Lyrics: Riccardo Toni/Ivan Figliolo
Music: Riccardo Toni/Ivan Figliolo
Before The Law (x4)
I want to enter into the law, I want to see what's beyond (x8)
“it is possible, but not now - If it tempts you so much,
try it in spite of prohibition. - I am only the lowliest keeper
from room to room stand gatekeepers
more powerful than me”
“I've not expected a lot of troubles
the law should be accessible for everyone
it would be better to wait for permission
The gatekeeper can't let me inside yet”
Before the Law there is the keeper
prayers and corruption don't serve us with the justice
We are always guilty before the Law
No one has faith in the law
During the many years the man watches the keeper continuously.
this one seems to him the only obstacle to enter this gate.
Before the Law there is the keeper
prayers and corruption don't serve us with the justice
Everyone’s guilty before the Law
No one has faith in the law
I want to ask you one thing more (x10)
I don't have much time to live - I want to ask you Before my death
“No one has faith in the law - no one has requested entry here”
The keeper shouts at him "Here no one else
can enter since this gate is only for you.
I’m going now to close it forever”
the man at the end slowly fades away
Before the Law there is the keeper…
