I stretch a hand in the darkness and I feel the end and the dawn the last drops of light and the first echo of a new life I long for a gap in the unknown my mass is now energy for a new rebirth in a new dimension I come through a thick and opaque plasma blending with nothing gravitational chains dissolve and I leave no trace at all Projected onto the extreme limit I see my life again No more atoms but thoughts New dark matter wastes of colliding worlds against spaceships wrecks and never heard messages repeating an infinite moan I turn and look behind the Universe (is) now a mirror where I can see my wrinkles I’d break so be to be reborn Stars no more shining Comets with no more wakes They stand still in the eternal void A graveyard to the extreme limit Where nobody leaves a flower And rain won’t wash my tub And wind won’t leave the leaves and marble angels crush But now I have the key This door I won’t open Not fearing the unknown But fearing what I know I turn and look behind the Universe (is) now a mirror where I can see my wrinkles I’d break so be to be reborn And now I turn and look behind the Universe (is) now a mirror where I can see all my wrinkles And I would break so be to be reborn I dive back into this ocean, (it’s) lifeless and bottomless, searching for a symmetry and for a new transparency Moreno

Cygnus X-1 05:16
Our love, once buried in shadows, hidden in the infinity, comes alive only due to seeds of light growing in the faraway dark matter only due to seeds of light Will we ever be again a binary system, two lines that converge? Now we're only parallel worlds and we're not supposed to meet Will we ever be again put in the same segment of time? we're at the edge of two dimensions and we chase after each other Through complex and unseen formulas With some splitted, shapeless simulacra Opposing forces are deceiving me I can't see if you are really close to me or if it's just a chemical dream Too late I've realize that I've already written my path into stone. You are beyond Space and Time trapped in your singularity, hanging in the nebula of my doubts. I wonder whether you will see me only when I'm already dust. Systemic, yet periodic oscillations give a sense to distance between two distinct entities that flow in a misleding obscurity falling in the vacuum of the loneliness like they have no weight Will we ever be again a binary system, two lines that converge? Now we're only parallel worlds and we're not supposed to meet Will we ever be again put in the same segment of time? we're at the edge of two dimensions and we chase after each other Through mathematical formulas Moreno

The Earth has finally come to its end pulverized by a planet full of melancholy Can we stand and watch the end of humanity? We will be part of this heartbreaking triumph of nothingness My state of mind is now cold and paralyzed I don’t care about my fate, and the whole creation There are wires from the ground incarcerating my mind (I) float abandoned and denied by an unconcerned river My catatonic state reflects what this world has taught me The Earth is evil (and) there’s no life in the universe The Earth is evil. We do not to grieve for it. Nobody will miss it. The Earth is evil The universe is dead. Life is meaningless The Earth is evil. The dance of death is just the beginning of the end Science and reason have failed this time Childhood and innocence seem to be the only salvation but now there is no hope for us to be saved and stay alive and, heedless of all this death, I embrace the end with a sweet surrender Now I'm an artwork of magnificent splendor laying towards the eternal darkness The Earth is evil (and) there’s no life in the universe The Earth is evil. We do not to grieve for it. Nobody will miss it. The Earth is evil The universe is dead. Life is meaningless The Earth is evil. The dance of death is just the beginning of the end Ark

Negentropy 08:30
As a snowflake becomes again water When meeting ocean As a spark becomes light when falling onto a star So a flower turns to forest When meeting water and light The future turn away from the past Will is now released from the chance And I become again infinite Passing over the laws of Chaos And following the breath you left into space I reach you in the eternal silence Moreno

I GAVE YOU ALL A LEGEND BY YOUR SIDE I LET YOU JOIN YOUR DREAMS TO MINE YOU DANCED WITH ELVES IN THE MAGIC RING I GAVE YOU A KINGDOM AND YOU WEREN’T A KING I JUST ASKED FOR A MOMENT TO BE ONLY FOR ME JUST A BREATH OF AIR AND A SECRET TO KEEP AT THE SOURCE OF KNOWLEDGE YOU DROWNED ALONE YOU CUT A FLOWER THE ROSE OF SHARON MY HIDEOUSNNESS BLINDED YOU TRUTH CAN’T MAKE YOU RICH YOU WANTED A FAIRY YOU’VE FOUND A WITCH THE CLOUDS IN THE SKY NOW ARE MY CLIFF AND I SING TO THE WIND THE CRY OF THE SIREN Moreno

Linear A 06:41
No wine in my chalice Tonight only space Lost in the tomb of eternal neglect You’re now dissolved into eternal orbits around invented planets it’s time for silence Giving voice to a flower Was the last frontier The hidden gate between our hyperspaces I’ve quitted collecting obscure echoes Lost into opportunities We didn’t catch How many spoken words just to hurt each other more What did you really hear When I cried your name? We are not infinite We’re the bi-dimensional mirror of that very little sun we couldn’t but blow out Viruses in their element now breeding in a memory of faraway interferences and voices from stars I stand still, waiting For a last frequency of a Rosetta Stone and an Einsten-Rosen bridge Bringing back the hands and resume your words as bones in the desert after centuries of oblivion just to try once more to search in the bottom of my chalice traces of those promises longing for the abyss, thirsty of the abyss Moreno

I DIDN’T WANT MY DUST TO LAY INSIDE KREMLIN’S WALLS NEITHER I WANTED MY PEOPLE’S TEARS I DIDN’T WANT MY NAME TO BE AMONG STARS I JUST WANTED TO SEE THEM CLOSER AND MY SCREAM IN THE DEEP SPACE HEARD FROM OUR WESTERN ENEMIES WAS NOT A CRY FOR HELP BUT A SONG OF PEACE AMONG PEOPLE I CAN’T STOP THE FLOWING OF TIME I CAN’T CROSS THE BLACK HOLES THROUGH NOR TEAR NEWBORN FLOWERS AWAY SOWN BY A FRIEND I HAVEN’T SEEN DISTANT STARS ANYMORE BUT MEMORY LIGHTS ARE SHINING ON MY GRAVE NOW AND FLOWERS LEFT TO THE APRIL SUN TO CELEBRATE THE OCTOBER REVOLUTION GOD DOESN’T PLAY DICE BUT FATE ROLLED MINE TO A FLIGHT DREAMT FOR A LIFETIME OR A FALL INTO THE ABYSS JURIJ MY SON AND BROTHER A SUN NEVER ECLIPSED BY FEAR OR GUILT MY WAX WINGS TO SAVE HIM FROM A LAST “GIANT LEAP FOR MANKIND” ONLY MY BURNED CORPSE IS LEFT IN THIS METAL CAGE MY SOUL WILL FLY BESIDE THE SKY GODS FOREVER Moreno

Born from a series of coincidences in spite of the natural evolving order you came to light to create something new breaking the green that ruled the old world Amborella Trichopoda, the first flower on earth Who saw you, could not imagine looking innocent without a blemish you hiding the fate of mankind Current nature cycle on earth since the great ancient left the planet is due to your 'abominable mystery' a whole genome duplication event Amborella Trichopoda, the first flower on earth who saw you, could not imagine looking innocent without a blemish you hiding the fate of mankind The whims of the wind cannot disturb you streams of water are no longer a limit ferns and conifers bow to your craftiness Pangea’s become your experiments lab (You) created new life on planet earth to enslave it by your beauty plotting a mechanism of forced dependence you’re the drug that’s based on nature itself Amborella Trichopoda The whims of the wind cannot disturb you streams of water are no longer a limit ferns and conifers bow to your craftiness Pangea’s become your experiments lab (You) created new life on planet earth to enslave it by your beauty plotting a mechanism of forced dependence you’re the drug that’s based on nature itself What you started you’re no longer able to stop in a chain of events what you have created is poisoning you The human being plays to be a god stained forever the symbol of nature destroying what The case gave him and forcing its kind to look for a new planet to colonize to deface to wreak havoc An eternal Panta Rei?

In the red dust that will let you hang over There is chaos that rules over vastness No escape from this restless disorder Lost in the coils of Noctis Labyrinthus Aeons of decay and destruction Brought to life a renovated landscape Enigmatic paths of the inner mind Where running is a wasting of time Following waters no more existing It will drive you into loneliness As those new rocks around you are growing Fill the spaces with blind winding madness Divide with violence The winds are blowing all over Divide with violence The shapes are changing forever Divide with violence The winds are blowing all over Divide with violence The shapes are changing forever Aeons of decay and destruction Brought to life a renovated landscape Enigmatic paths of the inner mind Where running is a wasting of time In the red dust that will let you hang over There is chaos that rules over vastness No escape from this restless disorder Lost in the coils of Noctis Labyrinthus Losing the ways To rise up again And find the centre of the labyrinth Watching from afar It’s all just a drawing And you Can find the way out Ivy

Celestial spheres will give birth to universal music An eternal dance, two bodies wishing their rebirth Everywhere is dumb silence along A concrete thought will keep the key to live the harmony In a new dimension, where flame is not just abstraction Lost in the mirror of passion, disruption. Follow the path between sensation and emotion Longing for something you will never possess Crawling behind tails of nails and whispers The (red) god is screaming for what it claims his own The black lady hidden in rage, she screams inside For a new dimension, where flame is not just abstraction Lost in a mirror of passion, disruption Caught into the web of attraction and obsession Lilith had wings to fly and then she paid the price Crawling behind tails of nails and whispers Mars felt some shivers The Scorpion just came in to avoid an end. Follow the path between sensation (and) emotion Longing for something you’ll never possess Hiding behind a burning star Right before the time is over Back into the shadows of a cosmic dance Hiding behind a burning star Right before our time is over Back into the shadows of a cosmic dance. What if the storms end and stars would tear you apart from me Better to reign in hell if a split would befell Another dimension where flame’s a reflection Of all you desired and all you can’t hide Follow the path through sensation (and) emotion Desire and deny, scream but don’t cry. Remember what you lived Remember what you had. Kiss the poison and put and end. Here’s a cold embrace Here’s the final glance to the eternal dance. Sin

Wings of Honneamise Wings of Honneamise The eyes towards horizon I watch my last sunrise A handful of my land so cold as the infinite Sun is rising Countdown is approaching I close the world outside And in my unknown I remain Wings of Honneamise Wings of Honneamise I look for a memory of you to find the courage of leaving this ground and maybe leave you for good Beyond the Escape Velocity Time is no more existing Now I count my breaths and the beats of my heart Like a shell in the ocean driven by the full moon I get carried away to unknown islands I don’t promise to bring you a smile or a flower Where I’m going there are none And dreams never survive Wings of Honneamise Wings of Honneamise And if you see a new star exploding in the sky you’ll know I’m not back now And I’ll will wait for you above With those dreams and those flowers I never gave you Until one day you will spread your wings, too Moreno
