FORTRESS (Lyrics by L. Aguilar)
You walk in the street, people stare and they whisper
They notice the bruise in your eyes and they hold back their laughter
You live in your own world, encased in indifference
And you greet their judgment with tormented silence
Nowhere, there's no corner you can hide away
Somehow, you still can believe in yourself
Somewhere, there's a place where the flowers can grow and the walls are studded with gold
Let your visions run free
Out there, there's a fortress you can hide away
Somehow, you still can truly believe in yourself
They notice the dirt on your skin and they hold back their laughter
They cringe at the sight of blue tracks in your forearms
But that's all the difference between them and you...
Let your visions roam free
Out there, there's a castle you can dream away..
Solo break
(Bridge)
In your eyes love is not real
Life revolves around the pain... misery... damnation... humiliation
There is no place where there is sweet perfume and the walls are studded with gold...
(Outro)
Somewhere, there's a fortress you can fly away..
Somewhere...
Nowhere...

THE NIGHTINGALE (Music by P.Pederson/ Lyrics by P.Pederson, L.Michelutti)
Feeling unstable, logic unable
Up late at night surfing through all the satellite channels
Cause Im so afraid to sleep in the very bed we made
Dawn will be breaking, my heart is aching
Still havent found the best way around, these thoughts undertaking
Still searching to find, escape from my mind
And save you from the dark side of my dreams
Nothing to say, light of the day.
Brings a confession, youre my obsession
but threw me away
Bridge Solo
When push came to shove.we let go of love
Were over the edge, out on a ledge awaiting the fall.

BLUEPRINT FOR PERFECTION (Music by D.Raso/ Lyrics by L.Michelutti)
Everything's in line and uniform, picturesque in its design
Purposeful in placement with a master plan in mind
Every little change could be disaster
Any variable in plan could mean the end
(Chorus)
Wash my hands, cleanse my soul of all these sins, and over again
Nothing seems to be unusual, everything is making sense
And as long as were on schedule, theres no need to second guess
Any kind of hesitation ruins
Any kind of variable could mean the end
And to the understated few who understand
There is no turning back this time...
Over... over... And over again
HEAVEN (Music by D.Raso/ Lyrics by L.Michelutti)
Sunday wardrobe slipped my mind, but you....you heard the bells
We have only bombs to sound the roof, like rain from hell
Your world of illusions, the populations high
So unaware, must be heaven
Kickin' back and drinkin wine to toast your friends
Suicide and live grenades arrive, parading the streets.
As you entertain the thoughts of life eventually
No warnings of battle, the coast is looking clear
(Repeat Chorus)
Concrete jungles, slick guerillas hiding with their guns
While you adapt to the unknown under the sun
Your pleasant departure, away in outer space
Kickin' back and drinking wine to toast your friends
TALL AND BULLETPROOF (Music by D.Raso/Lyrics by L. Michelutti)
No more inside the darkness, like a freak
With cryptic words and phrases, a million faces, judging me
No more beside the warmth of the sea
New expectations coming to be
With all the world's persuasions, this ego's inflation is making me...
Chorus:
Tall and bulletproof with eyes like oceans, and a perfect walk
Moving me along in fluid motions
Tall and bulletproof with eyes like oceans (and popular, too)
With love the shadows faded away
The monster labels have been replaced
With acts of my heroic and adulation, making me
This could be anything but the truth
Another dream that feels absolute
Please tell me that theres no need to wake
From heavy sleep,
Oh, let me stay
BLOOD FROM A STONE (Music: D.Raso, Words: L.Michelutti)
Eyes enclosed in silence, something very deep
Hidden by emotions, ones you should not keep
We can't change the face of the world
Or always know just what to say... at least for today
Sounds like we should talk it over... I'd rather leave it alone
Finding joy in life without you... is like getting blood from a stone
You never seem to notice, words of love been said
You only seem to notice the mess inside your head
We can't stay like this for long, or turn back time and right the wrongs
And so it's on...
If you feel that you need love, then you need only ask
If you feel you don't need my love... Baby be kind..Baby be kind
Don't be condescending, some wounds never heal
Just stop over-reacting and learn how to feel
Sounds like we should talk it over
Ooohhhh....
OTHER SIDE ( P.Pederson/ L. Michelutti)
Sweet Alice laying next to me
When you fall asleep, let your imagination free
and you tell me... What do you see?
Let me look into your eyes, when you wake up in the morning
It comes as no surprise... without warning
So let the moment pass... see the looking glass from the other side
Just let the moment pass
Sweet, sweet Alice let me take your hand
When you hear the rabbit call, let me hold you when you fall
And I wonder where did you land
Just let the moment pass see the looking glass from the other side
Just let the moment pass (2x)
The sum of all your fears, are drowning in your tears...
PLAY (Lyrics by Paul Pederson/ Music by Oceans)
What can I do, what do I say
When my tongue is tied in knots
Wanting you but running away
Feeling lost inside these thoughts
I followed you into the dark
But the moment lost its spark
When I never said "I love you"
What would you do in my position
Can you forgive my sins of omission
Lying next to you just inches away
Oohh, can you come over and play
Who am I to even think
Fantasies could be made real
So here's the bottle... take a drink
Drowning everything I feel
FAST LIFE (Melody and lyrics by D. Raso)
Ten years went so fast / Twenty years lay in the past
Nothing left to fulfill / I can live life in a thrill
Thirty years I breath heavy / My life can't breach the levy
Nothing left to burn / Oh, my life took a turn
And I... Oh, I live a fast life
And I... I take a dive
But save the last dance for me
I seem much stronger / Though everything takes longer
Is there any satisfaction / This reflects in your reaction
Stubborness and irony / Living off reality
A product of my sins / Always someone else who wins...
Cleverness is always paid / I'm not lost I'm not afraid
It's coming to an end / It's pointless to pretend
Save the last dance... Save the last dance...
Save the last dance...
FALLING AT YOUR FEET (Music and lyrics by D.Raso)
You're invincible / That's what you think
You're incredible / Is this all you can bring
I can't stand this anymore
Driving in and out / Caught in a dead end
Come to think of it / Don't know if I comprehend
I want out, I want to disappear
I want to go away, go away
And when I'm falling at your feet / I can't loose these chains
That brings me to my knees
As I'm falling at your feet / I won't surrender, I won't retreat
When I'm falling at your feet
Enough is enough / You don't own me
You think you're tough / Your rudeness is all I see
I can't wait here any longer
You scrutinize me / You're starting to annoy
Demoralize me/ You treat me like a toy
When I'm falling at your feet / Where your world is so neat
Where agreements never meet / And I'm falling at your feet
