Ready
I'm ready for the race of my life
But the sun is in my eyes  
    
Steady
I’m steady and I know it’s my time
To be the first to cross the line
    
Unleash the power of my ride
I’m free to do what I decide

Take it to the edge - let the tires burn
I will never rest until I’ve become the best
Take it to the edge - in that final turn 
I make final checks just as I reach apex
	
Ready  
I’m ready for the moment to shine
And my car revs up to nine
    
Steady
I’m steady and I'm eager to fight
To run fast and reach the light
  
Take it to the edge - let the tires burn 
(I feel the force of inertia)
I will never rest until I’ve become the best
Take it to the edge - in that final turn 
(I’m on the brink of exertion)
I make final checks just as I reach apex

Take it to the edge

I feel the night is seeping in
Have you already let it win?
I know the dawn is close at hand
But never quite in reach 

I keep the dark from sweeping in
How close has it ever been?
I know the storm is sure to pass
Steel your mind until it does

You said a spark is all we are
I found my one and only star 

Finding the wonder of your light
Was always pure chance
(On that empty street near the lonely bridge)
Blinding is the colour of your eyes
They left me in a trance
(On that empty street near the lonely bridge)

I know the star is fading fast
How long can it ever last?	   
I need the light you shone on me
How else will I ever cope?

On that empty street near the lonely bridge (x2)

Preludio Piccolo (2010)

She knows you’re all torn up inside
Is that why you hesitate?
Your fear is still black and disguised
Don’t you let her wait

Angels might come down 
And tell you to…

Take the shot
Whether you want it to or not
Take the shot
It seems like you better take the shot

It strikes you as a blow to the head
Don’t think it will dissipate
It’s time now to make up your mind 
Don’t you get there late

She knows you’re out for the kill
And that’s what will feed the thrill

Take the shot 
And make it count

Take the shot

I meet her in school
My only fuel is self-esteem
I take her aside
But lose her like a fragile dream

The taste of her smile
And all my senses drift away
I fall into her eyes
And now I find myself astray

When her eyes lock with mine
I always hope it's a sign

Josie goes to my school
We got to stick together
Let us break all the rules
And leave this place forever

I see her outside
I guess she must be late again
But she does not run
She only cares about her friend

I think there's a way
A way to make her mine tonight
I just have to explain
How we will get out of here

Josie
Will it ever be the same with you?

Josie goes to my school

In this time of drastic plight
No-one will survive the stride
I am left on the other side
How can I make it back alive?

In a world of vapid lies
You and I have lost our mind
I am free yet so far away
How can I make it home in time?   

When you find me
I’ll be lost

I know a world
Without war, lies and greed
There is a place
We can have what we need

Rock me back to sleep
To that place within my dreams
Rush me back to see
See where freedom is real

In this state of urgency
No-one seems to know the link  
We are true yet so very false
How can we rid this doublethink?

In my dream I met a girl
Who wanted me to feel the skies
She told me how to see the world
And how to use my own two eyes 


Rock me back to sleep

Calmo

There’s no reason
No reason to hide
Take a look at the stars
That’s what we are made of

There's a people
A people in awe
Take a look at your life
It’s only you who can find you      

It came as a premonition
A single voice in the distance
I have this clairvoyant vision
To make us save in a whisper
   
The force of the world
Our vices are judged fast and faster
A warning is heard
And are you scared of what comes after?

An obedient herd
They are but slaves and think no longer
The ancient words
Which tell you there’s no time to linger

Open wide the floodgates of might
Open up the pathways of light 

Open wide the floodgates of might
And set her spirit free
Open up the pathways of light
And let them guide me

Tear it down the stronghold of lies 
And let the message out
Reaching out to billions of lives
And all of those in doubt  

All you hear
Save in a whisper

Anima Mundi, Anima Mundi
Anima Mundi, Anima Mundi
 
Steady now the balance of life
and let us it defend 
Waking up the billions of minds
and let this passage end

All over this world
Our vices are judged fast and faster
The omen is heard
And are you scared of what comes after?

A force of this world
Foretold of this one great disaster
A voice was heard
And are you scared of what comes after?

Where's the people
The people I trust?
Make a move to be free
It's only you who can bind you
