Fail better with all our cams on to shoot endless grey afternoons Raindrops on the windows Moon beams through the smoke A blurry hole Fail better just to start it over Trying to break that blind faith What do we take with us? What do we give? Another fine solution for a crappy conversation A calculated cost Coming out for business A loveless end That's what we worth

Unboiled egg 03:35
I feel like an animal on the edge of horizon I feel like a thumb on a plastic bubble So when you come down What do you expect? An unboiled egg We cannot survive in a permanent lie We have to get what we expect We sail and we shine in a different light Like a summer rain memory Like the taste of a strawberry

There's a girl in the well She's cold like a knife A flower in the dirt An ice cream into hell A girl in the well My bones are aching My lips are cheating My hands are praying There's a girl in the well And all I can do Is lying to my mother Is lying to my father I swear that I loved her I swear that I loved her Poor girl in the well Poor girl in the well

There is something more than ashtray fever There is something more than evil There is something more than troubles on the way There is something more than "I don't know her" There is something more than opportunity Something more than signs from outer space There is something more than ancient flavours There is something more than desert There is something more than fishing without lens There is something more than lifetime failures There is something more than "Trust me baby" There is something more than me and you, today...

And then i wake up in the middle of the night I speak to a ghost And then I realized that ghost it's me I ask my ghost "Are you happy? Do you suffocate? Do you really relized that a stone has been thrown in the ocean? Won't you feel that desire?Won't you feel that desire?" But you're alone in the mirror And the face that you see is another old bone with seven big holes Another slap in your face Another silly disgrace Someone in the back of your head Monsters as we are When traffic lights are yellow And what I hate in me is what I hate in you This small view But you're alone in the mirror And the face that you see is another old bone with seven big holes Another slap in your face Another silly disgrace Someone in the back of your head Monsters as we are When traffic lights are yellow And what I hate in me is what I hate in you This small view

about

Solo unreleased recordings by Riccardo Bertini, voice and guitar of Mammooth. An intimate and melancholic trip following (with great humility) the steps and the traces of Mark Eitzel, Peter Gabriel and Tom Waits in a special and original way.
