CRY BABY CRY
You cry like a child
Like a wolf in the night
Because your life without chains
Is your fear of being free
It is the chains of life
That make the world go around
Sometimes in directions
Far away from the sun
Cry baby cry
For a place in time
Cry baby cry
For the love you have lost
It is the chains of life
That make the black and white
Wrapped in the darkness
Tight in your hands
Cry for yourself cry and smile truly
And your life without chains
Will be everything that comes
Cry baby cry
For a place in time
Cry baby cry
For the love you have lost

INDIAN PATH
Well, I was walking alone
Along the streets of hope
I knew nothing about these lands
And I believed that I felt well
For miles and miles
I followed this wind
Running, walking, running, walking, yeah!
Just along the endless plains of hope
Stones, mountain's range
This was my dream
I had no bags but a lot of trust
I left all my goods to find freedom
Just searching Indian paths
For miles and miles
I followed this wind
Running, walking, running, walking yeah
Just along the endless plains of hope
But while I came to the end of these lanes
All my wishes became only fear
So, I walked back home
But I discovered there was no hope
For miles and miles
I followed this wind
Running, walking, running, walking yeah
Just along the endless plains of hope

THIS WAY
I want to go out tonight
Climbing the walls around me
To wash my eyes from normality
And to see everything clearer
From my mental sky
Comes this acid rain
And as a wandering bullet
Deep inside it shocks my brain
And the reason "goes"
Down in my desert veins
I want to see crystal bulbs
Beyond these fatal towns
And the reason "goes"
All the days we work
All the nights we sleep
And this sense of sadness
Is it the sense to be alive?

WHILE THIS SOUND SPINS ME AROUND
Baby
Don’t close your eyes
Tonight there is a light
From far away
Beyond the hills
Is coming back
An old strange sound
While this sound
Spins me around
In my dreams
Don’t give me truce
Baby
Runaway
To the other side of the day
There is a path
There is a sign
A flower's image
In your gaze
While this sound
Spins me around
In my dreams
Don’t give me truce
Baby
Tell me why
We are crossing this little storm
You look around
This is your world
One ribbon gleam
In the secret rain

THE FLAMES OF PAIN
Hear me God in this secret prayer
Hear me God while I bum in the fire
I cannot change my name and my soul now
The future is the past that lives in destiny
Hear me God
Hear me God in this cry of violence
Hear me God while I pay the price of my life
I cannot see these faces in the flames of pain
I don't want to feel these terrifying screams
Hear me God
Hear me God in the starless night
Hear me God as only my mother would do
I cannot wait for the light of day now
The heat of the sun would melt my heart of ice
Hear me God
Hear me God wherever you may be
Hear me God while I try to reach you
You cannot show me something of yourself now
But I know I will find you deep inside me

The Words I Never Said

THE WORDS I NEVER SAID
You fill my heart
With a whole lotta words
I need your love
Yesterday
You said at the phone
You’ll be back home
I'm driving off through the desert town
The beams of light keep away the rain
She's coming on the midnight train
The radio's signs seem to show me
The way
I thought you were mine
A thing to own
But you went away
And now I learnt it
And I wish you beside me
Please, give me your hand
I'm driving off, through the desert town
The beams of light, keep away the rain
She's coming on the midnight train
The radio's signs seem to show me
The way
It's trying
To be so alone
To think about my life
Inwardly your world
Searching to understand
The things that I did wrong
And the words
I never said

OPEN THE WINDOW
Open the window
And look down in the street
Open the window
Can't you hear this shout
Open the window
And dry your veil of tears
Can you see me now
Can you hear me now
Can you touch me now
I need you
You know that
I need you
On my long road
In this dark shadowy town
Of boxed-up thoughts
Can you see me now
Can you hear me now
Can you touch me now
I need you
You know that
I need you
On my long road
In this dark shadowy town
Of boxed up thoughts
Open the window
Make your mind free now
Take my hand and come with me
Come with me
Now!

BLACK FLOWERS
Black roses
Black flowers
In my mind
On my body
Imprisoned thoughts
Of one glimmering cloud
Blue grey
Smoky black
A puff of smoke
From a trench
Reflection in the mirror
My weak existence

Love Don't Leave Me Now

LOVE DON'T LEAVE ME NOW
One day I met
A girl of country
A country girl
She walked to me
In her face a timid air
What's your name I said?
From that place you come from?
You are flesh and bone
She smiled and then blushed
I loved her
Beside the fire
She was so white
She was so frighten
Love
Don't leave me now
The days pass
And with time change the things
She lost in the hasty rage
I lost in the memories maze
I loved her
Beside the fire
She was so white
She was so frighten
Love
Don't leave me now

Tomorrow
I will find the force to change
And all these clouds into my head
Will be tears of hope
On my long way
Tomorrow
I will find a way to go
She knows
Tomorrow
I will know if that I say is true
When tomorrow comes
I will know the truth
But now I'm here in this sad story
Prisoner of her heat
Enchained in her white jail
She Knows

IT'S YOUR TIME
It's your time...
Listen to the breeze
That drags you outside
It’s your time
Free your face
From that useless mask
It's your time...
Paint of beauty
Your normal life
Escaping away
From the shelter
Of your control mind
It's your time
It's your time
I know to change
Will be much harder now
It's your time
Turn back the shoulders
At the past
It's your time
Your blood is warm
Red lights are off
And nothing else
In your thoughts
Only this song
It's your time
