Tiredness

Just wait another time
Don’t wait another year
Don’t wait until there will be no one
to help you getting out of here
Will I reclaim the right
To drown into your tears
When everyone is messing around
When everything is out of reach
Just call your friends and talk
When no ones gives a damn
Don’t wait until there will be no one
To help you getting out of here
I’ll wait another time
I’ll wait another year
But I’m not so sure I can be there
to help us getting out of this
So tired to be sad for our kind
This net of certainties has begun to crack and crumble
So tired to feel bad for our kind
Don’t have the certitude that we’re gonna last forever
So tired to be jaded and harsh
It’s hard not to be overtaken by guilt and pressure
So tired to be searching a way
Don’t let the selfishness become the last thing that will defines us

I feel so sorry in the end about the way we’re taking
There is a little chance to stop the slaughter before it’s too late
It’s not unfair, it’s not a game and now the time is running
But we must share a simple thought about this global situation
Can’t say they didn’t warn you all about this global warming
It’s been some forty fucking years of warning from the science community
It wasn’t a hoax, it wasn’t a joke but no one here is guilty
If there is a story to be told when all is blurred and falling
Just try to sleep at night
And try to let it go
When everyone’s talking and talking and talking for nothing
I’m tired of this useless talks but I don’t think it’s your fault
But there is a bunch of solutions in front of you
Lost in a spiral of guilt and destruction
I feel so sorry, sorry for you
And now I wish you’d find another breath of life
Lost in a radical struggle to save it all
I feel so sorry, sorry for you
And now I hope you’d find another breath of life

Incertitude

I’m lost in my thoughts and there’s no way to stop them
It feels like a rumble inside
I feel so strange with no reason
I don’t like to feel that numb and I’m not there at all
All my emotions are drown in a silence that drives all the passions away
Kind of stuck in a wave of distortion
It’s frozen inside and I’m so far away
I just walk through the night
But the answer is lost inside of me
I just walk through a past that I rehash it’s getting me nowhere
But I’m still running
I tended to wallow in sadness for so long
A shell for a human of glass
All these things are now flowing through me
And I’m learning so hard to let them pass away
Showing no fear to be cool and pristine
Kind of stuck in a confidence lack
All these things are now starting to fade
And I’m learning so hard to let them pass away
I’ve found a reason to stop overthinking
It runs in my mind but it doesn’t bother me now
I’ve found a reason to stop overthinking
It runs in my mind but it doesn’t bother me
I just walk through the night
But the answer is lost inside of me
I just walk through a past that I rehash it’s getting me nowhere I’m still here
I just walk for the same old reason that keeps me sane for a while
Just find a reason to stop overthinking
It runs in my mind but it doesn’t bother me now
Is there a reason to stop overthinking
It runs in my mind but it doesn’t bother me now
I’ve found a reason to stop overthinking
It runs in my mind but it doesn’t bother me now
There is no reason to stop overthinking
It runs in my mind but it doesn’t bother me now

Teatime on Io

I can see the stars into your eyes
I can see your spacecraft on the field
Take your helmet off your head and smile
Falling on your knees
Hope you’ve brought enough food for the travel
Hope you’ve taken all that you would need
A ride across the solar system was all you’ve ever dreamed
I don’t want to hold you back and say don’t forget me
Staying on my own until the day you’d come to me
Searching on and on while sailing on the solar winds
Flying to Jupiter’s moon and coming back for teatime with me
Is there a limit to our human greed
Is there a thing we don’t want to possess
The boundaries of our universe are not
I’m glad we’re stuck down here
Is our life on earth not satisfying
Is there a need to spoil another world
If there a pride for us to trash the space
I’m glad we’re stuck in here
I don’t want to hold you back and say don’t forget me
Staying on my own until the day you’d come to me
Searching on and on while sailing on the solar winds
Flying to Jupiter’s moon and coming back to teatime with me
I don’t want to hold you back and say don’t forget me
Staying on my own until the day you’d come to me
Searching on and on while sailing on the solar winds
Staying on your own above a world I’ll never see
I don’t want to hold you back and say don’t forget me
Flying to Jupiter’s moon and coming back to teatime with me

My heart is so sad
My eyes are so dry
Hope is not an option but I just do my best
I can’t be the one to save you
From your toxic thoughts
I can’t be the one who saves
This world that falls apart
So we try and try again
I solitude I wrap myself
Slowly coming back to change
I can’t be the one to save this world
And be the same again
Your mind is so bright
Your eyes are so wide
You try to be wise, you try to do your best
You can be the one who says
This world is worth the try
You can’t be the one
Who save this world that falls apart
So we try and try again
In solitude I wrap myself
Slowly coming back to life
I can’t be the one to save this world
And be the same again
Silence is so loud
Moonlight is too thin
I miss the rainfalls but I must let it go
I can be the one who says
This world is better with you
I can be the one to hold your hand
Just for the needed time
So we try and and try again
In solitude I wrap myself
Slowly coming back to life
I can’t be the one to save this world
And be the same again

Letters for Later

Help me
Help me be a wise man and hold my hand for a while
Save me
Save me from this black hole inside my chest
This is my fight
I can do the talking
I can stay for a while
I can let the lights on
I could stay by your side
I can read you stories
We would pick on your books
I can hunt the monsters crawling under your bed
We can make a hut and we can make it wide
So you can sleep inside and have a restful night
So bring up all your blanks
I’ve made up room for them
I’ll stay behind the door
Waiting until you sleep
But let me stay up late at night I need to write a letter
To say how much I’m proud of you and glad to be your father
Slow the sand of time and let me greet the aging smile smile I’m wearing
We have time to spend and love to give and hugs to share
I’ve lost a lot of my fears
Since you were born
I try to be a better man
But I don’t have much time left before you become a man
And I don’t have so much time before you think I’m a fool
I promise to do my best
I promise to be patient
I promise to deal with my angers and try to love me too
But let me stay up late at night I need to write a letter
To say how much I’m proud of you and glad to be your father
Slow the sand of time and let me greet the aging smile smile I’m wearing
We have time to spend and love to give and hugs to share

How can I find a way to ease the pain
Can I overcome my fears
Can I let them go away
How can I find a way to act again
When the sorrow comes
When there’s no way out of here
How can I carry on without distress
Can I understand my doubts
Can I find a way to be myself
How can I realize I’m not that sad
When the time has come
To accept myself
Many years have come and passed
The way I look into your eyes is not the same
The has come to see what’s going on
About that human being I used to know
That’s what I thought
Forty years have come by now
The way I look into the past is not the same
The time has come to say a little words
And for the human beings that change my life
I raise my glass and this is your night
The way that you looked at me all that time
The way that you carry me all this time
The moments we had are so precious now
While we sing we are one
How can I change the world for another one
Can I override my dread
Can I feel free to act
How can I realize I’m not that weak
To be part again of this common path
Many years have come and passed
The way I look into your eyes is not the same
The time has come to see what’s going on
About that human being I used to know
That’s what I thought
(forty?) Many years have come by now
The way I look into the past is not the same
The time has come to say a little words
And for the human beings that change my life
I raise my glass and this is your night
The way that you looked at me all that time
The way that you carry me all this time
The moments we had are so precious now
While we sing we are one
