All gone (27-11-2007)

They were so young,
They were so pure
They had no illness
Nothing that needed a cure.

But now they've gone
They've left us here
and all our lives
seem suddenly so bare.

Without a warning
Without a clue
They disappeared
We feel so blue.

Yet live we should
Though left behind
And keep them alive
Forever in our mind.

Bitch (22-11-2007)

Oh yes, I take pleasure in inflicting pain,
Where before I only looked at you with disdain.
Maybe cos vengeance is tasting sweet
And eating it cold, it's what I need.

Sometimes I wonder where love has gone
It seems my heart is made of stone
Yet from the rock, blood oozes out
And breaking the silence, I start to shout.

I've been too good, I've been too fair
Was putty in your hands, lost in despair.
But now I've learnt, at own expense
I'll be a bitch and take revenge.

Blank (20-11-2007)

Guilt, panic
My work is piling
I'm going manic.

Tired, spent
I'm laying here
Not sad nor content.

Blank, numb
To sweet sleep
I'll soon succumb.

Eyes (18-11-2007)

I know you're there
Maybe you care?

Your watchful eyes
Seem looking for lies

Yet here I'm bare
For everyone to stare

I shouldn't have said
What life I've led.

Some men hurl abuse
Others are a muse.

Which one will you be?
Agony or harmony?

Thinking (17-11-2007)

Stop it now, it's really useless,
Will not help you in the end
Just ignore all those guilt feelings,
Though in fact I understand

That it's impossible to stop thinking
It's so difficult to go numb
Yet you're just inflicting agony
When to joy you could succumb.

All I want is some affection,
Guess it's also what you need
Finish all these painful ramblings
Heart's direction you should heed.

Game over (15-10-2007)

I'm angry and livid
I'm feeling insane
I hate what you're doing
Just to win this game.

It's all somehow sordid
You're cheating to win
Asking for compassion
Renouncing your sin.

I don't want to go back
I love you no more
You can still try to hurt me
To even the score.

Yet here I am staying
Not running for cover
The play may continue
But for me, it's game over.

Sposato (13-11-2007)

Avevo giurato di mai fare male
Ad una moglie che sta ad aspettare
Che suo marito ritorni da lei
Da viaggi di lavoro in citta' Europei.

Ma averti vicino con me, qui accanto
Parlando, ridendo, sembrava un incanto
Ci siamo baciati e poi abbracciati
E poi sulla spiaggia ci siamo amati.

Ma sei un bastardo o solo testardo?
Perche c'hai provato ed io accettato?
Migliaia di ragioni, la sorte, il fato
Ma non cambia il fatto, che tu sei sposato.
