Written on the walls A nomad floating to the sun Written on the walls My horns, wild crown Written on the walls Half man half soul Written on the walls Biform Biform I can feel the beat I can feel the beast Inside my head I was punished again Inside my head I'm human Written on the walls A Man, a horse Written on the walls As a whole he goes I can feel the beat I can feel the beast Inside my head I was punished again Inside my head I'm human Written on the walls Written on the walls Biform Biform

Words dominate my mind Hallucination sounds At night they ride my dreams And draw my destiny Siren's lips Deep inside Siren's lips Kiss me in the night Words will command your world And blow your mind indeed Working behind your dreams A phantom factory Siren's lips Deep inside Siren's lips Kiss me in the night Searching beyond the words The shadow of my dreams Siren's lips Deep inside Siren's lips Kiss me in the night

Cry With You 02:43
We are losing your magic, baby Speak your language! Tell me why? I'll take your hand No matter your time I make mistakes with days Dreams, futures And the nights I'll take your hand No matter... We love you It's a lie we don't have more time I'll cry with you I'll cry with you I'll cry with you I'll cry with you Heaven is an animal And the spheres creatures High Put everything in a fantasy, baby It will be limited Anyhow Destroy the dream And human, goodbye I'll cry with you I'll cry with you I'll cry with you I'll cry with you We are losing your magic, baby Speak your language! Tell me why?

Sphinx 02:18
It's understood There is something more You are back again In silent games With the Sphinx's eyes I can't see no more Let's take a ride To the dreamer's land Go inside the door My hand is a claw! With the Sphinx's eyes I can't see no more Close your eyes Like midnight fools On a bridge you walk Dried sun outside With the Sphinx's eyes I can't see no more I can't see no more I can't see no more I can't see no more

The book is on my back Across the southern path Visions in her eyes Growing deep inside No place to go No rush, ocean is time Faces in the sky Strange creatures in the night I see the red moon falls I see the red moon falls A bird three times will die So with blood we got to fight I see faces in the sky With a crown direct to the sun No place to go Ocean is all around As good animals we learn to talk We are the perfect sons I see the red moon falls I see the red moon falls Red moon falls Red moon falls Red moon

Dead Summer 03:24
In the summer when the clouds are grey Upside down, you can't explain Read my thoughts upon your face Blind noises beautiful and strange The gap is back and it comes to me Silver knife pushing back my head Paralyzing in my bed Until the night I can only wait Dead summer Cold down as my heart down there Dead summer Cold down as my heart down there Dead summer All of this seems to be so far way We just wandered through the rain Read my lips when they say Bloody noises around my neck Dead summer Cold down as my heart down there Dead summer Cold down as my heart down there Dead summer

Inside an electric storm Your hair is a lighting crown Dance and move all around Away from heaven's eyes Away from heaven's eyes Away from heaven's eyes I walk on desert stones My feet burn with the ground Keep my shouts in my mind Away from heaven's eyes Away from heaven's eyes Away from heaven's eyes In a dream, I saw the shore So close my hand touched the sand In a dream, I saw the shore So close my feet touched the sand Away from heaven's eyes

I'm on a helicopter ride through Vietnam. I'm the Leicester Square Kid I'm superman. I'm putting weight for the Oscar. Man gonna Get through anyway I can. Everywhere everyone is red and green. I gotta lust for glory and a tape machine. I'm living out Frank Coppola's dreams. Outta my mind I'm feelin' mean. I'm Nuremberg Stepper blowin' wets away. I gotta headful of Hendrix, I'm feelin' OK. I'm a late night thriller, I'm miss La Ray. Outta my mind Can I come to play? Hey hey hey we're in the movie. I feel up and I feel groovy. Let's go out and get some of that. Gimme gimme gimme some Russian Roulette. La la la.... I said hey.

Around 02:34
Get slowly to the ground I can feel you being around From the sky, you fall into the dream, A bath of light In circles, you turned my head. So deep, inside the breath. From the dark, you come into the dream, A crash of a light You dance, round and round. Shot triggers in my hands To the fields you re running far So deep, inside the breath You stay... Slowly in the fire I can feel you being around You stay... Slowly in the fire From the sky, you fall around

Magnets 03:30
The magnets of the sun Nobody stays so close When it crashes into your soul Last star is crossing roads It's shinning on a rock Inside it moves so slow In the darkness it waits for you I can see your love Into the magnets I can see your love Into the fragments The magnets of the sun Attraction to the raw Nobody stays so close When it crashes into your soul I can see your love Into the magnets I can see your love Into the fragments I can see your love Into the magnets I can see your love Into the fragments

I'm falling down from the sky Under the seas Under the stars And the Regals know As a roman coin Even them will fall In my gutter I'm falling down from the sky Under the seas Under the stars I can dry your mind I can dry your mind I can dry your mind

This song is for everybody Thousand millions days My love burns in the fire And here we swim in flames It's always strange To cross the flaming waves The sand where there was water The sun has turned to red We float around black matter The dust covers your name It's always strange To cross the flaming waves Always xx signs inside a cave It's always strange To cross the flaming waves Always xx signs inside a cave
