Charmed 03:09
lyrics
buy track
Usually a man Is induced to think that Fall is the prelude of Winter Melancholic Winter Though these sad short days The white snow and the bronze leaves Do transform these periods And enhance a proper setting For a free introspection Simply charmed Thanks Nature ‘cause you look after me Taking me ‘round with your seasons Thanks Nature ‘cause you spur me to improvement Making me understand the meaning of life Making me understand what the real sense of being is The meaning of life

Just You 04:51
lyrics

Hey you, think about the roads that you walked on Hey you, don’t you forget the love you’ve fallen for Hey you, regrets they make you grow Just you, learn from the mistakes that made you arrive here And I’d be flying away, flying back homeward Look at my face in the mirror knowing I’m not alone Hey you, who are the childhood friends of yours? Hey you, does what you do make you happy? Hey you, it might seem nothing but it’s everything to me Just you, there’s always something to love though there’s always something to leave Nobody ever taught me how to face the suffering But nothing’s harder than learning to walk again Hey you, do you feel too young to understand? Hey you, I need someone who forgives me another day Hey you, do you feel too old be lent a hand? Just you, please listen to what I say I kept my happiness safe talking with my imaginary friends But now that everything is real, how can I react? The best is yet to come, realize it as soon as you can The best is yet to come, but don’t you forget where it all began

Beyond the Sun 03:41
lyrics

Singing and laughing In the town we both born And we believe in what we are and what we’ve done I’ll be there by your side But please don’t question my Imperfect and true friendship Never give up now I believe in what we are I believe in love I believe in the Sun that shines ‘til the dawn I believe in given smiles That change people’s life Brother, we’ll meet beyond the Sun Brother, we’re going to meet when we’ll be beyond the Sun Do you believe in what we’ll never part? Words and tears have long dried up with my emotions Just ‘cause I don’t see the way you feel day after day Doesn’t mean that I forgot how to sing with you I believe in what we are I believe in love I believe in the Sun that shines ‘til the dawn I believe in given smiles That change people’s life Brother, we’ll meet beyond the Sun Brother, we’re going to meet when we’ll be beyond the Sun Is the past our life? We work for a better future than our present

Alligator 02:31

I’ve been working 10 hours a day for mouths It really makes life a drag Well, I saw my baby walking with another man today When I asked her what's the matter This is what I heard her say See you later, alligator Don’t you know you really cramp my style? See you later, alligator I’m asleep and cigarettes keep my company She’s in another man’s arms And I spend my money in alcohol and women But the next time that I’ll see her I’ll remind her what she said See you later, alligator Don’t you know you really hurt me? See you later, alligator Won't you say that you can’t breathe under the water? From that day everybody calls me Hey hey, mr. ‘Gator Jail doesn’t change my soul See you later, alligator Looked at her face once more Yes, I’m the alligator Yes, you know you really hurt me See you later, alligator

The Others 04:24
lyrics

Waiting for times to change Waiting to arise My freedom is real until yours prevails How many people are watching? How do they all see me? Every breath you take can be heard Every move you make can be seen by me You know what they are You are just the others And they’re simply rating, rating people Like you do when the others are you I kept my emotions in I looked for you I’ve been waiting for you Why do you pass me by pretending I do not exist? When I lock my home’s door I face the world with the keys in my hand Ready to get back If we were sons of the same mother Maybe I’d hate you more If I knew you Maybe I’d avoid you more You know what they are You are just the others And they’re simply rating, rating people Like you do when the others are you Tell me What you feel What you feel From the other side What you see What do you see?

Folded Sky 02:46
lyrics

I just need a piece of mind I believe it would fit fine I believe I’d feel just like never before If I’d take all the time In my hands so to rewind I believe I’d go all the way back to my youth Babe, this folded sky Looked better when you were a child Babe, your virgin eyes Saw through life as a big surprise I just need some peace of mind To make life look kind of mild I believe it’d taste just like never before I just need to break the mold Take the sky and make it fold If I ever stop dreaming while getting old What if I told you to trade dreams with gold? Then my answer would still be no Babe, this folded sky Looked better when you were a child Babe, your virgin eyes Saw through life as a big surprise A brave heart Can make art Out of silly parts A brave heart Can make art Out of silly parts I wish I Could do as A child’s able to do To look at the sky and turn it into...

Today your eyes are different than yesterdays I look at your face and I see some tears Listen to me, girl I’m your man I’m falling in love with you, girl I do love you I won’t ever leave you, girl I do love you Rainy days and clouds of forgiven choices I embrace you, I join into your beauty Listen to me, girl We’ll never part I’m falling in love with you, girl I need you I couldn’t exist without you, girl I need you, girl Down and cry Down and cry in the house of love

Secrets in Your Eyes 04:47
lyrics
buy track
The rose conceals her frailty Behind the rudeness of thorns The sky’s lit by a dead star You wish upon since it’s born Beauty just gave away the secrets in your eyes Life is too short to run away or give up without a fight Miracles hide behind The daily gestures we made We all shall try to be kind And love both their lights and shades

about

“Pictures” is a 5 album collection by Virtual Time. The band is going to realize them during the year 2018, as a working progress. The albums will be very different in genre and way of production, but all together they will show the band’s artistic path and growth.

Chapter I
“From The Roots To A Folded Sky” is the heterogeneous 1st chapter. It features ballads, inspired by folk and classic rock, plus something unexpected. There is a careful sound research and the mixing has been done by 3 different people. The album is adorned by visual artists’ touches. The cover art is a shoot by Norwegian photographer Emily Hamn. The young and talented Silvia Reginato has been inspired by the first listen to create a drawing for each track, as you can see on band’s You Tube channel. The title “From The Roots To A Folded Sky” is the band’s mission. Starting from debut unreleased tracks, they have worked on new arrangements and sounds to update them. It’s like the origami art, that gives new shapes to simple paper sheets.
