I went to war
Eighteen and strong
In foreign land, looking for the light.
Made of weakness
Walk the Darkness
I’m made of bones, flesh, spirit and blood.
Lost in the battlefield
Only smell of Death
Taken by fear, no glory, just pain.
I don’t know who
I’m anymore
Rain can never wash away that grin.
When I’ll come back home
I would have lost… My soul.
My youth will be burned. After the War.
And a landmine
Ripped my two legs
Burned off my ears and took my hands
Live in the dregs
Wasted my youth
I’m just a drag, hopeless for life
When I’ll come back home
I would have lost… My soul.
My youth will be burned. After the War.
Can’t get back my ears
My limbs, my youth is… So far.
Nights are made of fear. After the War.

FORTUNATO - Evil Machine

Evil Machine... Dark Creatures...
A Pentagram
Scarred on the chest
Circles of chalk, ancient chants
A Pentagram
Showing some faith
But not in god no
Under a dim light
Only hope is bright
There's no place for doubt... Right ?
You left me no choice
Now just enjoy the show
Let's summon Hell... Hell
Hear me Lilith. As - mo - de - us
Grant my wishes. Ohoho
Evil Machine... To fall in love
Dark creatures... Unholy curse
A Pentagram
Scarred on the chest
Wanting to find a lost soul
A Pentagram
Burning the flesh
Easing the heart from its pain
We signed for life
Yet you left me, and I've
Been caught in a long... Night
No one would help
But the darkness inside
My personal Hell... Hell
Hear me Lilith. As - mo - de - us
Bring back my love. Ohoho
Hear me Lilith. As - mo - de - us
What have I done. Ohoho
Evil Machine... Untamed power
Dark creatures... Unholy curse
Evil Machine... Deceiving Church
Dark creatures... Unholy curse

Just What We Have
05:12

In order to give anything
We must have it
Because in despair time may bring
I not to quit
Yes we can't give love if we don't
Have it for ourselves
When we are in emotional
Dependance (or) something else
I want to shine
And walk the line
But we can give
Just what we have
Do not wait to fill our lacks
Love is nothing
Timelines cannot replace hard facts
No love laughing
Let's not idealize the loved one
Only live happiness
The end of time will just begin
And only emptiness
I want to shine
And walk the line
But we can give
Just what we have
We must not fall into anger
Evil trial and danger
And we feed our hurts
Such a blessing or a curse
Dull addiction on the other
Then want to watch another
Do not require or tie
Just in silence love can die
Tying can only be a step
To lead us to really true love
Then you have to restore
All the missing you deplore
I'm going to raise respect
Bound by my own pride to connect
I want what I've to grip
So great love relationship

Today I lived a million of dreams
Feeling like someone wakes and screams
Lost all my friends, several tens
I wanted to merge my life into yours
Lost all fires, my desires
My great love closed all the doors.
My Sky At Night
Remote horizon in my open hands
Tiny Small Light
Drowned in ocean of sands
My Sky At Night
Looking for your vision beyond the wait
Tiny Small Light
The lack of you is too late
The good time when our hands were joined
How many tales to please me hath she coined
I was so blind, what's on my mind
That is surely what she must to prefer
Her wings covered the light of the day
I stay alive just for her.
My Sky At Night
Remote horizon in my open hands
Tiny Small Light
Drowned in ocean of sands
My Sky At Night
Looking for your vision beyond the wait
Tiny Small Light
The lack of you is too late
Her light is innocence
Her heat's my only defense
My world depends on her eyes
Everything was so wise.

I gave my soul to a wonder
My body drifts as a wanderer
I want to retrieve this heat
Feel again my heart beat
Somebody to share my destiny
That my life sounds as a melody
Somebody to follow the same way
And finally find a place to stay
I still want to fly Fade in the blue sky
My soul is falling and I'm dried out
Hiding my feelings and all my doubts
Until my last breath my inner self...
Boundless Fantasy
The cold winds of the winter
Make me forget the sweet summer
And the cold air stings my bones
My sadness, heart of stone
I so needed your hand to guide me
My tears of sadness drowned in the sea
I so needed your eyes (to) warm my way
But this utter love has flown away
I still want to fly Fade in the blue sky
My soul is falling and I'm dried out
Hiding my feelings and all my doubts
Until my last breath my inner self...
Boundless Fantasy

FORTUNATO - If You Die
04:38
|

|
Silent screams freeze my heart
As she leaves with blue & gloomy flashing lights
And I’m standing here, too stunned to cry
I ain’t no kid, I know the stakes are high…
If I live and if you die,
My darling I swear that I’ll…
I’ll take of everything my love
You’ll be proud from high above
A little boy in the house of God
Lights a candle for mom stays alive
And two little girls who don’t get it all
Don’t dare to ask me if mom will die…
If I live and if you die,
My darling I swear that I’ll…
I’ll take of everything my love
You’ll be proud from high above
If I Live and If you die,
(My) Darling Don’t worry I’ll…
I’ll take of everything my love
You’ll be proud from high above
Tears are meant to ease the pain or so they say
What if there’s no tear to shed ?

FORTUNATO - Arise !
04:54

Life is a bitch that sometimes will try
To make you kneel till you wish to die
But if you don't let it wipe its ass with your pride
You will shine and you'll see just how wonderful you are
Come what may I will be there
Through heaven and hell
Call me If you want to let go
Call me You will never walk alone
Try to believe in your inner light
Trust your instinct and follow your path
I can see everyday the strength that beats in your heart
Look at yourself the way I see you, I know you can
Come what may I will be there
Through heaven and hell
Call me If you want to let go
Call me You will never walk alone
Arise and walk!
Call me If you want to let go
Call me You will never walk alone
Call me If you want to let go
Call me I won't let you walk alone

I'm learning to live
With these memories
And all you could give
That made our stories.
I can really grown old
Without forgetting
But I'm not a stone cold,
I keep all my feelings.
A few sudden revolutions
Day after day
Absolutions step by step.
I will take pleasure until my death...
Freedom last illusion of my faith...
I'm learning to live
With all these grim lacks
How can (the) mind forgive
Shows of divine acts.
I savor all the pleasures
Day after day, one by one
As if they were treasures,
The end has just begun.
I'm finding joy in that retreat
Day after day
It's nice and sweet step by step.
I will take pleasure until my death...
Freedom last illusion of my faith...

Now more than before
I think of you a lot
In my mind even more
All the pain forgotten
All the time, in my dreams, my only crime
I struggle through heavy mist, my stream of tears
Warm heart, love wish
The years go by but true love remains
High in the sky and no complaints
Storms can come
Trying to pull me away
And my heart will be hooked on you
Although you've gone away
I still think of you
I wanna mourn away
What I feel about you
Never stopped loving you over the top
But I lost you, I had no chance in that wicked game
Storms can come
Trying to pull me away
And my heart will be hooked on you
Even hell
Could not prevent me
From your spell
Down on my knees
I will love you for eternity
And my heart will always be yours
Storms can come
Trying to pull me away
And my heart will be hooked on you

Do you remember
Sad city lights
Getting tender
Still of twilights
My dream of death in my heart
Reminds me how it all start
Summer gives up
In an open sigh
To blow it up
Just Before my eyes
Trip to the edge of the night
A long wait for morning light
In moments of sorrow the spark
Will be forgiven
This moment of weakness pull me
To glimpse of Heaven
I'm like a blind man in the dark
To much hard pain
This moment of weakness push me
Where I am fallen
In fallen heat
When day's fading
Run in the street
Without waiting
In moments of sorrow the spark
Will be forgiven
This moment of weakness pull me
To glimpse of Heaven
I'm like a blind man in the dark
To much hard pain
This moment of weakness push me
Where I am fallen
And my heart beats so hard
Qualm from my so close graveyard
I need to enjoy a little more
Just before it's all over
People looks like dirty folks
Innocence and holy smokes
In moments of sorrow the spark
Will be forgiven
This moment of weakness pull me
To glimpse of Heaven
I'm like a blind man in the dark
To much hard pain
This moment of weakness push me
Where I am fallen
