[00:00.00]EPIKA - Chapter VII:
[00:00.00]Now we are in 2019 and "MYSTICA" does not sell as much as "EPICA" considered too spiritual, personal and dark by critics and fans and Michael, severing the contract with Johannes Faust and squandering all his earnings on charity work, falls into disgrace and Having become poor, he returns to London and finds himself wandering like a homeless person and decides to become a street artist, living day by day, returning to his old love for Music and Poetry: he plays the guitar, sings and asks passers-by for alms by reciting verses. by Dante and William Blake. He has renounced every ephemeral success and every lust and vanity and has found his inner Jesus Christ and in Westminster Abbey, on a night of pouring rain between thunder and lightning, Ariel appears to him who, as an Immortal, has crossed the centuries and lives like a Vampire hidden from society and in the shadow always under the protective wing of the Silver Star and Mephisto who also has his Soul locked in an alchemical alembic, but confesses to him that he is tired of living and only wants to die and see Helena again in the afterlife if this exists. Ariel confesses to him that she has been looking for him for centuries driven by a mysterious and strange call towards a Consecrated and Sacred Land for other Immortals like him and which is precisely London.
[00:00.00]SOUL SOCIETY
[00:00.00](New Lyrics and Vocal Melodies by Antonio Giorgio)
[00:00.00](Michael):
[00:06.00]“Considerate la vostra Semenza/
[00:10.00]Fatti non foste a viver come Bruti ma per seguire Virtute e Canoscenza”
[00:15.00](*From “The Divine Comedy” of Dante Alighieri)
[00:17.00](Ariel):
[00:17.95]If my soul could revive
[00:23.97]From my carnal remains
[00:27.76]What does it matter to me
[00:33.40]If it all fades to black
[00:36.43]If I'm born once again
[00:41.34]Then no one really is free
[00:44.89]How could I be condemned
[00:50.04]For the things that I've done
[00:53.64]If my intentions were good
[00:58.82]I guess I'll never know
[01:02.39]Some things under the sun
[01:07.41]Can never be understood
[01:11.24]How can we believe in heaven
[01:16.29]Human reason counters all
[01:19.94]Ideas of a soul society
[01:24.47]My life is just a fragment
[01:30.34]Of the universe and all
[01:33.79]There must be more than I can see
[01:38.27]In the dark we're the same
[01:43.79]In the concept of time
[01:47.34]We're like a grain in the sand
[01:52.54]And we strive for the flame
[01:56.24]As if death was our aim
[02:01.37]Cause we cannot understand
[02:04.99]How I wish there was heaven
[02:10.22]All for one and one for all
[02:13.92]A flawless soul society
[02:18.49]Our lives are just a fragment
[02:24.16]Of the universe and all
[02:27.76]There may be more than we can see
[02:32.00](Michael):
[02:32.40]“To see a World in a Grain of Sand/
[02:35.35]and a Heaven in a Wild Flower/
[02:38.80]Hold Infinity in the Palm of your Hand/
[02:42.30]and Eternity in an Hour”
[02:44.60](*Verses of William Blake)
[02:48.33]Se un giorno rinascerò, io di nuovo sarò
[02:54.63]Perso e Dannato perché
[02:58.38]Redenzione non c’è all’Inferno che io
[03:04.83]Vedo riflesso in me
[03:08.53]Ma voglio credere nell’Eden
[03:13.08]Il Mondo della Libertà
[03:16.88]L’Anima della Realtà
[03:20.58]Un Sogno dentro un Sogno
[03:24.38]L’Universo dentro di Noi
[03:28.18]Il Dio della Società, della Società!
