In My Bones
03:09
|

I’m feeling good, I want to stay
In this mood, in this state
I try to look up every day
Living in the good way
The pleasures here, the power is
In my bones
Go crazy, go hurry, carry on
It will stay forever
In my bones
One day my mother told to me
Be honest it’s free
I raised with some words like these
So it’s carved in me
The pleasures here, the power is
In my bones
Go crazy, go hurry, carry on
It will stay forever
In my bones

Young Poor Boy
03:58
|
|||
He was a young poor boy
Walkin’ all alone
The word he most heard was “lose”
How could it be good ?
He had no mother
He had no father too
The only things he knew
Were violence and booze
He was dreaming
He was waiting for a better life
He was hoping somebody would look at him
He was dreaming
He was waiting
But he’d never seen a hand
To help him to become a man
Not a young poor boy
He had no friend at all
Just a poor blind cat
Who helped him when he was crying
He was the only thing he loved
Then he found a gun
And some bullets in a box
Now, nobody in the street
Will ignore him again
He was dreaming
He was waiting for a better life
He was hoping somebody would look at him
He was dreaming
He was waiting
But he’d never seen a hand
To help him to become a man
Not a young poor boy

Do you think all people are bad ?
Do you think some deserve to die ?
Do you want a best future for you child ?
Or let them fall without a try ?
Do you want to make it better ?
Don’t you think that’s what everybody does ?
Open your eyes and go faster
No one will do it for you
Because you’ve never seen an angel
You think the time is wasted
Because you’ve never seen an angel
You never try to dream
Because you’ve never seen an angel
You think everything is going bad
Because you’ve never seen an angel
You don’t believe in mine
Do you earn your happiness for free ?
Do you climb the mountains alone ?
Don’t you listen to your friends
When they tell you the day you were born ?
Do you think each day is easy
When they hurt you at every moment ?
Do you think it’s a reason to give up ?
And let the demons kill you slowly ?
Because you’ve never seen an angel
You think the time is wasted
Because you’ve never seen an angel
You never try to dream
Because you’ve never seen an angel
You think everything is going bad
Because you’ve never seen an angel
You don’t believe in mine
I hope one day you’ll realise
That nothing comes alone
And the devils who watch your back
Will haunt you until dawn
I hope one day you will get up
And let these devils down
You’ve never seen an angel
But you are freedom bound
Because you’ve never seen an angel
You think the time is wasted
Because you’ve never seen an angel
You never try to dream
Because you’ve never seen an angel
You think everything is going bad
Because you’ve never seen an angel
You don’t believe in mine

Until Death
06:23
|
|||
As long as I can, I’ll be here
Like you were here for me
I know it was not too easy
But I think we can always be free
You taught me all what I know
And I know that’s thanks to you that I could grow
Every time I think about you
I can’t catch all the tears flow
All the flowers, all the roses, all the pain
That I could see on your grave
Seem to be like a love that I have to expand
Until death, until death…
I promise that I’ll never give up
And I’ll think to your strength to cheer me up
I’ll tell to my son to fight
Cause the future has to be bright
Like you, I don’t trust anyone
I try to keep time to be alone
Alone to think about all of this
Until time says to me that I’m out
All the flowers, all the roses, all the pain
That I could see on your grave
Seem to be like a love that I have to expand
Until death, until death…
As long as I can, I’ll be here
Like you were here for me
I know it was not so easy
But I think we can always be free
You taught me all what I know
And I know that’s thanks to you that I could grow
Every time I think about you
I can’t catch all the tears flow
All the flowers, all the roses, all the pain
That I could see on your grave
Seem to be like a love that I have to expand
Until death, until death…

If you’re lost, if you’re scared
If you can’t prepare
I will never let you down
If my head says to me
That I have to be ready
I will never let you down
All my life you helped me to be a grown man
All my life, you never left me
I know you can’t say it but you need me
I will never let you down
Don’t be afraid, life is rude
You don’t have to be confused
I will never let you down
Don’t be sick, forget it
Many men are just pricks
I will never let you down
All my life you helped me to be a grown man
All my life, you never left me
I know you can’t say it but you need me
I will never let you down
Put that gun on the ground
You don’t want to be that man
I will never let you down
Give me this, this is the end
I’m already condemned
I will never let you down

Sickness
03:12
|
|||
The sickness of a life, when nothing is for you
The devils inside, no any place for you
A story of a life, where happiness is not true
The sirens call you, lord, the abyss waits for you
You feel so alone, no one listen to you
Your heart beats so hard, taking each part of you
The more you think about it, the less you feel ok
But you’re in good health, your brain makes a fool of you every day
So tell me know, how do you feel tonight
Blow away, let your soul fly
Look at your window, observe these children
Remember the innocence when you were playing with your friends
You can not complain, so many people are hurt
By the sickness of a life, you have never suffered
Now take a good look, run and never stop
Listen to what your mum says but please again shut up
How can you be a so selfish man with your perfect life
You’ve got everything that everybody wants
So play again, waiting the end
So tell me know, how do you feel tonight
Blow away, let your soul fly

Cries
04:18
|
|||
The sky is turning blue
Birds are flying through it
The sun shines on the old city
In a quiet street again
It makes me remain
The joy of being a child is getting to its end
Hope of a family
Cries of a friend
Losing a life again X2
The silence ruins his mind
He’s crying hot tears
He feels like a wanted guy
Tryin’ to forget the darkness
Seeing the emptiness
It will never stop, I guess…
Hope of a family
Cries of a friend
Losing a life again

It's Such A Mess
02:05
|
|||
You gotta go home
But you know you’ll be sad
Your family is gone
Last night was not so bad
You think you’ll be alone
But what a big mistake
Nobody says welcome
Then take a little break
Cause it’s such a mess
You take a deep breath
When you see the living room
Don’t be so depressed
You’ll talk with her soon
Don’t try to digress
That’s what you said to her
You have to be kind I guess
Cause it will hurt
Yeah, it’s such a mess
You finally find some common ground
She stops to cry
She knows you’re family bound
She promises you
That she will change
You know she’s a fool for you
And you can’t live without her
But it’s such a mess

All Alone
01:57
|
|||
I count the days
Looking through the window
Drawing a way
Just like an arrow
I wait all night
News on the tv
It’s full of vices
Same shit on the radio
I spend my time doing nothing
I spend my time all alone
I put on my shoes
To take a ride
Going down to the dark room
With so much pride
I open the back door
And I take my old jacket
I take off the backseat
There is no one to take
I spend my time doing sad things
I spend my time all alone
I start the engine
Of my holy bike
I listen to the good vibes
Of my loud pipes
I forgot the helmet
As always…
I just take sunglasses
To hide my ugly face
I spend my time riding and riding
But I do it all alone, all alone…

I Tried
04:13
|
|||
As a kid I followed you
I was dreaming about you
For the time we’ve never lived before
All the time, all the days
I spent with a phone in my hand
It was just to be close to you
You were for me an idol
I did everything in order
To be the same guy as you
Everybody advised me
Don’t be a fool, stay away
At least don’t expect anything from him
But I fell in the trap
I listened to my mind
And I didn’t realise that I was digging the gap
I did everything like you
Every thought was to going through
The same life you lived since you were born
Soon I saw your weaknesses
Indifference and selfishness
It is the real side of your soul
I spent years awaiting
You’d realise all your sins
Even if I knew that will be tough
I made efforts everyday
I tried to raise you on my way
I was sure, certain you could change
But the tears of a mother
A brother or a sister
That not worth to worry about you
According to your claims
It’s not your fault, we can’t blame
But stop, I can’t feel sorry anymore
You never learn of your errors
You do the same stupid things
Every fucking day of your life
I tried to be there
I tried to convince
But now, I can’t do this anymore
I’m sad of thinking about you
You know you’ll finish alone
Cause you hurt everywhere you go
I tried to forget
I tried to love you
I tried, I tried, I tried
