Crepuscularia (Agony In Red Minor) [Lyrics by:Fabrizio / Music by: Alex/ Andrea] Like a rose in bloom among the clouds A precious ruby flaring on celestial canvas Vermilion magma Carpet of fire, incandescent petals Drowsy sun lies down in a blood red sea A scarlet shroud in front of me Igneous flag Rusty water lilies float on wine Twilight is nothing but a blazing red dream A burning fresco work of art in magenta Duskier moth shall looms out of crimson winds To hang with black the sky Dark wings in stanched red coral lymph Battlefield drenched with blood Majestic slaughter Dusky sheeps graze on cerise meadow Zephyrus breeze Ridden by pollen Spreads an ecstatic stardust Flowers close Leaves dance The end of a gothic romance Crepuscularia agony in red minor Crepuscularia set the sky on fire Crepuscularia agony in red minor Crepuscularia black curtain drops Venetian red bridal bed sheets Indigo veils upon brilliant golden eye Skyborn chrysalid Violet veins painted on prussian blue sky Zephyrus breeze Ridden by pollen Spreads an ecstatic stardust Flowers close Leaves dance The end of a gothic romance Crepuscularia agony in red minor Crepuscularia set the sky on fire Crepuscularia agony in red minor Crepuscularia black curtain drops Darkness smothered Dying murrey whines Spreading dark seeds Among sunset remains A war chant rises Upon the grave Infernal challange Heavenly grace 3. Lady Lily White [Lyrics by:Fabrizio / Music by: Alex/ Andrea] White dove lay lifeless on a crown of thorns Beside a broken sword Whirlwind blew out a candle Heartrending cry Tears were streaming down her face Cold dread of death black cursed embrace An endless nightmare croacked on the brink of despair She felt she would die Her thoughts flew to his brave betrothed It was so long ago! Sweet loving eyes of thee so far from mine She felt she would die Sweetheart, my light cruel fate calls me to fight Sudden shadows fell on me Was the dream of white dove a message of thee? You may be wrong May he live long! How many winters What cold you suffered in the pale warmth of hope Gloomy icy blast from battlefront Blew his dumb ashes back to court Atropos broke fine thread of his life She felt she would die Calling from the highest hissing tower Corvine shades abducted her murdered soul Birds of ill omen stained the sky She felt she would die Jewel, my love the war is calling from above Sudden shadows fell on me Was the dream of white dove a message of thee? Was not only a dream Of suffocated beam Harmonic torment Tragedy masked in romantic dress The tower was calling...she climbed the stairs to breathe better the death ...and the heaven was bleeding She dressed in snow flickering as lily in storm Like a dove flew up E i cielo tinto nel rubino Stringeva al seno suo il muto giglio, Spenta la rosa nel viso candido bambino Ricamava la parca fatal il sigillo vermiglio, Igneo affluente del gentil ruscel diamante Dolce scivolava al freddo mar del pianto. Fragil ebbro d'amor libravasi lo spirto vagante, E la terra la bruma copriva d'incanto‰ 4. Fables [Lyrics by:Fabrizio / Music by: Alex/ Andrea] Preparations are well advanced Velvet palls and sweet jasmine smell For marriage of heaven and hell Vipers shed at once the skin Now wicked clasps forgive all sins Wishing you joy with much regret Like a cross round the devil's neck Deadly hatred has fallen in love The upper crust Feed on trust And lies to the last To wear the crown Of kings and clowns And always tell new fables Still life A masquerade to appear Worm eaten apple Shining like a star Beware of The forked tongued lambs Guardian angels Dig your grave by night Enchanted by the gloss of silk Trust build them a triumphal arch While organ dirges their wedding march For feathers dancing in the wind Apparence is like a dazzling ring But as you know roses soon fade Even in fables ready made Deadly hatred has fallen in love The upper crust Feed on trust And lies to the last To wear the crown Of kings and clowns And always tell new fables Still life A masquerade to appear Worm eaten apple Shining like a star Beware of The forked tongued lambs Guardian angels Dig your grave by night And no wonder if the dumb will not be silent as the grave None is so deaf as those that won't hear All that glitter is not gold 5. Aloisa [Lyrics by:Fabrizio / Music by: Alex/ Andrea] Ye that now smile In fronte of my colde statue By blue musk veilede Ye know not my sadde storie I remember now the cold I felt When your eyes turned Towards that poisoned flower I have dreamt of thee I have dreamt of our serene past times But they have passed, alas! I have loved thee more than my own life Now I wonder in the wind, And I dream endlessly I have slept no longer I have spoke no longer My name is Aloisa and I bring sweet perfumes and love To sad ladies 6. El Diablo Y La Luna [Lyrics by:Fabrizio / Music by: Alex/ Andrea] Bolt from the blue What Devil art thou? Thy beauty make the bright stars dim Moon blushes at the sight of thee Silky lips full of fire Auroral glance to die for Dark nymph mirror of grace Sweet lethal Cupid's dart Thy breast and absinth Evoke majestic dreams of lust Of grandeurest royal palace Liar of mortal sins Cruel siren temptress Skies too adore thee, goddess Fiend angelical, was Venus dethroned Tu eres como el diablo y la luna And my soul flies to alabastrine clouds Follows thy trail of light to moonshiny caves Where love words dance like glowing fire flies And echo spreads thy smell of paradise Crown me thy king And I'll rule my carnal nightmare Or whip me as a slave And I'll crawl to kiss thy feet Cruel siren temptress Skies too adore thee, goddess Fiend angelical, was Venus dethroned Tu eres como el diablo y la luna And my soul flies to alabastrine clouds Follows thy trail of light to moonshiny caves Where love words dance like glowing fire flies And echo spreads thy smell of paradise 7. Pure Treasure [Lyrics by:Fabrizio / Music by: Alex/ Andrea] I've found the rarest thing in the world A strange fascinating light It doesn't shine But it perfumes like a flower Growing everywhere and somewhere Pure treasure Like a pearl of dew Innocent diadem Of a divine crown Its name is the name of a wind With an enchanted breath The flap of an angel's wings A flower growing everywhere and somewhere 8. Green Orchestra (Sonata For Leaves & Trees) [Lyrics by:Fabrizio / Music by: Alex/ Andrea] Crystalline pearls are falling On fresh leafy branches Like soft emerald carillon Tune up a faint damp refrain Earth drinks the angels weeping Poisonous essence dripping Flora shelters the sprouting jewels Crescendo of swarming tears Rain streams from a grey flock Freezing arrows through the air As sparkling shell embraces the soil Greenish parfumes ravish birds' voice Musk viola solo gently whispers A sea green ”cello plaintive theme Twinkling arpeggios herbaceous tunes Sonata for leaves and trees Oh Green Orchestra lull my weary heart refresh my arid soul Oh Green Orchestra your charming fragrance tastes of love like her ebony eyes Pelting diamonds make forest precious Instruments in bloom Flash of blaze almighty growl Cascade of glittering splinters Musk viola solo gently whispers A sea green ”cello plaintive theme Twinkling arpeggio herbaceous tunes Sonata for leaves and trees Oh Green Orchestra lull my weary heart refresh my arid soul Oh Green Orchestra your charming fragrance taste of love like her ebony eyes Stillano in perle di cristallo I vani sogni d'illusi cuori incantati E s'infrangon sbocciando in languide voci Dai profumi fatati L'orchestra di smeraldo lontano sussurra Brilla E poi Muore. 9. Romanzo Nero [Lyrics by: Fabrizio / Music by: Alex / Andrea] Piansero le deboli stelle Tre angeli dipinti d'inverno Fu il funerale delle rose Ma nessuna lacrima le svegliâ E gli occhi pensarono al silenzio Che giaceva sulle labbra di cera Per sempre E le ali di neve Di tenebra imperlate Mai pié gridarono al cielo Di fermare La morte Porteremo il nostro segreto lontano 10. Haeresis Dea [Lyrics by: Fabrizio / Music by: Alex / Andrea] Freedom wings as precious as slim How many times were broken? Poor in spirit overbearing Sentenced exception to death Stifled cries Implored grey skies Purification of fire Heretical you're guilty! Confess, abjure We'll save at least your soul Haeresis dea Your time has come Kneel and ask for mercy Don't scream, don't cry Never say die! Who preaches peace will never kill Haeresis dea Shouts rent the air Raise your eyes to heaven Pray to suffer the torments of hell Can one be cruel in the name of faith?

Confess, abjure We'll save at least your soul Haeresis dea Your time has come Kneel and ask for mercy Don't scream, don't cry Never say die! Who preaches peace will never kill Haeresis dea Shouts rent the air Raise your eyes to heaven Pray to suffer the torments of hell Can one be cruel in the name of faith? You stand accused for practising witchcraft! Do you confess? I beg your pardon My tears don't lie Oh please forgive me! I don't know why... I'm here... Am I forgiven?
