The taste of my tears,
Still pouring on a world that falls apart.
So many fears and questions crowd my heart,
Now that a flesh coming from the past
Became a candle dying in my hand.
No way, no path to follow, into this fog I delve…
Days bygone lost inside my head,
Fingers slowly draw a face: it's already vanishing.
Slide my way through this dark charade,
Chasing starlight in the shades.
Now take my hand here in this darkness,
And paint it with your light:
I'm trying to find what lies behind…
My past…my memories…
I see all growing dim, drowned in a haze of gray.
I feel something devours my history.
Just losing grip on my senses,
On fine ropes I'm balancing,
Playing hide and seek with time and reality.
A mind forged reverie? I see hangin' memories,
Lying everywhere my eyes can reach,
But when I look back
There's just more black inside the black.
Days bygone lost inside my head,
Fingers slowly draw a face: it's already vanishing.
Slide my way through this dark charade,
Chasing starlight in the shades.
Breath, eyes and memory as one,
Time still going back and forth…
Shards of a life I once had:
Bring them together to trace the tale…
