The Beginning (from Phil Collins to Pupi Avati’s Jazz Band, the Big Bang of my story with music) Create, Music that offers beauty, friendship and the joy of living. Music, it’s fun, reflection, rebellion fight and resistance. Music, it’s the wall against every ignorance. Music, it’s change, it’s conviviality. Music builds bridges, and brotherhood. Support the art and the music so that they affirm your free will, your thought. Music, is that breath between utopia and dream, where everything can be. The story of a jazz band / on a tv show Captivates me / and it turns my passion on The main actor / well he, seeps into me Beating my drum / I follow my mission No Teachers for a rocker self-taught in the arts Relies on euphoria to cover all his doubts Vinyl turn on / looking for new heroes Improving my style / as I go In the middle of punk music and new wave tunes Along with my friends we made a new rock group Arranging and recording shaping our own art Performing on stage to everyone we love Then the live shows / free flow emotions Faces watching you / wanting you to play Rise in adrenaline / It’s a magical sensation Electricity in the air / a special display The band is moving up becoming real rock stars Kalashnikov’s a hit: playing on the air The frontman’s ego starts to break up the peace So, the Hirth project / it falls into despair The fire remains the same as new player takes the stage Finding the right drive to take to the new start But nothing lasts for long / soon the curtain calls And all the band / decide to part To the studio we go / full of emotions Players watching you / horizon in my sight Shaping the right sounds / in a perfect concoction Project your mind / in a wonderful light X-Land Born

Reinvent Yourself (banks, finance, corruption have profoundly affected the new generations. Reinventing yourself to fight these evils and live life day by day) Stop yourself / and let the clocks fade Reinvent yourself / all limits fall away Detach yourself / from conforms of this age Committed yourself / to take into your stage Stay away from / killers of the arts Engage those who want the revolution Unleash all the energy you have Capture it all in your imagination Even if you feel you’re all alone Life still belongs to all of you Take care and love the madness It’s simple harmony if you do The power / of chords and notes Lifeblood / for all the world Antidote / to snake poison Of greedy, corrupted / politician Believe your dream / It yours to take Do not be afraid / of others’ hate Tired of gossip / freedom thieves Fight the fancy / come with me Abuse of socials / takes our freedom away mouth to sing / and fingers to play A new rule / for each and every day Have them scream out. Your real name Believe in your dream, believe in your dream Believe in your dream, believe That’s your dream / it yours to take Do not be afraid of / others’ judgment and hate Tired of gossip / freedom thieves Fight the fancy / want you come with me?

My Life 06:05
My Life (dedicated to my wife, the essential part of my whole life) When I’m with you / I’m where I should be Where the joy runs / in and out of me I see your shadow / always by my side Shine away / into the night I’ve been too damn busy / too many years And left all that I love / drowning in tears You’ve been all alone / long, long enough But you’re so special / you gave me your heart You, / you have your own special place Here in my life You, /you have your special way / oh yeah, yeah, yeah In the cold / I feel the warmth / all around me And the rush of your love / like sound it surrounds me Taken down by adversity / taken down by reality While all along / you stay strong Broken in parts / by this world There’s one thing to do / fight for love You, / you have your own special place Here in my life You, / you have your own special way Of kissing my lips I touch your face / I call your name Don’t ever leave me / oh no, no, no, no Broken in parts / fighting for love You have your own special way Of kissing my lips I touch your face / I call your name Don’t ever leave me / oh no, no, no, no

An Evening with Steven Wilson Trieste - April the 26th 2016 (the live show that have changed my life) Steven with his friends / on April 26th They made a show Crossing stages & borders known And led me into a new world a new dimension never travelled There's nothing on this land / so exciting When I perform I’ve never felt this before With a Joy, and shivering / I’ve never known Opened my eyes / to a new world New vibration / deeply carved I absorb the energy of the stars in front of me The show grew / bigger and bigger Affecting me, with / their intensity Suddenly I discover / my new nature In a new reality / with new aspirations. The songs come alive / better than the real thing With alarming / simplicity In their complicity / everything flows Like a calm long / blue river course Bringing warmth / of a forgotten past Giving new life / to my soul Lights illuminate / all around me I can escape / from this world I’ve known I feed each moment of this exhibition Turning myself into a wannabe composer Chord by chord the Rossetti effects Become the first track of my LP Each frame the music grants me Absorbing all of the alchemy Suddenly I discover my new nature In a new reality with new aspirations. The songs are over / but I'm still excited And the shine is sparkling / everywhere Something inside me / forever changed A new target is growing up / very fast A new hero / is part of my life A songwriter’s dream / now is in me With these words written / on a highway A new legend landed / on this world
5.
SILENT HEROES (dedicated to the nearly 700.000 Russian people who with their self-denial have saved the world) You think you live / a perfect life Living In a place ruled by / good guys Men and women work, / and fall in love Children play / and nothing seems off But not all the truth comes out / only what they want Like a puppet in the hands / of dirty bureaucrats Every lie creates a debt to the truth Sooner or later, it all comes down to you And these debts will be payed Feel, no shame, be brave By ordinary people, Honest, selfless, Silent Heroes They want to keep us / down in the dark But you break out, the water looks out They said you’d die / and so you lie down lie to the truth / down to their soul down to the thorn / down to the bone Every lie creates a debt / to the truth Sooner or later, it all comes down to you These debts will be payed Feel, no shame, be brave By ordinary people, Honest and selfless, Silent Heroes Too high was Your sacrifice And all you want now Is to live your life Not knowing you saved the world Every lie creates a debt / to the truth Sooner or later, it all comes down to you These debts will be payed Feel, no shame, be brave By ordinary people, Honest and selfless, Silent Heroes Russian people / Our heroes You saved the world But Russians love the children too
6.
Above the Stars (the power of love) I come in from a rainy day How to see and how to hit The shadows are on your side You belong to the hands of the night Just like a dream / I’d like to disappear And all the stupid things / they can stay right here Now it's not too late / to say goodbye Cause I don’t dream anymore / I just look forward The principle of love / has a great meaning here One we can follow / without any fear Here with my joy / facing the clouds I’m free to fly / floating with the stars going up by far Looking down at Earth / it’s a wonderful sphere Every breathe becomes / a joyful space to fill I wanna tell you / what I feel When I work / by being real I wish I could explain Like the sound of rain Brings you into my mind / into my heart And a love like this / makes us strong We have to live love / as much as we can Forget your past / and take my hand Facing the clouds / I’m free to fly Floating with the stars / going up by far Looking down at Earth / it’s wonderful sphere Every breathe becomes / a joyful space to fill
7.
Growing and Fighting (anorexia is the evil of teenagers) You take the bus / with your head held down And walk to school with… your supposed friends Instead you were / under the breaking cloud With a storm / cascading out You think they told you / the reality but they told you / just fallacies But when you're on your own that’s when you're free You're growing up… and you have to believe… We wish you the best / we are worried about your health We won’t stop / until we reach the end We can feel you more / than you really know We love you more than we’ll ever show There was a time when all was ok Strumming your guitar / dance your hip hop You found a simple life with happiness / it wasn’t so difficult You have to make a list / of all your good results And believe me / it’ s very, very long Cause there’s a lot here / for you my dear / it’s not so difficult You see your past / and all your secrets You share them / with people you’ve never met You slowly move / from our love You're growing up / and I know, it’s hard You are growing up / you have to You are growing up / and You have to BELIEVE Shame on you / for getting older every day This is not what you are / remember who you were You shouldn’t stand there / with all those fucking guys Life is not something / you can do twice You have to value / your beautiful age You have your friends / and mum and me Paul and Steve / are helping us too see That the world / will shine for you Cri… We wish you the best / we are worried about your health We won’t stop / until we reach the end We can feel you more / than you really know We love you more than we’ll ever show There was a time / when all was ok Strumming your guitar / dance your hip hop You found a simple life with happiness / it wasn’t so difficult Think of all the things / you can do And believe me / you’ll see them through Cause there’s a lot out here / for you my dear / it’s not so difficult Just look at the beauty / surrounding you Enjoy every moment / that life offers you Take strength back for dancing Embrace your guitar / and free your voice Embrace your guitar / and LET’S ROCK AGAIN
8.
One Special Day (my luck to have met great musicians and dear friends) I wake up every day / the same old story For a long time now / just running and working But today is special / a great event with my friends We are playing together / at X-land Don't think to the limits / forget all the boundaries The music flowing / excitement on the breeze A full of emotions / feel it in your knees / feel it with me I am ready for / a musical alchemy PASSION, LOVE, HEART AND SOUL / ON THIS SPECIAL DAY IN THE STRATOSPHERE / FLYING BEYOND THE VEIL JUST LIKE A DREAM / YOU WISH WOULD NEVER FADE PASSION, LOVE, HEART AND SOUL / IN THE STRATOSPHERE The game of life / is very hard to play don’t want to lose it / I’m here to stay And even if / life gets hard I wanna give it / all my art No one can erase / this happiness No one can erase / this artwork And a love like this / makes us strong We laugh it off / if things go wrong. PASSION, LOVE, HEART AND SOUL / ON THIS SPECIAL DAY IN THE STRATOSPHERE / FLYING BEYOND THE VEIL JUST LIKE A DREAM / YOU WISH WOULD NEVER FADE PASSION, LOVE, HEART AND SOUL / IN THE STRATOSPHERE
9.
Unleash the Beauty (the decline of record companies and radio networks, which only promote shit and shitty talents, throwing real art into the toilet) Labels want music / that can use to entertain Only last as long / a 15 second fame They want to create / artists in a cage But it’s only business / a heartless game Some just create noise / made for taking pills Just to make money / off your health One of the wonders / of this world It’s crashing down / it’s fading out It’s a big mistake / no one cares enough It’s a failure / that will cost too much Fight to defend the beauty To make a better world And let the light shine again For our children A musical rebellion / is what we need Played by dreamers that can believe a musical rebellion / it’s what we seek It’s the goal / we have to reach Hear the sound of music Made with heart and soul It flies everywhere / each listener its home Feel the music coming / inside of you Squeeze every note and drink in your Music of rebellion / is what we need Artists and dreamers who want to believe A musical rebellion / it’s what we seek This is our goal / we have to reach

I Wanna Play 06:52
I Wanna Play (freedom to narrate the daily life playing the guitar and honour the beauty of good music) I wanna play my songs / so please come along with me I wanna tell you stories / I’ve lived in my life intensely Walking on a cloud / feel the right sound Bleeding on the ground / while I’m travelling around I let go all the lack / and now I’m in a joyful attack I wanna sing my songs / and wake you up to see through them Sparkling from inside/declaring on the outside Living alike / as I write I will be apart / from today’s art My music turns to joy and everything around me is destroyed Encounters and stories / and moments of a life in style Shaping my songs that are steeped in emotions Records can last long / when composition goes beyond This turn of age / with the foolish and the fake I will be apart / from today’s art My music turns to joy and everything around me is destroyed I will be apart / from today’s wave On vinyl must end / performing is what I crave I will be apart / I will be apart From today’s art / From today’s wave I will be apart / I will be apart My music turns to joy / Performing is what I crave
11.
And Then Comes… (our beautiful landscapes against the bad of digital world) When I’m out riding / near where I live Feels like floating / with open eyes Cause I can move / to the bloom And I'm on my way / I’m with my thoughts Look at the people stress / fighting with cars and phones On street corners avoiding / their lovers calls cause they got plans now / and tonight they won't be home Don't let it / bring you down / capture the morning star and then you can fly / free your mind Feeling inside your soul feeding your own control Moving in flow. All around the world And Regenerate / again and again You’ll start awakening / falling in love Finding yourself again / in a dialogue Sore necks and teenage wrecks in this smart age Just look at the world / then things will change Don't let it bring down / Capture the morning star And then you can fly / free your mind Feeling inside your soul / feeding your own control Moving in flow. all around the world And sing your songs / for all the world
