FOUR
decide, I might decide
that all I want is just
another shade of green
that hope is just a simple scheme
in which what I decide it's real
indeed it's real, I've seen it all
it overcomes me every morning
and buries me with dreams at night.
decide, I can't decide
if what I am is put
in contraddiction's light
I've been a whole, I've been a part
and still apart from you I write.
It all is real, I've seen my soul
with its clenched fists
and no more flaws than before.
decide if four is just one more than tree
or if it sounds enough to me?

ARABESQUE
when I opened the window
it was dark outside,
and dark inside of me.
then I figured out it all was
either a dream or I should have
been a phoenix
to be so elegantly bursting into flames.
when in doubt, I fill the blanks
in my mind with arpeggi
ignore me if you think my love
is only a music
I still hesitate to say
it's the clearest I'll ever see you
there outside my bubble
when I opened the window
and I knew it all was either a dream
or I should have been a flower
for such a sun.

what do you want me to sing of?
Harmony was born from Aphrodite
and Ares, so I can only write of
love and war.
I don't belong with those who go
my place is here among the ones who wait
and say it's time, it's time for nothing.
you should know, it's this that makes
me sick of everyone who waits with me
but God, I see no one, just me and a myth.
I see enemies, I see cavalry
I see things like your smile and I'm lost
I'm the fallout of a love bomb.

ENTERTAINMENT
I was born, I was worn out
I was dead wrong
I was healing, I was feeling like
the Nile in Luxor.
is there a delicate way to tell myself
I love what happens
when everything turns into you
eventually.
I was yours, just as yours
as your own body
you were limit to the limitless
an ancient yearning
is there an easier way to tell you
I know what happens
when gypsies and poets alike
desert me.

SOLESTE'S DANCE - a duet
don't listen to the girl from Islington
cuz she knows the truth, and the truth hurts
the castle walls they make you protect
with spells and love potions, are tumbling
along with years of proud loving
of holding tight to really nothing
and it's nothing that keeps us apart
and nothing will bring us together.
don't be afraid of heights
don't be afraid of your eyes
staring at your love as an enemy
wearing the colours of fate.
but don't listen to the girl from Islington
what does she know of your true desires?
cause you don't either,
you've just loved a spectre for all your life.
don't be afraid of heights
don't be afraid of your eyes
staring at your love as an enemy
wearing the colours of fate.
