-- ALL THIS TIME (EXPLORATION) --
SPENDING TIME MARVELING,
I DIVE INTO A MAGICAL WORLD,
OPENING SECRET DOORS,
MY DREAMS COME TRUE
A GARDEN OF UNLIMITED IDEAS,
PURSUING MY ENDLESS STORIES.
I KNOW WHERE I AM
I KNOW WHERE I AM
SOMEDAY, I FEEL
THAT I WILL WAKE UP
IN ANOTHER WORLD
AND THE DREAMS WILL BE GONE
SOMEDAY, I FEEL, I FEEL
WALKING IN THESE
FAMILIAR STREETS
I SEEK THE SOLUTION
TO MY RIDDLES,
I FIND A PASSAGE
IN AN ABANDONED HOUSE
SO I GO, UP THE STEPS
AND DISCOVER
A TREASURE I SAW ON MY MAP
I KNOW WHERE I AM
I KNOW WHERE I AM
SOMEDAY, I FEEL
THAT I WILL WAKE UP
IN ANOTHER WORLD
AND THE DREAMS WILL BE GONE
SOMEDAY, I FEEL
LIKE I COULD COME BACK AGAIN
I COULD COME BACK AGAIN
SOMEDAY, I FEEL
ONLY IF I REALLY WANT IT
SOMEDAY, I FEEL, I FEEL, I FEEL

AT THE STATION
03:26
|

|
-- AT THE STATION (COPE EVERYDAY) --
I WONDER WHERE I AM,
BUT ALSO WHERE AM I GOING?
AND EVERYONE IS GOING FAST.
BUT I FEEL
I AM GOING SLOW
I’M WAITING ON THE QUAY.
THEY SEEMS TO HAVE
A LOT TO DO
I AM IN FRONT OF THE TRACK,
AND ASK MYSELF
ALL KINDS OF THINGS
HOW TO BE SURE
OF WHAT TO CHOOSE
AND WHAT TO DO
I’M BEING JOSTLED BY
THE PEOPLE WHO COME IN AND OUT.
OUT OF TOUCH WITH THE WORLD.
IT’S LIKE
I'M DRIVING IN REVERSE
AM I THE ONLY ONE
TO THINK ABOUT THIS QUESTION NOW
I AM STARTING TO GET TIRED
I HOPE I NEED IT
TO MOVE FORWARD
HOW TO BE SURE
OF WHAT TO CHOOSE
AND WHAT TO DO
I WONDER WHERE I AM
BUT ALSO WHERE AM I GOING?
AND EVERYONE IS GOING FAST
BUT I FEEL
I AM GOING SLOW
I’M WAITING ON THE QUAY
THEY SEEMS TO HAVE
A LOT TO DO
NOW MY TRAIN
HAS JUST ARRIVED
AND I AM LEAVING
TO NOWHERE
HOW TO BE SURE
OF WHAT TO CHOOSE
AND WHAT TO DO

PRISONER OF TIME
04:30
|
|||
|
-- PRISONER OF TIME (I’M A PRISONER) --
I’M A PRISONER OF TIME
I SPREAD MY WINGS
BUT NOTHING HELPS
LIKE A CAGED BIRD
WHO FIGHTS TO INFINITY
I MOVE IN ALL
DIRECTIONS
TIME SEEMS TO ACCELERATE
I'M GOING FASTER THAN HIM
THAN HIM
IT MUST BE RELATIVITY
THAT DISTORTS MY JUDGMENT
WHEN AM I
A STARDUST
THAT WOULD UPSET EVERYTHING
IN THE MIDDLE OF OUR LIFE
OF OUR LIFE
A MOMENT OR AN ETERNITY
OF CLARITY OR MADNESS
OR MADNESS

BLACK MIRROR
04:04
|
|||
|
-- BLACK MIRROR (THE UPPER HAND) --
ENGINES ON
TO LIGHT YEARS AWAY,
I’M LEAVING
THE HUMAN RACE.
COME ON, COME ON, COME ON!
STRAIGHT AHEAD!
I HAVE NO CONCERN
THE DESERT ROAD
FLOWING THROUGH
COME ON, COME ON, COME ON!
THE MACHINES DO OUR JOB,
AND TAKE US WHERE WE WANT,
COME ON, COME ON!
AM I IN DENIAL?
I DON’T SEE THE EXCESSES
WHY WOULD I SEE THEM?
I REALLY TRUST
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE.
I HAVE LESS WORK
I AM LESS TIRED
AND MY HEALTH LOOKS BETTER
AM I IN DENIAL?
I DON’T SEE THE EXCESSES
WHY WOULD I SEE THEM?
I REALLY TRUST
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE.
BUT UNTIL THE DAY
IT GET THE UPPER HAND

A WAY OUT
04:00
|
|||
|
-- A WAY OUT (ZOMBIE SONG) --
THE FLOWERS LOOK BLAND AND
THE PEOPLE SEEM DISTRACTED
HERMETIC
EVERYWHERE
LIGHT IS STRUGGLING
TO STAY FOR US, ODDLY
I AM CROSSING THE ROAD
AND THEN, AND THEN
AND I RUSH INTO THE CITY
I HAVE TROUBLE
TROUBLE MOVING
I SEE MY REFLECTION IN
A WINDOW I DO NOT RECOGNIZE
MYSELF
I FEEL SLOW
AND TIRED LIKE
A ZOMBIE
IN A MOVING SAND
MY CONDITION IS MY PRISON
I'D BE BETWEEN TWO WATERS?
I FEEL LIKE
I'M BEING PUSHED SOMEWHERE
MY CROSSING
IS NOT OVER, NOT YET
I STILL
WONDER WHAT I MUST
REALIZE
AS I HEAR THE LOUD VOICES
I TAKE THE WAY OUT / MY ESCAPE

TAKING YOUR TIME
04:25
|

|
-- TAKING YOUR TIME (INFANCY) --
YOU STAMMER, YOU MAKE SOUNDS.
TAKING YOUR TIME, TAKING YOUR TIME
YOU LISTEN SERIOUSLY.
TAKING YOUR TIME, TAKING YOUR TIME
I HEAR YOUR LAUGHTER, YOUR CRYING.
TAKING YOUR TIME, TAKING YOUR TIME
YOUR EYES ARE FULL OF MAGIC.
TAKING YOUR TIME, TAKING YOUR TIME
OTHERS TOOK THE TIME
TO EXPRESS ALL THEIR FEELINGS.
I WOULD LIKE TO CATCH,
YOUR DREAMS THAT AMAZE YOUR WORLD,
TRAVEL WITH YOUR VOICE.
TAKING YOUR TIME, TAKING YOUR TIME
WHEN YOU FEEL IT SON.
TAKING YOUR TIME, TAKING YOUR TIME
ATTEMPT, BOUNCE, PERSEVERE.
TAKING YOUR TIME, TAKING YOUR TIME
DRIVE WHERE YOU WANT
TAKING YOUR TIME, TAKING YOUR TIME
WE STILL HAVE SOME QUESTIONS.
NEVER BE SURE OF THE ANSWERS.
WE ARE TRAPPED BETWEEN
NORMALITY AND EXCEPTION.
AND WORDS WILL TAKE SHAPE
TRAVEL WITH YOUR VOICE.
TAKING YOUR TIME, TAKING YOUR TIME
WHEN YOU FEEL IT SON
TAKING YOUR TIME, TAKING YOUR TIME.
ATTEMPT, BOUNCE, PERSEVERE.
TAKING YOUR TIME, TAKING YOUR TIME.
DRIVE WHERE YOU WANT
TAKING YOUR TIME, TAKING YOUR TIME.

HOW COULD WE SEE
05:49
|
|||
|
-- HOW COULD WE SEE (EMOTION COLORS) --
WE BELONG
TO SOMETHING WILD,
WE TRY TO HEAR
OUR INNER VOICE
SHOULD WE TAME THE BEAST
THE BEAST IN US
TO FIND OUR PLACE HERE ?
THE YEARS GO BY
AND WE LIVE OUR STORIES
THOSE OF CULTURE
WE COME FROM
AND WE REMEMBER
SOMETIMES WE REGRET
JUST LOOKING
OVER THE SHOULDER
IS IT DUE TO RENEWAL
OR IS IT STILL
THE SAME STORY
IN A LOOP FOREVER
WHAT IS WRITTEN
AND WHAT IS NOT ?
WE FEEL THIS NEED
TO ALWAYS LOOK
FOR SOMETHING BETTER
TO REALIZE ONE SELF
A FEW WORDS
THAT FLY AWAY
SOME FEELINGS
IN SUSPENSION
HOW COULD WE SEE
THE IMAGE OF FEELINGS
THOSE WHO
HAVE ALWAYS BEEN
CLOSE TO HATCHING
THEY COULD EXIST
NOW YOU CAN SEE
EVERYTHING’S STARTS AGAIN
HOW COULD WE SEE
THE IMAGE OF FEELINGS
THOSE WHO
HAVE ALWAYS BEEN
CLOSE TO HATCHING
THEY COULD EXIST
NOW YOU CAN SEE
EVERYTHING’S STARTS AGAIN

RESIGNATION
05:20
|
|||
|
-- RESIGNATION (WHAT WILL YOU DO) --
WHAT WILL YOU DO
WHEN YOU WON’T FEEL ANYTHING?
AND YOU WILL FEEL EMPTY
LOST IN THIS OCEAN
WHAT WILL YOU DO
WHEN NOTHING
WILL HAVE A HOLD ON YOU?
THAT EVERYTHING WILL SLIP
ON YOU WITHOUT CONSEQUENCE
WHAT WILL YOU DO
WHEN TIME PASSES ANYWAY
AND AGE THE THINGS YOU LOVE
AND AGE THE THINGS YOU LOVE
WHAT WILL YOU DO
THE DAY YOU REALIZE
THAT IT'S REAL,
YOU'VE MISSED OUT
ON ALL YOUR EXISTENCE
WHAT WILL YOU DO
WHEN YOUR LOVED ONES
WON’T COME BACK
AND THAT THEIR FACE WILL NOW
BEGIN TO DISAPPEAR?
WHAT WILL YOU DO
WHEN THE END IS NEAR?
THAT DARKNESS WILL TAKE PLACE
AND THAT YOU WILL REALIZE?
I THINK OUR PATHS DIVERGE
A SEA INTERFERES BETWEEN US
WILL WE FIGHT FOR HIM?
WILL WE FIGHT ?

LEAVING ALL THE SECRETS
04:41
|

|
-- LEAVING ALL THE SECRETS --
IS THIS REAL LIFE?
A DAY AT THE TOP
TO HOLD AGAIN
IS THIS REAL LIFE?
A WELL-ORDERED LIFE
ONCE AGAIN
LEAVING ALL THE SECRETS
AND REALIZE
EVERYTHING HANGS BY A THREAD
AND HAS TO END
FORGET THE FEAR OF THE FUTURE
TO GO FORWARD
ALL THAT IS UNIQUE IS MAGIC
AND TAKE ADVANTAGE
IS THIS REAL LIFE?
AND NOTHING EXCEEDS
MY LIMITS
IS THIS REAL LIFE?
TIME TO GET OLD
AND WISER MAN

THE STORY REMAINS
04:43
|

|
-- THE STORY REMAINS (AS IT LOOKS DIVINE) --
AS IT LOOKS DIVINE
STANDING THERE
TO SEE
THE ARCHITECTURAL RIDDLE
FACE THE WORLD
YOU CAN TAKE IT ALL
THE STONE GOES
THROUGH TIME
BUT THE STORY REMAINS
THE STORY REMAINS
AS IT LOOKS DIVINE
DO NOT DO ANYTHING.
STOP AND SEE
THE IMPACT OF TIME
AND TAKE YOUR BREATH
YOU CAN TAKE IT ALL
THE STONE GOES
THROUGH TIME
BUT THE STORY REMAINS
THE STORY REMAINS
