Between black and white and any grey;
between gold and things that you can’t pay;
between sharks or goblins of light;
between try or die.
You can look around or close your eyes;
you can give your best or pass it by;
set on time or make that call;
break or fix it all.
You can breakdown if you were wrong.
You can find ways full of thorns…
but you know that heroes can’t give in,
so you clench your teeth.
Even bleeding through your rain,
with no forgiveness from you to root out pain,
you will have to choose your steps.
So choose the next.
I can just go on, I can survive,
or I could remember who I am.
You can’t help but you are here.
That’s enough for me.

Worse than you
04:04
|
|||
I lost my brave soul betting wrong.
I lost my strength in a battle fighting alone.
I lost my goodness, my good words, trying to be…
but I am not. That’s something I’ve learned from it.
I crossed the lake of being cool
and, baby, I really sucked.
I was the (wo) man of always and never
when we only’ve got one moment: only NOW. Try to live it.
Look at me. I’m worse than you.
I got affected
when I realized.
Now it’s been digested,
So don’t you think I’m gonna cry.
I’ve been collecting
this million of mistakes.
Now I can burn them
cause I’m quite sure I’ll take them again.
Look at me. I’m worse than you.

The common ones
03:27
|
|||
They were born to save the world,
so strong and so free to love
and do the best with every day,
with all their light.
So here we go with weightless stuff:
that look, those wonderful words
to show a special way of life,
cowardly life, so empty life.
Fighting for the scepter and killing for the crown,
looking through a window of dirty glass.
So here we are, the common ones,
so weak but breaking the chains
to do the best with every day
despite the dark.
So don’t lie no more. We’re good enough
to try to smash this black wheel
and build a new uncertain ship
without your rock, your selfish rock.
Fighting with no anger and dying for some rights.
Not an aim, it’s just a way to peace and smile.
You could drop your scepter, forget about the crown
and raise your eyes to real being
to feel like common ones.

My Revelation
05:25
|
|||
Wake up lazy this morning
with this never stopping rain.
I prepare some coffee
but always on this way… on this way.
I stand in front of the mirror
but it returns the same face… same old face.
Even so you kiss me… Fine for me!
Tell me why you choose me among this world.
I see the truth in your calm deep eyes.
He said “don’t give me that
cause you blow me down
and I’ll always love your faults”.
You give me a kinf of feeling
that I never felt before.
(Yeah, c’mon now,
I tell you I never felt before, no, no)
Hold me tight in your arms
because I don’t wonna run.
Now my soul is drinking
from the potion of your love.
Three wise rabbits smiled and winked at me.
Tell me why you choose me among this world.
I see the truth in your calm deep eyes.
He said “don’t give me that
cause you blow me down
and I’ll always love your faults”.
… said I’ll always love your faults…
… love your faults…
… love your faults, yeah.
Tell me why you choose me among this world.
I see the truth in your calm deep eyes.
He said “don’t give me that
cause you blow me down
and I’ll always love your faults”.

White horse
03:10
|
|||
Everyone’s dancing all around, I’m on the wall.
I can watch everything of you and you’re not so.
I can’t stand but I figure out that you’re not you,
so I go away riding my white horse
but I’m not blue.
I can’t explain what it means to me to burn it all.
Hope you don’t mind if a give in, cause there’s no battle at all.
And maybe before this October ends
lough and life will kill my trickery
and high again.
Don’t you worry, we were not wrong.
We can say we reached gold on top.
We’re just different and on different tracks
but no so stupid to lie ourselves again
shooting the moon.
I wake up and I figure out,
finally I do.
So I go away riding my white horse.

I found a complete love,
I felt that real connection.
I was so close to God,
that white soul of perfection.
But it always had an end,
the biggest crash.
They’ll keep trying to be
but not me… I am.
I never die
if I don’t need it.
You like to play
but I love winter.
Let me confuse your shield,
my favorite murder.
Ice covers every leave
but I know it’s only water.
And it never has an end,
the biggest sky.
Some keep trying to be
but not you. We are.

Summer storm
03:08
|
|||
We are drops of the same summer storm
but we can’t evaporate despite the hot.
And later we could drive to a terrible failure
or a truth… a blinding truth.
I know it’s not the same for you and me to hold this star.
Girl, now our time sleeps but, who can say it won’t get up?
Days and steps that I am facing with a smile
although it’s so hard to breathe… and you know why.
Feed myself with clouds and fears,
walking like a child,
greeting all my enemies.
Help me to discover
all about this land,
but now I don’t need everything…
Wait for us to shine.

Inside
04:53
|
|||
Watching some pieces piled around my feet
I thought I was getting real knowledge,
but pieces are not even close to be Everything
so I didn’t know it was Nowhere.
I saw every color but I did it one by one.
I couldn’t picture they could be together.
So that was the world: pure senses dying in my arms.
Some matches to show me the sun,
that little canvas to paint the sky,
with the Universe falling apart
and no handle inside.
Now all that pieces are flying in an infinite space
and Everything cannot be known.
And every color and some millions more
grow from my bones.
Unstoppable Freedom: let your wisdom lead the way
and bet my doubts I’m still afraid.
Too hard to understand
cause you can feel but not define
the Magic that blows light and dark,
that little nothing becoming a star,
with the Universe held in our hands
and no questions inside.
Hunt like the lion looking for that changing truth.
Forget your vision to watch the surrounding crew.
Let’s eat some rules.
And maybe we could live in Mr. Lennon’s world,
Imagine here is really there.
Doubts are fading with this rain,
Monster’s gone with the fog,
masks are turning into real hope,
hate has burned in love
and that should be enough to fix this hash we’ve done.

Coat of light
04:29
|
|||
Here you have my soul eruption. You’d better listen well.
I’ve never shown my deepest tears… It’s time to check.
I’ve been a fighter, I’ve been a lover... I swear I gave it all.
But this wasteland’s poisoning my breath.
And now
I’ve found I’m wearing shoes for a better walk.
I’ll try
to use my blood to climb and reach the top… My every top.
Too tired of looking around afraid of letting someone down,
tasting my sour of grapes over and over and over again.
Don’t tell me how to behave, I’ve been thinking a thousand days
and a kind of answer is rising here…
… cause now
I’ve found I’m wearing shoes for a better walk.
I’ll try
to use my wings to fly and reach the sun… My every sun.
I hide
the compass for my way behind my eyes.
My stones are gone
leaving here these feathers as I start on.
Trust my word:
I won’t give in to this world,
This nonsense field of rye
which sometimes coats myself with all its light.
And now
I’ve got shoes for a better walk,
and use my blood to climb and reach the top.
Take my coat of light… My coat of light.
Take my coat of light… My coat of light.
Take my coat of light.

My ghost
04:06
|
|||
I can’t understand
what moves this world.
You were all my hope.
Now I see you go.
I’ve known every sword.
I’ve cried for too long.
Nonetheless I gave you my rest
just to see how I burn.
Fail of truth:
my over shame,
my real life.
Growing ghost,
Oh!, my love, my breath,
Will you stay to see the end?
|
||||
11. |
||||
Please, hold me,
hold me with your wings around my chest
and, please, take me,
take me anywhere where I can rest.
So hurry up, my friend.
You know better than me that I can’t wait.
Heaven came,
you came here to rain me with your love
and then I failed.
Something sure is that I’m not enough.
So I don’t need another proof.
I am sitting in my pain waiting for you.
When everything is less than all
I think I have this right to fall.
My empty courage has lived a long life
and you can bet I’ll miss you… but it’s time to go.

LUBACK Madrid, Spain
Established in 2011, LUBACK has encompassed rock, blues and folk into a unique style. After many concerts and their first album (“Inminente”, 2014, written in Spanish), a new language was needed in order to talk about those things that matter most in our lives (“Relative keys for vital subjects”, 2016). Their last record (“The deal”, 2019) shows their growth towards a pure organic bright style. ... more
