HUMIDITY
(T. Carretta)
(When someone really annoyed you to the point of anger)
Humidity: what I feel in my bones
Stupidity: when I thought you‘d grow
Reality: you left me on the floor
My liberty: what I’m looking for
Toxicity: what I don’t need no more
The ability: to tell me I’m always wrong
Your fantasy: I wouldn’t ask for more
The novelty: now I closed the door
Chorus
What if the sky was grey ?
What if came the rain ?
What if the sky was falling ?
Is Humidity comin’?
Humidity: just before the storm
Infinity: the things you’ll never know
The gravity: I lost in this black hole
Some dignity: what I’m looking for
Humanity: is what I hate more
My limit is: to forget the things I’ve learned
The question is: how do we keep control?
The answer is: now I don’t care for sure
Chorus
What if the sky was grey ?
What if came the rain ?
What if the sky was falling ?
Is humidity comin’?
What if the sky was black ?
With all the things unsaid
What if the world was falling ?
Is humidity comin’?
Humidity: just before the rain
Like fog within is darkening all my brain
Your apathy that used to drive me insane
The final is: I’ll never be the same
Chorus
CONCERT
(T. Carretta)
(Concerts are a great ritual, for those who believe in music, full of emotions flowing from the morning till the end and even after. Both for musicians and listeners...)
I’m just awake with this sound in my head, can’t take the wait, can’t stay in bed
I can’t explain what’s in my veins, a rush of blood right to my brain
I can’t stand still with my hands on the wheel, I keep the beat with both my feet
I hold my breath I feel this chill through my spine down to my knees
I raise the volume to feel the kick drum in my chest, bass vibrations hit me now
Chorus
Tonight I need distortion
Tonight I need it loud
Tonight I wanna scream my nightmares out
Tonight I need distortion
Tonight I’m upside down
Tonight I want the crowd to scream out loud
Hecklers, haters please stay away, can’t concentrate with this sound in the air
I accelerate I can’t be late I feel so blessed when I see the stage
It’s all about my passion, my soul and my devotion , I would share these feelings now
Chorus
Tonight I need distortion
Tonight I need it loud
Tonight I wanna scream my questions out
Tonight I need distortion
Tonight I won’t get down
Tonight I will jump till I reach the clouds
Now I lose myself as the lights go out, music starts, I feel a shiver and I shed a tear
I wish I never lose the ability to feel, I look up to the sky to see my angels
A physical emotion, a flight over the ocean, my chemical addiction to the sound
Chorus
Tonight I need distortion
Tonight I need it loud
Tonight I wanna scream my nightmares out
Tonight I need distortion
Tonight I’m upside down
Tonight I want the crowd to scream out loud
FRAGMENTS
(T. Carretta)
(The endless struggle against time, and the perception of its increasing speed as we get older)
Time You know you lost control over your
Time And how it goes faster
Growin’ up you wonder more and more why your perception of the time can change so much
as years go by
Memories of the past years
(Days were full and seemed to last forever, now we have no time for anything)
Who are we to have them back?
Chorus
We all live fragments, we can’t recall our days
We all drift restless, till we collide again
We all share madness, we think it’s worth the game
We all end breathless, (we) run just the same
Mind You know you lost control over your
Mind Too many things to manage
Always caught in traffic you can’t take the right direction, you forgot completely what
you’ve seen for miles
Why can’t we care for brothers
(We think that watching our best friend’s profile’s enough to keep in touch and share our lives)
As we did in the past?
Chorus
How can we stand this pressure?
(Try to take your time, reset your mind, the most important things we just can’t buy)
Why can’t we slow time down?
Chorus
SELL YOUR SOUL TO GOD
(D. Vassallo)
(hey....Master!who do you think you are ? ...dedicated to bullies, bossies..all the people who plays with other's lives)
You’re the Master, we’re the slaves
Made a pact with evil, thought you would be saved
Don’t believe that you’re so right
Living life among the ruins of your lost might
Ran away from troubles
Thought your sins were nothing
You command and tread on all
Throwing punches while pretending be adored
Learn the meaning of respect
Maybe God’ll forgive you if you end your game
There’s a thing that you forget
Devil wants your life so
Don’t believe you will get through!!!!
Chorus
You’d better sell your soul to God
Before the Devil comes
You’d better sell your soul to God
Before that is too late
And the world now sees your greed
Feeding people’s fear, stealing all their needs
No more happiness, no sun
But you’ve never found that love’s our shootin’ gun!
There’s a thing that you forget
Devil wants your life so
Don’t believe you will get through!!!!
Chorus
There’s a thing that you forget
Love is all we need to break free from the hell you put us through!
Chorus
LIFE EXPLOSION
(T. Carretta)
(About the miracle of birth)
Once I felt so safe, now there’s something strange
I used to float in this sweet calm lake
Dreaming of the times I had only peace
I felt your touch like a soft warm wave
Then I hear your voice around me and I start feeling great, again
But I know that something strong is coming
Chorus
It’s a life explosion, like a scream like an ocean wave
It’s a life explosion, like a storm like an earthquake shake
It’s a strong emotion to face
Sometimes I’m excited for this new life coming, sometimes I am afraid
And there’s nothing I can do to stop this fall into life, Im twisting just to escape
And I’m feeling strange, I realize something’s gonna change, again
But I know that something strong is coming
Chorus
It’s a life explosion, like a scream like an ocean wave
It’s a life explosion, like a storm like an earthquake shake
Like the strength of waves
Like the storm will break
Like the wind will take me away
And then: the sun
GREY DUST
(T. Carretta)
(Inspired by the incredible story of young Bana Alabed, who lived in Aleppo during war and posted daily horrors of war)
My father told me who’s the enemy
But I don’t know what to believe
This war is killing all my dreams
Trying to live just like a child
But I see people dying like flies
Running to find somewhere to hide
My mother took me out of school
Said the teacher was a fool
Gave me this tool to speak to you
So I shared pictures of this shame
The things I’ve seen (are) too hard to explain
There’s too much violence too much pain
Chorus
The sun, the clouds, the skies are grey
Even all the shadows
The nights, the days, the lights are grey
Someone stole the colours from my sight
My house, the stores, the walls are grey
Everything is rubble
My face, my eyes, my hands are grey
Everything is covered by grey dust
My brothers cry to be embraced
The holy books are violated
The bombs are like the falling rain
There is no silence there’s no sleep
The only thing that I can hear
Is heavy shelling over me
It’s hard to tell you what’s the truth
So many friends killed in the school
I want to know who stole my youth
Can’t say if I will post again
Tomorrow we may all be dead
We can’t go out we can’t escape
Chorus
Please help me if you can hear me please set me free
If you can read me remember me
We all need peace
This can’t be real
Chorus
HERE I STAND
(D. Vassallo, T. Carretta)
(..living with a permanent chronic disease,being disable... ain't always easy...but you gotta fight,never surrender)
So many times your body didn't want to obey your frightened brain
Many times the strength seemed to have gone away, it's a struggle against you
It's a battle within let your force do its best, it's your “multiple” fight to live
Gotta take control you're the only one who understands his own body and soul
Step by step corrosion and the pain (have you) got anyone to pray?
Step by step depression rising flame
Not even your Saints!
Chorus
There’s a riot against me, takin’ my body control
Here I stand
It's war inside me
When will I ever live again?
Take back your life from the monster inside, he's trying to eat your awareness
React, think to be free doesn't matter you're sick, pain is only a state of mind
Rebuild your life brick by brick, build a stronghold of peacefulness
It's a matter of win, never lose this game, the real issue is life, no shame!
Step by step corrosion and the pain, (have you) got anyone to pray?
Step by step depression rising flame
Not even your Saints!
Chorus
There’s a riot against me, takin’ my body control
Here I stand
It's war inside me, I need someone who bless my soul
Here I stand
There’s a riot against me, takin’ my body control
Here I stand
It's war inside me
When will I ever live again?
It's time to give all and be free
Free from these chains and the hanger in your heart
Time to be strong, stop feeling sick and forsaken
Don't be afraid, never, never fall apart!
Chorus
LET THE SHAME SHINE
(D. Vassallo)
(Reflecting on past mistakes,sometimes to be ashamed could become the cure...)
Livin’ in a world drowning in fear,
I’ve never been a strong man without any tears
In this lonely desert I can hear, only angry, egoistic feelings
Mother mother look into my eyes,
They’re sick and blind who can protect me from my lies
Father please just keep your hand on my head
I need a shelter to protect me from myself
What was my promise land?
Asked in the evening prayers
What else should I do?
Before I break on through!
Chorus
(Let the shame) Shine, shine on me, shine on my life, shine on my bleeding eyes
Shine! , shine on me, shine on my soul, shine on untold words
Shine, shine on me, shine on my life, shine on my bleeding eyes
Shine, shine on me, shine on my life, shine on my idiotic behavior
I believed in peace and harmony,
All I can see ‘round is a place in misery
Someone stole my dreams and threw the key,
Leavin’ my heart broken (and all) wrapped in tears
This is not what I was supposed to be,
There’s too much pain, and I’m full of naked greed
I deserve my short life to be free,
But is my fault if things failed miserably
What was my promise land?
Asked in the evening prayers
I wasn’t able to, realize was up to me to find
Chorus
STOP THIS WAR
(T. Carretta)
(We know relationships aren't easy, sometimes we wake up into serius struggle because we lost the ability to commuicate deeply)
I guess it’s time to face the shadows, things can be so hard
I know the more you care the more you fight. but now we’ve gone too far
Too far…
I guess it’s time to turn the lights on, this place has become too dark
I know we’ve been too long in these quicksands, now it’s time to run
All those dry tears all those screams
All those late nights without sleep
All those wasted days we left behind
All the things we can’t forgive
All the things we just can’t see
All the darkest fears we hide inside
Chorus
I guess it’s time to face the shadows, life can be so hard
I know the more you care the more you fight, but now we’ve gone too far
I guess it’s time to think about it, ‘cause we lost the sun
I know it’s time to stop this war, and put down the guns
Chorus
