LOVE YOUR MOTHERLAND We were young and just ordinary men Didn’t think about the reason or the cause We were narrow-minded, looked straight ahead Never imagined that the world could explode Now we’re crying... Open up your eyes if you love your motherland Not the same as the one we lived in What have we avoided in our motherland For not loving the human being Is it time to pretend that we don’t care When a riot can give a chance to believe Revolution is not a trench warfare Give us your hand, there’s a freedom to retrieve And we’re crying... Open up your eyes if you love your motherland Not the same as the one we lived in What have we avoided in our motherland For not loving the human being

The Healer 03:54
THE HEALER Carry on, turn off the lights, it’s now or never Whatever it’s wrong or right, what does it change Don’t let the moon or the sun make your room brighter You will be the only one within my range Sing Hallelujah And chant as loud as you can I am the healer Man I clean all your lives I wash away all the tears in your eyes You’ll never cry while I’m alive I am the healer Wait, it’s not too late You will be able to change your own fate When I’ll be gone When I will be changed to dust at crack of dawn I’m an ethereal body, I am a medium In the dark you can see me, but you can’t touch Can you feel above your head a wave of freedom I’ll heal your mind with my hands, I’ll make it hush Peaceful forever It’s something you can’t command I am the healer Man I clean all your lives I wash away all the tears in your eyes You’ll never cry while I’m alive I am the healer Wait, it’s not too late You will be able to change your own fate When I’ll be gone When I will be changed to dust at crack of dawn

As 03:53
AS As I rode in the middle of nowhere Chased by daemons of eternity I found out a land without fear nor despair That would set me free again from misery As I sent a last goodbye to my friends Reassured them I wouldn't be alone I gripped my pilgrim rod in my right hand As I was just freed from my flesh and bones And I was so confident in seasons And I was full of joy and happiness You opened to me the doors of your mansion And you offered me a place to have some rest And you offered me a place to have some rest As I sat down at the right side of Jesus As I opened up successfully all the doors I heard His voice, It was so melodious And felt emotions nobody could ignore And I was so confident in seasons And I was full of joy and happiness You opened to me the doors of your mansion And you offered me a place to have some rest And you offered me a place to have some rest As I rode in the middle of nowhere Chased by daemons of eternity I found out a land without fear nor despair That would set me free again from misery That would set me free again from misery That would set me free again from misery

Almost Dead 03:25
ALMOST DEAD I thought you were almost dead, crying and lying on the stairs I cried, I lost my nerves, ran like a puppet everywhere The earth stopped turning But the sun rays were shining and they blessed You by illuminating your face I found myself almost dead so many days and many nights Petrified every time I tried to hold your body tight Guilty of a murder It's enough to shiver and to pray This will never happen again Now I believe in miracles And I thank the Lord every day But I find hard to hide my tears When your smile still remains Would you be almost dead if I dared to tell you the truth This is the price to pay, it's the less worst option I choosed You said to hide is to lie But I'd rather be blind than to see Myself in an abandoned place So I believe in miracles And I thank the Lord every day But I find hard to hide my tears When your smile still remains
