Gaïa Sin Phonic - Walking Upright Verse 1 Billion years in the making Defined the world that we see Glorified by the rays of lights The earth was brought to life It first appeared in the waters Than shaped itself to reach the land In all the species that had come to be Expanding from life itself Pre chorus An ever-changing world was made alive It’s evolution Breaking into time Chorus So it evolved from then From the cells of the land Transition of this life We can barely explain When began the story And sadly, how it ends So many theories After-chorus Out of the blue, appeared a creature who could think Fascinated by what it’s own mind created As they began to plan and innovate Walking upright, communicate Jazz bridge It’s the new way of walking and the groove is getting louder The first cave painting prove their growing visions No longer will they be afraid of playing with fire “This flaming light will burn our enemies” Guitar solo/Verse 2 They have crafted the spear To be the ultimate hunter As they spread all across the globe Before the continent shattered Moved from cave to construction The wheel is turning and helped them move the stones In all the cultures that had come to be From village to empire Pre-chorus But still some mysteries remain THE evolution To the kingdom of mankind Chorus No need to harmonize With the world that Has made them Nothing stands in the way Of the beast who could think They have riseN in the sky Through the frontiers of space For a glimpse of infinity After-chorus Everything was going on so perfectly Before men claimed the crown of the earth Their intellect has proven no respect No need to merge, to be as one has the truth been hidden from us? the origin of mankind Outro We can’t go back to change the walk of evolution The time is now it’s in the hands of men A strange mix of love, hate creation and destruction Let’s hope they live in peace someday

Circus Freak 04:23
Gaïa Sin Phonic - Circus Freak Verse 1 Stolen from their family Beaten with a stick This show is a catastrophe But it sure sells really quick There will be several sanctions if they don’t Perform their silly tricks Uncivilized ways to make them understand Resistance is useless They have to perform tricks Chorus: It’s a misuse of nature Fed by torture The human nature Pain for your pleasure Don’t bring your kids to this madness Let the animal out of this sadistic mess Free them of their chains Give them what they claim Free them of their chains! yeah! Verse 2: Reduced to object of amusement Dominated by this race This race that we call our own Is unashamed to rule the show Revealing backstage cruelty where they are Abused for their own skills It is time to talk for those who cannot speak Give them back their dignity React to what you see Chorus 2: It’s a misuse of nature Fed by torture The human nature Pain for your pleasure Don’t bring your kids to this madness Let the animal out of this sadistic mess oh! Free them of their chains Give them what they claim Free them of their chains! yeah! Outro: Or forever slave to be... The circus freak you see Yeah! All right! All right my friend I’ll see you again On the other side Under those cruel, cruel lights

Wolf's Tribe 06:12
Gaïa Sin Phonic - Wolf's Tribe Verse 1 A new day has awakened And my eyes are already opened Feeling the heat of the sun My spirit is ready to walk on All around me the forest screams it’s beauty Through the water’s reflection I can see the beast I overrun Pre-chorus: How could this be me For their kind I’ve got no sympathy I’ve been killing greedily for money Now nature is showing me what I could not see Chorus: Now I own a wolf’s tribe How could this be I had my own life And killing them was my duty Facing the sunlight I finally feel free Verse 2 In this gathering of exotic lust I can feel and I can trust What I once refused to embrace Struggle between beast and man Taking over my soul Now is my second chance to prove I’m not cold-hearted Pre-chorus: How could this be me For their kind I’ve got no sympathy I’ve been killing greedily for money Now nature is showing me what I could not see Chorus: Now I own a wolf’ s tribe How could this be I had my own life And killing them was my duty Facing the sunlight I finally feel free Piano solo/Minor verse: Across the river I can smell someone Feeling the danger I can’t trust anyone If the beast is a man I’m surely close to the end Fearing gun canons My instincts tell me to run I can hear their foot steps I can smell their filth They are already here Colors moving before my eyes As I run for safety A bullet crushed my head Blood gushing everywhere I weep while they cheer Guitar solo Final Chorus: It’s the end of my wolf’s tribe How could this be I had my own life And they took it away from me nature’s still inside I’m feeling alright...

Lost Soldier 06:55
Gaïa Sin Phonic - Lost Soldier Verse 1 Seeing human aggression on every corner Finding no signs of values No one to care about environmental issues Lost in the world degradation No hero by our side We face this world alone The knights of our conscience are gone But the dreams remain They have managed to survive This world… This pain… Deep inside!!! Verse 2 What can we possibly say? To a young man trapped in confusion Whose only wish is to change this reality Get a chance to be somebody The offer he had yesterday Just seemed like the only way Finally, he will prove he is worthy Suddenly, he could make a change Pre-chorus They told him he could be a hero for his country Live a life full of adventure Helping the ones in need Without knowing what was hidden under their hypnotizing speech He signed all the papers And joined them in vain! Chorus Strongly motivated Trying to make them proud Suddenly his life is changing Every morning, out for training Its time to break free Strong and ready He found a way to leave his past behind where it belongs Solo guitar/Verse 3 And after all that he’s been through Nothing seemed to get to him Is superior insults had no effect or so few… Showing strength to gain some respect While every day they raise the edge But he believes in the choice he has made for himself Pre-chorus They told him he could be a hero for his country Live a life full of adventure Helping the ones in need! Without knowing what was hidden under their hypnotizing speech He signed all the papers (and joined them in vain) Chorus 2 Slowly understanding Everything behind By the time he ended training His point of view had changed Its time to take the plane Because war can’t wait The battlefield revealed the truth to him After-chorus Its not like they said it would be In order to survive He became the thing he swore to destroy NO enemies but lost soldiers like me Trying to stay alive Then who’s to blame? For the death of a thousand soldiers please don’t forget about me try, try, try, try, Not to forget about me Solo guitar/Chorus 3 Sadly realizing He is just a number That no one will remember Even if he lives, will he recover? Too late to turn back To end those visions He’s shooting with eyes closed After-chorus 2 Lost in the blood of the Warfield He managed to survive But some real injuries where left inside NO enemies but lost soldiers like me And I killed them all The choice has been made And the politicians are delighted

Gaïa Sin Phonic - Desert Of Man Verse 1 They couldn’t remember, our days When the air was still pure They couldn’t discover, Our world When the forest grew so tall Nothing was left for them to learn from Somehow, Nothing was left for them to see Verse 2 Every year A new plague rises And every day, Children die And they wonder, Why life was meant to fade away As they try hard to survive chorus 1 Presenting the world when we are gone The human child of our near future Became the victim of our actions… We leave them in a world filled with pollution With no resources to reach tomorrow Without a place to call their own We left them no hope no hope, no home... Verse 3 To the future generations Doomed by the previous ones After the world wars And the choice we made Their own future was confiscated It’s a dead end for mankind Do you realize all that we left behind? This is our legacy A shattered land chorus 2 Presenting the world when we are gone The human child of our near future Became the victim of our actions… We leave them in a world filled with pollution With no resources to reach tomorrow Without a place to call their own We left them no hope Rock finale: Tell them why No more birds will come singing While the temperature’s rising Factories have poisoned the air Tell them we’re the disaster As they crave for a future Trapped in the desert of man Heal this land End their pain Heal the earth It’s too late Now that they stand near the end of the world What can be done? Against mankind redemption outro this land will become the land of our sons this world is not ours... forever someday, we will be gone

Gaïa Sin Phonic - The Balance Of It All Intro 1: Oh let’s stand up Stop listening to all the plans they present to you Let’s make a stand For our homeland They sell, And waste The essential needs Like water, Forest and pure air We buy from them and depend on the system We waste more and we expand! Wake up Witness the wildlife scream The flaws of science hAs expropriated life Natures in peril in the landfill we’ve created Clean energy is at hand you remember And we could make it work all together Its equilibrium or disaster Choose your path Verse 1: Inside yourself within society The conflict remains it’s a reality Economy versus ecology Life won’t survive if you ask me I fear the world will change for us to see Climatic rage will be monotony Economy versus ecology Can we find the balance of it all?

Verse 2: The war is on for the oil industry Behind your back they’re cutting all the trees Technology versus ecology Financial theories Nuclear trash hidden under the sea We know it’s there but we need energy Technology versus ecology Will earth survive from man? Chorus (2) Feel the eco system dying While those in need don’t stand a chance Do you realize really realize They sold your land Do you realize really realize They sold your land Feel the echo system dying... while those in need don’t stand a chance!

The Bridge 08:10
Gaïa Sin Phonic - The Bridge Verse 1 Here we are standing in front of you Staring at the beauty of it all Searching for the quietness of the night Filling up the gap within our souls Here we are lying in the sand Shivering like leaves before the fall Starting to believe what wasn’t real Understanding truly who we are Chorus 1 All at once, I see I can make, Your dreams Free to live, I will Walk the distance Between You and I Look at me, Inside hEar the call, The vibe Feel the peace, Will you Walk the distance Before The skies Verse 2 Here you are making up your way Through this life you try to ease the pain Looking through the eyes of a broken star Running after all you wasted away won’t you Take the time to reach up to your heart Tell me how it is that that you can’t see What is the good reason to break free The nature of your will strong as can be Chorus 2 look at me inside hear the call, the vibe feel the peace, will you Walk the distance, before the skies All at once, I see I can make, Your dreams Free to live, I will Walk the distance Between You and I Guitar solo/Bridge Do you believe that everything happens for a reason?

Gaïa Sin Phonic - Break Of Dawn Intro She came to me As the deepest desire I had ever encountered There ain’t no words To describe what I saw And neither to explain How I felt inside She had long dark hair And the sweetest little face Graceful curves and cat-like eyes So I’ve introduced myself to her And she answered with a smile Can this be? Dare to see Gotta let this night become the night of our life time Wildest dream, attraction before my eyes Verse 1 Then the time simply stopped She was there, all alone I did not understand Why she was on her own I could not lose my chance But I knew how it feels When a beautiful angel Takes shape in your heart Never knowing What will happen At the break of dawn Chorus 1: Candle lights With a flame of desire She will be mine tonight Like a whispering fantasy She came alive And made me lose my mind The instincts took control of me This passion flows inside Within herself Within herself Tonight Verse 2 Then it felt like a shock Like a hot Latin rock When she reached for my lips And took me to her room She was all mine to use I was dazed and confused While this beautiful stranger Took shape in my heart Never knowing What will Happen At the break of dawn Chorus 2: Candle lights With a flame of desire She will be mine tonight Like a whispering fantasy She came alive And made me lose my mind The instincts took control of me This passion flows inside Within herself Within herself Tonight

One Last Day 05:55
Gaïa Sin Phonic - One Last Day Intro Hey! When was the warning? Is this the end of our lives? Is it time for us? Is this a nightmare? Someone awake us in time Before the reaper comes Verse 1 One last day And so much left to say I suddenly regret all the pain I made to others All those things I did MOSTLY those I should have done Carrying the weight of this tragic knowledge Knowing this world will end tonight What would you do? If you knew you had only one last day? Chorus 1 Save me Guide me Heal me I GOT CARRIED Away Could this be the last day? Can you take this away? Verse 2 One last day No more time left to pray It’s hard to say goodbye when you didn’t plan to leave All those dreams you had All the sacrifices you made Leaving your love in this saddest moment Knowing tomorrow will never come What would you do? If you knew you had only one last day Chorus 2 Where would you go? If there’s no more road No more sun to light your way No distance to get away No escape Save me Guide me Heal me I GOT CARRIED Away Could this be the last day? Bridge So, What do you want to do last? With Only 24 hours to go Before the end of days How would you say goodbye to those you love? Unfair and surprising Here’s the moment We have all feared The time when our true gift Will be taken away from us Back to dust Hope is lost Take my hand Love me until the end Hey, that was a warning go on and enjoy your life Before time runs out GO!!! Guitar solo/Outro So the next time you feel like giving up on life When all your hope seems to weaken by despair Think about the chance that you have to be alive And know that things could always be worse Nobody should have to choose the day they die While the innocent face their undeserved death By the hands of the murderer in a tragic accident By an incurable disease Your life could end in a flash without knowing why It was your turn Why it was your time It’s always when you lose it that you truly miss it And the end comes too soon…

Choices 08:23
Gaïa Sin Phonic - Choices Intro So many chapters overflowing with cruelty Aggressively reformed in a more civilized time With every century (with every memory) the shadow of greed the quest for glory Verse 1 Every day of our existence Crucial decisions needed to be made Sometimes we don’t see the impact of those choices But at the end Everything depends on it Must we follow the same path our predecessors did? Pre-chorus Would you please Open your eyes And take the time to… Reconsider the options Look all around you We’ve got so much to lose And so few who really cares Violently the truth will comes For every choices has its own cost Chorus Everything depends upon The choice we make on each day Living like there’s no tomorrow Consequences will soon follow take a moment to look back in mankind’s history you will find out nothing has changed in human nature Verse 2 Every day near your residence Factory’s building bombs ready to explode While your country tells you its for your good and protection The result is a massive destruction Above everyone huge corporations Are pulling the wires Pre-chorus 2 They bought the resources that belong to every living being Wasting food everyday While some nations are starving and dying Millions wasted in arsenal No more doctors to heal the sick In this proud society (what do you see?) Chorus 2 everything depends upon The choice we make on each day Living like there’s no tomorrow Consequences will soon follow take a moment to look back in mankind’s history you will find out nothing has changed in human nature After-chorus All those men we have hanged or shot down Because of their point of view or the color of their skin We truly need to open our minds! Bridge Most of you would say What choices do we have? I’m losing control of my own life And you ask me to change the world What you ask is nothing but an idealist vision Who am I to make a change? Is there someone who cares? Why is it that the most powerful men Only claims for higher power and never considered the others Chorus 3 everything depends upon The choice we make on each day Living like there’s no tomorrow Consequences will soon follow take a moment to look back in mankind’s history you will find out nothing has changed
