[Part first: awakening]
[Daybreak:]
A September sun emerges through clouds, chasing across the sky.
Thoughts are evoked behind detached eyes but people are just passing by:
With smiles for protection.
Unable to see
Behind the creature that he seems to be.
Once he was a child with burning desires
With hopes and dreams of what was to come.
So he's lost some faith but still there are fires
Deep inside that he must drench to numb.
If we could try to share some of his wounds just for a while.
But we're all just people passing by!
[daniel magdic]
[Midday:]
He's searching through crowds for one that is gone.
Rejecting the facts one more day.
Talking too loud to silence the glow. Coldness becoming his way.
Empathy can't reach through all that blame!
Smiles now forgotten, locked in their frames!
Now he's counting time in beggings and bottles
Fading away beneath old news.
So he lost a war: "will I be dead very long?"
He can still hear his voice through the coldness!
If we could try to ease some of his pain just for a while.
But we're all just people passing by!
[Part second: memorials (instrumental)]
[Part last: nightfall]
Once he was strong, and filled with visions.
With life ahead he set his aims.
Then things went wrong.
Now his ambitions have turned to smiles conserved in frames.
Still could be strong could be a prophet!
He would teach truth to every man!
He'd see the light through every shadow, but Entropia denies he can!
He's sitting numb while dusk is falling. Alone he whispers his "goodnight"
Turning away, when sleep is calling, from all the people passing by...
Pain of Salvation is a Swedish progressive metal band formed in Stockholm in 1997. The group is led by Daniel Gildenlöw, who handles lyrics, primary composition, guitar and lead vocals. Their sound is characterized by powerful guitar work, a wide vocal range, a sudden shift between heavy and calm passages, intense syncopation and polyrhythmic experimentation. Another hallmark of the band is that each album is a concept album. Among the themes addressed in their albums are sexuality, war and its impact on family and humanity, environmental issues (such as nuclear power), the formation of the individual, and the nature of God, humankind, and existence. Some of their most important albums include *Remedy Lane* (2007) and *BE*. (2012). Some representative tracks include 'Linoleum', 'The Road Less Travelled' and 'Enigmatic'.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
