Life on Death Road
Lande/A. Del Vecchio/C.Martone
I speed into the future
Rolling like a rock
Down this road of changes
We race against the clock
Closing in on the day when we cannot stay
And the world keeps moving
On and on and on and on without us
Tumbling round in this wheel of compromise
Shot down by the flame of sacrifice
But the phoenix rises
The life on death road
It makes me burn
Fighting my way through the fire
Screaming as I yearn
The flights on death road
I flew them all
Gazing with vision eyes
Beyond each blinding wall
Dreams have turned to ashes
Some are lost then found
We're ploughing through the ages
Here comes another clown
Holding on to the line when the words don't rhyme
And the pain keeps pouring
Down like arrows
Was there a time when earth was paradise
Without winds of war that paralyze and traumatizes
The life on death road
It takes a man
So raise your shield of faith
The powers in your hands
The time on death road
We can't rewind
Passing another age in the history of the blind
The lights on death road
A life on death road ooh
Pilot of the death machine
Rev your engine make it scream
Hey midnight
Your dark is alright
The light I know I found deep down in your black
Shadow dream child
The beast inside you you can ride into the sky
Beyond the lie
I used to hang out down at the record store
Just a young boy ready to explore and live it all
No rest for the warrior at the barricades
I'll be a fortress till the end of days
And do it my way
Spotlights on death road
They made me turn
Slamming my hammer down on the fame I used to yearn for
This life on death road
Don't ask me why
Just fight with sword and armor till the day you die
We can make the vision fly
Hammered to the Cross (The Business)
Lande/A.Del Vecchio
They tell you what to believe in
But you don't need the mask they wear
In a world so deceiving
Stealing dreams to kill your flare
Bouncing lies inside your brain
Telling you that you’ve gone insane
When all you did was step out of the rain
The sun was better than the pain
Capitalistic shadow over paradise
Political drama breeding sacrifice
They're all in it for the business
But me I'm in it for the heart
I’ll never sell my soul to greed
I take the nails and bleed
Hammered to the cross yeah
Nailed on to the cross
My mind is chaos but I’ve got the beat
I am the rhythm and melody
Once my ambition was the fame
But now I'm tired of playing this game
My wings of darkness still keep trying to fly free
Someone take the pressure down
There’s a storm inside of me
I saw you there in the paper standing next to a faker
And it blew my mind
You and me never meant to be
But how could you be so blind
You were in it for the business
When you left and broke my heart
You were just a deceiver
And I was the bleeder of love
Hammered to the cross
Crying on the cross
Like a candle in the frozen night
I am the flame of the lonely light
Burning fast in these times of haze
Crucified in this ancient place
Slowly dying from the things I learned to love
We're all swallowed by the business
Under the eye that steals their heart
In denial we give a smile and pretend for a while
All in it for the business
Everybody's in the business
I’ll never let it drown my soul
And kill my rock n’ roll
They were in it for the business
When they stabbed him in the side
Sent down to the earth of lies
To take our sins and die
Hammered to the cross yeah
Bleeding for the loss
God help all of us
Love is the Remedy
Lande/Del Vecchio/S.Mularoni
Creatures of the darkness
We have shadowed every land
Chaos an disorder
It's the endless curse of man
Living with the pressure
It gets harder every day
Never liked to compromise but it's the only way
Pouring demons from the fountain
In my brain they won't let go
I'm slaying devils from below
I'm just a climber on a mountain
Dragging questions through deep snow
The answers never show but one thing I know
That never to believe in love
Never to believe in peace is a crime
The crime of the century
People in this broken home
You must let the warm winds roam in your heart
Love is the remedy
Ooh let love sing your melody
I cannot see the future
but I hear the judgement bells
Racing down this one way street
It's leading straight to hell
Guess I'm not the only one
To think the world's gone blind
Horns are growing out of heads
The devil rules our time
Calling out for freedom
In our moral of decay
Hear the money talk
See the bullshit walk away
We're running out of time
Inside this labyrinth of blame
The hate remains the same and war is just a game
But never to believe in love
Never to believe in peace it's a crime
Crime of humanity
Have to rise from the dark we grow
To change the world we know
So come on
Set love forever free
Hey now Mr Righteous
So you think you know the land
Clever with the business
But your heart is in a jam
You may tell me I'm a loser
And that I ain't got no clue
But unlike you I read the signs before I make my move
Everybody slaving for their money
Trying to maintain
Fighting bitterness that's eating in our brains
How can we prevail in time
When blinding all our shame
If we don't see the pain
Only evil shall remain
Never to believe in love
Never to believe in peace is a crime
Life's not the enemy
Shine on the darkest road
Set fire to the heavy load
In your heart let love forever be
Yeah set love forever free
Dreamwalker
Lande/Del Vecchio/S. Mularoni
I am a grinder of things I've seen
I walk the earth and bleed inside this death machine
I am a riser out from the burn
My wings lift from the ashes black as coal but I still yearn
A new horizon I must learn
I'll glide away beyond the darkness and the sun
To be a soaring flyer
Till my days are done
My great escape behind the cobwebs of the mind
The vision that I find
A world where I'm not blind
Dreamwalker
My only way to go
Dream stalker
Like a drug I have to know
Dreamwalker
Here comes the climber up from below
Above this cloudy mountain rain will never show
I've known the drama I've felt the pain
But I won't let my spirit die
My inner sky remains
Once I had a flower soul
Till it froze and fell apart
Now I grow my music
From the sorrows of the heart
Still I have dreams in the dark
Old memories they haunt like storms of heavy snow
I still keep my head up high and face the trouble winds that blow
Soaring home holding on
I dry my tears and fly
As I sing my songs for you and I
Dreamwalker
The only way to go
Dream talker
With horns under my halo
Dreamwalker
Dreamwalker
Fire to the Sun
Lande/Beyrodt
Here comes a storm of ice and fire
Hellborn demon with a strong desire
Heaven’s devil on this road to hell
A fallen angel in a wishing well
I'm everything and everything is me
I find myself in all I see
Hard to accept when wrong is right
Love and hate close like day and night
Built my ambition since I came to rock
I always had to be the master of the flock
Not sure I'm ever coming back
No time to waste so I attack
I'll be the fastest on the track
Cause I'm the leader of the pack
Turn up the flame until it's done
I'm coming so you better run
Shooting like a lazer gun
I set fire to the sun
She was a fast crate engine ready to go
He was a 460 big block overload
Yes they had one thing in common deep in the soul
It was the hunger for love and rock'n roll
Back alley creatures of the neon jungle
Wall street kings and queens losing numbers
One more down as the business crumbles
Still we roll the dice
The dark pressure on the brain is such a heavy load
World is a thermometer destined to explode
There'll be crying in the shame
A lot of trouble from the blame
It's the nature of the game
We learn to burn in the rain
All the songs I have sung
And every dream that I have spun
Till the end when all is done
I'll set fire to the sun yeah
You better stay out of my way or I'll run you over
I'll be the stone that doesn't crack
I'm always ready to attack
Fastest train on the track
A leader wolf and his pack
You'll sing the songs that I have sung
And spin the wheels I have spun
Turn up the flame until it's done
And set fire to the sun
Ooh maybe we will never know
What comes after when we go
But there's one thing that I know
I'll set fire to the show
Some say I was a big mistake
I say I did it my own way
All you trolls of today
I set fire to your play yeah
I set fire to the sun
Insoluble Maze
Lande/Del Vecchio
We gaze at the outline
See the stars in black and blue
While the unborn awaits the new
They have tried to ice me down
But I won't stop burning
I still let my firewind blow
You and I in a clouded sky
We try to see beyond the why
The rush of time pushing the mind
To look for signs and dreams in the blindness
No peace for the road in a game full of slyness
Born to burn my demon fire till it dies
When I say bye bye big lie
I'll go down with my flag held high
Like pain is a bleeder
We've been sliding down a blade
Countless numbers to the grave
What if God is a believer
But burning in the flames
And the devil owns every brain yeah
In the corridors of hope
the hangman with a rope
Preparing his gallows with laughter
Ambitious like the wind
there's a wave blowing in
Another revolution and leader
Inside my sky the clouds that cry
Blocking the vision from my eyes
Insoluble maze for the human race
But still we chase and dream in the blindness
No rest for the soul in a world losing kindness
We are sailing on a sea of strain and darkness
No light to show the way
But I rock this ship of madness
As the crashing waves of death are passing by oh
Till the day I die
Going down with my flag held high
Is there an answer to this mystery
We came from far away but we lost the key
How can it be
We wanna see oh yeah
Welcome to the new world order
Where everyone becomes the same
Soon there'll be no open borders
Only one culture shall remain
Every son and every daughter
Don't you know your hearts were sold
To the beast that made you a stalker
Of a life in material cold
And you dream in the blindness
We're losing kindness
Sinking slow in a deep black hole
I walked away
Lande/Del Vecchio/Mularoni
Once I was a rebel living in a dream
Breaking young girls hearts I could be so mean
I used to be strung out and lost in a trance
Now I look back at those days like a bad romance
My life is loaded with those dark memories
And still I'm haunted by that cold winter's breeze
I was causing so much sorrow and pain
Until I found the sun and reached out of the rain
I had to walk away
From the man I used to be
Yeah I walked away
From a life in misery
Had to clear my clouded heart to see a brighter day
I walked away
Yes I walked away
I remember the reverend’s daughter
Brought up on holy water
Hallelujah such a sweet wild thing
I couldn't stop my desire so I set the woman on fire
Made her promises but my love was a lie
I was loaded when she broke the news she said
You are the devil that brought me the blues
That woman left me in a wicked state of mind
When I woke up next morning I felt half dead and blind
She had to walk away
From the man she didn't need
Ooh she walked away
From a love not meant to be
There was something wrong from the start
And she just could not stay
She walked away from me
Ooh I had to walk away
From the man I used to be
I walked away
From a life in misery
Had to clean my blackened heart to find a brighter day
I walked away
I had to walk away
Walk away
It seems like only yesterday
Now I'm a better father brother friend and lover
The Slippery Slope
Lande/Del Vecchio
You'll drink from the grail of passion
If your heart feels dead
Temptation is the true revelation
Forget the rules you've read
It's in the hands of father time to seal the wounds you've bled
But it's the choice inside your mind to choose to live instead
Life is a lonely way
Born to dream and play
We have to seize the day
And learn to stay
Are you turning your back on your broken will
Restore the power cause there's fire still
Never close your eyes on the roads of hope oh no
Speeding fast away from the hangman's rope
Life is a slippery slope
It's been so hard to cope
You'll eat from the golden table
Howling with the wolves you're with
Once you were a child so innocent
Till someone broke your head
At the feast with the beast and all the lies
Dark roads wait up ahead
Then comes another new sensation
A revolution for the led
All the games we hate to play
But still we turn and stay
Got to go all the way
Let's burn another day
Are you turning your back on your broken will
Restore the power cause there's fire still
Never close your eyes on the roads of hope no
Speeding fast away from the hangman's rope
Life is a slippery slope
Oh Don't turn your back on your broken will
We can grow desire there's fire still
Hey have you closed your eyes to the roads of hope
Time to cut loose from the noose of the hangman
The hangman's rope
Keep swinging the hammer to break the ice
Break out of the coldness that makes you sacrifice
A new beginning under the sun
Life has just begun
The devil you can drive
Lande/Del Vecchio/Mularoni
We need a devil we can drive
To control the beast inside
Demon machine gonna lift us high
Our ambition is pushing us to the sky
Gonna burn and fly
Material man with his greedy mind
Breeding thoughts of the darkest kind
Building memories of a life in crime
You know his heart is mine
Burning strong my firewar
I am warrior to the core
Like the howling wind I scream on
Born on soaring wings of dreams
I'm a glider through the schemes
Taken over by machines
But my spirit stays unbroken
And my dragon heart flies free yeah
It's the fire in me
The world is a digital spider
Spinning its bridges to hell
Sold our souls to the decider
Losing hearts to the wishing well
How can we break the spell
Give us a lifetime to appreciate
Away from trouble we still navigate
Steady on the wheel don't let your mind break
You'll know which way to take
On this road of compromise
We must burn and sacrifice
Eyes of vision skies that dream on yeah
After clouds have gathered round
Pouring rain on every frown
There's a rainbow to be found
And your blackened heart will open
People preach about the light
And what they believe is right
But your heart will talk to you don't let it lie
One more bullet from a soldier's hand
Expendable troops fighting for the land
Another victory for the general in command
Sons and daughters
Sacrificed for the masterplan
Bleeding in the sand
Eat the blame and stay alive
Swallow evil to survive
We all need a devil we can drive
To speed from the pain inside
Without a safety rope
We are hanging by the hope
Still believing as we stride on yeah
And when the wolves are at the door
But you cannot give them more
Keep your faith and fight the war
Let the truth be spoken
Holding strong my firewall
I am fortress till I fall
And I'll sing my songs for you until I die
You'll hear me cry
