KINGCROW LYRICS

1. Friendship

[Music: D. Cafolla, Lyrics: M. Gelsomini, D. Cafolla]

[Voices:]
Many years ago when this man was a child
Alan was his only friend, the shining of a life
All seems quiet but time passes by
And the thoughtless days of youth just fade in the night...

2. The Project

[Music: D. Cafolla, Lyrics: M. Gelsomini]

[Jason:]

I found a secret hidden in dark
Something that no one knows
A revelation to my eyes
Words I can't understand inside it

What does it mean?
What does it hide?
The Federation's job is clearer now...
I can see the plot, it's laying down...
And I feel dismayed...

I have to spread the news
This plan must come to nothing
I have to spread the news
The project must be halted

Life evolution out of control
No more a human birth
In a society so produced
Perfect and working for a sole end

Taking the right
Rejecting the wrong
The Federation's job is clearer now...
I can see the plot, it's laying down...
And I feel dismayed...

I have to spread the news
This plan must come to nothing
I have to spread the news
The project must be halted

3. Temptation

[Instrumental]

4. Never Say Die

[Music: D. Cafolla, Lyrics: M. Gelsomini]

[Jason:]

Mankind...
There's a menace that hangs on your head...
Never thought that maybe it's ourselves?
And no matter if once we repel
'cause it quietly stays hidden in men...

Thinking in the dim light
what if had a son?
searching for a reason to hold on

(so) Never say die
another like me
It's to be found

Never give up
and for once more
let's try to trust

Try not to lose heart
Lightness is slowly dying out

5. Eyes Of A Betrayer

[Music: D. Cafolla, Lyrics: M. Gelsomini, D. Cafolla]

[Alan:]

Through dark I'm moving
And silence is my friend
The mission now has started:
To find and take the trail!
While Jason sleeps in darkness
I feel my heart that runs
My power my temptation
The sin's now in my hands

Oh, but now I can't find what they want
Oh, but now I can't leave,
Now I can't fail in this way

I must find it!
They'll give power to me
Forever and on
I must find it!
They'll give power to me
Forever and ever and on

Fumbling in the shadows
(the terror to be found)
I think about the glory
The U-turn of a life
When this task will be over
I'll be sure of my fate
The moment of my rising
Is bound to the game

Oh, but now I can't find what they want
Oh, but now I can't leave,
Now I can't fail in this way

I must find it!
They'll give power to me
Forever and on
I must find it!
They'll give power to me
Forever and ever and on

6. The Cell

[Instrumental]

7. Lies

[Music: D. Cafolla, I. Nastasi, Lyrics: M. Gelsomini, D. Cafolla]

[Jason:]

Into deepest loneliness I fall
Through my secret prison

Here into my prison where you can't overtake me
I locked up the iron door before my spirit
Here into my prison there's no one that can hurt me
So I'm alone but safe into my world

In the years of freedom when innocence held sway
I did give my friendly help to every needy
With the elder days this habit was preserved
So vultures have surrounded all my life

If I look into your eyes now I see only

Lies,
Still now that I should have been skilled
Every time I try I'm crucified

Here into my prison I muse over my future
And I cry out for revenge towards the shadows
Here into my prison with bloodshot glance I'm waiting
For everyone to come under my hand

If I look into your eyes now I see only

Lies,
Still now that I should have been skilled
Every time I try I'm crucified

8. The Killing Hand

[Music: D. Cafolla, I. Nastasi, M. Gelsomini, Lyrics: M. Gelsomini]

[Alan:]

What was to be done is done
Jason now is posted up
My own burden overwhelmed
It's my last gift for a friend

My name is written, my shoulders will never be safe
I'll fall asleep a last time in a dread
One from the darkness will rise to do me in

There is a shadow approaching me

[Killer:]

Here is your hangman, your scoundrel
(The Killing Hand)
You can't escape from my justice
(The Killing Hand)

[Alan:]

My last night has come at last
Taming me an unjust rest
I will die with such a quest
Jason, will you never guess?

My heart is pounding, the end has arrived at my door
I'll fall asleep a last time in a dread
My last desire is to die without sorrow

There is a shadow approaching me

[Killer:]

Here is your hangman, your scoundrel
(The Killing Hand)
You can't escape from my justice
(The Killing Hand)

Voice:

Curtain falls...
Alan's eyes are closing
Last image...

..."you could have been rich..."

[Alan:]

What a deal...
Everything is lost now
Without peace
even in death I'll stay...

My name is written, my shoulders will never be safe
I'll fall asleep a last time in a dread
One from the darkness will rise to do me in

There is a shadow approaching me

[Killer:]

Here is your hangman, your scoundrel
(The Killing Hand)
You can't escape from my justice
(The Killing Hand)

9. Stardust

[Music: D. Cafolla, Lyrics: M. Gelsomini, D. Cafolla]

[Jason:]

What am I? Dust in the wind
Who am I? An angel without wings
Where am I? In a broken mirror
A golden prison can't take away my heart

Why am I in this restless night
Why am I in this endless fight against the world?
We're only Stardust

Welcome behind the wall
Here nothing seems real
Prisoner of my wasted dream
Under an Icy rain - trapped in another time

In a time of hate I'm only a stranger in the night

We're Only Stardust - Only a tear in the rain

10. Save Me

[Music: D. Cafolla, Lyrics: M. Gelsomini]

[Jason:]

By the window-pane I see
All those figures strangers to me
By the glass inside my eyes
I can show all happenings gone by

Here the silence has been bribed
who was troubling now is confined
In a cell a second time
They can shut up me not my mind

Save me tonight
can't you feel remorse inside?
So I scream save me tonight
before to madness I drive
Before I go...

11. Finale

[Instrumental]
