Dry well 04:43
So let me share my story about this dry well Drained for all who passes by But Wet for me as hell I'm sleeping in a well of tears She cuts the climbing rope I try to swim in fears and float like cork on top This is the well that she creates to hide some more Memories that fade as I grow old. Yeah Like a fortune teller She knows it all Seems like demons knocking my back-door Trapped if I take decisions Trapped if I ask for help And even if I know the reasons Trapped in her fucking well This Dry well, it knows it all

Perfect man 04:58
The story of your perfect man Can guide you to the darkest sun When your soul is feeling blue He's carrying eyes will always be with you And when the lights are going down He grants you with his deepest bow treats you like a perfect man Big bright eyes and friendly smile Shiny costume every night Time goes by, now crowd is gone At his nasty Lair alone Incomplete and insecure His home a mess his a filthy prick His closet neat with wool and silk A closet full of skins to wear Each skin a role, a role to serve And if you ask him don't be sure Behind his story lies the truth Like stories of a perfect man

One way road 05:41
The pupils of my eyes are wide I just wanted a joyride But now I'm speedin' There is no turn to save my self I Don't give a dime to save myself Your aura smells like dead end And still my fortune shows Things that I've never chose Unfinished one way road Named after love Your wishes set by storybooks Your mama said you've got the looks But now she's weeping Your daddy gambles likes some chicks shelter made of broken bricks And that's the story You give me names you call me prince Using me to kill the beast The beast that growls inside me That's all I've got, that's what I need My storybook for you to read My own perceptions You can never see me, walking in the streets You see footsteps, traces of my presence on the road and on the pavement the trail of doubt I leave behind You can never hear me talking about birds and bees You hear my voice, it strays like a leaf dancing on a breeze that blows from different directions every day on every corner, in every alleyway It is you that follows me around, you are my shadow my ego on the wall, when I look behind my back I see you as a shade, covering the tracks in which I dwell and then again I fall, into the dry well

The leafs of my age Are falling down The shades of my life Colored brown The wistful scent of breeze's gown Reminds me all the years I count What I've learned is what I chose to learn And all this sense is what I choose to spread Foolproof like all the other men All that I gain, Is lore embedded in a crown of shame I wear it to dethrone myself And all my years are passing by but why An empty canvas colored white I paint my deeds I paint my crimes, wasted tries A life of vows composed by lies All those vows Are laying down now I see them burn No turning back now And When I'm through The leafs will fall The shades will burn Once for all

Writing my will for those Waiting on hades doors Till i close my eyes no step back, no compromise no debt to defray No borders that I couldn't brake Till i close my eyes I'll color moments by your side And change this state Grey I'll fade Writing my will for those Waiting on hades doors Till i close my eyes Till i watch my last sunrise I'll fix what I broke And scream for the things I never spoke gonna turn around the clock Erase the wrinkles of my soul Grow young to be reborn not enough to make me stop Seize the day Cause all will fade Piled in line passing the hades doors Losing the life that flows

A shelter 07:01
Can you see the man that I became? As the well was my shelter, I shed my shadow left it lying on the floor, in front of the closet in whichI hid my crown of shame I walk without the weight of doubt Stand among you as an equal And I look upon what I have gained hope remains that I will find a house of light to lock away my darkness Would you believe me when I told you that I’ve never made mistakes? Would you trust me with your secrets If you knew that I had none?

Hope remains 05:57
Burns like a flame, what the human race has never blamed Newborn baby shines like a gem. A point in the map of history may change Time has come to criticise myself. I became like those I used to blame Like my silent parents, like my foolish race. Never wrong, I'm always right, I've never made mistakes. Those who stands, are those we blame. That's the rotten world that we create. What the hell !!! Who is right? Without a try? What the hell we gonna leave behind?? Such a shame... Leave them young to do some great mistakes Make them strong no matter what it takes because orders ,orders ,orders has made us all the same we're hiding back from our childhood boogie man Those who stands, are those we blame. That's the rotten world that we create. What the hell !!! Who is right? Without a try? What the hell we gonna leave behind?? Such a shame Burns like a flame, what the human race has never blamed
