[Verse: Cristina Scabbia]
I don't wanna be just a branch of the tree
I just wanna learn how to grow my own seed
My horizon, so hard to be outlined
Riding all my time, I'm still draining my day away
(Oh, oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh)
(Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh)
(Oh, oh, oh oh...)
[Bridge 1: Andrea Ferro, Cristina]
You got a natural healing
(Oh...)
How do you get so strong, get so strong?
(Oh-oh, oh-oh oh)
Who is this lord of the feeling?
(Oh-oh, oh-oh oh-oh)
How did he get so big, get so big?
(Oh oh oh-oh...)
[Pre-Chorus: Cristina]
So fragile, this feelin'
To be broken (to be broken), in two
[Chorus: Cristina and Andrea]
It's really weird to say
That here in the future we're not livin' all our life
That's what I know
We're incomplete despite of a new millennium
Wonderful to say (you're hiding)
That you'll never know when the world is going to fall (you're hiding)
And that is all I know (you're hiding)
We're incomplete despite of the new millennium (you're hiding)
[Verse: Cristina]
I don't want to be just a cure for a need
Here into my prison I'm searchin' the key
My horizon, so hard to be outlined
Riding all my time, I'm still draining my day away
[Bridge 2: Andrea, Cristina]
You are an unnatural saviour
(Oh, oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh)
Self-abuser hurt your own
(Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh)
All the answers sweet seduction
(Oh, oh, oh, oh...)
Chaos-keeper out of control
[Pre-Chorus: Cristina]
So special, this feeling
To be common (to be common) like you
[Chorus: Cristina, Andrea]
It's really weird to say
That here in the future we're not living all our life
That's what I know
We're incomplete despite of a new millennium
Wonderful to say (you're hiding)
That you'll never know (you're hiding) when the world is going to fall (you're hiding)
And that is all I know (you're hiding)
We're incomplete (you're hiding) despite of the new millennium
[Chorus/Outro: Cristina, Andrea]
It's really weird to say
(Take off your veil)
That here in the future we're not living all our life
(I'll be your fate)
That's what I know
(Take off your veil)
We're incomplete despite of a new millennium
(I'll be your fate)
Wonderful to say
(Take off your veil)
That you'll never know when the world is going to fall
(I'll be your fate, take off your—)
And that is all I know
(Take off your veil)
We're incomplete despite of the new millennium
(I'll be your fate, take off your—)
It's really weird to say
(Take off your veil)
That here in the future we're not livin' all our life
(I'll be your fate, take off your veil, I'll be your fate)
That's what I know
(Take off your veil, I'll be your fate)
We're incomplete despite of a new millennium
(Take off your veil, I'll be your—fate)
