter, Flame teller, For what I gave, what I lost, what I take. Waiting for the Dawn, Waiting for another goal, Light the fire, Enlight the sky, Light the Bivouac, not say die! [INTERLUDE] Dreaming A piece of earth, after all this ocean, Let down, I can feel the end, I can't feel I'm chosen Through the stars our guide, Waiting for a sign, for a peak, for a climb, Waiting for another day alive For another tale untold! Face to face, Three kinds of eyes I met in time, Eyes don't lie, The mind can fall but the heart is right, One will change his stars, The second look at what's moving around, Last man comes when all is done Can you find your place? In the darkness, light the path, We decide where is our way, There's no troubles, there's no rain! Flame of wisdom, when is dark, Please, remind, to go ahead We can't lose what's in our past! Stories, They come and crush, to mess up your life, and In the end, We have to write our greatest chapter... Fire, burn and shine, Remember all the stories, all the night, Remember our promise, will and pride, Until another dawn will rise!

Hostile, let me cry, Angry face on my deny, High wall, watch me fall, One tough voice, it's your call. How much that tears worth, To choose the right, to train my heart, Your steady hand to catch me, Again to raise me... Run away to leave your sight! I run again and you're behind! Sons of a wolf we will rise today, Ready to guide our pack, If I see with my own eyes, If I decide where is the right, If I show my fang because they lie, Is cause I'm a son of a wolf! How many times I asked why, "Tomorrow you will understand", How many times I see you tired, And find the time to be my friend. Through the darkness you carry and drive, So I can see ever little light, you made me starved, you made me fight, To keep alive my own desires! Watch me fail from afar, I see your traces by my side Proud eyes, silent mouth. Few chances left to reach you, Old breaks that burden on my soul. An Expectation's race, I can't refuse, I must not fail! Run away to leave your sight! I run again and you're behind! Sons of a wolf we will rise today, Ready to guide our pack, If I see with my own eyes, If I decide where is the right, If I show my fang because they lie, Is cause I'm a son of a wolf! Guide, Sign, on my Trail, Strong enough to bear all plains! Until the time to say goodbye! I'll know where I've to watch, To find you again when I'll feel lost, Your blood, in my veins,... in your name! Run away to leave your sight! I run again and you're behind! Sons of a wolf we will rise today, Ready to guide our pack, If I see with my own eyes, If I decide where is the right, If I show my fang because they lie, Is cause I'm a son of a wolf!

All around Their march, All the eyes on the ground, EVERY STEP BLINDED MORE. Messy crowd, Looking proud, Many mouths but no sound, NOTHING TO LOOKING FOR. I can move Through their paths As invisible life, BAITED BY PRECIOUS GOALS. Raised speed, Faded care, Many times to "believe", IN A SILENT WILD RACE. Aware that some gods Will come with all thoughts, they're no worried no more, we are raising the walls! Raiding, Fading, Through these fields of sorrow, See them die for none, Under empty flags, The stride carries on! They created So-Called faces, Every perfect details, To complain their disgrace, "I'm mad...", said, "I'm sad", "How much strange think I am? An addiction to scam! If you don't tell Any bits of your hell, Useless you stand! Everything's lie, but you're in time to... ...take, your busted flush! Aware that some gods, Will forgive every fall, They're no worried, no more... Another brick in the wall! Raiding, Fading, Through these fields of sorrow, See them die for none, Under empty flags, The stride carries on! I Remember that time, When I was a child, The game of the roles, And the roll of the dice... I see killing, For the sake of nothing Ruined, torn, From a chosen fake role, Taken, crawling, In a well create dimension, No chance to reborn, Chasing wrong horizons... Raiding, Fading, Through these fields of sorrow, See them die for none, Under empty flags, The stride carries on!

No one remember How the storm has begun, But the sun slowly turned into DARK-ness in his eyes Clearly open but blind Sick of all useless tries! Wheel is turned, The candle is burned, No withdraw, No cries, No more... Empty words, Studied wars, Many tricks to resolve, All the life spent in name of the GOOD-ness he believed, Be the flame is deceive, And the rocks Like sand in a STORM! You wake up the unknown, No plans, not a warning more! You'll discover the day, When his rules he will put away! Wheel is turned, A man has been warned, No withdraw, No cries, Because..... Demons run, all the angels turn, When a good man goes to war, All the heroes cry, no one will return, When a good man goes to war, ...a good man goes to war! When a good man goes to war!!! You will be sunk, From a sea full of rage, You will be strike, From unstoppable waves. You can try to discover a light, Frown brow and no hope in his eye. He was the last Chance, The last you can find, The time to cash back arrived... and remember that the Tales You can hear, Are no Legend at all... The faith that was spread, Is returning as an hurricane! FOOLISH! You placed your bet, No one god is left!!! Demons run, all the angels turn, When a good man goes to war, All the heroes cry, no one will return, When a good man goes to war, Faith will (be) prove and the flesh will burn When a good man goes to war, The hope is last but the rule is lost, When a good man goes to war! ...a good man goes to war! When a good man goes to war!!!

I will not stay, freeze on a stone, Here my eyes will not cry, I'm not alone. I'm here not to wait, Not even scream, You will not wake. We'll meet once again, Where the time it's not chained. Tales will keep on your memory forever, In a lil, in his white, In a stream shining bright, In the voice of the wind breaking silence of the trees, In a found brand new path, I'll seek for you, Beneath the stars. Time (time) Time .... doesn't mind, The cure you think to crave It's not in the past. Rest now my Dear, the watch is over for you, Beyond my tears, the edge I need to go through. In every single day, in every scar disguised, in every word you teached, in thousand lessons learnt. Between the golden spikes, In every weeping eye, A trace, I will try to find! Sailing the seas In a wild breeze Nothing but me is Almost ready To fight To Face coming time United in your name To say goodbye. Rest now my Dear, the watch is over for you, Beyond my tears, the edge I need to go through.

Only the brave or the foolish have come, Where a line, divides us from life or death, In my mind, in my heart, I look for a reason to fight, Something to die for. In their eyes, You can't lie, What you feel is Emptiness... There's no crime, In my fight, Will I choose the right part to run? Drums in the air, and scream in the distance, I heard the earth shaking beneath my feet I am burning and freezing at the same time, All alone in a forces of thousands In their eyes, You can't lie, What you feel is Emptiness... There's no crime, In my fight, Will I choose the right part to run? All together we will rise our hand [SCREAMING ALOUD] Side by side we fight until the end [THE DEEP BREATH BEFORE THE DIVE] All together on the edge we stand [ECHOES OF WAR CRY] Winds of highland freeze and fill my breath Aware of my fear of jump! Too much empty advices, The first blood blast away your Feelings, dry your mouth and Numb the human Revealing your force and kind There's no crime, In my fight, Will I choose the right part to run? All together we will rise our hand [SCREAMING ALOUD] Side by side we fight until the end [THE DEEP BREATH BEFORE THE DIVE] All together on the edge we stand [ECHOES OF WAR CRY] Winds of highland freeze and fill my breath Aware of my fear of jump! Please forgive anything, We should have done promises, And we did NOT! For all the night Fall asleep, For all the lost memories, Closed deep For all the time of cruelty, I turned away just to flee, To survive again, And when I'll die On the field, Don't call at me as enemy... All together we will rise our hand [SCREAMING ALOUD] Side by side we fight until the end [THE DEEP BREATH BEFORE THE DIVE] All together on the edge we stand [ECHOES OF WAR CRY] Winds of highland freeze and fill my breath Aware of my fear of jump!

Marching through the haze, I feel a coming blaze, It's time to blow my bag, To celebrate my flag. And when the rivals come, Together with the drums, The earth will start to jump, The heartbeat run and run Across the seven seas, High mountains, endless fields, The scream disclose the arrive, The faith to live or die. The pipes will play again, The tunes will fill our veins, A shield that you can't see, A blade that you will feel!!! Breaking the battlefield, Shaking the sky! Enemies will run away, It's Time for them to die! Breaking the battlefield, Shaking the seas! The Power of this mighty sound Will guide to victory! A roaring energy, My flag wave in the wind, No veil, no stop is left, Between you and me! The doupt is blow away, The drone resounds again, My fear of death is die, And this is my war cry!! Breaking the battlefield, Shaking the sky! Enemies will run away, It's Time for them to die! Breaking the battlefield, Shaking the seas! The Power of this mighty sound Will guide to victory!

I can write my tale, I can wash my face, Wash away all my pain, Enlight thousand fires to lighten the night, Lose and reclaim my guides, I can raise my son to lighten his climb, And point far away, to follow a sign. Caress your face and dry all your tears, Deny you the stride... Start a new fight... With my Hands, I'll craft my way, On my Hands, I'll rise again. Holding my shield to defence my life, As the people beside, Cut all the web that lock your step, Showing where is the north, Drawing the map, the course, of a brand new world! Hunting your meal! Build up your home! I can play a guitar to sing you a song, I CAN CLEAN UP YOUR BLOOD! Hold the hammer high, blaze in my eyes, Forge my soul's disguise, Hiding my pains, Soothe your wound of fear, Choosing my fate! Smash your face of dare. All my paths in my hand! Ten Thousand time I got mud, Ten Thousand time I god mad, Trying to catch an handhold, Go through fatigue and bloody goal, fall, fool men I met on my road! So hard to clean dirt away, So Close to dirt them again.... Clap your hands, It's time to play with us, Take the time, And dance for all the night! Hit your chest, Forget your deepest scars, Let me hear, The Rhythm of your heart! Hold the hammer high, blaze in my eyes, Forge my soul's disguise, Hiding my pains, Soothe your wound of fear, Choosing my fate! Smash your face of dare. All my paths in my hand!

I heard about an ancient tale [we're wait for you! Just tell us] It tells about three mighty hawks [enlight the fire and join us!] Remember how we came all here! [the place where we belong!] Remember how we'll say goodbye! He was born in cold winter storm, No one light in the snow, While his father was looking for traces, for signs, To bring hope, to keep safe this new life From the white it appeared, Dark wings for your guide, No more fears, The hawk had blessed that child. One for luck, One for courage, One for wisdom, will they come! All together they will rise, To drive along your fate! Small or Great, Raise your gaze, Three hawks will fly, Three souls allied, The shape of their shadows is warning their rush. On their wings You will grow, And break your manacles. By your side, New lines of sight, And paths to come back home. The man was trying to defend A poor guy from a braggart, Another pain, another unfair For fun of mad man. "Tell me what I'm waiting for, Tell me what I can do! Always Thoughts will come and go, I'm looking for an answer!" Like a justice thunder it fell, He understood his new dare, Bravery with stronger wings, He rush into the wild fray! He was fighting an ancestors war, He prevail in the end, On a green scared boy, with no scars, far from home, In his eyes, terrorized by the fall. Through the clouds his dive, And spreading grey wings wide, Giving time, To choose if kill was right! One for luck, One for courage, One for wisdom, will they come! All together they will rise, To drive along your fate! Small or Great, Raise your gaze, Three hawks will fly, Three souls allied, The shape of their shadows is warning their rush. On their wings You will grow, And break your manacles. By your side, New lines of sight, And paths to come back home. Live in the light, To understand the night, And wait for the darkness, To enjoy the bright(ness)! Hawks in the sky, Horizon as your guide, Your pathway forever, Forever as a child! One for luck, One for courage, One for wisdom, will they come! All together they will rise, To drive along your fate! Small or Great, Raise your gaze, Three hawks will fly, Three souls allied, The shape of their shadows is warning their rush. On their wings You will grow, And break your manacles. By your side, New lines of sight, And paths to come back home.

Ho sempre pensato alla morte, Compagna fedele dei re, Alle incognite dietro le porte, A cosa ha in serbo per me. Prestate attenzione un'istante, Perchè il secondo è già tardi, La scusa è già pronta, è un come amante, E rifugge da tutti gli sguardi. Ho sentito gridar "Libertà!", Ma ognuno rincorre la sua, Il dono di far quel che ti par, Di puntar senza senso la prua. Nessuno capisce perché, Ma legati siamo nel tempo, Far finta di niente, è sciocco in sè, Da un tuo gesto ne nascono cento. La vecchia signora, passa solo una volta, Nessuna riprova, nessuna che ascolta, Quel che volevo dir io ve l'ho detto! Quel che volevo dir io ve l'ho detto! La strada prosegue e va via, E porta con se la memoria, L'incognito è una bugia, Perché parte fai della storia. Ricordi l'ebbrezza del salto, Il rischio, la noia, la fame di far? In cerchio si muove it tuo passo, Sul sicuro non puoi che tornar. Nell'ombra dimora l'antica vergogna, Di chi vuol parola ma infin non ascolta, Vecchio e decrepito rimango e sono, Ma porta rispetto o ti bastono! La vecchia signora, passa solo una volta, Nessuna riprova, nessuna che ascolta, Restate seduti che io non v'aspetto! Quel che volevo dir io ve l'ho detto!
