NEMESIS

I enter the room of my consciousness

That incredible disorder

I rummage through the drawers

Where I keep sufferings

And the ineradicable memories

Dust that knows of regret

Spider webs cover my time,

I recompose pieces of life

But I'm here for you

Fleeting shadow

 

And my face reflects, Inside you

My nemesis, my alter ego

You reflect me and then

Are a dark ghost

The imperfect and the unsaid

I will let you be what you are,

My soul, black and rending.

If you destroy my image

It does not matter

Finally that door remains open

 

And opening the border between dream and reality

I stumble among people at my funeral

Who cry, who laugh,

It is my Carnival

I look at them from above, a spectral profile

 

Rush down into the void that I have inside

Nobody hugs me, I touch the silence,

Slow-motion of a movie without more viewers,

Close the curtain of the world outside and ... and ...

 

The snow falls , how cold it is

For this actress without identity

I escape from the frost of my uncertainties

But there is no refuge save me from she

Who is heat, but to hurt

Is my animal instinct

 

I'm alone in this storm

But certainly I do not regret

Your mood swings, your sterile love

Even without, I will survive

 

My nemesis now dominates

Be careful! If she comes for you

She destroys you, crushes you, is cruel and savage,

And then she will laugh in your face

 

And sitting here on the bank of my river

I'm waiting for you to pass this way

Naked and without arrogance

I'll never get enough

This dance that gives me joy

 

And in the darkness I move safe and stealthy  (what are you?)

I'm not afraid of anything and I feel wicked  (you are lost now)

 

Souls dancing to the beat of their sins  (you like us)

In this limbo I disown my past days  (and so will you be...)

 

Wind and storm

I'm not just this,

The rumble of thunder

I don't understand any longer which side I’m on

And it goes against the wind and sharpens my torment

I'm hungry for the Sun

Nemesis cannot dominate me

 

My nemesis is here,

Is stronger than ever

And I know that she is reaching for me

And it’s she who does not know

Ever to stop halfway,

Is Lady of Vice and Deception

She seizes me , she exhausts me because

She does not accept the peace that I have inside

She has no balance,

Makes me waver,

And frustrates what I have achieved

 

Tell me that you'll disappear

As a dream in the morning light

And will be, within me,

A memory clouded by time

 

I leave the room of my consciousness

To make order is impossible

Strange this drawer, not only sufferings

But something relentless

Nemesis, it is no longer your time

By now your fire is spent

And I will be born again to enchantment

By words and music

Food for the soul ...
