about

This is a tale where the Castles are made of concrete…. From the beginning this world has been ruled by circles of people from different doctrines or associations. Religions, Emperors, Pharaohs, Kings from the Middle Age, Lords, Dictatorships, Secret Societies, Politicians, petrol, weapon or pharmaceutical industries…. In the end all makes perfect sense: Money. We all are like sheep working for these non-scruple humans, and only us can reveal against them.

lyrics

In a foggy part of a crazy land
There’s a funny lord, you can say no word
Stay and throw your thoughts in an empty heap
Will you realize you’ve become their sheep?

In the hills of the Towermen
You could wish and say “Amen”
Make your prayers for your lovely “Saint”
In a crowded party of sheep

No more lands of opportunities
No fight for the right
Concrete towers in our little towns
Built on flesh and bones

My Lord
Another day goes by in our paradise

Escape from the great quiz for the lunatic
If you don't feel part of this grey old fake
Mother Nature's wise, even she is awake
Why do we stay and wait for the Big Earthquake?

In the streets of the sweet old world
Big tall towers on a dusty ground
long dark shadows growin' all at once
'til goats turn back gazes all for one

No more lands of opportunities
No fight for the right
Concrete towers in our little towns
Built on flesh and bones

My Lord
Another day goes by in our paradise
