ANGELS CRY
Unfinished Allegro
Instrumental
Carry On
(Matos)
Simple minded brain,
for now you succumb
Nothing changes your way
This worlds insists to be the same
based on our mistakes
The flowers fade along the road
Don't blindfold your eyes,
so loneliness becomes the law of a senseless life
Follow your steps and you will find
The unknown ways are on your mind
Need nothing else than just your pride to get there...
Go!
Now we have to face another day
You won't be alone
This life is forcing us to stay
- For how long?
Cold is the wind and thunder struck on a stormy night
But can't you see, I'm by your side
We are marching on!
Follow your steps and you will find
The unknown ways are on your mind
Need nothing else than just your pride to get there...
So, carry on,
There's a meaning to life
Which someday we may find...
Carry on, it's time to forget
The remains from the past, to carry on
Follow your steps and you will find
The unknown ways are on your mind
Need nothing else than just your pride to get there...
So, carry on,
There's a meaning to life
Which someday we may find...
Carry on, it's time to forget
The remains from the past
So, carry on,
There's a meaning to life
Which someday we may find...
Carry on, it's time to forget
The remains from the past
Carry on, it's time to forget
The remains from the past, to carry on
The remains from the past, to carry on
The remains from the past...
Time
(Matos, Bittencourt)
This time I wanna know what life means...
... to live it again
I'm looking forward, feel the light shine in my eyes
And now I know, my instincts were not wrong
And many things can be done
I don't believe now
That I'm dreaming alone
Oh, we're searching for the love
that everyone's got, but can't see
Oh, beyond the flesh and blood
there's so much hidden behind
as so much more we've gotta give...
Sanity brings up the sadness
that keeps your illusions locked in a little box
Fright comes, you find yourself lonely
in a cage of conclusions crowding your mind
You sit back bowing your head
Every answer - yes
Why don't you trust me and shed out your fears,
Running over the tears you've contained
now cover up your eyes
- Is it good for you?
I will be here when fire burns!
Welcome on board
over here is the ship of your life
So rotten that will cast away
I'll be your sweet lullaby all the night
And if you get lost you can hold my hand...
And I'll be here when fire burns
(Inside your heart)
Climb up the hills and mountains,
don't forget what you've learned!
Life makes us feel the time we cannot hold
Time makes us live a tale already told
Time makes us heal a feeling inside
a feeling that lies in our heart
that we stole away...
And I'll be here when fire burns
(Inside your heart)
Climb up the hills and mountains,
don't forget what you've learned!
Life makes us feel (life makes us feel)
The time we cannot hold
Time makes us live (time makes us live)
A tale already told
Time makes us heal (time makes us heal)
A feeling inside
a feeling that lies in our heart
that we stole away...
Angels Cry
(Matos, Bittencourt)
Cry in the night of the angel
For their light will never shine
With their hearts so full of sorrow
Muddy waters all around
The curtain falls for helpless souls
How they suffer swept aside
And the raging streams are flowing
with so little hope inside
(Is like)
Angels crying
Can't take no more
Angels dying
Capture their fall
Try to see this misery
your future is not what you wished it to be
So try to fly, the answer lies
in the angry darkened skies
(angry darkened skies)
You just keep on standing in these fields all your life
You sow the seeds that never grow
No harvest comes such a strain to feed the few
Still you're waiting, it's in vain...
The change must come right now!
Oh, see the sun in the sky
(From the dawn of destruction)
Free, free this chain from my heart...
(chain, chain, chain)
Hear the cry of angels
from this life you cannot hide
The change may come tomorrow
for the solemn weeping eyes
(Like)
Angels crying
Can't take no more
Angels dying
Capture their fall
Try to see this misery
your future is not what you wished it to be
So try to fly, the answer lies
in the angry darkened skies
(angry darkened skies)
You just keep on standing in these fields all your life
You sow the seeds that never grow
No harvest comes such a strain to feed the few
Still you're waiting, it's in vain...
The change must come right now!
Angels are crying and dying
There must be some way
endless you stray, still you pray for a better life
Nobody sees when a glimpse
of your target lies behind you,
Like steps of the pilgrims unshined!
Stand Away
(Bittencourt)
Stand away the dreaded burning life
Will leave its mark for those with no desire
Stand in front of the whole creation
Face the people starved like worms
Still I'm begging for comprehension
From the ones who rule us all
Is this field the dying embers soul
All around we mourn
Oh, here they come again
Now they're coming more agressive tearing down our only chances)
The stars can't find the purple sky
(Loneliness will find its reason treasured seeds for every season)
Long for the day be back someday
And the church
(Church is selling consolation, killing Jesus for salvation)
Don't let us die
(Taking all in desperation, leave me now to rest in peace)
Let me rest in peace
Away, a while
Our smile taken from
The hearts of brokens souls
Stand away from the fire
Destined by the fate
Let those sinners pay how they steel
For on the judgement day
How they yield
Stand in front of the whole creation
Face the people starved like worms
Still I'm begging for comprehension
From the ones who rule us all
Is this field the dying embers soul
All around we mourn
Oh, here they come again
(Now they're coming more agressive tearing down our only chances)
The stars can't find the purple sky
(Loneliness will find its reason treasured seeds for every season)
Long for the day be back someday
And the church
(Church is selling consolation, killing Jesus for salvation)
Don't let us die
(Taking all in desperation, leave me now to rest in peace)
Let me rest in peace...
Never Understand
(Matos, Bittencourt)
White gold, a morning came
Sunny cold, refecting light
Unknown songs
Fresh water gush licks the line
Sprinkling crowns of silence
The face wet from the moistened dew
Wind takes the sight
Around the meadow
Playing kindly
Silver dropped wine
That flows inside, a sleeping hand...
Desperation fills the air
(In your heart lies the dust of the anger)
Madness knocking on my back
(Chiming bells have announced the new day)
My courage lies someplace
where time forgot to send me
(now where are you going?)
(now where are you going now?)
Someday they'll mark your sins
Like torture on your back
I wonder why
My mind is tight
Like stormy weather
And so it seems
That little steps
Would take forever
Oh, never understand
We're like mad horses heading for the bend
This place I'm standing here
Made it on my own
Moored my life to never let it go...
I wonder why
My mind is tight
Like stormy weather
And so it seems
That little steps
Would take forever
Oh, never understand
We're like mad horses heading for the bend
This place I'm standing here
Made it on my own
Moored my life to never let it go...
All my life I bleed away
I won't forget
All my life is never understand
Wuthering Heights
(Kate Bush)
Out on the wiley, windy moors
We'd roll and fall in green
You had a temper, like my jealousy
Too hot, too greedy
How could you leave me?
When I needed to possess you
I hated, I loved you too...
Bad dreams in the night,
They told me I was going to lose the fight
Leave behind my wuthering, wuthering, wuthering heights
Heathcliff
It's me, Cathy
Come home, I'm so cold
Let me in-a-your window
Oh, it gets dark, it gets lonely
On the other side from you
I pine a lot, I find the lot
Falls through withour you
I'm coming back, love
Cruel Heathcliff
My one dream, my only master...
Too long I roam the night
I'm coming back to his side to put it right
I'm coming home to wuthering, wuthering, wuthering heights
Heathcliff
It's me, Cathy
Come home, I'm so cold
Let me in-a-your-window
Oh, let me have it
Let me grab away your soul
Oh, let me have it,
Let me grab away your soul
You know it's me,
You know, yeah
Heathcliff,
It's me, Cathy
Come home, I'm so cold
Let me in-a-your window
Streets Of Tomorrow
(Matos)
Days of pounding emptiness
Just do far away, no regret
to live beside the danger
Running out of carelessness
Still unliked the tips of a bridge
That gets no one to nowhere
Let me run away
Free from lies, I won't forget
Escaping from these chains
I'll meet my love
Once again flying
Cloud from heaven
So, now?
Tell me how
To walk the streets of tomorrow
Someday, somehow, then we'll know
How things went wrong
And how?
Show me now
To live in peace no forever
The moment remains
And flows... don't let it go!
How do you stay
Down and pray
Let me know
The things you've done on your own...
(tell me right now, baby...)
How do you stay
Down and pray
Let me know
The things you've done on your own...
Let me run away
Free from lies, I won't forget
Escaping from these chains
I'll meet my love
Once again flying
Cloud from heaven
So, now?
Tell me how
To walk the streets of tomorrow
Someday, somehow, then we'll know
How things went wrong
And how?
Show me now
To live in peace no forever
The moment remains
And flows... don't let it go!
Evil Warning
(Matos, Bittencourt)
Time to believe in the dream that you've seen
In a world that is broken and mean
One day the sun it will shine for us all
Take the freedom that you have fore-seen...
Miles away
You're heading for the unknown
and there's no way to get back
Time to complain
Nobody is feeling the truth
To live in the crowd
sick of your own vanity
Dead scattered petals around
Hymms of betrayal
calling you for the attack
Evil warning
You're much too fast and much too high,
No time to worry!
It's over, no more remaining time
to cry and feel the pain...
In the morning
You stagger up to start the fight,
You get so lonely...
With no fore-sight until another day!
Run, don't wait for the sun
cause it's setting on you hopes
Don't look far behind for the shadows
They still stands... until the end!
Don't let your pride
make your blood flow cold in vain...
Until the end!
Time to believe in the dream that you've seen
In a world that is broken and mean
One day the sun it will shine for us all
Take the freedom that you have fore-seen...
Time to believe in the dream that you've seen
In a world that is broken and mean
One day the sun it will shine for us all
Take the freedom that you have fore-seen...
Evil warning
You're much too fast and much too high,
No time to worry!
It's over, no more remaining time
to cry and feel the pain...
Run, don't wait for the sun
cause it's setting on you hopes
Don't look far behind for the shadows
They still stands... until the end!
And don't let your pride make your blood flow could in vain...
Until the end!
Lasting Child
(Matos)
I - The Parting Words
Years gone by - Awake again
In a glowing star - That shines so far
Lasting child - Remains inside
Playing around - A future denied
High overhead, dusk is insight
Fumbling the mist
Lingering around...
Blow,
Carrying winds
Take me high
Where I can see
The hidden lights
That blink far beyond...
And then
A painted dream
Colours that melt
Inside slender frames
There I'll stand
There I belong...

Nothing to Say
(Music by Matos, Loureiro, Confessori)
(Lyrics by Matos)
Long ago, the same sky above;
"It's lonesome when the sun goes down"
A day had come when we were like one:
- Weapons up, never surrender!
Oh, I saw the gleams of gold
We'd kill and die conquering a virgin world
The hold corrupted by the honour
Living forevermore, leaving today
Back to my place, I've got
Nothing to say!
Guilt and shame, it's all so insane
Pagan gods die with no defence
And we could go no further at all
Digging the graves of our conscience
Oh, the sounds, they still echoe
All of us drifting on seas of blood
The hope hidden behind the horror
Living forevermore, leaving today
Back from this land, I've got
Nothing to say!
Living forevermore, leaving today;
For all what remains I've got
Nothing to say!
Oh, how many years have gone
Every morning I bare myself from love
The love rising up from the sorrow
Living forevermore, leaving today
For all what remains I've got
Nothing to say!
Living forevermore - Nothing to say!
Back to my place, I've got...
Living forevermore - Nothing to say!
For all what remains, I've got
Nothing to say!
Silence and Distance
(Music & Lyrics by Matos)
Been here for so long
On the morrow I'll dare
Silent and distant
Reaching out, unaware
Stealing the whispers
From my deepest request
And you watch me
Waiting for something new
My hands, as empty
As my body and soul
Could keep pretending
But in the heart I'd be gone...
Still stare at my face
But lost seem your eyes
Keep hold of the sails
Against the blue sky
Ooh, I'm intending
A way back to the sea
This emptiness burns inside
And leads on for endless miles
Don't let me go
Away across the sea,
It may be much more wide
Than what it seems to be
Ooh, I'm still searching
The way back to be freed
The loneliness hangs around us
However we can't see
Now let me go
Away across the sea,
The waves can't be as high
As they pretend to be
And now I know
In my heart, I won't forget
The sails against the blue sky
That taught me how to live
... with no sorrow
And tomorrow we'll share
Silence and distance
'till our faults are repaired
You'll be the mistress
Who I'll never forget.
Carolina IV
(Music by Bittencourt, Loureiro, Matos, Mariutti, Confessori)
(Lyrics by Bittencourt, Matos)
All I see floats with the wind
- All the miracles of the water
Are the miracles never seen
Somehow my life now begins
- This music that's been played through time
Now starts to reach my feet
Feels like the flood of my needs
- From the harmony of forever
Sound the melodies of the sea
And you will know on the way
- I'm coming back to my enemies
I'm turning around
I'll be just coming back to my last days
I'm coming back to the sea!
So... why won't you come with me, my friend?
Thrills... like we had before
Hope... never showing up the same
For a lonely man
Since the day we left the land
We've been anxious on aproach
Captain kept showing his plans:
"Under sail we go!"
Deep the ocean's blue I stare
The reflections of my soul
We have with us a special guest
And for him we made a toast
Carolina IV took a river to the sky
Seven men on board taking part
To take their hearts around
All around, around the world!
All I can recall that day
On that very day for sure
All hands up against the haze
As we attempted the return
Carolina IV took the river to the sky
One man less on board - human dreams
Have sometimes cost their lives,
All their lives dreaming
I've been such a fool
I've been so afraid
From my heart to you I say:
- I'll be here to stay!
Nothing much left from the boat
Many years have been and gone
Still I can't forget the past
And the ones I left at home
Carolina IV took the river to the sky
Windy whistling nights
Made me sail right into the wind's eye
Now I'll die singing:
I've been such a fool
I've been so afraid
From my heart to you I say:
- I'll be here to stay!
Holy Land
(Music & Lyrics by Matos)
We were born in a Golden Age
Beyond the creed
Blown with the winds to meet
The ones who creep
And pray
Unshold feet traces on fresh sand
A map unfold
Spreading out knowledge,
Magic and love
And then
... ooh, and then,
Carried by wooden gods
We leave toward the sky
Gushed out the holy blood
From those who die
To bless
Ooh, and dance...
Ooh, still dance...
Someone has sent
Somebody here
To bring an age
Long disappeared
Holy Land - Throw your scars on me!
My soul just tends to be
Your friend
Holy Land - Holy Land around
Holy Land - Holy Land is all...
Someone has sent
Somebody here
To bring an age
Long disappeared
Holy Land - Show your signs to me!
'cause I'm still here to see
Your face
Holy Land - Holy Land around
Holy Land - Holy Land is all...
Holy Land, Holy Land...
The Shaman
(Music & Lyrics by Matos)
Oh boys, I've seen the old man;
Straw mask around the forehead
The blaze, a blast and the awakening dead
(The magic seeds will spread...)
The bleeding warrior, he has fought
(Healing leaves, piranha teeth, nobody leaves this place 'till the
dawn!)
Against the passion, for the love
(Serpent skin, a savage scream, don't you believe, it grows and grows...)
Oh boys, it's all so easy:
Warn up the soul
While the body is freezin'!...
- I swear it!
Against the men for the land,
Against the beast to survive
Against the demons to keep the faith
(The spirits and the fate...)
A word - together they will shout!
(Run and pray if you're afraid you better stay away from it all!)
A rumble shakes up all the ground
(Start to sing, to turn and spin, get rid of all your sins right now!...)
Oh boys, it's all so easy:
Warm up the soul
While the body is freezin'!
A word - together they will shout!
(Healing leaves, piranha teeth, nobody leaves this place 'till the
dawn!)
Against the passion, for the love
(Start to sing, to turn and spin, get rid of all your sins right now!...)
Oh boys, it's all so easy:
Warm up the soul
While the body is freezin'!
Still we can hope a single word together;
Warm up the soul...
- Boys, I swear I've been there!
Make Believe
(Music by Bittencourt, Matos)
(Lyrics by Bittencourt)
Sat beside the meadow
Watching weeds agrow
Cleaned up all the ashes
Of my soul
Wrote down my own sentence
Now you take your way
Fades the last remembrance
Of your lovely pretty face
I, after all,
Just a lonely man - a lonely heart!
Working on the future
Floating on fate
Faced the circunstances
Cleared up the shades, so
Make believe
There's no sorrow in your eyes
Can't you see
We could never get back from the start
Minutes waiting, life's been wasted
... maybe I wanna die some other day
Hear the whispers of your hope
The answer wasn't told
No, don't laugh seeing me cry
The end I've left behind
(... the whispers of your hope are left behind!)
Make believe
There's no sorrow in your eyes
Can't you see
We could never get back from the start
Minutes waiting, life's been wasted
And I've tried,
Maybe you deny
Words of peace
For the future of our lives
Bring to me
Something else than a broken heart
I won't wait 'till my life is wasted
... maybe I wanna die some other day
Z.I.T.O.
(Music by Loureiro, Bittencourt, Matos)
(Lyrics by Bittencourt)
Somehow I turn around and see
My nerves break down inside
Maybe you might know much more than me
So tell me what is right to say
Down the weakness of my soul
Lie the secrets, and I know
There's something pushing back
Wish my hands could turn to gold
And my heart would break the cold
To give my thoughts some sense
The turn is close, new century
Still people think they're kings
Now you've got your voice,
Your own speech
Don't wait 'till someone else agress
Swimming naked of beliefs
And responsabilities
Just feel the sea of bliss
Mother nature brings to me
In fantastic purity
Everything I need
Like a teenager discovery
What's more delightful than this?
Try to remember how good it was
Feeling the life as it is
To believe!
New world was born out of man's dreams
Now we walk on our own
The angels cried, you've heard them weep
But now it's time to make them sing!
Swimming naked of beliefs
And responsabilities
Just feel the sea of bliss
Mother nature brings to me
In fantastic purity
Everything I need
Like a teenager discovery
What's more delightful than this?
Try to remember how good it was
Feeling the life as it is
To believe!
Deep Blue
(Music & Lyrics by Matos)
Three cliffs there stand
High above where high winds howl
Surrounding silence
Three birds climb, then turn to fall
Waiting for someday when the ocean and sky
Will cover up the land in deep blue
Renaissance is over and I wonder:
- Should I always be the same once again?
Take my hand and follow
Sweeping trees, the coats of green
Time has no place tomorrow
Feel the good in endless dreams
Waiting for someday when the ocean and sky
Will cover up the land in deep blue
Renaissance is over and I wonder:
- Should I close my eyes and pray?
- Feel like I've betrayed?
- Always be the same?
... always be the same once again?
Lullaby for Lucifer
(Music by Loureiro, Bittencourt)
(Lyrics by Bittencourt)
On the sand, by the sea
I left my heart to shed my grief
A vulture came begging me:
- Feed me with this piece of meat!
I won't give away
Something I need
On a garden nursery
I let my fancy wander free
Children playing around a tree
Sharing apples happily
Come and rest with me
Lay your hands on dreams
I'll wait here by your side
'till you fall asleep
I'll wait until you cry
All over me the tears you hide inside...
FREEDOM CALL
Freedom Call
(Matos, Loureiro)
Slavery kings run free again
From their wounds a giant stands
Four hundred years of glory
Animals who speak and cry
Destiny of craving sights
Inside the dance of white domain
Wheels turning round will feed the ground
And women carry by their children with no life
To future days belong the past
But change the times
Now millions cry out
From away it comes...
Freedom call
Freedom overall to last forever
No disgrace
No more separate race
We'll keep together 'till the end
Queen Of The Night
(Bittencourt)
Awaken the crystal bell of sorrow
Caught ourselves pretending our frustations
Were gone
Once again, instead of facing the day
We ran away; closed our eyes
To keep learning on feelings we had
We were close
Misty memories of a past come by
And I'll write my pray
On your face of hidden secrets
Never shared, freezing soul
Dreams last forever
To the empress of the dark
Lay down on eternity
Your music in the air
Great delight in the symphony
Our dance will never end
The Queen of the Night
The master of wisdom
Pretending desires
With the grace of thunder
The Queen of the Night
The feast of illusion
Pretending desires
With the grace of thunder
Reaching Horizons
(Bittencourt)
Rainy clouds covered up the sunny sky
Now I know I'll sleep alone tonight
Tears and prayers will be taken by the rain
Fear and loneliness in my dreams
And I know I'll never be the same
Living this tragedy insane
All I wanna be is to be free with you, with me
I don't blame the fate but it's still hard to face
The truth
It was all just like paradise
Just like we wanted it to be
Far beyond the reason rest our lives
Eternity denies the guilt of reality senselessness
Fly high reaching skies
Two eagles flying to be free
Moments of madness will be left behind
The same horizons but in different lands
Stand Away
(Bittencourt)
Stand away the dreaded burning life
Will leave its mark for those with no desire
Stand in front of the whole creation
Face the people starved like worms
Still I'm begging for comprehension
from the ones who rule us all
Is this field the dying embers soul
All around we mourn
Oh, here they come again
(Now they're coming more agressive tearing down our only chances)
The stars can't find the purple sky
(Loneliness will find its reason treasured seeds for every season)
Long for the day be back someday
And the church
(Church is selling consolation, killing Jesus for salvation)
Don't let us die
(Taking all in desperation, leave me now to rest in peace)
Let me rest in peace
Away, a while
Our smile taken from
The hearts of brokens souls
Stand away from the fire
Destined by the fate
Let those sinners pay how they steel
For on the judgement day
How they yield
Painkiller
(Tipton, Halford, Downing)
Faster than a bullet
Terrifying scream
Enraged and full of anger
He is half man and half machine
Rides the metal monster
Breathing smoke and fire
Closing in with vengeance soaring high
He is the painkiller
This is the painkiller
Planets devastated
Mankind's on its knees
A saviour comes from out the skies
In answer to their pleas
Through boiling clouds if thunder
Blasting bolts of steel
Evils going under deadly wheels
He is the painkiller
This is the painkiller
Faster then a lazer bullet
Louder than an atom bomb
Chromium plated boiling metal
Brighter than a thousand suns
Flying high on rapture
Stronger free and brave
Nevermore encaptured
They've been brought back from the grave
With mankind resurrected
Forever to survive
Returns from Armageddom to the skies
