A Different Sky Montauk - New York Train, Penn Station, City Hall Station, NY Tribeca, Greenwich Village, NY I - 8:51 am Em: Floating, Carried by the crowd, awakened by the morning’ sounds. Faces brightened by a sun that’s fading at every single turn. Here it comes again, sneaking through the metal rails Then it disappears As the train enters Manhattan. Just another Monday mo -rning 9 a.m. , the snow is falling silently Freezing January. “Hello James, I’m freaking late so we can’t have our usual cup of coffee” He seems so different He doesn’t talk to me He’s not making any joke He just looks at me Like a stranger Then he speaks to me And his voice is not the same, Something doesn’t fit Something is wrong II - Grey Snow Out: there’s a street I can’t recall Not the park I used to know. There’s no music in the air Just a noisy traffic jam There are a thousand small details Well known things are twisted and changed Did hell break loose somehow? Or maybe I just lost my sanity Tell me what I’ve done to deserve this nightmare! What I’ve done to see my World: gone All the things I know: gone On my knees I crawl Brawl, Making my way through the city Hall Face on grey cold snow As I turn my eyes I see the World Trade Center’s gone And I felt nothing. Here I fall in a different world Trying to find a sense when all around there’s none Here I cry for a different sky For another sun, another place, A different everything And yes I’m still the same. III - Above the clouds I’ve been roaming all day long paranoid and chased by ghosts Like a fly caught in a web: The more I move the more I’m trapped As the panic grows inside Burning tears turns into ice I just wish I’d disappear So I just close my eyes and I’m Floating Drifting with the wind I’m flying high above the clouds (I’m flying to the clouds, and I smile) Smiling I realize that I’m just Falling Falling to the ground IV - Hell is a cold place So I’m standing still I’m chilling to the bone Cause there’s no place to go when all you love is gone And there’s no home There’s no friend to call No one to hold Where are you? Cause I’m here Trapped inside a tear Holding in my hands the one thing I still have Here you are In a fading picture All I have to do is tear it and go on Here I fall in a different world For a reason I will never understand. (And yes I’m sure I won’t forget) Here I cry, Here I’ll Live and I’ll die without you Here I’ll have to learn a way to Fight against a sky that I just don’t know. A sky I don’t know A sky that I don’t know A sky that I won’t know

Anthem Times Square, 7th Avenue, NY Ab: I have seen the people: drifting zombies in a maze or mice within a cage I can feel their empty eyes, they’re crowding me: the walking dead Give me just a reason to believe in what I see, trust in what I hear. I just need a reason cause I know for sure I’m going insane. And as they roam, belonging to their phones, They walk the assembly line Behaving like machines with no heart Come, Let’s sing the anthem of the human race and its decay Living like sheep destined to butchery on the global stage. My Tv is bigger than the one you own My life’s complete because I got a job My team’s the best, The one that you support got fewer likes and isn’t cool at all You should get married or you’ll die alone You’re just a loser cause your phone is old Your breasts are smaller than the ones I bought I have more “views” than you could ever want Em: In my world Life has got a meaning Here, instead, it’s based on mere appearance Ab: And as they crawl a road that’s paved with gold They’ll never understand That this is not their call but marketing’s Come, Let’s sing the anthem of the human race and its decay Living like sheep destined to butchery on the global stage. Let’s sing the anthem of our own checkmate How could I stay under the spotlight of a masquerade where everything is fake

No unicorns Central Park West, NY Em: Day after day I’ve been wondering why all that I hear is a noise buzzing from inside, as if my heart became a bumblebee. Year after year I’ve been searching for signs Then I realized I was looking but I was blind. There are no unicorns to be found. No fairytales No epic chase No other worlds Nothing but stillness Nothing’s worth fighting for While after while I’ve been learning to fly in every piece of a ceiling that it’s my sky So I could be and appear as they want me to be Since there’s no time to take care of my life how could I furnish my tunnel the way I like? There are no fairies, no life on mars. Nothing to say, nothing to change, nothing but fragments of days that I cannot deny, Even when it was a lie, it was all mine. Welcome, Welcome to nowhere, Welcome to my empty cage where a dream must come to an end: (cause) it was not enough. Welcome to nowhere, I have failed so many times trying to find my way out, out from this nowhere. For all this time I’ve been dying to reach MY paradise. Waiting for the moment, waiting for the circumstance But everyone’s broken, every door’s locked and I can’t get out. All this time I’ve been sacrificing all my life getting used to failure in a world of Nobel’s and models, And everybody looks so good And everybody has to fake a life of happy moments No fairytales White ties and tails Acting, reacting, pretending to be on a stage Wanting to be just a Truman that never finds out. Welcome, welcome to nowhere, It doesn’t matter who you are It doesn’t matter who you’ve been: it was not enough. Welcome to nowhere, I have failed so many times searching my way out of this life in a blank screen. Well done, This is not my world This is not my planet This is not my world This is not my planet This is not my world This is not my planet This is not my world How could I stand still?

She is the one Interstate 495 E, NY Montauk Ab: I’ll never understand why You chose that monday To deprive the world of every meaning And all i cared for was emptied cause in every place I can see your face even though i’m silent, there’s an ocean to be said Hanging by a thread I just have to deal with what is left And accept that you are gone. Do you remember all those years? The whens and all the whys Mocking every single one around us Do you remember those mornings packed inside a train When all around was gray? You’d always find a way to colour all my days I wish I could live again every moment of our past Cause the world that you created is still here but you’re not. Yesterday I thought I had the answers Yet i’m here trying to give a sense Trying to understand. Day by day I’m losing pieces of my life and my heart had to pay the price had to leave me here. Driving like a madman through the raging snow Where are you now ? Where are you now ? Floating traffic lights and blinding feelings I don’t need anything of this now. Keep me disconnected from this useless world Just leave me alone. Leave me alone. I’ve been everywhere afraid to go back home And then find that you are still not there How could I be saved from falling in the hole you left What have you done? You were the one! How could I forget your face And a smile that can’t fade away? So today I'm nothing but a shadow Standing still, I just can’t believe that i’m not afraid All those years we spent within a living dream will be safe here inside my heart cause you were the one.

Plastic Sunsets Brooklyn Heights, NY Em: I still believe that when it snows It's cause someone tilted the globe we live in. And the plastic house and the plastic grass gets sprayed with plastic snow in a plastic sunset. Have you ever been into a snowglobe?

Reset Day Montauk, NY Ab: Of all the battles fought in years and years of useless wars. Of all the lost causes embraced for nothing and lost for nothing more Here comes my crooked reality made with our useless memories: Here's where you laughed so joyfully here's where we kissed under that tree here's where we lived, here's our home you're in every moment of my life. Lasting for that day when I won't need to hide such pain. Here's where I threw my life away here's where I fought alone against all your fears, frustrations and a dream you'd never admit yet you're the one who made it die. It has never born You cast its life away So i'll just walk away I'll just walk away, just walk away and never care to look back I must walk away, must walk away and I won't dare to hope again I'm going today, I'm going today The perfect way to disappear I'm going away I'm trying to find some strength to face my reset day Of all the words: unheard of all the acts: ignored of all the calls: refused of all these barriers Of all the pride consumed in those amusing acts of all the calls I dropped for all the things you said... And all the life I dream is drained piece by piece from all the things we were and what we'll never be. For every wasting year of painful misery for every fucking moment of our life I will always find myself too much, too late. So I'll just walk away. I walk away, just walk away begging to hear a distant call Must walk away, must walk away it looks just like I’m standing still I leave today, I leave today the perfect time to disappear I'm going away but there's no strength that's left to face the reset day.
