Lyrics

cammino per strada, la notte nel cuore, la vita ormai è così un lungo cadere, un freddo tramonto, luoghi comuni a morir cerco la luce ma un dubbio mi assale: cosa succede qui? mi sento idiota, mi sento persa, sogno un reality cerco un volto amico: chi mi aiuterà? solitaria e dannata, mi sento sprofondar. “ferma ragazza” mi dice calmo “non piagnucolar io andavo a troie, ma se vuoi una mano basta fare la carità!” indica una chiesa e mi sorride nel suo abito talar “vieni pecorella, fatti aiutare!” ma non riesco a camminar… forse è quella luce strana che brilla fredda nei sui occhi che mi gela cuore e membra e non so più capire se lui è male o bene, ormai! il diavolo è stronzolo già lo si sa ma noi siam confusi noi non capiam perciò alla chiesa proni ci affidiam se scegliere il male non è libertà ma turpe pensiero contro cui lottiam aimè a mani nude, con caparbietà ci serve un gra duce che ci porterà quella pace eterna che tutti aneliam mani possenti e cuore d’acciaio come se fosse jeeg il nostro uomo ha anche una verga come quelle dei film di rocco e nacho, ma c’importa una sega: loro sono empietà ma di don zauker, lode al signore, una malattia facciam don zauker: santo patrono di potte ed epicità don zauker: il fine ed il mezzo uniti con semplicità don zauker: si erge ignorante contro la malvagità don zauker: ed il concistoro presto si svuolterà di inutili parole contro l’azione sua e coso, nostro signore, in zauker trionferà don zauker: santo patrono di potte ed epicità don zauker: si erge ignorante, il diavolo la puppa già don zauker: venga il suo regno, sia fatta la sua volontà don zauker, don zauker, don zauker.

Lyrics

he came out from the woods last night     the man now drinking at the pub     they say he’s my brother who has returned     but that’s not me, that can’t be right     he has the keys to my brother’s house     he’s wearing my brother’s fine blue coat     he told everyone he got lost     lost in the woods like a little mouse. but i left him there in silence     i left him there his face all red     i left him there in the dark     i walked away and didn’t look back.
he looked like him even to his wife     who cried for him well into her nights     he talks the same fooling everyone     but no, not me, i don’t trust my eyes. ‘cause i left him there in silence     deep in the woods his face all red     i left him there like sleeping     his face all red – i simply walked away. oh, how they laughed, they all laughed at me     when i proposed i could hunt the beast     that came from the woods where monsters sleep     to plague our land and to taint our dreams     oh, how they laughed until he stood tall     “i will join my brother if you all allow”     then all the sneers turned into cheers     my brother, the hero, they could really trust him. we entered the woods and there we got lost     we stepped across a stream, the hours passed     then we found a glare, a deep hole in the ground     and the beast jumped out, bloodthirsty, ferocious. i ran and hid to save my life     my brother shot, the beast fell down     once again, he had saved the day     once again, i felt ashamed     and even though he couldn’t tell     deep inside i felt a strange rage. i left the corpse in the hole in the ground     i cleaned his blood off my old clothes     then i left and found my way back     i told them the beast had killed my brother. but he came out from the woods last night     i will be damned, that can’t be right     they say my brother was saved somehow     that’s not true, i can’t believe my eyes     i don’t feel safe when the sun goes down     that man is roaming our streets at night     his face taints my dreams somehow     i must escape or i’ll lose my mind. ’cause i left him there in silence     his bloody dead, his face all red     his lifeless corpse like sleeping     into that hole i left it before i fled     yes, i left him there in silence     laying underground his face all red!     yes, i left him there as i fled     i left him dead     his face was all red!

Lyrics

i went to see the gypsy     when darkness fell outside her tent     i went to see the gypsy     about the troubled nights i had. i gave her my money     every penny i had left     i sat down beside her     my future in her hands. i went to see the gypsy     when candles lit up in her tent     i went to see the gypsy     to tell her of my nightmares. i was weary of my visions     sleeping was a concern     i couldn’t even close my eyes     i thought i was going mad. she took her head looking at my hand     she took her cards and slowly went through them     “my dear young man, you’ve been cursed” she said     “i’m your only hope, trust in me, i’m your friend.” “take off your shoes, take off your clothes     stand on your feet, shake up and dance     lift up your soul with no regrets     live for the day, wake up and sing!” i went to see the gypsy     when darkness fell outside her tent     i went to see the gypsy     about the troubled nights i had. i gave her my money     every penny i had left     i sat down beside her     my future in her hands. i went to see the gypsy     when candles lit up in her tent     i went to see the gypsy     to tell her of my nightmares. i was weary of my visions     sleeping was a concern     i couldn’t even close my eyes     i thought i was going mad. she took her head looking at my hand     she took her cards and slowly went through them     “my dear young man, you’ve been cursed” she said     “i’m your only hope, trust in me, i’m your friend.” “take off your shoes, take off your clothes     stand on your feet, shake up and dance     lift up your soul with no regrets     live for the day, wake up and sing!”

Lyrics

memories forgotten     and the echoes of the changing times     opening like flowers     hidden shapes along my path. the landscape stays the same     with every building i’m passing by     stuck in shapes now lost in time     almost like a game. the weariness of my nerves     the alluring sound of my goodbye     i’m lost in my remembrance     within my dreams and my past. i move across the darkness     my feet they barely touch the ground     i’m the herod of my silence     now i know at last. no clouds on the horizon     so far only peace before my eyes     i must go on and keep on trying     to make some sense of these strange times. clouds and cherry blossoms     the songs of rivers full of life     these memories are fading     they’re left behind where they won’t last. i look beyond today     and i still find traces of my past     i am coming down my mountain     the spring will come at last. no clouds on the horizon     i must leave this desert far behind     i must go on     try to follow the geometries of nature’s mind. no clouds on the horizon     my hope is blooming in my eyes     i’m sure it will all pass     i’m sure one day the rain will come.

Lyrics

Payday is getting close     mr. collect stop chasing me     payday is getting closer     oh, mister, please, stop chasing me     you can take all of my money     if you leave me something to eat. when i was a kid     and thought of the man i’d be     my heart grew bigger and so did my grin     now my life is spent in shame and misery     look now, won’t you let me be?     you can take my house and money     if you promise that i’ll be free. i’m slaving all my life away     and you’re never pleased     you take my dignity away and i’m at your feet     look now mr. debt collector     you are going to kill me     won’t you have a little mercy on me?     you can have everything you want     if you stop playing with me. i called my friends     from all over town     they say i won’t have peace     until you are around     won’t you? won’t you release me?     payday is getting closer and you’ll have the blood you need. payday’s getting closer     mr. collector stop chasing me     payday is getting closer      mister, please, just let me be!     if my life ain’t worth enough     then my soul might satisfy thee.
