Sometimes I ask myself: “Why do I have to fight?” Every time that I try to make an effort to keep hard I feel I am losing my time, without going on. But I don’t want to keep staring at the world, not anymore, not on my own. Do you remember where is the place where it all began? The place where all seemed in perfection and without pain. What happened then? Who was the amazing liar? I really don’t understand, so now would you tell me Why, I don’t think that searching I will find Why? Try to free me from this clutch! I am waking from this deranged night and I feel ashamed, I saw the pain inside your eyes looking at him! I don’t know how you can be without tension and anxiety. I think your mind will not stand, so please tell me Why, I don’t think I deserve this state of mind! Why, you’re supposed to be a messiah? …and I fall again In this life the thing I long for is a reason why! Why, In this game I’m acting as a blind? Why, You are chosen to fight against my world? Every second that I waste is lost, But it’s the only way to keep in control. If I look behind the door of your soul Your heart is bleeding out of pain.

Looking at the past, Longing for the next day, Life appears something different From the other ones. Every single action Evolves from a small bud, If you seek from The height of humanity. I can feel the fire in me Burning from the inside, But I can’t pretend to love Without an exhausting fight! I saw you in your light But if I came it won’t shine! Come to me, my friend Bring me energy to rise again! All the scenery Set on fire but You didn’t know that I have risen up! What I thought and What it meant to be... Now I think I’ve been Scarred in my eyes. “I have risen up/I think I’ve been scarred in my eyes Come to me my friend/All the scenery set on fire I can feel the fire in me/Every action evolves from a small bud I saw you in your light/Life appears different”

When I fell at your feet Honored by your statement Everything became much Clearer to me And I thought at the meaning Of the entire life Hoping one day I'll be Wise enough to speak But even if you're gone Your presence still remains I can't go on alone Because outside still rains I feel your soul behind Showing me the way Allowing me to find What I’m looking for each day And I stared at your grave Praying for a change What I needed was The brave to face my aim And memories returned to me As a falling star So I could see what you’ve Left me But even if you're gone Your presence still remains I can't go on alone Because outside still rains I feel your soul behind Showing me the way Allowing me to find What I’m looking for each day (ohohoh ohohoh…) Every story Has to end What we’d (should) do is To stand So go outside Go ahead Take a breath and Don't cry

Landslip 10:15
Waiting In the calm of persuasion Chasing Dreams deep in your heart Everything Seems to be peaceable Surrounding It’s like a fairy paradise But what would happen If I shouted out loud? All is consequence of lies, The truth is no more visible. Just keep it in your hands Hear its weak beating Synchronizing with your heart Creating a powerful stroke Now the ground is shaking The horizon changes height I don’t really know How long I can stand Run, dodge the stones Before someone becomes your grave Look, there’s a man I have to rescue him, he looks like me Why, he doesn’t turn? I am calling with my lungs in throat Wait, hurl the truth away Maybe it’s the only way… to stay Now the ground is shaking The horizon changes height I don’t really know How long I can stay… alone Maybe I don’t want the truth If it makes someone hurt The ground isn’t shaking now My soul can fly away

Crystal Eyes 31:14
(I-Now) Wind, stroking my face Is the affection that I ever needed The air dries my eyes But I can still look at the skyline. How many times you have to decide? Between what's good or bad Maybe good is not sweet, Sometimes good is hard to deal with. We try to make choices with wisdom Taking care from the past But sometimes it holds you And you just don't know what to do. This time I want to get free, Free from people, enemies, world... Is it worth doing? Free from life… I don't want to waste it, not anymore. (II-Childhood) I just can't forget my family They gave me everything I was keen on living life It was a discover to me They taught me how to live How to keep going on Without leaving back anything Respecting the world (III-The Break) Now I can see the mistake, I lived with no fears Without troubles on mind Growing life became scary. And I still remember The day my mother died We were so frightened, At the mercy of the time! Emotions got the upper hand Over our uncontrolled acts My dad got out of mind I remember his hands on me But I was still a child, Just started to grow I'd like to react to him I had to wait more. (IV-Adolescence) Years were passing Hate was rising I was growing with a mad Who made me sad Sometimes I would Just have killed him. Maybe now I would not be What I hate so much! [The darkest hour is just before the dawn] But my mother taught me To respect each life I just can't understand Why she loved him I had to split my soul from present and my desires. My only aim is her, I just can't let her go! (V-Love) Years and years I've tried Now I'm a man, don't forget I want to start again And share all my life with her There's a new life in front of me I won't do what my father did She’s so perfect to me I'm honest, that's what I wish. (VI-Betrayal) One day of our life together I heard her crying She came to me With her vest in her blood She said she betrayed me But regret was so hard That she couldn't go on And stabbed herself (VII-Resignation) I held her in my arms, I stared her in the eyes While heart was stopping. It took a lot to be consumed. I didn't call the aid We didn't want to What can you do more If you've given all you have? Life has no meaning to me. I don't want to go on Hoping in something That never comes. There's no light At the end of my path. Try to find yours, Mine's just ended. [When your strength becomes your weakness, your efforts to survive will lead you to death. We're only lip reading life without hearing the lullaby of groans that come from the deepest abyss.]

Crucial 02:24
Once more fading Standing by the wind Sorrow, hate and finding words to explain 'Cause I'm facing shadows in the night healing scars inside my mind So watch the haze between our eyes thinking to what I've Become Undone

about

Blank Forest Udine, Italy

Blank Forest is a prog group formed in 2012 by Luca Moreale (guitar/vocals) and Valerio Simonini (keyboards) who wanted to create new inspiring tracks, trying to blend different genres.
They started working on their pieces on their own (like a studio project) then they called Michele Di Gleria (drums) and Carlo De Biaggio (bass) and definitively decided to form the band.
