Always true

We sing our comeback but we are always been here
You scream the absence, we say opportunity
The flame still burns in our wounded hearts
Could the passion be less alive than this?
We choose not to belong to the overriding worry
We prefer to build up bridges and prefer to move the awareness
Of a place that despite the prevailing disregard
Has always the strength to rise
Open up your eyes, open wide
Hear the voice of sorrow, just believe and make it real
We believe in something through a thousand troubles
Our decision is clear and strong
We choose not to belong to the overriding worry
We prefer to build up bridges and prefer to move the awareness
Of a place that despite the prevailing disregard
Has always the strength to rise again
We never put the heart in questionable choices
We'll never lose the way, we are always true
We keep our pride always true.

Walk the line
02:26

I'm here, just a step over this line
A step outside my own reflections
This direction's what is bringing me far from what I've behind
This is a reason to escape, not a reason to fail
So take a breath, hold it 'til the end of separation
We're holding tight, we truly believe in this fragile glass made of dreams
Inhale, exhale, go!
It's all a failure, still trapped on the other side
The one of sins and desperation
Can't close my eyes, I'll wait it with open arms
Step by step I walk the line
So, take a breath and hold it 'til the end of separation
We're holding tight, we truly believe in this fragile glass made of dreams
Everything I hate is being stuck, can't get myself through
When everything is bringing you to swallow your pride.

Taking a breath and closing the eyes
You can't remember how long have you been trying
Can't speak so well, it's too much inside
Just try to answer if your pride is satisfied
These days we used to learn from
The days we've talked about our lives and thought it'd last forever
We grow with the conviction that we are safe behind this line
But our life is made of beings that we always redefine
Forget about the bullshits and never trust this failure
It will be the only way to make things going better
These days we used to learn from
The days we've talked about our lives and thought it'd last forever
Our days I won't remember.

You'd better know that I'm breathing this air of new awareness with open lungs
But if we stay under the cover of our darkest days
Do we have the chance to feel the meaning of being close to the edge and cross it?
We prefer to be just part of a world that does not represent us
We accept, have convenience
Suffocating feelings, mortifying emotions
Waiting for a beat of glory the heart is already dead
We pray the change but pray to feel alive enough
To justify why we use to stay
Close to our side, we prefer to follow the line
Close to our side, we prefer to live a lie
But do we know for real what is meant to be alive?
Or do we hide ourselves under a mask of a plastic pretence?
What happened to my generation?
The heart is already dead.

The game of life
02:22
|
|

Let the destiny play the cards of your turn
Broken skies, suspended sensations
In a while that seems forever all we have is gone
And when this hurts so much inside, we see there's no return
Searching for the answers, a fire to be our guide
It's hard to put the questions when nothing follows the borderline
Between reason and madness, between courage and lies
We can't never forgive it, we can't ever forget
We do always choices of submission but it might be unfair
Where's the right place we want to reach if we are not able to make a decision between the heart and the head?
Sometimes it's hard to find a solution if we are not ready to play.

The lighthouse keeper
02:28
|
|

Day after day, tired of being part of a world that does not belong to me
I take refuge in myself to escape from the storms of our lives
And I wait for the sea to calm down and accomodate my silence
While my heart carefully listens to the sound of waves
These thoughts are only a drop in the ocean
Between these walls and the light of a lighthouse
And so my love's reflected in unforgettable memories
Of a meaningless life that marked my soul
When you see every side of yourself, you have reached your path
How could we stay so useless? There's to wake up!
There's a pride to keep alive, there's to wake up.
