ARS ONIRICA was born in 2003 as a full band but after a split-up it came back to life as a one man band thanks to Alessandro Sforza (Invernoir, Veil of Conspiracy). This second opus "II: Lost" takes the sound of the previous album to a higher level, with more intensive melodies and slowered tempos.
Alessandro speaks about "On The Wall": "I started to write this song after visiting Auschwitz - Birkenau in Poland... it was a terrible and intense experience at the same time but what impressed me the most was seeing the scratches on the wall made by the victims inside the crematorium... I will never forget the feeling of pain and desperation I felt inside that place. I tried to put this feelings inside this song and unfortunately now I see that they fit for the nowadays situation that everyone knows... This song is dedicated to all the people who suffered (and to those suffering now) for the war injustice"
LYRICS
Watching the world outside
Watching through the barbed wire
Humanity fades
In grey uniforms
Stained with blood
Weak and powerless
I dream about the end
The only way to leave
This human shell
Tortured and pale
As the snow
In which I see all my friends fall
No one of us will see their loved ones... no more
Tortured and pale
In this snow
Stained with blood once more
No one of us will see their loved ones... no more
The smell of death in the air
And nobody seems to care...
We are all deaf when the screams get higher in that cell
With grief in our heavy hearts
Our hope falls apart
We are just waiting for the end to come
And bring us back home
Tortured and pale
As the snow
In which I see all my friends fall
No one of us will see their loved ones... no more
Tortured and pale
In this snow
Stained with blood once more
No one of us will see their loved ones... no more
What have I done to deserve this?
We don't have any blame
Why must I see all this pain?
And see my life burn through the flames?
How can I forget those screams?
Their echo feeds all my fears
Silently I fall
leaving a scratch on this wall
