No songs for a father's death.
I look at my child sleeping warmingly and well
I see those gray eyes and I know what is next
Wrinkles on face and weakness in legs
No songs for a father's death
The time is elastic, a flexible pattern which brings our souls over separating our bodies
I look at my old man, he is struggling hard
No songs for a father's death
Yell to your brain to don't forget my eyes or my face. Scream at the top of your lungs, you don't need to regret...
No songs for my father's death.

Bleeding Teeth Blues
It was late at night digging in my pockets I felt some rolling papers and chicken feet
I thought this was enough to have some cheap company, someone who could pay at least a drink
Then all those shadows are the things remaining here
Saw children singing songs about a scary fat man who looks at them when they go to sleep
They've told me about revenge, phycological distress and other ways for inflicting pain
Then all those shadows are the things remaining here
What I remember It's me, face on the ground and in mouth metalic taste cuz my bleeding teeth
Those kids threw punches at me, leaving me down on my knees, laid on the ground till I fell asleep
Then all those shadows are the things remaining here.

The view in the mirror reminds us we're older.
The children of today are becoming soldiers.
The present is over, the future is pain, when nothing really matters it´s what matters to me
The future is pain and the present is over.
Naked feet, heavy weight on shoulders. Moms carrying babies crossing borders.
The kids can feel their hands getting clammy, men scared to death, walk around, slowly and silently.
The future is pain and the present is over, when nothing really matters it´s what matters to me...
The future is pain and the present is over, the future is pain and the present is over, the future is pain and the present is over for them...
Tell those moms to not be afraid, tell the babies to grow by themselves, tell the men to not be scared... tell them.
The bombs are falling, we watch it on TV and that means money for the land of the free. (x2)
The future is pain and the present is over, the future is pain and the present is over, the future is pain and the present is over for them. (x2)

Demon's Catcher

I didn't invite you but you sat down anyway,
I saw a red sky when I woke up today.
This world it is a hell itself, this world it is a hole in hell.
You don´t know who I am but you´ve been inside of me,
you get inside with overwhelming pain.
This world it is a hell itself, this world it is a hole in hell.
And I piss on the fire yes I piss on the fire,
cuz I´m a pissed off demon. Fire.
You didn't banish me but I made a run myself,
I came to feel a cold breath back on my neck.
This world it is a hell itself, this world it is a hole in hell.
And I piss on the fire yes I piss on the fire,
cuz I´m a pissed off demon. Fire.
Everybody has their own escape from hell.
A demon's catcher knocked at my door one day,
he told me "son, now her soul belongs to me".
This world it is a hell itself, this world it is a hole in hell.

Last Meal At The Dawn Of The Day.
Oh
Hold on
Candles burn till the morning, but morning is the end
You will gobble down your last meal at the dawn of the day
Oh
Hold on
What a mess! Blood is boiling when running through your veins
All the limits you're drawing, blowing...are the rules of the end.
Oh
Hold on
All what's new is a new given chance
All that's new can be as bad as a non revealed pain which is coming from nowhere... Coming from nowhere

Black Toska Madrid, Spain
/ˈtō-skə/
"At its deepest and most painful, it is a sensation of great spiritual anguish, often without any
specific cause. At less morbid levels it is a dull ache of the soul, a longing with nothing to long for, a sick pining, a vague restlessness, mental throes, yearning. In particular cases it may be the desire for somebody of something specific, nostalgia, love-sickness"
Vladimir Nabokov.
