Yes I have seen the frightened ones And I have been, on the dark side of the sun. I´m a stranger, but I´m someone. I´ve been waiting, but I haven´t asked. There´s always something to understand But in this moment, that´s... no fun. Nothing is real? It´s not that bad You are the wrong, you are the mad ones. Yes I have seen, how this world burns there´s a future where I am, the chosen one. I´m not the crossed man, cause he is no one. But I am sure that he never came to say what´s right There are lights, that can be shadows we live in this lost garden, so full of both Everything is real, so try to swallow that you are just a fool, there are no shadows.

Frozen eyes across the sky they are running over our lights starting a new day, they start a new life I´m trying to ask them how, how can I make it right and without making any sense, are turning me to: "outside". turning me, to outside. You let the fire set me free Yeah, but it burnt me and as I saw the world away, it came near. Now I can make it disappear. I wouldn´t run from voices I wouldn´t run from fear And now they are always near, always here. I wouldn´t run from monsters I wouldn´t run from beasts But now they are always here, always near. I wouldn´t run from power I wouldn´t run from peace I wouldn´t run from masters I wouldn´t run from me me... Oh me... I wouldn´t run from me me...

You know that you are doing something wrong but at least you can´t find anyone who can explain you why are you closing the doors it´s never enough Can´t raise your voice upon this worlds by saying goodbye to all your lords they are your faults. Just focus, write on the paper "Forgot, and implored: Everyone, will kiss the floor, cause everyone, dies alone" Here comes a "yes" between this "no" there in your room begins the storm you are your demons, but you are your gods. It would be easier to fall, but it´s said you will never cross that door. So keep your hands far from the blood. Immerse, in this ocean Find, the way to breath Everyone, says it´s enough But you, you know they are wrong.

Your Fingers 07:27
Let me be, in my sweet, my strangest place. Or let me see, your wisdom through this words. It´s so fine, to find the soul who never closes its doors. Let me be, let me see the shadows of your world Let them burn, maybe I could run, from all the planets we call "home". I had never felt this way before The way you breath, means that I´m not alone. Let me float, from your fingers to the lightbulb Let me know, if my lips turn purple when the haze is low. It´s so strange, being someone who always looks to the floor. Let me know, and I´ll let you know, where do you hide when you feel small. I´ll let you float, then we will fall, where your sadness paints the stone. I had never felt this way before, the way you laugh, the way I´m not alone This tree is waiting, while growing strong finding new places, where nothing is wrong. Where nothing is wrong.

Pero cómo me pides que yo, que vivo tan cerca del suelo que ya no sé caminar, cómo me pides que sea aquél que te salve del mal. A ti, que te horrorizan las caras sonrientes por encadenadas a un pasado fugaz, que jamás volverá. A mí, que no sé ni si existe un lenguaje para cantar la verdad, nombrándola "libertad". Libertad sin esperanza, manchada de vicios sin alma, pero pura como aquella mañana en la que se torció el plan. "Cantar para", para crearte ficciones que puedas amar. "Amar para", para venderte ilusiones que no puedes pagar. Por qué siempre que tropiezas en tus sueños, tan lejanos como el sol risueño que te hace bailar. Por qué siempre vuelves con miedo estrella azul de los cielos templado lucero, dispuesto a estallar. Entre artificios de dientes pequeños entre sonrisas que suenan de hierro aunque estás hecha de otro metal. Que es tierno y resbaladizo por dentro, pero fiero y seco, como el atrezzo mental, del que no puedo escapar. Ya solo quedan dos gotas de agua en tu infierno personal y las que están en tus ojos, no se evaporarán. Porque nadie, nadie las verá brillar en esta oscuridad, y porque hay algo, hay algo de absurdo en los mundos que jamás conocerás. Y tras el cuerpo inerte que algún día habremos de legar tras la voz invisible maltratada por el alquitrán tras el canto que trata de nada a la amada libertad tras el atrezzo de plástico fino que hay que derrumbar.

Show now your holy contradictions, you have been so long hiding yourself in fictions drinking wine from rotten grapes celebrating the night´s end. Identity is not the kind of gift nature gives you, you knew that the first time you encountered yourself in a mirror but now it seems you have forgotten that pain Now, just, please, remember your pain. Solitary bridge man living in his self-created nonsense Solitary bridge man Is this the last bridge you should cross? I´m not trying to tell you anything you could not understand Not trying to make you mine, or keep you under control Just want you to go to the highest mountains, where gods are whispering softly: "come to me, child of nothing" Solitary bidge man Living in his self-created nonsense Solitary bridge man Is this the last bridge you should cross?
