Gotta Enjoy
A Rainy Day In Bergen 
Album Track 6 

--------------Lyrics--------------
All this time on earth and your not satisfied about the work you've done
All this time in there... what do you want...do you want from yourself?

No matter the people, no matter the words they're saying.
No matter the rules 'cause you gotta live your life for its sake.

You live a life you gotta enjoy, You gotta enjoy all this time.
And see what really matters : 
you live a life you gotta enjoy you gotta enjoy your good times.

Don't waste the chance, the chance you got  to breathe the flavours, the see the lights 
to make you enhance, to enhance your feelings, your thoughts, your story, your mind
'cause you were born to live in joy, you oughta be glad for all your time.
And see what really matters :
you live a life you gotta enjoy you gotta enjoy your good times

Don't waste your chance, yeah, it's easy to spot 
and stop tearing your heart out !

Thinking of what you did not reach is stealing the time for what you got
Restraining ouselves from loving much is caging our hearth into a hutch.

The bell is ringing to take your attention, forget to chase the undoable perfection!
Take all the best you find in your world, before it's late, before you're old !
As you live your days, you craft your life, and on this path it comes to sight
Just make a smile and see how it shines and you won't get lost in the dark of the night


Remember your reasons of joy and start living your good times !
That's what really matters : 
you live a life you gotta enjoy, you gotta enjoy all this time!

Gotta Enjoy

Struggling For Breath
A Rainy Day In Bergen 
Album Track 3 

------------Lyrics---------------
A daily lovely endearment, a simple sip of life
then a peaceful warm shelter, a tender place to stay

No, no no!
How could so much love cause such a suffering ...suffering … ?
How...How could such a goodness be a scene of struggling … ...struggling for breath?

I would have been an angel to fly to you,
you, too much alone, to much defenceless,
and to hear your sighs, to hear you so powerless.
To give you strenght, to give you air to breathe
to turn your face towards the life and give you heat

No!
How could so much love cause such a suffering ...suffering … ?
How...How could such a goodness be a scene of struggling … ...struggling for breath?
For breath, for breath, against death.

That last missed breath wiped out your light 
from the eyes of who were ready to fight
with joys and sorrows of your life 
but not at this point not in this time

How could so much love cause such a suffering ...suffering … ?
How could such a goodness be a scene of struggling … ...struggling for breath?
For breath, for breath, against death.

Children On Birthday
A Rainy Day In Bergen  
Namesake Album Track 8 

---------- Lyrics ---------------
Never knew I could feel this way 
like a child on his birthday

Reflecting the colours you see
your eyes are like stars, they are shining,
lighting and heating and giving me
life and energy,
not blinding but warming me.
The one you'll be trusting in
that's all I wanna be

Your shy smile conceals 
a magic to stop the time,
and even if it is so familiar to me
it’s still charming me
while you’re making me a gift of it

Reflecting the colours you see
your eyes are like stars, they are shining,
lighting and heating and giving me
life and energy,
not blinding but warming me.
The one you'll be trusting in
that's all I wanna be

And I'll stay here.
I'll stay like
a child on birthday,
driven by my heart.
Now it feels at home 
like I never believed I could
	
Reflecting the colours you see
your eyes are like stars, they are shining,
lighting and heating and giving me
life and energy,
not blinding but warming me.
The one you'll be trusting in
that's all I’m gonna be !

Our hopes and promises
are feelings we touch
and blend into our tight hands.

So they give birth to a dream,
they realize our wishes,
they state a sense to our lives.

In the time of one step, 
in the time of one glance,
we become two children on birthday

Perhaps
A Rainy Day In Bergen 
Album  Track 1

--------- Lyrics ----------
Perhaps we are stronger,
perhaps we've become it,
perhaps the mass can make a difference
and the light inside us all could be enough.

Perhaps I shoundn't resign
what I fear is there over my eyes
but projected in the time...
and oh yes, if it's really like this
we did not realize how much we're strong
and how much we care!
...we care, yeah we care!

But we know we are clever to play a cheat to someone,
'cause we know we're more clever to play a cheat to ourselves
believing everything's gonna be alright.

What we are searching for is
a fresh reality embracing our will
on a sunny day in that warm
that everyone wants to feel,
there, next to the sun.
...next to the sun...
...next to the sun...
...next to the sun!

But I'm full of hope today!
I dream of a sunny day,
what everyone wants!

I'm full of hope today,
a brand new place to stay,
what everyone wants

I'm full of hope today!
I dream of a sunny day,
what everyone wants!

I'm full of hope today!
a brand new place to stay...
Don't cheat our will 'cause we know that
sweat and work are waiting for us all.

Grey Haze
A Rainy Day In Bergen
Album Track 4

--------- Lyrics ----------
you keep grey haze around me
i think you're guessing what i mean
there's something in your breath that makes me hate your hiss
you can't ignore it's just there through your lips

so claim your glow!
it's your life so clear it!
keep control
you still perceive it!
trust my faith
escape that masquerade!
escape that masquerade!

Escape the grey haze now
Escape the grey haze now
Escape the grey haze now for good!

so claim your glow!
it's your life so clear it!
keep control
you still perceive it!
trust my faith
escape that masquerade!
escape that masquerade!

but you weren't born in that haze
why would you wrap it around your brain
you say you can't control that cancer inside you
you're lyin' and killin' every breathe you do

so claim your glow!
it's your life so clear it!
keep control
you still perceive it!
trust my faith
escape that masquerade!
escape that masquerade!

Grey Haze

Someone here shut those questions, please!
They don’t let me sleep while I’m here,
lying on my bed

I can’t really understand
if the words I’ m hearing are 
something I’ve already read.
Do I live in a book I already read?

My life, my conscience, my mind :
it has left

It has left, it was like a nymph
guiding me through the storm of my questions.
It has left, it was like a nymph
guiding me through the storm of my questions

And I wish I had 
I wish I knew 
And I wish I had
I wish I knew 
And I wish I had 
I wish …I wish… I wish!

One more year is ending :
the first one I really lived at all
and I feel my hardest bane.
Ain’t got no scary dreams to keep me awake,
but my life that seems 
nothing but a big mistake
Hey, I hope it’s only a big mistake!

My life, my conscience, my mind,
my ego, my balance… It has left. 
It has left… It has left…

I don’t even know if 
I’m dividing me between two realities
or If I live in a big farce,
but my only certainty 
is the love I receive 
and the one I give
but only for today.
…but only for today…

So guide me through the storm of my questions!
It has left, it was like a nymph
guiding me through the storm of my questions

And I wish I had
I wish I knew 
And I wish I had 
I wish I knew 
And I wish I had 
I wish …I wish… I wish!

It Has Left

A Thousand Universes
A Rainy Day In Bergen
Namesake Album Track 5

---------- Lyrics --------------- 
Do you know there's a thousand universes ?
A million lights above your face
A million fires over your fate

So you know it 
but why are you still there ?
...still there, still there, still there, still there

Through a million worlds
there's a billion people
living in each room of a darkened castle.
What you can see or you can imagine
is a little bit of everything is possible

If you live your world
boxed in your own room
you cannot be sure you lived enough time.
What you can touch or you can realize,
is a little bit of everything is true

So let you be the one who leaves it
the one who leaves it,
let you be the one who comes back
…who comes back to his world …world…
It’s your thousand universes!

And if your world fails
to make you feel at home,
you’ll have to leave it all behind you
and check your other chances

Uh there's a thousand universes.
It’s your thousand universes.

Through a million worlds
there's a billion people
living in each room of a darkened castle.
What you can see or you can imagine
is a little bit of everything is true

So let you be the one who leaves it
the one who leaves it,
let you be the one who comes back
…who comes back to his world …world…
It’s your thousand universes!

A Thousand Universes

(A storm is in my head
and) my thoughts
turn to grey (in a hurry)

I don't mind that I'm getting lost
In a numb wrap cutting my wings

Diming out the lights above me 
I don't see where to…
Diming out the lights above me 
I don't see where to…
Where to turn my eyes, my sight
To make my way to

Storms here in my hearth
tend to fade out
like they do in the summer

So suddenly I'm feeling close
To everyone and everything

Now I see a smile on my face 
A new energy takes all me, 
Body and soul
Now I see a smile on my face this known energy
Is will to do ,is will to live, is also  
Will to love 

Yes, the answer is probably
The same as my guess
The same as my guess
All my quiet now comes from chaos :
That's the fun in it
That's the fun in it

My Way To

Look at the world we're livin' in :
the scenes we'd never want to see
are there engraved in our eyes.
Are we all paying for our lies?

And all the feelings we conceal
are more and more the worst to feel.
We try to cure ourselves from pains
but a fire inside remains…

…together with our stupid lies ;
like cats they run after us : mice
suffering the chase in their not committal
run, regardless they're so little.

I got worried about everything, 
everything, everything I see.
I got worried for everyone, 
everyone, everyone I care
…and then for me... what else have I got to see?
There is no cure for this reality !

So the fire burns us from the inside ;
our behaviour is still trying to hide…

…but every omission that we make,
it's clear, is just one more mistake.
It's time to look farther than our noses
before our sudden end blows up!

I get worried about everything, 
everything I see
I get worried for everyone, 
everyone I care
..and then for me... what else have I got to see?
There is no cure for this reality !

…No cure for this reality (x8)
Hey he-hey, what else have I to see?

No cure for this reality (x2)
Hey he-hey, what else have I to see?

Just look at the world we're livin' in :
the scenes we'd never want to see
are here engraved in our eyes.
Are all we paying for our lies?

What else have we got to see?
...There is no cure for our reality!

Worried About Everything

Lord Time 
I'm already grown
then I'll age and die
No, I don't want 
to live the real things,
but I want 
to dream 
as much as possible  !

Oh no 
not beyond tomorrow I'll se !
My reasons are fool, 
my ideas are strange 
and now I know 
what I'll do… 
yes, but not beyond tomorrow !

And i will live today, 
like it's gonna be the only one to come 
and tomorrow as the last one left
And i will keep my dreams with me 
asking them to stay the course again (again again again) 
Sayin : “No, not beyond tomorrow I'll se!” (yeah-hey) 
Now all my reasons are fool, 
my ideas are strange 
and now I know 
what I'll do… 
yes, but not beyond to…
yes, but not beyond to…
yes, but not beyond tomorrow !

A Rainy Day In Bergen

Not Beyond Tomorrow

I wake up from a long sleep nothing here seems to be in place
when i woke up everything was there
oh yeah back to its wrong place
i justify myself for what i've done
i justify myself but i regret

backwards a lustrum or a decade life has never changed
it's all the same : me and everything around me
everything back to its wrong place
time has kidded me
what it's worth acting like things have ever changed?

i soak up all of my pains now that my great wall has has crumbled
and i woke up from every “Me” i dreamt 
taking him back in its wrong place

backtracking history through the decades realize we never changed
it's still the same : us and all the world around yeah
everything fits just its wrong place
and men like fitting fears
keeping on acting like things have really changed again

my young times words still fit me well , it's not a moment of my life
the old mad gods still fit men well , it's not a question of time
if older words still hit my shell
it's not a moment of … it's not a question of … mine

everything back to its wrong place

Mathmind

Everything In Its Wrong Place

from a barren hinterland far away in search of the sea
flowing weak, limp and faint  discovering and covering its right place
channels, vains, scattered pebbles, stones in grains
are the wrinkles on my skin
on my skin , on my skin , 
discovering and covering my own space

and, now millennial rivers, i’m aged to merge into you and into your sea, 
flowing through millennial rivers, i’m bringing awareness afloat, 
i’m ready to be merging into the sea and making it our sea 
i’m merging into the sea and making it blood for me

times of drought are memories of the hardest part of my story of the early years 
i’m ready to be merging into the sea 
and making it blood and making it blood for me

driven by nature, by its own nature like the river i naturally genuinely became what i am
driven by mother nature, by its volatile nature 
like the river i slowly, steadily, barely became what i am
what I am 

i’m ready to be… be merging into... the sea 
I’m ready yeah !

The River

Don’t get confused, nature’s what’s fascinating us
Math’s only a language, merely a language, even if it has a style
Don’t get confused, there’s still some nature charming us
Maths show its elegance but it has got no beauty inside
Beauty is abused, but colors are still embarassing us
Surrunder the warmth of nature ! You see it 
expressing itself through digits and ciphers
while in the sudden silences the warmth resides

But I am the math mind . I don’t take myself so seriously… when I write, when I feel, yeah!
Join me in the “mathkind” . I don’t take myself so seriously… when I feel and even when I count !
On the other hand I’m wondering if I take life too much seriously. 
And if my better effort’s on a touch screen, could a calculator be my better sheet ? 

Maths show its elegance, maths show its style
Don’t get confused, nature is what is fascinating us
there’s still some nature
Surrunder the warmth of nature you see it  !
 
Can’t stand approaching art and kindness so sparingly, and even cursorily
Through stone cold means facing the shortness of breath
with the constant and hounding concern 
about stealing time to a matter made emptiness and to its shade 
hanging on your neck 
distracting , deflecting you  
pushing you to loose contact,  
pushing you to close that window 
pushing you to loose, pushing you to close
hanging on your neck

And now I wish myself away
the lesser evil, from day to day
it sure is not what you prefer
but neither is the hitch you fear

so do it on your own yeah
all i can do is nothing
decide from your own our fate
'cause I close my eyes and go

I lapse into a sad soundtrack
what's the difference after all
Drugs for the masses do not work on me
plan just a little more to work on...

...On your own yeah
all i can do is nothing
decide from your own our fate
'cause I close my eyes and go

should i thank you  for playing me along  
once again and for being alive ?
i'm not so dumb !

Do It On Your Own

Ciphers - Ciphers, items, and lots of stuff
Impressions of the others - Impressions, others, never enough

Senses of belonging through group identity
Sentenced and addicted to decadence
Customers developing big brand equities
building up a daily sense of stillness
filling up a daily sense of stillness  building up a plastic made sense of wellness 

Ciphers - Ciphers, items, and lots of stuff
Impressions of the others - Impressions, others, never enough
Senses of belonging through group identity
building up a plastic made sense of wellness 

In the bare emptiness of our being : Stillness in life
In the bare sadness of not living : stillness in time, 
I am seeing stillness in society culture and in economy
In the fake wellness of my being stillness is mine
In the bare emptiness of not living : Stillness in life
In the lonely sadness of my being : stillness is mine, 

We lost the will of doing something pleasant
We do, we make, but we're chasing no purposes
I lost the Sense of doing something pleasant
I do, I make, but we're chasing no purposes
I lost the will of doing something pleasant for me

All is still, our humor gets still 
and romances follow
that’s how they wanted us to be.

I lost the sense of pleasure for doing something pleasant for ...

Stillness

this place is swallowing me 
as it resizes me it resizes everything 
my universal mindset bringing it to its tiny build
a course of cutting off space for the righteous ones the ascending energies
for the upright men and too many fervous minds
there in the cold, in the dark they intone : “That’s what remains of belcanto !"
a tumble down open air museum : belcanto
here in the heath, in the light against your companions blind
start your day with your daily fight 
(“That’s what remains) of belcanto !"
(re re re re) resizing everything 
“That’s what remains of belcanto !"... belcanto !"
(re re re re) resizing everything
“That’s what remains of bel-canto !"... belcanto !"
in the heath, in the light against your companions blind
start your day with your daily fight 
(“That’s what remains) of belcanto !"

you’d better you’d better believe you can be anything better elsewhere (X2)
we’re not heroes, we’re just naturally selected idiots , 
(we’re not heroes - we’re not heroes )
i’m keeping tight that slavery livery someone desires for its sake through inhuman fights, 
so keep it tight that slavery livery someone desires you to wear to fuck written rights
we’re not heroes yeah we’re not heroes 
that’s why we’d better fly... away from heat and light... and what reminds of belcanto

Bel Canto

Hating my blood, Losing my faith
Fattening up chewing a few chops a day
Feeling my backbone refusing my shoulders
Crushed by the weight of my commitment

I am living their lives, I’m not living mine
I am bearing the columns of their naughty mood
and I’m wasting my hours in a counterclock night

The guardian angel, a shoulder to cry on
A cipher in an underserved amount
A voice to shout both dreams and pains
A pretence for the ambitions or a puppy to feed

I am living their lives, I’m not living mine
I am bearing the columns of their naughty mood
and I’m wasting my hours in a counterclock night

Counterclockwise
Walking toward the end
Maybe clockwise
I see a slower daylight
Counterclockwise
Looking through the darkness
Maybe clockwise
I can see a starlight

Their Lives Not Mine

New Year's Day

An unusual guitarist-free line-up , a band with an original sound with disparate influences going from
classical to electronica. A  listening experience recalling the sensation of a travel through a dreamy
dark atmosphere, like living an ordinary rainy day in the cloudy city of Bergen.
Project, started in 2006 with the name Underscore expressing “A mixture of alternative-electro new wave
and prog rock with an absolutely not banal pop attitude” , characterized by “an absolutely recognizable and
out of ordinary sound”, getting its best through “songs taking who wants in an oniric atmosphere”.
The sinthesis of the observation that “something magical, apparentyly untraceable but only perceptible
exists and persists into the band's reality, something allowing it to glow of a light different from the others' ”
declares this band to be “an unusual phaenomenon of today's music scene”, “a pearl of the italian music
scene, maybe unique”

--ITALIANO--
Una singolare line-up che non prevede la figura del chitarrista, una band dal sound originale con influenze disparate dalla classica all'elettronica. Un  viaggio attraverso una sognante atmosfera dark, come aver vissuto un ordinario giorno di pioggia nell'uggiosa Bergen.
Progetto attivo dal 2006 a nome Underscore che esprime una “Una miscela di alternative-electro new wave e prog rock infarcita di attitudini pop per nulla banali ” , caratterizzata da “un sound assolutamente riconoscibile e fuori dall’ordinario” il cui prodotto sono “canzoni che trasportano chi ne ha voglia in un’atmosfera onirica” .
La sintesi dell’osservazione che “esiste e persiste all'interno della realtà della band qualcosa di magico ed irrintracciabile apparentemente, soltanto percepibile, qualcosa che permette a questo gruppo di brillare di una luce diversa dalle circostanti.” definisce la band come “un fenomeno inconsueto nel panorama musicale attuale “, “una chicca nel panorama musicale italiano del genere, forse unica.” .
