AUTUMNAL LYRICS

1. A Tear From A Beast

A shy bird over a tree…
A black crow dismembering him…
A child playing with stones…
And a train smashing his bones…
How can you cut this wire,
If you only nail your knife?
Step by step you are destroying your kids…
Shoot and shoot them before they heal.

With hatred, now, you watch the grass growing old.
Follow me, my angel, but don’t step where I fall.
A flash, a crash, waking up, my angel, cause it is time of death…

A white butterfly flies over these fields…
A black cloud poisoning him…
This rain under I roam…
Is beginning to burn with its cold…
How can you cut this wire,
If you only nail your knife?

With hatred, now, you watch the grass growing old.
Follow me, my angel, but don’t step where I fall.
A flash, a crash, waking up, my angel, cause it is time of death…

Please, turn off these flames,
Scream all I am saying, when these bodies are lost…
For me, they rest in their graves,
Now all I can play is to learn to love…

Drink from me and don’t you give them now…
Don’t you throw it down because it’s all my flesh…
Leave me, don’t you look back home…
You must break their bones, now you are a Man…

2. One Step... And The Rest Of Our Lives

Just one step… one and three since I left…
All my skin is wrinkled like a used napkin,
An empty map…

One, one step… one, and another one,
I cross this wet street… listening this useless laugh
In my neck… and in my feet…

Over my eyes, all my sweat burns all my skin
My hair is on end, my head is exhausted…
My broken shoes…

Here I stand, paralyzed, and I feel the time,
I cannot fight… It passed away…
And that what’s left, for the rest of our life…
(And here I stand… almost paralyzed, for the rest of my life…)

Just the same step… one and a shit in my sole…
From a dog she abandoned… eating from streets…
It has three feet…

One, one step… one, and another one,
I cross this wet street… listening this useless laugh
In my neck… and in my feet…

Here I stand, paralyzed, and I feel the time,
I cannot fight… It passed away… (in the other’s mind)
And that what’s left, for the rest of our life…
(And here I stand… almost paralyzed, for the rest of my life…)

I am tired of changing shirts… when it strangles me…
I don’t know how to release the neck…
I am fed up with tearing shirts… when I get rid of them…
As if I was cutting the surface to breathe…
I am furious for… the clouds go away…
I am counting full moons… that it left me here…
Waiting for a mouth to mouth… of Lucifer…
I cannot catch the butterfly… to make her mine…
I cannot fly… touching land…
I cannot breath… the open air…
There is a cloud… from bile smoke…
It comes from your lips... your last cigar…

Cockroaches go out to breath…
When the smoke of her cigar…
Already does not leave air inside…
Like my dreams…

Here I stand, paralyzed, and I feel the time,
I cannot fight… It passed away… (in the other’s mind)
And that what’s left, for the rest of our life…
(And here I stand… almost paralyzed, for the rest of my life…)

3. The Head Of The Worm

Now so much saliva, so little role…
So little time and too much to lose…
Vinegar polished masks…
And poison in the viscera…
Puncture the skin of all…
Have no blood…
And without that red ink…
The future is in vain…
Yesterday is not but the language to suffer…
The jugular is opened in two holes…
Through one the wine escapes…
For other one the pleasure…
For once I felt inside…
I don’t remember the reason of…
But I know I must do… I must do it…
(For once I felt growing into your fields…)

The useless fighting with my devils…
No more war to learn…
As the mallows sleeps in my hair…
In my disclosed chest…

And even in the nails grows the hair…
And even in the guts cuts the ice…

I thought that I could finally born…
That I could deceive the oldness…
I begged not to have to return to win…
At the head of the worm…
Trying to drink me…
Blackened mother one day…
I will own you…

4. Man's Life Is The Wolf's Death

I live all alone leaving minutes off
I won’t walk … I travel thinking about
me changing something out of this, but
this exists before you and me swim in this mud.

But I am wrong again,
one in a million of solitudes…
I can’t climb my stairs,
Trapped by the heaviest mask…
I won’t spread my chest,
Pumping between anger and lust…
I pray The Lord to rest,
but my heart still beats…

I have become to feel so weird so
far, so strange in this viscous life…
Roots over me drowning, choking
Life, I must dry, fall and feed the grass before I burn.

But I am wrong again…
I can’t climb my stairs…
I won’t spread my chest….
But my heart still beats…

Now, that I am all alone… I know that I’ve always been, I will always be… I don’t pretend otherwise.

I am getting old, and something I don’t know
Sucks my sap, consumes my old smile…
An immortal hell with demons that feed on dull years
A life, that is death, doesn’t end if you don’t breathe…
I look back and the road seems so curved and rough,
Before me all is straight….

I thrashed you, you loved me… but I owned my reason…
Over and over… I tried to conceal….
What in me should be less than a simple fear…
Older and colder… we just approach to fall…

5. Resigned To Be Lived

Hey you, my loser son,
You see your sins if you are alone,
Would you need to walk on your own?

When there is no movement here,
The future seems to disappear
Won’t you ever feel the strings… of love?

You wait and I am cold,
Frozen like a winter storm.
Do I really stay so lost?

I catch your generous smile,
While I hide along my trail
Turn down these walls I’ve built… with bad blood…

I slide along these rails I drew…
cause I fear my voice on you…

I trust that my being will be safe in my old shell…
Where the toll is so pricey that you cannot pay…
I would want to believe that this bad dream
Wasn’t true… but my mind… but my mind…

I slide along these streets like meat…
Crawling into a crusher meat…
I cannot love anymore… with threads severed
My figure sculpts behind the cross…. Because now I loved it all.

I cannot buy to you the whole world… there is nothing more meager
There is no greater contempt… because, now, I gave it all.

I cannot drink from your cup… there is no only one
There is too much for three times… because, now, now I choked.

Hey you, my useless son…

6. The Storm Remains The Same

I stood, I grabbed the bed,
with one hand and lifted it…
above our heads, she fell,
down from above the mattress…

I hit the shelf and jumped
From the wall crashing into the ground…
And scattering a dozen books,
She got up and left the room…

The storm remains… The storm remains…
The storm remains… The storm remains… The same…

I embed a fist on the door,
And knuckles dug into the wood…
I opened it… but she wouldn’t be anymore.

The storm remains… The storm remains…
The storm remains… The storm remains… The same…

I went back, I leaned against the wall,
With the whole back…
I slipped and fell to the ground,
Slowly, fetal pose, and I cried ...

The storm remains… The storm remains… The same…

7. Don't Leave Me Now

[originally by Supertramp]

8. Father's Will

Time will come,
For you to understand,
The light is closer,
And I'll be there again.

You lift me above myself,
Blinded by this fury,
I propose and you dispose
While Death assumes his role.

The tremble of my soul,
Shows me I'm the exception,
Broken by your words,
Awaiting some kind of passion.

Lead me to your path,
Show me all is done.
Gone, in time.
No one cares, and you falling down...

Lead me to your path,
Father's will erased,
I keep falling down...
