Where, have true ideals gone ?
What true and lasting things, can we create ?
Chasing the shadow of nothing blaming,
but i don't look back!
Listen silently,
act and criticise,
now, the time you went on is gone!
Where, have true ideals gone ?
What true and lasting things, can we create ?
Chasing the shadow of nothing blaming,
but i don't look back!
...Talking and talking and talking...
Earlier there, were mind and heart,
and you acted with all your sweat!
Now there are, fingers and tongue,
and you acted just with ignorance...ignorance!
The future attract and drugs,
and you pushed to act but not to strike,
always protected by your shild made of glass...
...hold fucking on!

Over The Reef

Another cold winter,
full of doubts and empty moments
...that's the time, looking outside, outside the window...
proud of my silence,
so scared of my emptiness.
No more time to speak,
no more ear ready for me!
I feel like to go over,
over the reef of this island,
over every wall and every room,
go over and over and over...
Keeping my breath,
i feel like to explode,
forgot the best of me
...that's the time, looking outside, outside the window...
proud of my silence,
so scared of my emptiness.
Black afternoon,
and strong and fucking sun outside of me!
I feel like to go over,
over the reef of this island,
over every wall and every room,
go over and over and over...
Finish what you've started,
i always repeat it to myself,
everything has become hard to bear
...that's the time, looking outside, outside the window...

Do or Die or...

No regret today,
no justice, no excuse this time,
i rise and i ride,
i scream and i don't wanna wait!
Do Or Die Or,
what you think i've to do?
Do Or Die Or,
what you think i've to be...this time?
A light so far away...
...and i grab my new chance,
i hate, and i pass away inside.
Reduction of everything else,
and all we know, there's no way out to save ourself,
wondering and waiting,
maybe is better to feel hate, keeping hard the best of us!
Do Or Die Or,
what you think i've to do?
Do Or Die Or,
what you think i've to be...this time?
