Soulmates over anything Dreamers over anything Let the feelings talk more than anything A gate to the unspeakable things, The secrets draped with a cape A cure for the illness During all these years On the field of violence Reaching for a place on earth If you're looking for a soul clan You can become one of us Desire sharp as a knife Close to the throat of What seems too far Remove the tape from our mouths and cure the poison stuck in the silence

Young Chief 03:14
Tell me about the future of our stories now That I’m driving at lightspeed to the darkest corridor Don’t stop the game We ‘re still running away the pain I’m quite the same as The one who sneaks out on Mondays So give me a call , knock on the door , wait on the floor let’s climb the castle, fight the monster, find and free the princess. Once upon a time there was a young chief Who played police, chased thieves, the world as his own playfield. Stories of success, the money, happiness. Climb the castle, fight the monster, find and free the princess. Run and jump Up and down This is what we need if we want to feel alive Either you’re a boy or you’re a man As they say. The 27 club is behind us I press snooze slow down time Always the same tune: save money, buy a house and abduce… The life we need, the one we choose Climbing castles, fighting monsters : breaking rules Once upon a time there was a young chief Who played police, chased thieves, the world as his own playfield. Stories of success, the money, happiness. Climb the castle, fight the monster, find and free the princess. Run and jump Up and down This is what we need if we want to feel alive We didn’t know monsters We didn’t know failures Scourges slipped on us but We can’t wait to become these tormented people Who threw their axes for bank notes Give me back my sword so i can Smite my million troubles Once upon a time there was a young chief Who played police, chased thieves, the world as his own playfield. Stories of success, the money, happiness. Climb the castle, fight the monster, find and free the princess. Run and jump Up and down This is what we need if we want to feel alive Once upon a time there was a young chief

Fearless 03:39
Another day under the threat of a possible thunder We do deal each day, another 24 hours in a cage of lions We do deal each day, another round Fearing death Are we gonna spend our lives Fearing death, oh Are we gonna live the rest of our lives Fearing death, oh Are we gonna spend our lives Fearing death, oh Are we gonna live the rest of our lives Fearing death, oh Another year after crisis It shouldn’t last longer He can’t stop looking over his own shoulder Afraid to end up six feet under How do you intend to change the world Turn it into a heaven If you’re fearing death, oh Leave the shelter It’s time to move on and see Look beyond the mirror, who do you wanna be Jump off the bridge, swim against the current It’s up to you to write your own way to the end Leave the shelter, it’s time Don’t miss on your life Jump off the bridge, swim against the current We’re not gonna spend our lives Fearing death, oh We’re not gonna live the rest of our lives Fearing death, oh We’re not gonna spend our lives Fearing death, oh We’re not gonna live the rest of our lives Fearing death, oh

Get Up Oh yes it could be long to learn how to dance between ups and downs No matter the wins or losses, this is all about the fights To the me lost in time - “Hear my voice” To the me lost in his mind - “Let me guide you” To the me quiet and tied up - “You’ll find a light” To the me hearing that : It seems like a thousand years could pass If we don’t step aside the doors will always be closed I know time goes by so fast I know we can get lost, alone outside Walking torches thrown into the night But don’t be afraid cause we are right ways' dissidents To the me lost in time - “Hear my voice” To the me lost in his mind - “Let me guide you” To the me quiet and tied up - “You’ll find a light” To the me hearing that : It seems like a thousand years could pass If we don’t step aside the doors will always be closed

Like a whisper A magic trick on a child It took a second You disappeared from my sight Left me blind for a while Dance with the fire ‘til the burn reaches my soul Tears off the layers ‘til it’s out of control Like a deadly ritual Blow on the embers Run in the sand Walk the desert Swim in the mud Finally feel that The thunder loses thickness over time Soon you should be ready for the light When the vultures started to consume my brain I wake stronger. I will cover the stains Of my story dryin’ onna page Sooner or later I will rise from the grave Scars are reminders And I remember the way to escape your grip For highs and lows Even if you know That maybe you’ll be hurt again But it’s the only way

The Fire 03:04
How to smile when you’re trapped in the fire ? Tell me what’s the point of sowing seeds while they’re just pissing on the trees with gasoline We’re flints for the fire, walking disasters, lost in the mouth of monsters Keep smiling, acting like everybody is at a party We’re good at learning how to smile, trapped in the fire How to smile when you’re trapped in the fire ? I can look away but still feel the heat I can cover my ears but it won’t mute their bullshit Tell me how I’m supposed to live if my whole world fits into a black screen My future is melting, we’re getting the signal I better start running I can hear the crackle but my legs are standing still There’s a river running down the curves of my face But don’t worry the fire will dry it out Pull up my cheeks with my fingers Raise my eyebrows It’s a salty smile when you’re trapped in the fire How to smile when you’re trapped in the fire ? ‘Everyone points at the mountain that’s burning but look in another direction oh come on Let’s face the fire What is after the embers ? Hope that the smile will draw itself on a quiet face

Jet Stream 03:18
Everybody’s laughing Quickly they’re becoming smaller Do you know what the truth is ? It’s what I’m afraid of not seeing you anymore : This is an S.O.S I’m struggling to get by Trying not to listen the sirens’ song that wanna get me On another shore That will be for sure Annoying Jet Stream drags me deep in the ocean « Control your thoughts, your emotions now » Finally I will make it But only thanks to a life-buoy That maybe one day will break I have to become This man over the sea A keeper, an Island Jet Stream drags me deep in the ocean « Control your thoughts, your emotions now » Jet Stream drags me deep in the ocean But I’m sure I will slip through the waves now

Out of Time 03:34
It’s time to follow The signs, the evidence The chase has turned bad We’re at the end of the lane Faster than we should Highway on the wrong side Science fiction crossed the road Facing the wall We’re out of time Out of time Out of time We’re out of time Out of time The clock is ticking (Close to midnight) Turn on your TV (Hands and feet tied) Many voices, many lies Many tears, many sounds Will bring you down Feed your monster with ads To make you blind We’re out of time Out of time Out of time We’re out of time Out of time

Ghost Inside 03:52
I am a wild animal sleeping in your garden Waiting for the night to slowly scratch at your door I am a spark, will I light the way, or ignite the oil? It’s up to you to embrace the ghost inside. I feel you’ll always be by my side But your little tricks don’t make me laugh anymore Enough is enough Stop playing tough Come on, light a match But there's no coming back No, I'm not like that The ghost inside is nothing but the reflection of my dark side Now I know I have to take it into my arms So come closer, so come closer So come closer Take me higher, take me higher I am the ghost inside The ghost inside is nothing but the reflection of my dark side Now I know I have to take it into my arms So come closer Come closer

We crossed the youth with passion and strength, Keeping our sailors during thunderstorms Some left, others came. Schism and birth, We hold still, writing page by page. We are witnesses of our age There are many beautiful things left But few remain Nothing is immutable The journey gets longer, some of us are tired The picture seems blurry and the memories lie Sixteen years from now, we’re gonna look back the things we missed, the things we tried We’re only halfway through the ride

Gasoline 04:10
Keep your eyes up to the sky As you feel it fall apart We are kings of a kingdom, built in the sand Gasoline, ah Gasoline, ah Plastic island, we bear the guilt of others (Not better, nor worst) Ticking time bombs, the clock is running against us (We’re not better, nor worse) We all do, we all do our best to keep what we've got Pain won't tear us apart The level gets higher Our home is on fire And a “like” won’t change it (Not better, nor worse) Bury the evidence, send them to conquer outer space. (We’re not better, nor worse) Please don’t hit me, I don’t know what I have done Please believe me, I will hold the spill of gasoline, ah Please don’t hit me, I don’t know what I have done Please believe me, I will hold the spill of gasoline, ah Time only goes forward Rewind button’s broken But tears won’t help us Will the seas turn into dark waters? Sky into a broken shelter? Will we be the dam? We won’t be the last ones We could rid the offspring from gasoline, ah
