DIO
04:29

|||
On wings of gold;
(On wings of gold)
Go settle upon the slopes and the hills,
Where, soft and mild,
(Where, soft and mild,)
The Fresh airs of my native land
Smell fragrant!
⠀
Like the fateful Solomon,
Draw a lament of raw sound;
To permit the Lord to inspire us
⠀
Non son piu re
Son dio
Non son piu re
Son dio
Non son piu re
Son dio
Non son piu re
Son dio
⠀
Son dio
⠀
On Jordan banks
(On Jordan banks)
Oh, my sweet homeland,
So lovely and lost!
And Zion's hills
(And Zion's hills)
Third temple so dear and so dead!
So dear and so dead!
⠀
Like the fateful Solomon,
Draw a lament of raw sound;
To permit the Lord to inspire us
⠀
Non son piu re
Son dio
Non son piu re
Son dio
Non son piu re
Son dio
Non son piu re
Son dio
⠀
(Non son piu re
Son dio)
⠀
(Non son piu re
Son dio)

The False Promise
04:30
|
|||
(Come and keep the false promise)
Your unexistence strengthens my faith
Bring another testament
And I will plea
To allow me everything
I want to feel
⠀
(Come and keep the false promise)
A wolf in sheep clothing with equivocal sight
Bring another testament
And I will try
To follow every order
Nothing to deny
⠀
(Come and keep the false promise)
Your unexistence strengthens my faith
⠀
(…Bring another testament
To allow me everything
I want to feel…)
⠀
(…Bring another testament
To allow me everything
I want to feel…)
⠀
(…A wolf in sheep clothing with equivocal sight
Bring another testament
And I will try
To follow every order
Nothing to deny…)
⠀
(To allow me everything
I want to feel)

Royal Front
04:56
|
|||
Of all the souls that stand create
I have elected one.
When sense from spirit flies away,
And subterfuge is done
⠀
And subterfuge is done
And subterfuge is done
And subterfuge is done
And subterfuge is done
⠀
When that which is and that which was
Apart, intrinsic, stand,
And this brief tragedy of flesh
Is shifted like a sand
⠀
Is shifted like a sand
Is shifted like a sand
Is shifted like a sand
Is shifted like a sand.
⠀
When figures show their royal front
And mists are carved away,—
Behold the atom I preferred
To all the lists of clay!
⠀
To all the lists of clay!
To all the lists of clay!
To all the lists of clay!
To all the lists of clay!

What power art thou?
Who from below
Hast made me rise
Unwillingly and slow
From beds of everlasting snow
⠀
Let me freeze
Let me freeze
Let me freeze
Again
⠀
Let me freeze
Let me freeze
Let me freeze
Again to death
⠀
See’st thou not how stiff
(See’st thou not how stiff)
And wondrous old
Far unfit to bear the bitter cold,
(Far unfit to bear the bitter cold,)
I can scarcely move
Or draw my breath
Just let me freeze (just let me freeze)
Just let me freeze (just let me freeze)
Just let me freeze again to death.
⠀
Let me freeze
Let me freeze
Let me freeze
Again
⠀
Let me freeze
Let me freeze
Let me freeze
Again to death
