You fool me
You didn't understand
The answers I gave you
The lesson I learned
You fake it
You fake it again
Despite all my efforts
Despite my attempts
You fool me
I'm under your spell
As long as you hold me
As long as it lasts
You fake it
you fake it again
Despite all these years
Despite the bitter end
When all is said and done
There is nothing left to lose
When all is said and done
There is nothing left
There is nothing left to lose
You fool me
I'm under your spell
As long as you hold me
I know it will last
You have me
you have me there again
despite all these meanings
my words can never tell
When all is said and done
There is nothing left to lose
When all is said and done
There is nothing left
There is nothing left to lose

There was a time
We used to play
Dangerous games
Until the early morning hours
When we were young
Back in the days
We used to get drunk
To ease the pain
Suburbs slept as we’d drive
all alone in parking lots
we saved our lives.
There was a time
a black winter day
I asked you to stay
until the early morning hours
Underneath the same sky
Even though we were apart
You saved my life
Blue lilacs
Dancing fireflies
We were nothing but a dream
Sleepers in a waiting room
Chaos in bloom
Blue lilacs
Dancing fireflies
We were nothing but a dream
Naked in a stranger’s womb
Chaos in bloom
Underneath the same sky
Even though we were apart
You saved my life
Blue lilacs
Dancing fireflies
We were nothing but a dream
Sleepers in a waiting room
Chaos in bloom

Is there something wrong with me?
Missing pieces
Selfish dreams
You said my name
I walked on by
I’m far from here a thousand miles
Who we are is what we do
Ask the dust for answers
There is nothing left unsaid
All the mystery is gone and dead
Who we are is what we do
Ask the dust for answers
Your hand in mine
Unconscious all the time
Black turns to grey
I hope there is another way
Your hand in mine
Unconscious all the time
Black turns to grey
I hope there is another way
Just keep breathing
All we have to do is
Just keep breathing
Just keep breathing
All we have to do is
Just keep breathing

Wake up
To a beam of light
Move on
Head up to the sun
Miles out
You gave me wildflowers
This ghost is gone for good
Rise up
freed from all desires
Dream on
Head up to the sky
Light up
You gave me wildflowers
This ghost is gone for good
Gotta get away
Our time is up
Find a better way
Don’t give a fuck
All we’re gonna get is nothing more than this
Wake up
there’s no other life
Move on
no place is too far
Light up
You gave me wildflowers
This ghost is gone for good
Gotta get away
Our time is up
Find a better way
Don’t give a fuck
All we’re gonna get is nothing more than this
Whatever comes our way
We are our luck
Another brand new day is coming up
All we’re gonna get is just for us to see
Rise up
Freed from all desires
Dream on

We could have everything

We'll never get back what we’ve lost
the countless paths we don’t cross
do my eyes deceive me?
the devil is on his way
today I'll try to be fine,
rewrite my own storyline,
focus on good feelings
play a brand new song
‘cause we could have it all
We could have everything
on and on
and we could share a dream
but we got stuck
in between
let me in
or leave me out
we could have everything
hear me now
let me in
or leave me out
We'll never go back to the start
now everything's falling apart
do my eyes deceive me?
I hope I won't go broke
I’m trying really hard to be fine
rewrite my own storyline
let go of bad thinking
play a brand new song
‘cause we could have it all
We could have everything
on and on
and we could share a dream
but we got stuck
in between
let me in
or leave me out
We could have everything
hear me now
let me in
or leave me out
we could have everything
We could be anything.

The morning after
The night before
Is what you want what you need?
She spoke to me gently
Don't you think you miss the point?
Calm down and listen
You already know
You already know
There is nothing we can do
The morning after
Is there something we should have known
The night before
Is what we got what we deserve?
She kissed me gently
Don't you think we’ve reached the point?
Lay down your head now
You already know
You already know
There is nothing we can do
The morning after
Is there something we should have known
The night before
The morning after
The night before
We already know
We all already know

Forget about today
the sun goes down and slips away
We'll spend the night to come
As the last one
the last
We'll order at the street food truck
Lobster rolls
Blue crab cakes
We'll wait until the air gets us
Ice cold beers
on moonlit sand
Promises are easy to make
easy to break, to break
Forget about today
Close your eyes and rest
We'll wait until the sunrise
for the last time
The last
Promises are easy to make
Easy to break, to break
And after all these years
quietly we fade away
I never thought it would end here
Oh I wish that we could stay
Promises are easy to make
Easy to break, to break

What lies inside your heart?
The pale blue sky, the sea
Why don't we try to live?
We walk alone
Eyes open wide
Pretending all the time
We lie and we lie
Hurry up
This fire burns so quickly
Walk away
Hush now
It's ok
It's ok
What lies inside your soul?
Behind that secret door
Dark stars and black holes
and black holes
Hurry up
This fire burns so quickly
Walk away
You can’t go back now
It's ok
It's ok
Find shelter from the pain
Hide away
when all falls to pieces
Take shelter from insane
‘cause everything
is falling to pieces
What lies inside your soul?
There’s a blue sky underneath
dark stars and black holes
and black holes
Hurry up
This fire burns so quickly
Walk away
There’s no go back now
It's ok
It's ok
Find shelter from the pain
Hide away
when all falls to pieces
Take shelter from insane
‘cause everything
is falling to pieces

Don't be afraid to let go
To face your fears
To search for more
To ask for love
There is more than meets the eyes
Lose your way
to find yourself
To feel alive
Do it for me
My love
Do it for me
My love
Never look back
and keep moving forward
Take your time and seize the day
Cherish the moment
Live every hour
I’ve never learned to do the same
I’ve never learned to do the same
Do it for me
My love
Do it for me
My love
Never look back
and keep moving forward
Take your time and seize the day
Cherish the moment
Live every hour
I’ve never learned to do the same
Never look back
and keep moving forward
backward is just yesterday
Cherish the moment
Live every hour
and teach me how to do it myself
I’ve never learned to do the same, my love
you teach me how to do it myself, my love

Shine on
Bright star
Up into the sky
When all is dark
Shine on
Above the rooftops
Upon the streets
While the city sleeps
Shine on
Guide me through a track so long forgotten
Take me to the place where I belong
I'm trying to come back
I'm trying to come back to you
Shine on
Bright star
Carry me home
Through the nighttime path
Shine on…
And if love was enough
I could
forget about the fear
And choose
to try again
to try one more time
Bright star
could you spread your light
where all is dark?
Shine on…
And if love was enough
I could
forget about the world
And choose
to try again
to try one more time
Shine on
Bright star
Up into the sky
When all is dark
Shine on
Above the rooftops
Upon the streets
While the city sleeps

There's a house by the sea
It is waiting for me
The walls are painted light blue
The doors are hand carved wood
So many places
So little time
So many faces
I'm mesmerized
Go out and try to face the day
There's a house built for me
Where the ocean meets the sea
So many places
So little time
So many faces
I'm mesmerized
Go out and try to face the day
Go out and face the day
There's a house by the sea
and it’s waiting for me
So many places
So little time
So many faces
I'm mesmerized
Go out and try to face the day
Go out and face the day

El matador alegre Verona, Italy
A painter meets a music producer/multi-instrumentalist.
They share ideas, they start writing
songs together.
They want to make music and lyrics blend like watercolors on paper.
They paint songs full of life, tinted with melancholy and memories.
