Tracklist, credits & lyrics

Today I feel like ice ashes
The final word has been spoken
I am wide awake in flashes
Aching bones, suddenly broken

More alone than the most distant
Particles of the universe
Like my imaginary friend
Who repeats the same verse again

Born under the cursed stars chaplet
Far away from any event
Far away from what you may get

Nothing to say, nothing to play
You try to help only you don’t
On distant tones I’m made of stone
Nobody else could carry on

The void burns me from the inside
In a blister I smell the heat
This lonely dance is doomed to die
Over an echoed tragedy

Born under the cursed stars chaplet
Far away from any event
Far away from what you may get

On my seat with my cigarette
I see empty cups on the desk
I receive a glass of whisky
From the lady that isn’t there

I stand up on my skinny legs
Starting to stutter and to beg
I throw my arms up in the air
And grab everything but despair

People might object
Angels are free to have sex
And I’m the only God on earth
The only God on earth

Where’s mercy when duty calls me
I’m a sinner who likes to sin
What could I expect in future
If all the sins might not exist

I sit one more time on my seat
I ask for another whisky
Ask again for a song to hear
As I’m the God of everything

People might object
Angels are free to have sex
And I’m the only God on earth
The only God on earth

People might object
Angels are free to have sex
And I’m the only God on earth
The only God on earth

People might object
Angels are free to have sex
And I’m the only God on earth
The only God on earth

People might object
Angels are free to have sex
And I’m the only God on earth
The only God on earth

People I found on the side of the road
Gave me some clues that I hardly knew
Some thoughts echo where I hide, alone in the night
Deep in my mind time’s passing by
Paperwork at my knees
Voices in my ears

I feel like a stone rolling uphill
In the cover of Vogue magazine
Crossing the doors to a new world

I got the urge to go on the show
The urge to stand and to glow
Confident smile to go along with my tie
A steady gait and a glaring eye
Eyes in the sky, thoughts aside
Settled for the night

I feel like a stone rolling uphill
In the cover of Vogue magazine
Pulling up the strength of a new world

New world

Singing for the poor and the rich
Dressed up for midnight but got sick
Same stories, these thoughts of mine wondering how it feels
To waver under the spotlights, sitting at your feet

Shine ! Bury your old ways in the ground
Or kick them hard off of the streets and off maps and roads
Shine ! Bring your words in a screaming sound
Gather up your gowns and clowns and embrace what’s around

Cold lifeless trees, hard empty streets
Life in cities
Life seems on scene, eyes on concrete dreams
Dreams with new surroundings yet unseen
Few pleasant words of joy in my ears
Chaos and talk slowly cease
Floating down underground, footsteps drown without sound
Echoes of the sun
Streaming past looking eyes, wondering what’s behind

Ahhh Pulling up the strength of a new world

Ohhh I’ve been walking alone for so long
New world, new world
New world, new world
Shine your eyes on me
Shine on

Ohhh Don’t forget the hat
Drive me to America
Portugal and Spain
Canada and Berlin
Shine your eyes on me

In the darkest air
In the spiral stairs
Could it be
So long this way

In a blackish doom
In a vanish room
Could you be
Yourself this way

During the brightest days
He writes and plays
At the Russian roulette
With a spacious feel
Against the threat

In a madcap run
Where all has begun
He sees himself
Out of the way

Set to go ahead
Gun pointed at the head
Up to tell a story
Without failure nor glory

In a madcap laugh
A lot of red drops
Could it be
A different way

During the brightest days
He writes and plays
At the Russian roulette
With a spacious feel
Against the threat

On the blackened page
Elsewhere in his head
The director of speech
Drew the history

On the blackened page
Elsewhere in his head
The director of speech
Drew the history

Moving forward, screaming through sighs
Moving backward, touching the sky
Hand on the wheel, hearing an echo
All thoughts increase all sounds narrow

I’m passing through the tunnel
To be the one to glance straight at the sun so bright
I’m passing through the tunnel, now
To be the one to glance straight at the sun so bright, so bright

I’m wearing steel
No waiting for exit, no need to follow
I’m wearing steel
No waiting tonight, no need to follow
I’m my own hero

And now I’m off for better days
The end of winter days

Taking a stand, no more escape
No more control, I got a way
No more control, I got a way

I’m passing through the tunnel, now
To be the one to glance straight at the sun so bright, so bright

I’m wearing steel
No waiting for exit, no need to follow
I’m wearing steel
No waiting tonight, no need to follow
I’m wearing steel
No waiting tonight, no need to follow
I’m my own hero
I’m wearing steel
I’m my own hero
You are your own hero, your own hero

You can’t understand
When we hold hands
The way I feel
Feeling like life’s at ease

The time passes by
But she only needs one blink
To touch the sky
And the moonlit streams

Don’t ask me why she’s mine
Bring me closer all along the night
Appetite howls at all hours
Love is all, love is ours

You can’t understand
When we hold hands
Day after day
When everything’s at stake

The girl I prefer
Wears all the colors in her hair
She’s still yet stirs
Stronger and closer

Don’t ask me why she’s mine
Bring me closer all along the night
Appetite howls at all hours
Love is all, love is ours

You can’t understand
When we hold hands
Love is the key
That makes hearts healthy

Higher and higher
Love is a sacred mountain
Go step by step
To the divine lane

Don’t ask me why she’s mine
Bring me closer all along the night
Appetite howls at all hours
Love is all, love is ours

Touch the sky
Touch the sky
Touch me now
Touch me now

Bring me closer all along the night
Love is all, love is ours

Don’t ask me why she’s mine
Bring me closer all along the night
Appetite howls at all hours
Love is all, love is ours

Here the flowers grow and glow
Down the stairs, another world
Carried by one single show
Watered with speed and control

Here the flowers grow and glow
When timely rain falls alone
Get inside so it may show
All drops that come and behold

Here the flowers grow and glow
Twenty smells in splendid row
Here the flowers spark, it flows
Dizziness and vertigo

Here the flowers grow and glow
They’re pulled down by the same joke
While wind comes to pull them slow
The Man at the top says hello

Here the flowers grow and glow
Roots come down as rise the dawn
Petals put themselves on a show
Feels like they’ve never been gone

Here the flowers grow and glow
Twenty smells in splendid row
Here the flowers spark, it flows
Dizziness and vertigo

Here the flowers grow and glow
Twenty smells in splendid row
Here the flowers spark, it flows
Dizziness and vertigo

With a perfect shape
On the perfect night
I could dance, I could cry, I could try, I could spy
I could glance, I could change, I could paint, I could say

Who’s the man astray
Why the clouds are grey
How I feel today
How I feel today

I could take a train
Leave it all behind
Then get on a plane
To a hidden place

I could join your place
Love without a chain
Reach you on the way
Leave it all in place

I could take a stand
I could be insane
I could be a Saint
I could be away

With a perfect shape
On a perfect night
I could dance, I could cry, I could try, I could spy
I could glance, I could change, I could paint, I could stray

I could be a thief
I could break a safe
Leave without answer
Run for nights and days

I could be a star
I could have wishes
I could be so far
Deep into riches

I could be a wave
Lost in my excess
I could be a slave
Stuck inside that mess

I could be a boat
Drawn into the sea
I could be a shot
Hurting everyone

With a perfect shape, on a perfect night
Yes I could escape
And kiss the light
I could dance, I could cry, I could try, I could spy
I could glance, I could change, I could paint, I could sway
I could dance, I could cry, I could try, I could spy
I could glance, I could change, I could paint, I could sway away

White is black
How to stack
Matches move
Folks are cool

Music rings
Full of strings
Hear it play
Glassy days

Disorder
Reorder
Emotions
Full motion

In a loop
Flowers bloom
Behind you
No ships gloom

Personnel, I might need your help
One way is gold, one way is sold
One is false, one is told
The bed is made the table’s dressed
I don’t need anybody’s guess

Can you see
Mystery
How to track
Overlap

The phone cracks
Claps are back
Inside tracks
All is back

Ambition
Deception
Amusement
Wind movement

Curtain call
Eyes and all
In suspense
Now and when

Personnel, I might need your help
One way is gold, one way is sold
One is false, one is told
The bed is made the table’s dressed
I don’t need anybody’s guess

The words flow
Come and go
No daytime
Redesign

Take some wine
Bright and shine
Stars aligned
Most divine

Sensations
Horizon
Perception
Next station

One second
One diamond
Reveries
The lost keys

Personnel, I might need your help
One way is gold, one way is sold
One is false, one is told
The bed is made the table’s dressed
I don’t need anybody’s guess

Personnel, I might need your help
One way is gold, one way is sold
One is false, one is told
The bed is made the table’s dressed
I don’t need anybody’s guess

It’s a simple thought in the air
To the girl that goes anywhere
The wind blows in the city square
Meddling petals through her hair

If time missed a chance to go
Should she also be late or flow
Her friend advised to keep it low
But the wind just cannot blow slow

She keeps asking the wheres and whys
Horizon and colors of time, yeah, yeah
Ordeal, pipe dream, crippled and light
So many things darken her mind, yeah, yeah

Crippled and light

But who cares what we can’t define
The path we take, the way she tries
Hurried time through the magic sign
Hanging here in the magic sky

Now she walks toward what had said no
With the thinking that says go
And her dreams line up in a row
While she goes to bed far below

She keeps asking the wheres and whys
Horizon and colors of time, yeah, yeah
Ordeal, pipe dream, crippled and light
So many things darken her mind, yeah, yeah

Crippled and light

But the wind just cannot blow slow

She keeps asking the wheres and whys
Horizon and colors of time, yeah, yeah
Ordeal, pipe dream, crippled and light
So many things darken her mind, yeah, yeah

Crippled and light

The man far away on his moving star
Under the world’s weight, asks where mirrors are
Solitude had gone, solitude is back
Emotions move on and his mind gets black

The morning star lost its charm
His sad heart, alone, is harmed
Hard thinking and empty flasks
A voice talks before he asks
How the tears feel so alone
Sadly laid on giant stones

In this distant world, no one to listen
Here he lost it all as his eyes glistened
There’s nowhere to go, nothing but a laugh
Is it death or dreams or maybe it’s both

The morning star lost its charm
His sad heart, alone, is harmed
Hard thinking and empty flask
A voice talks before he asks
How the tears feel so alone
Sadly laid on giant stones

There’s always something
That comes from a call without caller
No air, no questions, no answer
Only the blue oil colors
There’s always something
Something calling to the inside
No air, no questions, no answer
Only the blue oil colors

There’s always something
That comes from a call without caller
No air, no questions, no answer
Only the blue oil colors
There’s always something
Something calling to the inside
No air, no questions, no answer
Only the blue oil colors

There’s always something
That comes from a call without caller
No air, no questions, no answer
Only the blue oil colors
There’s always something
Something calling to the inside
No air, no questions, no answer
Only the blue oil colors
