lyrics

The question that gets asked the most; we hear it everyday,
"why do we exist?" they want to know, and then they go away
It's time to work, it's time to buy, it’s time to feed the fishes,
It's time to take your drugs, and wash and dry the dishes
It's time to live, it's time to die, it's time for having fun,
Everybody is running somewhere then everybody is gone

A certain lack of interiority
It's a serious mistake: the human being needs
elegant actions
Insignificant people follow fashion
Sailing accross the sea
Feeling like I'm falling while everybody is falling asleep

I know outside I'm smiling, It's the face I fake for you,
But inside my soul is crying and there is nothing you can do.
I lay on a rock and wonder what the hell I'm doing here
Can I wake up from this dream? Can I please just disappear?
And sorrow comes with tears just as grey clouds comes with rain
I felt myself alone with fears so I've decided to face my pain

A certain lack of interiority
It's a serious mistake: the human being needs
elegant actions
Insignificant people follow fashion
Sailing accross the sea
Feeling like I'm falling while everybody is falling asleep

They put me into the world they want me to be fake
But I'm always free and I am awake
Decorating me with university jewels
The rest of my batch? They looked like fools.
Opening their mouths with shiny teeth inside
This was the day another bullshit had died

It was created just for you
when you're happy or when you're blue
The only drawback is you see,
is getting out quickly, from the flock of sheep

Joe Pansa Mola Di Bari, Italy

My name is Joe Pansa and I am an artist. I started making music in 1997 approaching rap. I wanted to sing and create my own music so I dived into other music genres such as funky, folk and electronic. Starting from these experiences, and after a period of reflection that lasted two and a half years, I started this new project by venturing into a musical journey between folk and electronics. ... more
