about

At the ninth month of this 2023 sees the light "Chains Of Sadness" that makes use of the valuable contribution of Eli Lev, Israeli videomaker. It is a song that wants to make people hear, not just think, the drama and the absurdity of war. The spiral of violence and devastation that we witness every day comes from a sacrifice celebrated on the wrong altar: that of power. Whenever, in our conscience, we sacrifice our humanity in exchange for what is not life, we trigger the fuse of a new massacre.

"Chains Of Sadness" is the result of a great and generous teamwork; I sincerely thank all the friends who have contributed to the work by dedicating time, energy and art to it:
- Sauro Mori: drums, bass, guitar, keyboard, backing vocals, recording, mixing and mastering;
- Rita Marchetti, English teacher and colleague, for text correction;
- Jennifer Timbang for help with pronunciation;
- Francesco Pellegrini (Walls Of Babylon) for the magnificent guitar solo in the central part of the piece;
- Valerio Gaoni (Walls Of Babylon) for the vocal contribution in all the choruses of the song;
- Giuseppe Asciolla (ACCA Academy) for the creation of the cover;
- Eli Lev (Israel) for the making of the lyric video.
- Nadia Girolamini, Jacopo Salvioni, Giuseppe Schibeci, Stefano Cappannini, Valentina Sorana and all the friends who supported and encouraged me in this project.
- Cristiano Coppa: music, text and voice.

lyrics

CHAINS OF SADNESS
(Cristiano Coppa)

SURROUNDED BY ASHES,
HERE WE ARE WHILE MARCHING ON
THE BLOOD STAINED GROUND.

IT WASN’T OUR FIGHT.
WHAT THE HELL HAVE WE BECOME,
MEN DRUNK WITH POWER.

WE FALL FROM GRACE IN SEAS OF LIES,
CAUSE WE HAVE STAYED AWAY
FROM THE SOURCE OF LIFE AND LOVE.
BUT YOU WILL COME TO US AGAIN,
TO FREE OUR SOULS
FROM THE CHAINS OF SADNESS.

SELF-DESTROYING HUMANITY,
ALWAYS TRYING TO BE LIKE GOD
FEEDING ON PRIDE AND ANGER.

LIKE THUNDER ABOVE US,
RECEIVING OUR WAGES FOR
CREATING INJUSTICE.

WE FALL FROM GRACE IN SEAS OF LIES,
CAUSE WE HAVE STAYED AWAY
FROM THE SOURCE OF LIFE AND LOVE.
BUT YOU WILL COME TO US AGAIN,
TO FREE OUR SOULS
FROM THE CHAINS OF SADNESS (CHAINS OF SADNESS)

CHAINS OF SADNESS
CHAINS OF SADNESS

LOOK INSIDE MY SOUL,
I OPEN ALL THE DOORS TO YOUR LOVE
THAT SETS ME FREE.
IN THE MORNING LIGHT
YOUR BREEZE BLOWS ON MY FACE
I’M COMING HOME.

WE FALL FROM GRACE IN SEAS OF LIES,
CAUSE WE HAVE STAYED AWAY
FROM THE SOURCE OF LIFE AND LOVE.
BUT YOU WILL COME TO US AGAIN,
TO FREE OUR SOULS
FROM THE CHAINS OF SADNESS.

WE FALL FROM GRACE IN SEAS OF LIES,
CAUSE WE HAVE STAYED AWAY
FROM THE SOURCE OF LIFE AND LOVE.
BUT YOU WILL COME TO US AGAIN,
TO FREE OUR SOULS
FROM THE CHAINS OF SADNESS.

WE FALL FROM GRACE IN SEAS OF LIES (YOU)
CAUSE WE HAVE STAYED AWAY (THE SOURCE OF LIFE AND LOVE)
FROM THE SOURCE OF LIFE AND LOVE (YOU’LL COME TO US AGAIN)
BUT YOU WILL COME TO US AGAIN (TO FREE OUR SOULS)
TO FREE OUR SOULS (FROM THE CHAINS OF SADNESS)
FROM THE CHAINS OF SADNESS

WE FALL FROM GRACE IN SEAS OF LIES (IT IS YOU)
CAUSE WE HAVE STAYED AWAY
FROM THE SOURCE OF LIFE AND LOVE.
BUT YOU WILL COME TO US AGAIN,
TO FREE OUR SOULS
FROM THE CHAINS OF SADNESS.
