I can only feel it in my toes
some evil that is growing inside
i should have something to hold on
maybe a throne to fight for
a naive poetry to adore, while i'm just sitting here
I kept my memories in the attic
i avoided a chance that could be drastic
you always see me drinking
that same poison i once saw you eating
and that's the strongest drug
Cause we like to live as the romantics
it keeps us from panic
you'll play the guitar and i'll try to sleep

Remember all the neon lights
flowers in my letter box
times we were invincible
we thought we couldn't stop

Go back, go back, go back
cause you believe you left yourself in the past
look for someone to blame
a reason why you are now insane
Go back, go back, go back
try to find your own pack
look for someone to blame
maybe you were always insane

My father told me that everyone lives by their own codes of living
that's when i decided to sail through unstable emotions
to find out that love is just another feeling
Andrew was a regular guy, then he decided to become a magician
that's when he realized, there are some things that can't be fixed
life's lies can be worst than a politician
The days are short and the years come crawling
what am i gonna do with the half of my soul?
the poets told me: "share it with someone"
i'd rather exchange it for a small amount of gold
In the winter, alone in the fireplace, you may cry for help
but what must be remembered is that your mood changes with the moon
and sadly, people are not vulnerable to spells
If i keep chasing my own tail
i won't find you, you won't change me
warm me up with a sweet cup of coffee
we were taught to laugh about our own misery

In our heads we've met in London
in our hearts we've met in a war
you were standing there staring at a ****** girl at the bar
I decided that i wanted to be like her
cause i felt your attraction for death
it was inside me, a secret feeling, a hunger that you've fed
The cold became so comfortable
and you said "it's pretty normal"
then it was the light, crazy golden butterflies
Suddenly everything is gone

I threw my legacy into the fire
you cut the rope, it was just desire
groaning, spitting blood, it ****** my soul
i hope God wasn't expecting the dark road
that we've decided to march
And we went down, down, down
we met Hades in the grey ground
but love, you know
the life's river is slow

Sometimes you wake up wanting to have
a great adventure with eternal memories
you came along and the ******* was part of the feast
To live seemed to be so boring
but then we found some colorful passages
they've tried to show us the way out
but i was finally understanding the messages
How can the destruction look so charming?
we started a battle without an army
they knew we were going to lose
and it was already done

I threw my legacy into the fire
you cut the rope, it was just desire
groaning, spitting blood, it ****** my soul
i hope God wasn't expecting the dark road
that we've decided to march
And we went down, down, down
we met Hades in the grey ground
but love, you know
the life's river is slow

Drinking venom just like water
a beautiful red shade in your eyes
my damaged child, i know you are mine
You need to accept your curse
the broken bones in your spine
the light is coming for us
I promess you, we'll be fine

I threw my legacy into the fire
you cut the rope, it was just desire
groaning, spitting blood, it ****** my soul
i hope God wasn't expecting the dark road
that we've decided to march
And we went down, down, down
we met Hades in the grey ground
but love, you know
the life's river is slow

When i first met you you were so bored
i didn't hesitate sitting next to you
you said "your lack of feelings won't be a problem"
and we found each other to share our blues
Disdain, disease, disgrace, disgusted
the first tear was a waterfall
when you realized that i couldn't be trusted
trouble on paradise
the walls started to fall
So i ran away to the east, i climbed mountains, i found a priest
the pain was howling and i was looking for sweet words
I broke a mirror, turn my dark side into fear
cause when you were near i could easily run the world

My given name is Asylum
for a long time you were my ******
you know that i'm a loaded gun
that i used to break hearts for fun
now i'm not so sure
Go ahead and pull the trigger
i'll stand still and you're eager
cuts and bruises, now i'm done
you can hurt me just for fun
you're so sure
that we are better alone

Your heart was a stone, you were a gangster
my skin was cold as an iceberg
now it looks like i was the only amateur
even knowing the right codes to whisper
Give me a cigarette or this poison in your tongue
at least we're still connected by hate
The Smiths on the jukebox, you could sing along
but i guess you no longer believe in fate
So what if i decide to stay, to believe in something, to start to pray
would you look inside my head searching for your eyes?
Can we ask the gods to forgive our misery?
we can fight for victory, and i could die
knowing you have tried to be mine

My given name is Asylum
for a long time you were my ******
you know that i'm a loaded gun
that i used to break hearts for fun
now i'm not so sure
Go ahead and pull the trigger
i'll stand still and you're eager
cuts and bruises, now i'm done
you can hurt me just for fun
you're so sure
that we are better alone

Don't be scared of what i have to offer
i punched you in the face to make you a fighter
When you decide to leave
you can be a better person without me
cause i set fire to your brain
and you didn't let me explain

You came from nowhere to cause some panic in my kingdom
In a second you were the queen of the paradise,
and i became the evil
People used to look at you, how beautiful eyes
For them i was just dreaming too high
You were always so spontaneous and
i didn’t know what to do
That’s when i started to hate you

So if you’re wondering to yourself
“why am i always behind the lights?”
I’m sorry if i took your wars
when i couldn’t deal with a fight
You have the shine of the two of us,
and my sky is gray
I am the winter, so cold
And you have some warm words to say
I want you to know that it was so hard to keep
All those people around you,
all the thorns on my knees
When i asked to myself “Who i wanna be?”
I wanted to be you
Cause you’re so ******* better than me

Our behavior is always the point
that people want to compare
If it was a race you obviously
should be one step ahead
I think you’re the gold of the family
But i’m proud to be the creepy one
It doesn’t matter if you think that
my future is the brightest
Darling, you are the smartest.

I finally took courage
And i hope you understand these words
Cause behind all the damages
You’re still being the center of the world

I hit my head in a black hole
I was just seated watching the time
now i have these screams locked in my throat
you were right
In the end ain’t no second chances
I can feel it, my mind is changing
that’s the part that you have to go
and i’m loosing all my senses

I’ve tried to break my hourglass
cuz every second is a knife
and every day is a scar
in my pride
Why don’t you decide to stay?
you’re so older for you age
while i’m trying to stop the time

I said “now”, but now it’s too late
I can’t move my feet
and we’re in the middle of a race
we don’t have time to think about what we should fix
Why can’t we rebuilt the past?
those regrets are so unfair
live slowly, die fast
you were here to break the legs of my chair

I’ve tried to break my hourglass
cuz every second is a knife
and every day is a scar
in my pride
Why don’t you decide to stay?
you’re so older for you age
while i’m trying to stop the time

The world is starting
now in your hands
everything can happen
but you need to build a fence
The world is starting
starting to rise
a bird that wakes up
and forgets how to fly
But he’ll fly away
cuz he wants to touch the sky
he’ll fly away
someday you’ll be mine

The world is an old bird
but he knows how to sleep
like a stubborn child
forever, you’ll see
In the bottom of the ocean
in some seas, strange tides
old bird, in your world
someday you’ll be mine

I know how to get there
but it’s a place that i’ve never been
it’s a place that you haven’t seen
with your own eyes
I bet you’d think it’s beautiful
and you’d stay, you’d sing
a smile in your eyes
you hair blowing in the wind
You love me, who’d have known
you looked so sad and weak
you forgot how old you were
but you were young again in a blink

The world is an old bird
but he knows how to sleep
like a stubborn child
forever, you’ll see
In the bottom of the ocean
in some seas, strange tides
old bird, in your world
someday you’ll be mine

Well then, be careful
the world is starting in your hands
it’s already rising, there you go
good things never come to an end
So beautiful, it doesn’t look old
flying, flying, flying
in the morning, so cold
