Blue climax torn to time

Shock that shakes screams from the sky

Stone that breaks through thunder …

ItalyBLUE CLIMAX

Blue climax torn to time

Shock that shakes screams from the sky

Stone that breaks through thunder …

Along beaches always rolling

(History – no cycle whatsoever)

For new paths always looking …

 

Freedom: trouble & passion.

Pure silver – superego rules.

Limit points all around.

BEFORE MEETING YOU

Before meeting you

In sweat and tears throughout

The world

 

A drop of

Blood

Underfoot.

Italy-1DOCTOR, HEAL PEOPLE ’S TOUCH

Months, years

Rapes stains

Patient eyes, scratched cheeks,

Broken noses, torn clothes.

 

Too many hands squeezed our blood

Too many feet crushed us to death

Our wrath surged like a wave

Our anger makes us very relentless.

 

The best flowers stopped blooming so much.

Horror was deeply rooted in our hearts

Sorrow took deep roots in our scars.

Doctor, heal people’s touch.

 

Covered with mud

Buried with dung

We learnt to hug

We learnt to act.

 

We need to move in the clearest sunshine

We want to dance at night in the softest moonlight

We know we can sing only together:

Our dance love song will make us proud.
