Day by day
Wheels keep turning round And everynight Many restless creatures longing for the dawn To heal away Their eternal pain... Hope the saints arrive Bringing the signs Of treasures to be found Now we walk alone And we've got to know The secrets all around Breaking our hearts of stone, Tasting our lives, Setting us free to decide... "Wings Of Reality, Take me higher and higher Show me the way to be Free forever with you... I guess I've found my way Everyday growing stronger So many words to say, So many things to do..." The ghosts get closer to many fears A beast has awakened here inside... All we don't know, nobody knows! ...And the pay back is coming someday!! 02. Petrified Eyes Music by R. Bittencourt Lyrics by Bittencourt, Tsangarides
We're armed and ready to attack
To strike the city of all desires Then calm the waves that lead to passion When all reality turns back to ashes Over the hills, across the sea Into the abyss of a bygone time Lest we forget what really matters And the bewildered look up to the sky Fallen comrades lay on the ground Victors in death they make no sound Petrify my eyes Behold the sights of battle lost In this unchanging world What does the poor life of a warrior cost? Oh can't you see Many faces from God's own races are waiting To fight the good fight Even thought the animals of time have passed you by you still don't see Oh, you won't see They've petrified your eyes Deep desires of mine Dark thoughts tirannize my mind When will this torture end Into the mire, to battle again 03. Lisbon Music & lyrics by Andre Matos
Everynight I say a prayer
Look at me: nobody cares Just a mirror, passing by... Looked inside: I've lost my pride...! Stay with me not for so long It's alright: no needs, no hope Such a miracle, looking back... Time gone by, and life wasn't bad...! Lord, light my way Fill these withered, careless hands... Oh, skies are falling down Skies are falling down Oh, skies are falling down Skies are falling down See, the birds are back... At the docks and everywhere Here in Lisbon, realized This whole world so strange and divine Lord, light my way Fill these withered, careless hands... Oh, skies are falling down Skies are falling down Oh, skies are falling down Skies are falling down 04. Metal Icarus Music by Bittencourt, Loureiro, Confessori Lyrics by R. Bittencourt
You live in a world that is just
Way too strange to conceive Angel's dressed in black Most of the people who seem to be Lost in the dark - Are they all too real? Always a good time, never lonely Suddenly realized the blood red tears from my eyes There was nothing much I could do But watch you die Time after time Burnt your wings on the sun Metal Icarus First time I met you I wanted To be by your side And let my hair grow long Those days are gone But I still fly by night Bringing life to the dead Even through times when I felt lonely Suddenly realized the blood red tears from my eyes There was nothing much I could do But watch you die Time after time Burnt your wings on the sun Metal Icarus Night after night Upon forces unknown Metal Icarus Ah! Those were the years I can still feel the windy heights Against my skin And if I close my eyes I'm flying over hills! 05. Paradise Music by Loureiro, Bittencourt, Matos Lyrics by A. Matos
Since the time of the ancients
When gladiators fought Turning movements of action to passion Their life was a game See the blood of the bodies Spilling onto the floor? How could people applaud it It's madness it's all so insane! Blood, through your heart Never stops for one minute And there you will find: - There is no other way! The arena's still crowded But the rules take new forms Some of them tread on stages, Some others chase after a ball... Blood, through your heart Never stops for one minute And there you will find: - There is no way out! Demons with a thousand eyes: - Look at me and cast your spell!... We're dreaming of Paradise While we stay here in hell!!! 06. Mystery Machine Music by Loureiro, Bittencourt, Matos Lyrics by Confessori, Tsangarides
The sun rises over the tide
Waves breaking over the rocks Again and again like an echo From the mountine tops This feeling you just can't hide Like an open page revealed for all to see You breathe hard, Like the sea breeze coming in Hold your arms to the sky Don't let clouds hide the sun Don't runaway cos' you can't hide from thunder Cold sweat glistening on your brow The rains will come crashing down A million voices sing out loud again tonight As the mysteries of life begin to unfold Master of fate you're the only one who knows Machine of mystery roles on 07. Fireworks Music by Bittencourt, Loureiro, Confessori, Matos Lyrics by A. Matos
It's New Year Day;
Looking up to the sky We all await for the fireworks to fly And I hold you And I stand by you now... Over the bay darkness breaks to a glow But still the sands keep on running too slow And I love you And I care for you now... Green comes after white Night turns to day into the fire Look at our dreams flying away Climbing up higher Along the shore timeless faces reflect The innocence of childhood never left And I miss you And I cry for you now Green comes after white Night turns to day into the fire Look at our dreams flying away Climbing up higher And the ones who we trust And the moments of joy Mirrored there is a glow That will dazzle our eyes Here is my heart, in my soul Sharing the miracle of Hope In my heart, in my mind, in my soul... Stay hand in hand, stay with me Love is the keys to believe In our hearts, in our minds, in our souls! ...But now no matter what I say, Just look at the fireworks! 08. Extreme Dream Music by Loureiro, Bittencourt Lyrics by A. Matos
Living a dream just for one night
Feels like the last day of my life Roaming somewhere just for a while When all the feelings lay dorment inside Here we go, marching on... Unconsciously far from this world We're knowing foundations of all in such extreme virtuality All we don't need is the proof to believe Here we go, marching ahead Buried deep in the sand... I recognize this place, All those faces, all these scenes Though I'm so often there It's somewhere I've never been (Over and over again) ...It's so extreme My endless dream...! 09. Gentle Change Music by Bittencourt, Confessori, Mariutti Lyrics by R. Bittencourt
I see the stars in your eyes
Portraying my face in the future Nice is the weather outside But I'll stay at home Oh! Waiting for the rain... Memories of when we were young Wishing so bad to be older Now you may look to the past The only way forward ...Lighting up another cigarette Playing cool while cracking up inside Saying hi to people's like saying goodbye Laughing, but wishing to cry Gentle change of tides Upcoming days Oh, the spirits of a new horizon fall Into old dreams Standing here howling at the storm Shouting how life could be perfect Well, then the walls have to fall To start it again Gentle change of tides Upcoming days Oh, the spirits of a new horizon fall Into old dreams Far away from sights Oh, hidden in the maze Oh, oh, spirits of a new horizon fall Into old dreams 10. Speed Music by K. Loureiro Lyrics by A. Matos
Speed, run the thoughts inside your brain
Try to catch them once And you'll be alone There's nowhere to go Speed, all the memories will come Try to make them live And you'll get so lost From the present to the past With speed we go But still don't know What's hidden in there Out time is over! Speed, like a thunderbolt The future will take its place Then could you stop time Perhaps when you die? With speed we go But still don't know What's hidden in there Out time is over! Faster than light we will find A way out of the conscience And the more we know, more we'll mind It's matter of patience, Always... 11. Rainy Nights
Rainy nights can easily go
The morning sun, a lover so A cup of tea still held tight in her hand And tomorrow'll be just like yesterday Taken by promises She's just begun to feel the heat From the fire, and so Crazy thoughts out of control Somewhere else away from home An angels's kiss, the fresh breeze on her face Closed her eyes and walked into the haze - And fade away aken by promises She's just begun to feel the heat From the fire Burning herself and her soul - Fade away, fade away Scenes from yesterday, seem so far away 'Till the day they'll return again Taken by promises She's just begun to feel the heat From the fire Burning herself and her soul So understand, my friend Sometimes there's rain, Sometimes there's breeze Fanning the fire, and so ...Burns herself back to dust Brings the hope and the love Sews the ends of rope Gets us further somehow Away from home and from all Thoughts dancing out of control Turning the stones into gold Leading to planets unknown Blowing the fire and so I promise I won't let you go |
