L'ago di una siringa si infila sottopelle, all'altezza del fegato. Fa male, lo so che fa male, sono stramaleddettamente sicuro che fa male, ma il mio corpo non ha nessuna reazione al riguardo.
Si, è così, il mio corpo non si oppone a questo dolore, anzi sembra quasi che ne tragga un piacere sadomasochista. Ho perso la capacità di capire cosa sta succedendo. E' come se cadessi nel vuoto al rallentatore, piano, talmente piano da non riuscire più a prevedere il momento in cui arriverà dell'inevitabile impatto.
La siringa affonda sempre di più, inesorabile, ma senza alcuna fretta. Ormai anche il mio cervello ha smesso di reagire al dolore, adesso sono completamente anestetizzato. Non riesco più a muovermi. E' passato del tempo, ma non saprei dire quanto. Ora la siringa è solo un vecchio ricordo impolverato che giace in vicolo cieco insieme al dolore che ha provocato e a mille ragnatele.
Sto bene adesso. La mia mente è vuota, sgombra da tutti quei pensieri fumosi che la attanagliavano prima. Non sento più il mio corpo, forse è proprio scomparso, ma non è importante. Adesso c'è solo una musica incantevole, che entra goccia a goccia nella mia anima, come le lacrime piante per quel dolore, un dolore che ora è solo un ricordo. Si, è solo uno stupido ricordo quello che mi rimane alla fine di tutto.
Forse non sarà abbastanza. Ma, frugando negli angoli bui della mia mente, quello stupido ricordo è ciò che descrive meglio 'Roseland NYC Live'.

01 Humming (06:37)
Closer;
No hesitation.
Give me
All that you have.
And it's been so long,
That I can't explain.
And it's been so long;
Right now, so wrong.
Naked,
My thoughts are creepin.
Too late;
The show has begun.
Cause it's been so long,
That I can't confess;
And it's been so wrong,
Right now,
So wrong.
Is it all as it seems?
So unresolved; so unredeemed?
If I remain, how will I know?
Cause it's been so long that I can't be sure.
And it's been so wrong;
Right now, so wrong.
02 Cowboys (05:02)
Did you sweep us far from your feet
Reset in stone this stark belief
Salted eyes and a soiled dye
Too many years
But don't despair this day, will be their damnedest day
Ooh, if you take these things from me
Did you feed us tales of deceit
Conceal the tongues who need to speak
Subtle lies and a soiled queen
The truth is sold, the deal is done
But don't despair this day, will be their damnedest day
Ooh, if you take these things from me
Undefied, no signs of regret
Your swollen pride assumes respect
Talons fly as a last disguise
But no return, the time has come
So don't despair this day, will be their damnedest day
Ooh, if you take these things from me
Ooh, if you take these things from me
03 All Mine (04:03)
All the stars may shine bright
All the clouds may be white
But when you smile
Oh how I feel so good
That I can hardly wait
To hold you
Enfold you
Never enough
Render your heart to me
All mine
You have to be
From that cloud, number nine
Danger starts the sharp incline
And such sad regrets
Oh as those starry skies
As they swiftly fall
Make no mistake
You shan't escape
Tethered and tied
There's nowhere to hide from me
All mine
You have to be
So don't resist
We shall exist
Until the day
Until the day I die
All mine
You have to be
04 Mysterons (05:45)
Inside you're pretending
Crimes have been swept aside
Somewhere where they can forget
Divine upper reaches
Still holding on
This ocean will not be grasped
All for nothing
Did you really want?
Did you really want?
Did you really want?
Did you really want?
Refuse to surrender
Strung out until ripped apart
Who dares, dares to condemn
All for nothing
Did you really want?
Did you really want?
Did you really want?
Did you really want?
06 Half Day Closing (04:14)
In the days, the golden days
When everybody knew what they wanted
It ain't here today
Through the times of lasting love
when parents talked of things tried and tested
They don't feel the same
Dreams and belief have gone
Time, like a thief, goes on
From beyond the shrinking skies
Where money talks and leaves us hypnotized
It dont' pave the way
Underneath the fading sun
The silent sum of a businessman
Has left us choking
Dreams and belief have gone
Time, like a thief, goes on
In the days, the golden days
When everybody knew what they wanted
It ain't here today
Dreams and belief have gone
Time, like a thief, goes on
08 Glory Box (05:38)
I'm so tired
Of playing,
Playing with this bow and arrow
Gonna give my heart away
Leave it to the other girls to play
For I've been a temptress too long
Just. . .
Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be...
A woman.
I just wanna be a woman.
From this time, unchained
We're all looking at a different picture
Through this new frame of mind
A thousand flowers could bloom
Move over, and give us some room,
Yeah
Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be...
A woman.
I just wanna be a woman.
(Instrumental)
So don't you stop bein' a man
Just take a little look from our side when you can
Sow a little tenderness
No matter if you cry
Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be here;
A woman.
It's all I wanna be is a woman
For this is the beginning of forever and ever
Its time to move over
I'm so tired, of playing
Playing with this bow and arrow
Gonna give my heart away
Leave it to the other girls to play
For I've been a temptress too long
09 Sour Times (05:20)
To pretend no one can find
The fallacies of morning rose
Forbidden fruit, hidden eyes
Courtesies that I despise in me
Take a ride, take a shot now
Cause nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you do
Covered by the blind belief
That fantasies of sinful screens
Bear the facts, assume the dye
End the vows no need to lie, enjoy
Take a ride, take a shot now
Cause nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you do
Who am I, what and why
Cause all I have left is my memories of yesterday
Ohh these sour times
Cause nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you do
After time, the bitter taste
Of innocence, descent or race
Scattered seeds, buried lives
Mysteries of our disguise revolve
Circumstance will decide
Cause nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you
Nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you do
10 Roads (05:52)
Ohh, can't anybody see
We've got a war to fight
Never found our way
Regardless of what they say
How can it feel, this wrong
From this moment
How can it feel, this wrong
Storm.. in the morning light
I feel
No more can I say
Frozen to myself
I got nobody on my side
And surely that ain't right
And surely that ain't right
Ohh, can't anybody see
We've got a war to fight
Never found our way
Regardless of what they say
How can it feel, this wrong
From this moment
How can it feel, this wrong
How can it feel, this wrong
From this moment
How can it feel, this wrong
Ohh, can't anybody see
We've got a war to fight
Never found our way
Regardless of what they say
How can it feel, this wrong
From this moment
How can it feel, this wrong
11 Strangers (05:22)
Ohh...
Can anybody see the light
Where the morn meets the dew
And the tide rises
Did you realise no one can see inside your view?
Did you realise forwhy this sight belongs to you?
Ohh...
Just set aside your fears of life
With the sole desire
Done it warning
Done in now
This ain't real
On in this side
Done it warning
Done in now
This ain't real
On in this side
Done it warning
Done in now
This ain't real
Done it warning
Done in now
This ain't real
On in this side
Ohh...
Oh can anybody see the light
Where the morn meets the dew
And the tide rises
Did you realise no one can see inside your view?
Did you realise, forwhy this sight belongs to you?

Un brivido, l’aria è decisamente fredda, ma non è la temperatura a scuotermi bensì le prime note di "Humming".
"Nobody loves me", lo ripete talmente tante volte che mi viene quasi da crederle.
