01. Changing Blood

Music by Eugene Simone
Lyrics by Terence Holler
People lie and people cry
And some got lots of toil in their lives,
This world today with many humans that spread,
Spreading around mountains of hate.
I'm seeking to find an escape from these things,
Trying to escape from this realty.
There is no way to stick out of this shame
And live a life full of serenity.

All these issues are changing my blood, changing me.

Changing my blood actually day after day,
Running to hide but never finding a way,
Seeking for something that could keep me away,
Away from running to ya.

Some tell me lies while some show their cries,
And some don't even care 'bout their lives.
It's hard to go on in a positive way,
It's difficult trying to keep the head high.
A walk in the town, could bring me straight down,
'Cause people are staring at me in "that" way.
Lord give me a sign and help to climb,
Help to climb the mountain of faith.

All these issues are changing my blood, changing me.

Changing my blood actually day after day,
Running to hide but never finding a way,
Seeking for something that could keep me away,
Away from running to ya.

02. Danger Zone

Music by Eugene Simone
Lyrics by Terence Holler
I see thing that keep my mind on thinking
Keep my body shaking, keep my heart on bleeding
I live things that keep my soul on breaking.
Keep my head on aching, keep my eyes on tearing.

My world needs a hero,
That's what I see.
For my salvation
Need motivations to live a better life.
Who'll be my savior?

I've been living in the danger zone,
Feeling pains that I've never felt before,
I've been living in the danger zone
And now it's time to find a safe way home.

Every morning when I wake up my body seems so heavy,
The head keeps spinning round and round.
When the night comes I'm so scared of sleeping
'Cause I'm scared of dreaming of what I got around.

My world needs a hero,
That's what I see.
For my salvation
Need motivations to live a better life.
Who'll be my savior?

I've been living in the danger zone,
Feeling pains that I've never felt before,
I've been living in the danger zone
And now it's time to find a safe way home.

03. Broken

Music by Eugene Simone
Lyrics by Terence Holler
Who will wait for me when I'll come to town?
Who can tell me if I'm wrong or if I'm right?
Who can fix my meals when I'm back at home?
Who can pull the sheet and cover me at night?

I've been pulling her to the edge of love.
I've been trying so damn hard to make her mine.
I took all the blame for this big heart crash,
I threw down the cards using the wrong hand.

I lost a piece of me when she left,
Closing my door to the happiness.

Broken-strange things that I'm feeling,
Strange things that I feel every time I think about you.

Now I need some time to be me again
And try to build a reasonable life,
I'll keep fighting for this to the end of time,
The only fear is how to stay away from crime.

I lost a piece of me when she left,
Closing my door to the happiness.

Broken-strange things that I'm feeling,
Strange things that I feel every time I think about you.

04. All And More

Music by Eugene Simone
Lyrics by Terence Holler
They put the blame on you for all your hesitations,
The big spotlight's on you so you can't hide,
It all depends on you if you want some satisfaction.
What counts if how much you dare and how much you tried

So where are you now?
Where are you heading for?
Which is your final destination or decision?

You gave,
You gave it all and more and more
You tried your best
And now you're collecting only crumbs.

When life starts getting tough breaking all the motivations,
The certainties get lost and even luck gets blind,
The only things to do is erase all your frustrations
And turn your head up high breaking down the wall.

So where are you now?
Where are you heading for?
Which is your final destination or decision?

You gave,
You gave it all and more and more
You tried your best
And now you're collecting only crumbs.

05. The Face I Wear

Music by Eugene Simone
Lyrics by Terence Holler
There's nothing to lose when you're falling to pieces,
Like getting drunk on the 4th of July,
Trying to see if there will be a limit
On living steady on the edge of life.

Too many times in so many ways I got in trouble,
Nothing will change 'till the day I'll die,

I wear a face like if I'm in love
But I don't wanna show ya.
Don't wanna tell you how your strike was tough.
Bringing me right down to hell now.

When party starts and my friends carry me there,
I'm like a fish jumping out of the bowl.
My funeral face always gets there before me,
A story read at least a thousand times.

I wear a face like if I'm in love
But I don't wanna show ya.
Don't wanna tell you how your strike was tough.
Bringing me right down to hell now.

I'll never call you back
Or give you a trace of me.
I've been losing all hopes and there's no chance for me
For living a life with a bit of dignity.

06. To The Moon And Back

Music by Eugene Simone
Lyrics by Terence Holler
When the sadness wins on me,
Feeling like I ain't alive.
When it's hard to sleep at night
But striving to get through this life.

Why me?
Why always me?

Wish you were here and I'll be the last man on earth.

Don't stand my ground and get away when I'm around
Wish I could travel to the moon and back
They say I'm walking all alone with no return
Don't stand my ground and get away from me.

Only time could heal my wounds
But it's never passing by.
Ready now to turn the page,
Bled a lot but won't give up.

Why me?
Why always me?

Wish you were here and I'll be the last man on earth.

Don't stand my ground and get away when I'm around
Wish I could travel to the moon and back
They say I'm walking all alone with no return
Don't stand my ground and get away from me.

07. Bringers Of Hate

Music by Eugene Simone
Lyrics by Terence Holler
You came to bring me hope,
But you brought only pain.
I am here, I am here, I am here trying to get outta this.
Ever since I crossed your eyes,
Thought you would've recover me
But the truth, but the truth,
But the truth is that you've hurt me harder.

And now in the morning as I wake up,
The emptiness gets bigger
And every day that'll pass will make me stronger...
Stronger.

The mornings are so hard,
The highest level of pain,
But I'm here, but I'm here, but I'm here trying to get stronger.
Every time I open my eyes,
And don't see no shade of you,
I will try, I will try, I will try to push myself through this.
And now in the morning as I wake up,
And every day that'll pass will make me stronger...
Stronger.

When I wake up I feel so down
My head is buried underground
Buried in pain
When I wake up I feel so down
I see that I am surrounded by people bringers of hate.

My father taught me rules,
That I tried to bring to life,
But it's hard, but it's hard, but it's hard to teach the world now.
Spent my life delivering goods,
But got back only pain.
This is why, this is why, this is why my eyes are full of sorrow.

And now in the morning as I wake up,
The emptiness gets bigger
And every day that'll pass will make me stronger...
Stronger.

When I wake up I feel so down
My head is buried underground
Buried in pain
When I wake up I feel so down
I see that I am surrounded by people bringers of hate.

08. The Light

Music by Eugene Simone
Lyrics by Terence Holler
Here I stand without a place to go to now
Wandering through the gates of my mind
The sun goes down and darkness crawls within me.
Though I fight and still haven't seen the light
Here I am living in the shadow.
Days like nights it doesn't make a difference
But you call I gotta tell you something.
Stand away 'cause I don't wanna be your friend,

I don't wanna be your friend,
And keep hoping till the end
I never will be your friend.

I stand, counting, all the stars and memories,
I stand alone in the shadow.

Days like hell,
Trying to find a reason.
Way too far to get out of the darkness,
I close my eyes doesn't make a difference.
How can I trust in a new dawn to come?

I don't wanna be your friend,
And keep hoping till the end
I never will be your friend.

[solo: Eugene Simone]
[solo: Rudj Ginanneschi]
[solo: Eugene Simone, Rudj Ginanneschi]

I stand, counting, all the stars and memories,
I stand alone in the shadow.

09. Piece Of Clarity

Music by Eugene Simone
Lyrics by Terence Holler
Cold winter come and freeze my mind,
Sometimes I need to switch off and close my eyes.
The rhythm of these days aren't for me,
But as I'm in the dance I'd like to see.

So if the moment comes full of curiosity,
I'll be waiting for a piece of clarity.
So if the moment comes,
I'll be here to stay
And finally settle up and build a hope for me.

Sometimes things seem so tough,
To tough to face,
But faith is all I need to blow the worries away.
Still didn't get too far, too far from here,
They told me just to trust so now I'll see.

So if the moment comes full of curiosity,
I'll be waiting for a piece of clarity.
So if the moment comes,
I'll be here to stay and finally settle up and build a hope for me.

I don't wanna spend my last dance all alone,
When I'm with you I feel in heaven,
I don't wanna spend this long night all alone,
A night with you brings me to heaven.

It's like playing roulette, it's just a game.
The more the game gets tough, the more I play.
So if I win or lose, I will be fine,
The only thing I want is you by my side.

So if the moment comes full of curiosity,
I'll be waiting for a piece of clarity.
So if the moment comes,
I'll be here to stay and finally settle up and build a hope for me.

I don't wanna spend my last dance all alone,
When I'm with you I feel in heaven,
I don't wanna spend this long night all alone,
A night with you brings me to heaven.

Only one night with you brings me straight to heaven.

10. Before I Die

Music by Eugene Simone
Lyrics by Terence Holler
I've tried to do everything to keep this love alive,
It never had been simple but I was built to always fight.
I've been breaking all the rules and tried so hard to make her stay,
But no one really knows the truth, the reason why she ran away.

I still trust in the flame,
The flame within her heart,
I still believe she has something warm inside.

And if she comes, I wanna see her,
Before I die, before I die
And if she comes, I wanna see her
Before I die, before I die.

I made a lot of mistakes so far trying to do the things right.
I should've listened to some friends that were giving me some good advice.
But I did it my way and this is the high bill yo pay.
I've better kept it all inside 'cause there ain't no remedy.

I still trust in the flame,
The flame within her heart,
I still believe she has something warm inside.

And if she comes, I wanna see her,
Before I die, before I die
And if she comes, I wanna see her
Before I die, before I die.

And what if that day is coming straight towards me?
And what should I say to try to find the remedy?
So now what will happen to me now,
What is my destiny?
Where should I go,
Or should I stay or should I just pass away?

11. Slowmotion K Us

Music by Eugene Simone
Lyrics by Terence Holler
Fog in the sky,
Sand in the eyes,
And evil dance.

Nowhere to go,
Nowhere to flow,
No second chance.

People that come,
People that go,
No permanence.

Numerous times,
We need to try,
Perseverance.

I won't survive another day,
I won't survive another,
Don't wanna waste another day,
Don't wanna waste another
I won't survive another day,
I won't survive another.
We should try to change the rhythm need to calm it down.

Wicked desire,
Sex in our minds,
Horniness,

Walking too fast,
Eating too fast,
Dying young,

"Big men" pollute,
"Big men" corrupt,
Bringing death,

Children that cry,
Children that shoot,
What is this?

I won't survive another day,
I won't survive another,
Don't wanna waste another day,
Don't wanna waste another
I won't survive another day,
I won't survive another.
We should try to change the rhythm need to calm it down.

Slow the rhythm hold your horses,
Slow the rhythm give a chance to your breath.
Slow the rhythm hold your horses,
Slow the rhythm give a chance to your breath.

The tic-tac is melting away,
No more rushing there ain't no time left to pray,
No forgiving.

I won't survive another day,
I won't survive another,
Don't wanna waste another day,
Don't wanna waste another
I won't survive another day,
I won't survive another.

[solo: Eugene Simone]

Slow the rhythm hold your horses,
Slow the rhythm give a chance to your breath.
Slow the rhythm hold your horses,
Slow the rhythm give a chance to your breath.
