Se fossi l'ultimo uomo sulla terra cosa faresti? Siamo dei piccoli punti nell'infinito, ostinati a diventare, ad evolverci, a crescere, per poi tornare ad essere nulla nel tutto. La tua fede cadrebbe in un'ascesa di dubbi, lo spazio sconfinato e l'immensa solitudine prenderebbero il sopravvento. E nell'ignoto vagherai, trovando nelle ceneri il tuo unico conforto!

You must be really bad today We did not own To escape? It's too late now! Now take what comes! You will not find any grace Only a sad end It's your worst day today And will be for my hand Flames! Fire and Flames! I can destroy you Flames! Fire and Flames! I have so much fire for you You'll have to put up with something that really weighs Action and reaction Someday you'll think about what was bad and strong Screaming and crying Flames! Fire and Flames! I can destroy you Flames! Fire and Flames! I have so much fire for you You'll have to put up with something that really burns Action and reaction Someday you'll think about what was bad and slow Screaming and crying Fire! And Flames! Fire! And Flames! Fire!

There was a day When the sun became black Nobody expected that light Could become shadow Yet that day The day became night All the people saw Looks to the sky Ready to see the inevitable And avoid what is not yet seen At that moment The silence He spoke of an ancient prophecy of trees Told of a sudden darkess, a divine punishment The prophecy seemed to come true When the light ceased to shine And then suddenly Black wrapped the light They were the gods Who wanted the end of everything They were the gods Who wanted the end of everything And then suddenly Black wrapped the light They were the gods Who wanted the end of everything Of everything...

I live the life of crazy I know where I come from But I don't know who I am I am the eyes of a blind And the evidence for those Who don't want to see I look to the stone I look to the sky I look to the earth You're ready to die? The power of born Is great but today The power of death Strike on tonight I draw the power from the ground I know what's hidden inside him I grip on the air And the power of the unknown Spit fire! I predict victory for you Many cities will fall at the feet of a king Because that said the stones Pain! Pain! Pain! Pain! This is the end in this world By your hand he dies! And for glory you ride I scream for you into the fight! This is the end in this world By your hand he dies! And for glory you ride Scream for me! We go on fight Spit fire! I predict victory for you Many cities will fall at the feet of a king Because that said the stones

I see black wind Don't see my home I have lost all My hand is weak I cannot use The more I get, the more I'm confused I feel inside me That I can fight this black wind I have to get up I have to resist The force in my hand It came at the end But now that my heart Must continue to beat In this epic way I want to win I do not wanna fall It's so high that I want to stay My fear is so great My eyes are filled with tears And now I do not even feel my fist I feel inside me That can fight this black wind I have to get up I have to resist The force in my hand It came at the end But now that my heart Must continue to beat And here it's against me I'm the last thing to destroy I fight him standing With the darkness that surrounds me Ventus! Tenebris! Ignis! Solus! Pugna! Finis! I feel inside me That can fight this black wind I have to get up I have to resist The force in my hand It came at the end Forever my heart Continue to live!

And the warriors returned to their wives Warriors of the world That gave them nothing But owes them a lot Defeated in a battle lost in the beginning Kidnapped by their sense of pride They did not pour a tear But so much blood Blood! Too much blood! Spilled on the stone Stolen from the soul Blood! Too much blood! Spilled on the stone Stolen from the soul Because victory is a condition But knowing how to rise is a divine gift! Because victory is a condition But knowing how to rise is a divine gift! Because victory is a condition But knowing how to rise is a divine gift! Because victory is a condition But knowing how to rise is a divine gift! In this war today I fight the pain To sleep in this black night I want to forget My memory calls me I just can see it The memory of the past Where I'm dead But the brave ones are standing Few as the eagles in the world Made of glory Stronger than before Because victory is a condition But knowing how to rise is a divine gift!

I have so much time I savor every breath Thinking about tomorrow The window looks out to the world And I am a witness As time goes by, slowly Today the rain falls I still have time The air is as intense as my thoughts That flock merging together The window is the only thing That separates me from the rest of the world I can open, but I prefer to look Because today the rain falls I can float in the air Because I am part of it The window's no longer my prison But my escape I have little time The breath is heavy Because now the air is heavy as water And I'm drowning This window imprisons me A sadist tortures me In a world that will go on Without me Today the rain falls I have no more time I cannot breathe I do not need more I can float in the air Because I am part of it The window is not my prison But my escape I realized that despite death Life goes on Today the rain cries I realized that Despite death Life goes on And today the rain cries

Desert! Nothing comes to life Watching! The land is like the sky Screaming! The silence cuts the sound Running! It never seems to arrive All! All is great and far away Small! I'm feeling small and I don't now the way Alone! I am alone in this place The stones! Come from the space Like the wind that moves the dust These dead trees moving my eyes Clouds embrace the boundless space And in all of this, I feel a soft grace Creation! A very distant world Ablution! This is the real world Inside me! Some things tell me that it's not true Indeed! The man is no longer here Everything has rebelled against man Strangely I no longer feel at home

On the wings of the black wind I ride through the clouds Light is just a memory When I see again his face in my tormented nights Rust on my armor Dust on the grave of my past glory In this dying ground the tree is withered Ashes of glory and pain Ashes of glory and pain... and pain
11.
Feeling the fire onto my skin Knowing the taste of ground, stars and sea Searching my spirit through scars made by sins Walking this road, no wishes and dreams I found poetry in delicate sound My mind flying, silence around In my solitude I can see the flame Nothing to lose, no one to blame All that surrounds me speaks without words Come through the land of the silence, you will find your soul The sound of pureness, the voice of time Come through the land of the silence, you will know your mind

I see my way by carrying the weight of signs Fate brings me here in the place where rest is denied Lies in my hands, the sweetness of innocence Flows through my chest, the hermit's wisdom Rivers and trees, the green ray in the twilight Freedom is my dream and love is a mystery And tonight I lost myself carrying the weight of signs Oh, I surrender, is this my life? Peace may come in this sanctuary of waiver My throne is empty, my words are silent My words are silent...
