Prelude
It can happen to everyone, maybe you or me and us
It really is an unexpected feeling that you can’t trust
You begin to feel worried, alone and attracted to the ground
Hoping that if you pass out you will be found
Sallow stained skin
Yellow is my sin
Paranoia in my entire body
Oedema makes my fingers chubby
Some jelly-like swellings between my mucus and my skin
An increasing inflammation of my eyelid
Now it’s time for the decadence to begin
It’s already happened, I’m kind of invalid
Now I feel my turn has come, my head is lashed

Losing Control

Losing control
What have I done?
It fossilized my brain.
Where should I go? Cause I am lost
What should I do other than crawl in the dust?
Dropsy of my cellular tissue, spongy and far became my issue
I’m losing control worse than if I were stoned
My eyes can see a hole that I will fill up on my own.
I’m losing control
Beginning to fall apart
Now I see the hole
It stands beside me
Just behind these walls
Losing control
Beginning to fall apart
Now I feel the sickness
I’m overwhelmed by something inside
In a box
Under watchful eyes
I think a lot
And I wonder why
Something tries to take over me
A voice inside is beginning to groan
Stay away from me
Stay away from myself
Stay away from me
Stay away from myself
Try to resist
No I cannot resist any longer
Try to subsist
I can try to subsist longer
While I…

Something possesses me
09:32

Something possesses me
Something is in my mind
Something that is not mine
Something makes me blind
Something I can’t define
Something that’s hard to tell
Something I cannot spell
Help me and
Read, read in me
Don’t be afraid to try
Sleep, sleep with me
Don’t be afraid to fly
Talk, talk to me
Don’t be afraid to cry
Stay, stay with me
Don’t be afraid to be happy

Interlude (The Link)
Now I have this new friend
He looks just like me, ten minutes ago.
Where am I? Who is he?
Where am I? And who is he?
It’s as if we’ve died together
Alone, together,
It’s hard to explain…together
Alone, together…
On his ship he swears he’ll bring me back
Then we will live together as one just as before
But I feel a change is coming
I really want more
Something is still missing
I cannot solve the puzzle yet because there is a missing piece in the puzzle of my life
It’s as if we’ve died together
Alone, together,
It’s hard to explain…together
Alone, together…

Both of me

Inbë I - Both of me
I reach the sky, too many angels
Walk on earth, too many people
I come down in hell, quiet and warm, well
This place is perfect
This place is perfect
For you and I
Jumping on burnings rocks (surrounded by flaming lakes)
But there’s a gap between us
And I don’t need fake friends
Fake smiles, fake happiness
Or some fleeting joy
That I now have with you
Sometimes I sit, staring into the void
Just let me drown, instead of taking me back to the shore
Running out of time, weak as a broken violin string
I’m a red curtain and I will remain closed
A friend’s story that seems frozen
Silence is what we had before
True words unspoken
Heard miles away from the shore
I used to walk round and round
Before you showed the way out, the underground
Security, for you and me
Life will never be what I’d expected it to be
But don’t worry, I’ll miss your cruelty
I will suffer from your distant eyes
I finally found out, that you are not the one
I was aboard the wrong boat
I should have searched from coast to coast
I wasted my time counting your black waves
A life-vest made out of stones
What a fish I used to be, alone with myself

Inbë II - The drowning crank
Becoming invisible, you begin to see me disappear
And under the waves I saw you smile
Too bad for you but I’ve got no fears
In the worst case I will die
I finally found out, that you are not the one
I was aboard the wrong boat
I should have searched from coast to coast
But I wasted my time
You can laugh at me my pretty twin
But you are not yet the winner
You’re in deep shit, my dear brother
Cause you forgot that I know how to swim
After days of floating in my sickness,
No wonder I turned into the one my body now owns
The terrific flood was finally drained from my head
Then I lived a peaceful moment, realizing I wasn’t dead
Erasing myself as I draw my past
To try to better understand what I really am at last
Deleting memories of my previous being
To make sure nobody will ever see this awful drawing
Angels lured me to decay and thought I was blind, but
Evil was the choice of my mind
Humans for their part
Into hypocrites have grown
And I know in my heart
That I should now go on my own
So I was wrong all along because the earth is not that bad
We just need to enjoy the present moment, those we will have and have had…

It Means
04:49

It means
I don’t care, doesn’t mean that I don’t understand and
I’m not fair, doesn’t mean that I cannot give you my hand
You feel bad, doesn’t mean that you should feel ashamed
You scream hard, doesn’t mean that they will do the same
He seems lucky, doesn’t mean that he really had a chance, and if
She seems worried, that doesn’t mean than she couldn’t get into the dance, or jump over the fence
It means everybody is so different, so why try to give just one answer
It means even if we’re all humans there’s a lot of ways and doubt
It means psychologists and doctors lose their time trying to go further
It means it’s up to everyone to find his own way out
We’ve been here for millenniums, that doesn’t mean that we know how to live, if
We shed tears because of what they’ve done, doesn’t mean we will not have love to give
You are very kind to me, doesn’t mean that’s the way I should be
Your mind seems really empty but it doesn’t mean you’ve got room for a part of me
They are in their shells, doesn’t mean they can’t invite someone in
They read more than they spell, doesn’t mean they mean to mean what it means
It means everybody is so different, so why try to give just one answer
It means even if we’re all humans there’s a lot of ways and doubt
It means psychologists and doctors lose their time trying to go further
It means it’s up to everyone to find his own way out
And will life ever be what I was expecting? Yes, cause at least I’m creating it…

Shy and tiny, I’m not alone
Locked twice inside, keeping your fears
Am I again in a dream?
Or will my act now have an impact?
Now I see
We’re all back in the game
Here we are
We’ve both come back
Now I see
We’ve both come back
We’re all back in the game
Now I see
What to do? Should I give him pain?
What to do? Should I make him suffer?
What to do? Should I be insane?
What to do? Refuse his bait
What to do? Maybe unleash the hate?
What to do? Maybe just complain?
What to do? I think I will give him pain
What to do? Unscrew his brain
I woke up, am I wet for real?
Tired, cold and three days without a meal
Watching around to find my way back
I see myself on the ground, bruised but intact
Am I again in a dream?
Or will my act now have an impact?
He stands up to regain my esteem
And tries to convince me by pounding me with facts
You’ve got it all wrong pal
’Cause you don’t have power
But now I realize I’m wrong
With that stupid solution
To make him disappear
Violence is probably a pleasant way of doing it
But I’ve got to purge my frustrations
Because he owns this part of me
Without this evil side, my mind will be released of the plague
You take precautions building a relationship
With someone you see as a friend
In the final concoction you put in
Some trust, connections, and a magical collusion.
Then you need respect, and that’s what create sensations
I don’t have it now, can’t possess it
I don’t have it now, can’t possess it
Now I know
What to do: Release the anger
What to do: Tame the viper
What to do: Learn to overcome the wall
What to do: Just be yourself, stand tall!!
Just be yourself, at all!
Never take anything for granted
Being betrayed once is the same
as always having been cheated
Never take anything for granted
and always go further and further
rather than being constantly brought back to the beginning
What to do?
You and I know it!

Face Reality

Face reality
Face reality everyday again
Being conscious makes it seem harder
But if you’re able to tame the system and then,
Take the good parts of it, a change will probably occur
And stay forever
There were sharks in the sea
They were against my true beliefs
No one ever understands me
Now I must see clear
And get this problem to disappear
Reality’s nothing more than what you see
And what you feel can’t be a conspiracy
My mind must be fed but I’m not going to pray
And I hope my problems will just fade away
Face reality everyday again
Being conscious makes it seem harder
But if you’re able to tame the system and then,
Take the good parts of it, a change will probably occur
And stay forever
But there are some rules in life
I’m the one who tries to keep
Equilibrium and good vibes
A little bit of respect, that’s the highway to happiness
You are gone and here I stay
You showed me the way
You are gone and here I stay
You didn’t tell me how to reach it anyway
You are gone and here I stay
So my problems didn’t go away
You are gone and here I stay
Once again waiting for you to say
Face reality everyday again
Being conscious makes it seem harder
But if you’re able to tame the system and then,
Take the good parts of it, a change will probably occur
And stay forever
So it’s up to me, I must find the answer
Even if in this case I’m always tied to money
Never giving up will help me go further
My wallet is open and my mind is ready
My mind is ready, my mind is ready
I am ready

Hyper1(extended senses)
The extension of my senses
Are my snuffling hands, my listening glance
I smell to taste, the vision of a mouth
I hear to taste, the flavour of all sounds
I smell to taste the vision of a mouth
Now breathe and taste the flavour of a song
Ten fingers to smell, to touch the stench
Eyes to listen and see the silence
A nose to taste and breathe some colors
Ears to touch and listen by an act
Having been in a rush makes me conscious of that
Recovering sensations
Overwhelmed by emotions
See the sun and smile
Smell the smog and cry
Recovering sensations
Overwhelmed by emotions
Flowers make me laugh
Children bring me love
Insignificant things became useful
Forgotten tricks now emerge from the past
Old values destroyed by simplicity
Stop being tired of the rules
Judge referential attitudes of the mass
But never compromise your integrity
Who you are, what you feel
Go far and be real
I see the wind staring at me
Blowing until I disappear
Your visible hacks don’t make you a fool
But give you reason to use new tools
To behave in a way that
Lets yours senses take you away

New wave
I’m imbued
I’m a sponge
Constantly diving
Not already drowned
I’m in me
In being with you
In between, with who?
Try to figure out
Try it figure it out
I’m not depressed
Stop telling me lies about me
I’m conscious now
Maybe more than you are
I’m not depressed
Stop telling me lies about me
My new wave
I taste what I behave
I’m imbued
I’m a sponge
Constantly diving
Not already drowned
I’m in me
In being with you
In between, with who?
In my experiences…before
I’ve been sick, watched, frail, bored
Now that I know how to deal with it
Don’t come and tell me what I’m not
Try to figure out
Try to figure it out
I’m not depressed
Stop telling me lies about me
I’m conscious now
Maybe more than you are
I’m not depressed
Stop telling me lies about me
My new wave
I taste what I behave
Bottle of freedom
Projects in mind
The chance to dive
In my new wave
Imbued
sponge
diving
drowned
me
you
who
out

Leitmotiv
Line up the pieces
Kinds of species
Check up all faces
Warm up the freeze
Check up all pieces
Link up the themes
Line up the pieces
The ones that make up
Your kind of species
Picking up the pieces
Messing up the thesis
What makes you fair?
Construct the puzzle
Drain out the faith
Build up your mind
Unleash the hate
See what you’ll find
Erase your troubles
Line up the pieces
Line up the pieces and see all faces
Line up the pieces
Align them on the crowd
Realize all vices
Of which humanity is proud (bis)
Line up the pieces
The ones that make up
Your kind of species
Picking up the pieces
Messing up the thesis
What makes you fair?
Construct the puzzle
Drain out the faith
Build up your mind
Unleash the hate
See what you’ll find
Erase your troubles
Line up the pieces
Line up the pieces and see all faces
Line up the pieces and target the middle or the left side or the top or wherever else, they are all middles of something, somewhere for someone
Die out, stick to, give in, take off, bring back, work out…
Buy up, dry up, throw up, clear up, stir up
Calm down and fade away…
