Contrast 05:07
Walking through these streets I saw a shade The shade of you Feels really far And though it seems like yesterday When we just watched For the first time The city lights Follow me Haunting ghost Day and night Life and death The smell of gas, the sound of cars Just passing by A simple thought The deepest fear Foundations that held My reality Just crumbling Down on me Could it be, forget it now Another day for me and thou Pieces of these old crushed dreams Just smithereens So in time it shall arrive My destined end, our final drive Far apart, like sun and moon Never in tune Follow me haunting ghost Day and night Life and death Joined as one The darkest dawn The brightest dusk
2.
Girdled by curtains of smoke So dark that I can hardly see All what’s in front of me Burning down Falling forth Into a pit of darkness Short of breath Can feel my skin start burning Flames keep rising Up to the tarnished sky All’s left this dirty skyline White and gray Helpless child struggles He won’t survive How could it be this cold One by one sparkles fade away Waiting for The last of stars to vanish Fill your lungs Let it all turn to ashes Watch it burn To the ground Earth and life Moon and sky See them fly One last time Bursts of flame Smoke and ash
3.
Sundown 04:56
Keep descending Great being of light Bring with you the saddest hour And turn this town to gold Feel the cold breeze on your face While everything slows down Echoes of some older times Forever standing by Trembling hearts Start beating faster Hands still soaked With your own tears of joy Cause Sól is nearly dying But you’re still here with me Sundown Evenfall Close my eyes Turn it off Sundown Finally Turn it all off
4.
Turning back Back to something Else than this Filth that covers all Diving down The great vastness of This dry sea Of black dust See the sights From up top the roof Watch the stars It’s just them and you Let it fall Why was it so hard Dust to dust Hear the silence
5.
I’m still stuck With these remnants of the past Waiting for that day To stop repeating itself Like a broken machine Just going in circles Waiting for something To destroy this cycle Coming and going Like the faintest light It’s our future flickering In front of my eyes Breaking my legs And then breaking my arms Taking my breath And this life I despise Staring at a never-ending flicker Thinking that something will change A lifetime inside a second Days and months gone just like that Your faint scent coming and going Purer than the morning light
6.
Walls 04:32
Bound by darkness Devoid of grace Dances wildly And cries in pain Waves its limbs all around And wields a knife in its hands Never touched by the rays of sun It’s not a demon, just a man Dried up bloodstains On these walls Recall the last time That I saw it Creeping shadow Painted red Destroy this world Bring it down
7.
Neon 04:24
Now the city is lighting up Under the darkest sky Your warmth faded away Don’t think that I forgot About these everlasting Shining neon lights You’d make them disappear I’d trade them all again Blinded by these bright lights I stood there completely still Wish you were here besides me To turn them all off Flash, flash, flash We blew them all up Watch the city burn They can’t make it stop Brought darkness and fire Just misery and pain Now they will be gone Like tears in the rain A column of smoke Goes up in the sky Our time has come The final goodbye Fireworks that light up the scene The smell of death and gasoline Like it should have always been
8.
Heavy Rain 07:06
Thunder calls upon us From the sky And lightning lights up Your face lifeless, still I just don’t know what it was That you wanted from me And I will never get to know Overflowing Heavens pouring Giving rest To sadness and hate Meaningless Tears that we shed Everything Dissolving forever Skin and flesh Blood in vein Will all succumb To this heavy rain Let it go Close your eyes Drift away in this torrent Let the cold rain embrace you Bleeding stars Crystal clear Piercing down A hole in our hearts Laying down Finally free We shall be Just one with the sea Hold my hand Kiss me softly For the last time Bringer of death

about

"Blinded By Bright Lights, I Stood There" is Onirismo's 5th full lenght album and the first one completely written in English. Furthermore, it represents a little shift in style, blending a lot of different ideas and sounds, and hoping to give it a more contemporary touch without losing its essence.
