We consider Thought-Tormented Minds as a single track, not a concept album, that contains last five years of our life, feelings and troubles. Every song is a little step into Greyswan.

1. Thought-Tormented Minds:
We were looking for something to introduce our minds, so tormented. We think it's ok, but it's only an intro. Lyrics are by James Joyce and I think they perfectly explain our songs. We play Thought-Tormented Music!..... and he knew........

2. Questions:
is one of the latest song we composed, we think it sounds so complete. Lyrics are very introspective, it's very difficult for me to explicate the real meaning of these words, 'cause it's the result of a peculiar frame of my existence.

3. Sleepless Night:
is the oldest song in the cd. It was on our promo 2001, but the cd version is different in some rithmic parts, the keys have different sonds, but the most important difference is that the song had been played by new musicians. I wrote the lyrics of this song, they are very important for me, 'cause they talk about a particular period of my life. That sleepless night had really existed, for the first time I used music to talk about myself , without barriers or fears. I love this song, lyrics and music are in perfect symbiosis.

4. Lost Smiles:
How can you interpret the " sense of upside-down world"? Lyrics have been written by Gianluca, our guitarrist, are based on his own experince and very personal. I have gived my interpretation, and I think that anyone shold explain it in his own.


5. This Gloomy Sickness:
is a meteoropathic track. It was born during a cold winter, many peolple say that Italy is the country of the sun, but believe me, in my town winter is really cold, misty and dark. In those periods, thorns are too deep to bear, but we are still alive.....

6. We'll Never Be:
sometimes we think that could be better return child, without all the troubles that makes us downcast and sad. We will never be..... a lot of things..... maybe rich or famous, but we will never live as robots moved by someone else. I saw many friends loosing themselves pursuiting what?? We have been given few time to live.....it would be stupid to waste it.

7. Witness Of A Better Time:
who wouldn't awake one morning and find himself witness of a better time?

8. Afraid To Go On, Afraid To Come Back:
it has been written in the darkest moment of the band. After promo 2001, 3 Greyswan's members left the band: only me, Gianluca and Luca stayed, to keep alive the band. We wrote music and lyrics together, to convert a bad situation into something good. It was the first song wrote for T.T.M., it laid the foundations of T.T.M.'s sound.
