Stargazer 04:34
Thousand springs ago, a part of me was there Universe is calling, Mirror symmetry Stones point to the stars, Stars point to the stones We’re caught into this amber drop Our lives won’t end but can’t keep on These stones mirror the sky on earth tonight It’s a magic birth It’s a mystic age Read the prophecy Written in the Sky

The Preacher 05:00
A voice calls me in a dream An ancient calling in the howling wind Pale grey dawn over the hills Outside my door the small town sleeps Hypnotized, I feel no scared I know it’s something that gotta be made The time has come, I have to leave I need no baggage for this trip Follow the path, the fathers speak to me Vertigo of shadows in the circle of their dance The Preacher speaks in the Native Tongue He’ll never speak to an heart of stone Skin and bones, long white hair His eyes are black wells deep like hell He strains his arm, open his fist Five small bones he gives to me What is dream? And what is real? In this desert I make a deal. Falling in trance, the fathers dance with me Vertigo of shadows, of the ghost dancers Dance with the dead, holy smoke, beat of drums The preacher rise up, and drive me into the dance. On this higher plain he waited for me Alone in desert for 9 long years A lonely preacher in leather clothes A goatskin flask and a silver cross I’m drowning slowly in these sands Sky is changing, clouds run fast Heavy dark clouds are over me All words were spoken the seed was spread

Walkin’ around in downtown, step by step My head is floating fluffy in the air I don’t care of nothing, the children smile Too much colours shining, too much light A blue whale now swims down in the bus-lane Cars are driven by monkeys and there’s a yellow sky today Loud laughters, clowns dancing An alien barmaid pours me beer Ladies screaming, toads croaking My selling rate comes to a head I walk around in downtown Crawling through the crowd An old man and his lady look Astonished and outraged Loud laughters, clowns dancing An alien barmaid pours me beer Ladies screaming, toads croaking My selling rate comes to a head Loud laughters, pigs snorting Smartly sharks wait for the brunch Belly-dancers, sad minstrels I drink my beer and I watch the show I walk around in downtown, my feet don’t touch the ground My Head is floating free in the morning sounds I don’t care of nothing please buy me a drink And I’ll keep on walking softly with the morning breed Loud laughters, clown dancing The alien barmaid now smiles at me Girls screaming, children singing Outside the window the world pass by Loud laughs, crowd screaming Their voices enter into my head Don’t stop laughing, don’t stop screaming I drink the last beer and I’ll join you

Orange blast in a burning sunset The road is a scar on the skin of the earth Windscreen crashing in a dazzling light But still we ride across the sky Still we ride across the sky Eyes of gold sleeps by my side The taste of life is in my mouth Our skin is cracked by the red dust Sun in Leo reigns in the sky Still we run from dark to light, Orion dogs watch over us No surrender and ready for the flight The Great Hunter rules in the sky Flying over the top of the higher mountains Floating over the forests of a virgin world Looking for the place where the truth is kept Looking for the place where we can be free
5.
Sailing by sight, I drive into a sultry night Stars by my side, gravity chains my thoughts to the ground Sailing by sight, day by day, night after night Hung by your lies, you don’t mind if I’m burning inside Sailing by sight, without a compass, without a light No mercy in your eyes To be with is been like a fight No mercy in your eyes Hanged from your lies Disgust in your eyes Paranoid eyes

The Valley 06:38
You and me and our friends, exploring valleys of green Emerald winter path marked by the warm of the sun Surrounded by evergreen, a slow parade through the ancient oak-trees In the silence, mushrooms singing nursery rhymes of childhood’s days Suddenly into the glade We felt her presence but we weren’t afraid We heard her voice talking through the trees A softly sound blowing in the breeze “Silver Veins was my regal name I’ve been here before the human’s age Man forgot his thoughtful mother Man betrayed his lovely sister Believe in me, these stones can speak Put the right question, don’t waste this trip. Remember me and these rusty pylons These crumbled walls of broken bricks. Grey ruins into the sacred forest Men’s failure lie in eternal rest The Iron Century of man suffering In my maternal embrace has its silent decay”.
7.
Look at me, my face Now whipped by the wind Look these hands, I still can’t believe to what I’ve seen Out of breath, two suns in the Doomsday sunrise A dark cloud has chained the night to the ground When I learned to fly, I felt like god Sat in the cockpit of glass, Swimmin’ in the infinite blue We were looking for the atomic sunrise We were waiting for the Hell to come When I learned to fly I was the king of the World Sittin’ in the cockpit of glass, swimming in the infinite blue Under a leather helmet Pointing at the Sun Riding a Dragonfly Between the sea and sky
8.
Sleeping wet on summer afternoon Bited by mosquitoes, I had a dream The Air Cavalry was riding above the beach And we were fighting against the Japaneses
