do you believe in fairy tales?
this is not one of those
There are no heroes, there are no spells
no kings or princesses
this is the story of an ordinary man
could be you, could be me
or the boy walking down the road
while the sun is going down
with a sad smile on his lips
and a mind destroyed by uncertainties
one of us
who feels lost
one of us
who has stray from the path
one of us
trapped in the routine
one of us
who just wants to escape
there is a girl on the road
walking alone in the crowd
with a sad smile on her sweet lips
while the sun is going down
if you're thinking about a happy ending
I'm sorry but this is the real life
their eyes meet for a second or a little more
but then they get lost in the mob
departed in this gloomy city maybe they were soulmates
but they are walking on parallel lines

Castle of Cards

Please sir may i have another drink? I can feel the rage growing up, inside of me
Please sir may i have another drink? There’s a man who try to drown his mind, in front of me
Please sir may i have another drink? There’s a story that I have to tell, about him
Please sir may i have another drink? I can’t stay calm seeing this
You stupid piece of crap
You have no right to sob
All of your woes are caused by you
Now you have no right to complain
money was always what your wanted
you never cared who you friends were
even your family was irrelevant for you
and now you are alone, and you deserve it all
do you remember when you were just a child looking at the sky? Staring at the moon, pointing at the stars telling yourself that one day you'd leave all of that shit you did it at the end but that was not enough for you, no you crave more money, more power, more women, more drugs
your wife and children became useless
now you wake up in a cold bed the gray light of the city is your only friend
only sadness live in your heart you are alone in your castle of cards
this is nothing but It’s all you have

Of Hell and Return

The sound of the doorbell wakes me up early this morning Light is burning my eyes while I go downstairs Two men at the door, mom is crying, she screams “go away, come back to your room!” I run in my bedroom while the fear devours my brain Hours are passing and I don’t know what happened “Dad is gone in a better place” is the only thing that I remember of that day when I was only ten Years passed and I grew up, my mom drowned his demon and lost his mind in a spiral of drugs My sister became a little girl with only me as father and all of my family depended on me But I’m only seventeen, I can’t bear such a weight, father please come back to me I can’t resist without you I’m not ready to take a responsibility like this I can’t see a way forward There’s a fork in front of me Stay and fight, in danger to disappoint my family? Or run away and live with the sense of guilt? I’m not strong enough to decide My only way is deciding to not decide Whiskey and pills go down my throath
Now is time to sleep
Stay and fight?
Or run away?
I’m not strong enough
And now it’s too late
What have I done? A thunder in my breast hits my heart A light burns my eyes, fuck I’m alive I saw the gates of hell but I come back I have a war to fight and I swear I will win Father I wish to hear your voice again but now I know that this will not happen So I am alone against all the world but fuck I’m alive
I am alive
