E me che i tempi ed il desio d'onore
Fan per diversa gente ir fuggitivo,
Me ad evocar gli eroi chiamin le Muse
Del mortale pensiero animatrici.
Siedon custodi de sepolcri, e quando
Il tempo con sue fredde ale vi spazza
Fin le rovine, le Pimplée fan lieti
Di lor canto i diserti, e l'armonia
Vince di mille secoli il silenzio.

I can never die!
I can never die!

This life is mine forever
Who free from fears I smile at death
As I become immortal
Writing with my blood on this wall, words that you'll never forget
My story engraved with these bones and no regret
I burned my nerves
I ripped my heart out to feel alive
I made a pact with my own devils
Thus, I can never die

Catching the light with every stroke
Bringing to life the soul trapped in stone
Carving your name into eternity
Beyond the end of time
Enclosing the existence in timeless words
Piercing the silence with these sharpened notes
Defeating death forever
Immortal you'll become
We will never die

Demiurges on Earth, Gods of flesh
We create from nothing
We fight the void with bare hands in our sleepless nights
Outcast since birth, mocked by everyone
Bleeding inside
At our expenses we tempered an iron will
Never bowing down, never kneeling before conformity
With no respite in this war against mediocrity
Art crusaders
True believers of this only religion
We come together at the cry
"We can never die!"

Catching the light with every stroke
Bringing to life the soul trapped in stone
Carving your name into eternity
Beyond the end of time
Enclosing the existence in timeless words
Piercing the silence with these sharpened notes
Defeating death forever
Immortal you'll become
We will never die

We will never be forgotten
As art survives and keeps our flame alive
While mortal coils lie six feet under
So when my time will come
Don't grieve for me but raise your glasses
And in my honour, play this music loud
For all the centuries to come

Catching the light with every stroke
Bringing to life the soul trapped in stone
Carving your name into eternity

Catching the light with every stroke
Bringing to life the soul trapped in stone
Carving your name into eternity
Beyond the end of time
Enclosing the existence in timeless words
Piercing the silence with these sharpened notes
Defeating death forever
Immortal you'll become
We will never die

I kill myself without realizing
Nail after nail until the bitter end
Love for the unknown is what brought me up here
Where air is so thin that we can barely breathe
But better not look down

But this time you went too far
Oh, come on
On the path of no return
I can't believe it

I'm falling down
Straight to fucking hell
I'm dying, help
Nobody hears

"The dead" is the man who cannot give up
Haunted by the fear of dishonour
Dreams made of lead fill my barrel
Waiting to be shot straight into my brain
My Russian Roulette

Like dead meat hanging by a thread
But it's not my fault
You get the end you deserve
Sooner or later

I'm falling down
Straight to fucking hell
I'm dying, help
Nobody hears "the dead"

Lost soul
Swinging between life and death in a world upside down
Fool, walking on the edge
And now I'm a goddamned pendulum
Come up against this inglorious end
Yes, a fucking pendulum

I'm falling down
Straight to fucking hell
I'm dying, help
The fucking pendulum

Awake, alone, paralyzed
The blood in my mouth tastes like defeat
Wounded, swollen, bleeding
I'm hanging on this wall like a crucifix
Pieces of bones scattered everywhere
I wrap my left arm around my neck
I feel my legs no more
While adrenaline is blasting my bursting heart

Drop by drop
All my blood
Turns this granite to red
Tick tock
Like a clock
Till my veins are emptied
And the wind
Plucks a harp
While my soul disappears
But I'm not dead yet!

I can see my life flashing before my eyes
I can hear my wife yelling my name in vain
While my son holds a shovel and is digging my grave
But I'm not dead yet...
All I know is that I don't want to leave this earth today
On this rope I must fight tooth and nail
Hear these words that like a mantra I repeat to myself
I'm not dead yet!

Not yet, the countdown has started for the bloodclock
Broken is the hourglass, exsanguinating till the last drop, ah!

I can see my life flashing before my eyes
I can hear my wife yelling my name in vain
While my son holds a shovel and is digging my grave
But I'm not dead yet...
All I know is that I don't want to leave this earth today
On this rope I must fight tooth and nail
Hear these words that like a mantra I repeat to myself
I'm not dead yet!

(Life) - I can be cruel sometimes
Let you touch the sky or make you fall!
Watch you, striving for peace of mind
Hunting high and low
Till you're gone!

Future is so unpredictable
Just hold on
To your hopes -

I'm not dead yet!
Mark my words ‘cause
I'm not dead yet!
And I'm not dying today!
I'm not dead yet, fuck!

I've spent my whole life trying
To get rid of you
'Cause I can't keep carrying this burden
That's slowly dragging me to hell, damn!
With you

Sail, over the high seas of regret
(No, I don't have any regret)
Climb up the mountain of fame
(And I'm not seeking fame)
Pain is the price for respect
(I just don't care for your respect)
Or else the oblivion!

(As one on the earth)
Kneel down
(Doomed forever)
Before
(Confined to the flesh)
Your queen
(Live to suffer)
Your Soul
(Hand in hand to hell)
My will
(Burn together)
Be done
(Victims of ourselves)
Till death
(Bastard brothers)
As one

At war with my soul!
At war with my soul!

Born with my worst enemy inside
There is no truce with you
Burnt alive by the worst anima inside
That wears out the body but the cancer is you

Sail, over the high seas of regret
(No, I don't have any regret)
Climb up the mountain of fame
(And I'm not seeking fame)
Pain is the price for respect
(I just don't care for your respect)
Or else the oblivion!

(As one on the earth)
Kneel down
(Doomed forever)
Before
(Confined to the flesh)
Your queen
(Live to suffer)
Your Soul
(Stay away from me)
Forsake
(Set me free now!)
All hopes
(Before it's too late)
Your life
(Before the end)
Is mine
(I will kill you, soul!)

(Hand in hand to hell)
My will
(Burn together)
Be done
(Victims of ourselves)
Till death
(Bastard brothers)
As one

At war with my soul!


Ah! I'll kill you before you'll kill me!
I'll find my way out, out of this fucking hell!

Call my name tonight
You know I will come
Let me in and I'll take your mind to the grand ball, ah!
In your darkest hour
I'm the only one
That can make you forget the past and dance till dawn
Till death!

Come my lady! Come to me!
Here I am open-armed in my misery
Take me where the pain is just a bad memory
And I lose the last shred of my dignity
Oh! Come my lady, dance within!
Make me spin on this vorticose melody
Inebriated by this wonder of science I sing!
Morphine! Morphine!

Put your pride aside
Let me take your hand
Like the king and queen on the dance floor of the damned
I'll anaesthetize
Every single nerve
Like a new man forsake this life
And dance till dawn the dance of death!

Come my lady! Come to me!
Here I am open-armed in my misery
Take me where the pain is just a bad memory
And I lose the last shred of my dignity
Oh! Come my lady, dance within!
Make me spin on this vorticose melody
Inebriated by this wonder of science I sing!
Morphine! Morphine!

There is no torment here
Nor the slightest sign of suffering
Dancing my morphine waltz
And 'round and 'round we twirl
Like the broken bones inside my flesh
This is the antechamber of death
This is my morphine waltz!

Come my lady! Come to me!
Here I am open-armed in my misery
Take me where the pain is just a bad memory
And I lose the last shred of my dignity
Oh! Come my lady, dance within!
Make me spin on this vorticose melody
Inebriated by this wonder of science I sing!
Morphine! Morphine!

Run, boy, run until your lungs give out
They are bleeding
Walk the earth with no regret
Follow your heart one step beyond the horizon
Trust me
Don't let your fears hold you back
'Cause life is in your hands

Where are we going Mother?
Where do we come from?
What is the purpose of life?
I think I've gone too far
And now I feel so lost
But at the same time so alive

I crossed the very thin line
Between right and wrong
Ending up where pleasure is turned to pain and good men into monsters
My ego led me astray
Till I've become a ghost
And all that's left is just your voice that echoes
In my empty head, loud

Run, boy, run until your lungs give out
I never meant to hurt you
Walk the earth with no regret
I just felt this fire inside
Follow your heart one step beyond the horizon
August 21st
Don't let your fears hold you back
The day you watch me die!

Sorry for making you cry!
Sorry for making you grieve for me!
Oh Mother forgive me, forgive me!

How could I do this to myself
How could I do this to you
And still deserve your love
I wish I could release you from all this sorrow
I wish I wasn't me
I wish I was never born

Yet there's this song in my head
A song about remorse
That I won't hold inside my pen 'cause it might be the last
I need you to know I'm sorry
And that I haven't forgotten
The things you told me when I was a kid, they're still here
Forever stuck in mind just like daggers through my heart!

Run, boy, run until your lungs give out
Walk the earth with no regret
Follow your heart one step beyond the horizon
Don't let your fears hold you back
'Cause life is in your hands
'Cause life is in your hands!

Sorry for making you cry!
Sorry for making you grieve for me!
Oh Mother forgive me, forgive me!

Before our fate unite
We die together and are born again
This day, August 21st, August 21st!

Save the world with one hand!
Save the world with one hand!

Saving my world with one hand
It's exactly what I've been told that would've never happened
Easier cutting arms, sawing legs
An amputation of hopes from a desperate man
If there's one thing I have learned
Is that there is almost nothing that human will can't subvert
But a second chance must be deserved
So the hard way is how you learn how to be a real man!

Salvation lies inside your broken heart
I won't give up without a fight
Don't despair!
I'll find my own way out
Be the only master of a brand new destiny!

Stronger than any suffering
Playing chess with my willpower
A war of nerves to the death
I'm coming back from the dead
To save my world!

I won't raise the white flag till the end of the war
As titanium will give me new strength
So I can fight with one hand!
Standing, walking, running again
Life is too short to let pain interfere with my plans
No surrender or just living in the past
One by one all their dogmas will be crushed by the undead!

Salvation lies inside your broken heart
I won't give up without a fight
Don't despair!
I'll find my own way out
Be the only master of a brand new destiny!

Stronger than any suffering
Playing chess with my willpower
A war of nerves to the death
I'm coming back from the dead!

I can feel the spear of Longinus piercing through my flesh
I got lost in the depths of despair, reduced to nothing
I've accepted the worst humiliation and I turned it into deliverance
Like a phoenix from the ashes
Per aspera ad astra!

Broken heart
I won't give up without a fight
Don't despair!
I'll find my own way out
Be the only master of a brand new destiny!

Stronger than any suffering
Playing chess with my willpower
A war of nerves to the death
I'm coming back from the dead
To fuck this world!

A minute can last an eternity here
You stare at the dust dancing over your fears
A freezing moon casts a pale light on our broken dreams and the shadows come alive
So day after day like a candle we burn
Devoured by the flame of a new hope that won't come
And the future is buried by the past and its epitaph recites "Nothing will be the same"

Whatever comes our way
I'm with you
Together till death do us part
I swear it's true

Remember the time standing on top of the world
When anguish and grief seemed so far down below
And confidence was warming our hearts in the rising sun and we were just invincible

Whatever comes our way
I'm with you
Together till death do us part
I swear it's true

Don't leave me now!
Stay by my side!
Against all odds
Against time!
I need you Hope like never before
You and me!
For all eternity!

Whatever comes our way
I'm with you
Together till death do us part
I swear it's true
