Another Space 1. I am raising my eyes To the sky, but I’ll never see All the stars in the space That one day they are destined to meet. And their beautiful light, Like a beacon for lost ships, Will be mixed in a fatal dance And those stars are destined to meet. 2. I am raising my eyes To the sky, but I’ll never see All the stars in the space That one day they are destined to meet. And their beautiful light, Like a beacon for lost ships, Will attract them so close And those stars are destined to meet. 3. And they will be absorbed In their final farewell ball, They could even collapse Giving birth to a Black Hole Their attraction is so strong, It’s impossible to resist. Merging in outer space, Those stars were destined to meet.

Dark Places 03:12
Dark Places “A-avoid dark places A-avoid fake faces A-avoid beautiful lies A-avoid weed traces That takes you to the dark cases A-avoid”, my dad advised CH: Through the door, the cellar door I hear some noise That’s where I had left before my Inner voice 2. “A-avoid to be tempted To revenge those who’s repented.” That’s what say my mother’s eyes And all those little pieces That comes through your ears Would you perceive? CH: Through the door, the cellar door I hear some noise That's where I had left before my Inner voice

Voices 04:09
Voices Around 1. When you drive me home By the empty road Down the streets that I have always known I’m Sitting next to you Covered by the dark Once again, our drive will light up a tiny spark CH: And these voices around my head They are getting louder Voices around my head They remind me I like it Voices around my head Louder Voices around my head 2. We are going fast Fastened with seat belts The wind blows in my hair; I’m somewhere else Finally, I see When I close my eyes You and I, we can’t cut off all ties One single time (Getting high) It’s more than this (With every word I hear) I hear the voices around “Put your hand on his knee." One single time (Getting high) I’m more than sure (With every word I hear) It’s even better than a dream And it won’t disappear CH: And these voices around my head They are getting louder Voices around my head They remind me I like it Voices around my head Louder Voices around my head

Here comes the sun 1. Here comes the sun, with the light Drafting meters of life In voids of seclusion Here comes the ray of art, Giving power of life To the seeds for intrusion CH: Green sprouts grow Through cracks in grey stone, Raised with a drop of ray And rain tears Green sprouts grow Through cracks in grey stone, As did your lust for life Through all my years 2. Plants overgrown on blocks, Drain the strength of concrete, Take them into possession People are full of absurd In their paltry attempts To transcend over Nature CH: Roots are going deeper Alive, through the walls, Forests of a creeper Like snakes crawl Green sprouts grow Through cracks in grey stone, Raised with a drop of ray And rain tears Green sprouts grow Through cracks in grey stone, As did your lust for life Through all my years

Chance 05:14
Chance 1. If I only had a chance I won’t lose my sight on it I'd remove your curse from my chest But it Was spreading out too fast If I only had a chance To Feel your presence next to me It’s more than I could give or take, That’s something that I can’t admit. CH: We only have this price to pay, Ice we were on has cracked and split... Every step drives us away And our paths won’t ever meet 2. If I only felt you once With your arms around my waist In this moment I could sense That my life isn’t such a waste CH: We only have this price to pay, Ice we were on has cracked and split... Every step drives us away And our paths won’t ever meet We only have this price to pay, What did we do that was so wrong? Our Fate is not for us to say Sometimes we love, sometimes we don't

Free Fall 04:28
Free Fall 1. We’ve lost all of life sensations, Take me there where I suppose to feel Our targets Come from temptation. I want to break off the imposed seal of fear. PreC: So take me a little bit higher Straight beneath the clouds For my body to feel longer how the wind enshrouds around So take me a little bit higher Straight beneath the clouds For my body to feel longer How tears fly up RE: Don’t ask me why I’m afraid 'Cause I won’t give you the right answer. When you jump out of a plane In free fall there’s no button to cancel 2. While falling The wind is blowing And I feel the hopelessness that calms Bellow myself I see the lives There are other people seeking to fly So take me a little bit higher Straight beneath the clouds For my body to feel longer how the wind enshrouds around So take me a little bit higher Straight beneath the clouds For my body to feel longer How tears fly up RE: Don’t ask me why I’m afraid 'Cause I won’t give you the right answer. When you jump out of a plane In free fall there’s no button to cancel

Nomad 05:12
Nomad 1. Help me if you can I’ve been travelling too long On deserts of sand Take my hand if you can And show me the way, Cause my eyes are blind Let me in if you can Let me lay down in bed, Give some water to drink Where else, which place I would find a shelter? RE: Don’t be afraid of nomad, I won’t hurt you bad, In your place, some people would be glad. Don’t be afraid, my virtue, I won’t steal from you. I’m here for one thing that I owed you. Cause I’m your death Cause I’m your death 2. Tell me all if you can About sorrows in your heart, Things that you regret. Spell things out if you can That you had in life, That you won’t forget. Rest a bit, yes, you can Cause your eyes are tired, As your heart and lungs. Through sands, I came For your last journey. RE: Don’t be afraid of nomad, I won’t hurt you bad, In your place some people would be glad. Don’t be afraid, my virtue, I won’t steal from you. I’m here for one thing that I owed you. Cause I’m your death Cause I’m your death

Velvet Season 1. I already feel it Inside of my head It’s bitter and liquid It came through my vein Touch me I know that you won’t feel The swelling That sucks the life out of me I’m hopeless. As always hide your eyes And tell me What I had to try, all that I have to try 2. I already miss you, Your kiss on my neck We both know it clearly There is no way back On trip, homeward bound There’s only one turn, I’m counting the lessons That I didn’t learn Tell me While the skies are on their knees, For how long You will be without me. But all (of) this I take with love and peace That’s my way That I might have missed, that I’ll surely miss *** (should be there or not??) You ask me if I’m scared, yes I’m scared To close my eyes when I’m in bed. I’ll tell you, honey; there’s always a little reason To extend a bit my Velvet Season.

With You 04:03
With You 1. I begin to write Guided by your hand Sometimes I find rhymes That bore in your head I begin to tell Stories of your past I’ll reveal the tale That will ever last CH (2x): And there with you It’s pleasant to fall down With you I can be weak 2. I’ll recall in rhyme With a few more words Memories of our time Laid down in a row CH (2x): And there with you It’s pleasant to fall down With you I can be weak 3. All that I could write in The Night haze If I follow your gaze It Will be brighter than day I’ll let you be my eyes throughout the dark I’m not wondering why I’m not wondering how

My Shoes 05:10
4. My Shoes 1. There is a time That I want to forget, For the peace of my mind And If I just could I would erase it all, Those horrible things There is a time That I Wanted to keep, But my pockets are full of dust. To Cuddle that thing. And to love as it Heats me Ch Guess, my shoes didn’t fit you, My shoes didn’t fit you As They’re full of broken glass inside Guess, my shoes didn’t fit you, My shoes didn’t fit you Cause my traumas are full of crime. 2. Judgemental fools, And I want to forgive For those eyes full of contempt but What would you do When you need to survive, Without a doubt of how and why? Oh, Yes, you would steal, Or even kill When they come to take the last bit, you’ve got. And If I just could I wouldn`t give it to try, But Hide this pare For no one to know that pain CH And say "my shoes just didn’t fit you, My shoes didn’t fit you. But They’re full of broken glass inside. Guess, my shoes didn’t fit you, My shoes didn’t fit you, Cause my traumas are full of crime
