Dulcimer 02:24
You never stop telling me that I hurt my self when I burn inside (I just want to say: “You’ll see”) And you don’t have to expect anything from me because my hand are tied (I just want to say: “You’ll see”) I want to know the reason why I wanna make you mine Don’t you know it’s better if you go away to cry I wanna die,I wanna die,I wanna die I know that you hate the way I keep on eating when I seems to be useless (I just want to say: “You’ll see”) But tomorrow you’ll be nice and you will force me to forget my sadness I want to know the reason why I wanna make you mine Don’t you know it’s better if you go I wanna die,I wanna die,I wanna make you mine So please stay with me another time I wanna tell you-You’ll be just mine My power is your fear of remaining solo I know there will be no why One day you will be mine Don’t you know it’s better if you go I wanna die,I wanna die,I wanna die,I wanna die

Just Dust 03:25
I would have paid for our home I would have done anything not to let you go But because of fucking money I have not Our life is made of dots Pull of the spiderwebs on my face I’m busy eating my nails I’ll pay for what I’ve done I don’t mind ‘cause I get used not to have fun When I’m really happy to stay I know I will regret of what I’ll say And you will never understand me ‘cause I tell you too many things Why aren’t we fool? Why do we love each other deeply? Why am I so fool? Why am I not able to stop me On this side, the sweet side Not that side, the suicide I would have paid for new clothes I would have done it toasting “many happy returns” Even if I grow fond of the things You all know what it means Memories of day come to an end Some keep-fake of a friend Why aren’t we good? Why do we hate each other easly? Why am I so fool? Why am I not able to stop me On this side, the sweet side Not that side, the suicide

Thora 03:19
Thora realized that pray would never change her situation In nothing she did or she said she never felt some satisfaction Thora decided “there’s nothing to try” She wasn’t able to live this life She destroyed inside the love she received She was waiting her time Thora realized that cry would just made her eyes more green that she had And nothing she did or she said would never made her feel less stupid or sad Thora decided “there’s nothing to try” She wasn’t able to live this life The love she received, the love she had inside were full of fucking lies She could just kill or die Thora realized that she was just taking herself for a ride She deceived herself about her cruel spite and her real goodness to fuck up her inner might But Thora decided “there’s nothing to try” She wasn’t able to live this life She destroyed inside the gave she received She was waiting her time

Tell me about the weakness in me Is this the only thing you see? It’s easy to ask a question and wait Especially if you think I’m tardy Tell me about the grace you had When you said to me I’ve got nothing in my hand I’m sorry but I’m happy to laugh To laugh Without explanations to your way to survive So what can I do? If I’m a looser too But you make me feel better than you I cry, I cry ‘cause I don’t know what is wrong and what is right So what can I do? Am I really unable to do? And I don’t need nobody to tell me It isn’t true

I’m falling in a fix I failed my plans Where is my personal jesus now that I’m his lamb? It’s like I’ve lost myself assurance Please put me in chains, again It’s like I’ve eaten my brain Keeping on thinking “strange” Now every shadow looks like a cat And my old dresses don’t work ‘cause I’m fat I try to divert my attention But I am past redemption And when I’m talking Out of the blue I look at me I’m doing a monologue I’ m falling in a fix I’m on the line Tell everyone you will marry me while your mother’s crying It’s like I’ve lost myself assurance Please put me in chains, again It’s like I’ve lost my brain Keeping on thinking “strange” Now every blue light looks like the police And less and less people believe in peace And when I’m talking Out of the blue I look at me I’m a monologue Ah People pretend to hate me but they love me

I was in time The prize is mine Or I will not appease my fury tonight The prize is mine What a clear mind Be quiet I’m just defending my pride 5 are fingers in one’s hand 4 my eyes and 3 my troops 2 are ears of someone’s head 1 my brain and zero my rules

I'm boring 02:56
It depends on your point of view I am still young but I am old too There are a lot of things I can’t do anymore And sometimes I feel stupid doing things that I adore I make myself think positive I fall asleep just watching the tv And then I wake up in the middle of the night I can’t breath, I can’t move and my eyes are fucking wide Oh I, I could learn to play my violin Oh I, I’m sitting in a shoe that will never walk Oh I feel you’re afraid of my speechless speech Oh I’m boring.. Maybe I am on the loose I think about too many things so I can’t choose Meantime time goes by and I I’m getting old as I’m going out of my mind It depends on your point of view I am still young but I am old too I won and I collected a lot of skills But I’ve got no job or at least someone who pays my bills! Oh I, I could learn to play my violin Oh I, I’m sitting in a shoe that will never walk Oh I feel you’re afraid of my speechless speech Oh I’m boring..

Clean 04:38
It’s always hard to have a clear head When too many things rely on you And I feel sad, I get upset about the one I love being so cold Time goes by And I keep still And I keep on thinking what is stuff? There’s too much stuff shutting out my view It’s time to clear everything out I set about washing I set about sweeping I set about cleaning, about throwing out You aren’t even able to make My smallest dream come true But maybe like anybody else I’m never satisfied Everything around me seems very useless And I am sure, yes I am sure I’ve never asked for any of this

Proud 03:01
Desire let me fall Yellow paper on the wall You don’t know how I feel You don’t know how I feel Damn hate! You’re always wrong so wrong so wrong so Why have you chosen me? Should I be proud of it? Desire let me fall Yellow paper on the wall My nails grow up inside out You don’t know how I feel You don’t know how I feel Damn hate! You’re always wrong so wrong so wrong so Why have you chosen me? Should I be proud of it? How can I change the best of me? I’ve never met anyone so altruistic But this time I wanna be able to grow up

What's a lie 03:07
You don’t know anything about me, I don’t give a damn That is my chance to show you who I really am I will not tell you that I’m full of fucking problem I’m sure I’ll find something to say shaking your hand I’m happy to be here And I am of good cheer I’m everything but shy But these are all lies When do I understand that no one cares about the real truth of my mind? When do I understand my paranoias make seem unkind? I don’t need to feed this hell But what else can I do? I’m still talking about myself It’s too hard to pretend Because I don’t feel glad I just want to be quiet This is not a lie Oh nobody loves you as nobody loves me But there’s no feeling I carry on wondering when I learn to lie If I say I’m fine Will everything start shining? Will I believe I’m kind Will you really be mine? So what’s a lie?

Ho atteso tutto il tempo che hai voluto per farti contento e ho distratto l'ansia regalandomi pace che invento Pensieri che raduno e poi sputo in anelli di fumo La pelle è profumata ma non voglio vedere nessuno Così aspetto il film, aspetto qui le parole che voglio sentire da te Le parole che sono carezze ma ignorano che Mio malgrado la notte è più affascinante di te Ho sonno e mi addormento, per un attimo ancora ti sento Poi ogni suono è immagine e confondo il respiro col vento Mi credi, mi dispiace Apro gli occhi ma ormai tutto tace La porta è lì davanti ma di entrare non sono capace.

about

Maria Messina Torino, Italy

Le sue ballate, tenere e drammatiche, sono costellate di suoni evocativi fiabe gotiche, richiami folk con echi celtici, misticismi dark: Maria Messina impara a ipnotizzare l’ascoltatore attraverso un pop onirico ed etereo, come gli incantesimi delle streghe. ... more
