about

A painting from Leonardo da Vinci inspired us to compose this song: the major of the Medici's family was murdered in Florence in Basilica di Santa Maria by a member of Pazzi's family. He was hanged in the main square in Florence and Da Vinci drew a sketch. In the song we represent this moment, as we were Da Vinci himself.

lyrics

THE HANGED MAN

While I crossed the river walking on the old bridge
I was taken by a shiver, time arrived to judge
Angry people in the squares roaring at those liars
No more than one tear burning up like fire

Oh great painter tell me now

What cruel fate has hanged this man?
Well, young boy I will tell you

The story of a conspiracy

I saw that face hanged up he sinned for his glory

With his minions he killed the lords with no mercy
One fell one lived cathedral seemed like painted blood
The whole city in grief time of vengeance has come

Oh great painter tell me now

What cruel fate has hanged this man?
Well, young boy I will tell you

The story of a conspiracy

Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine
Et lux perpetua luceat eis,
Requiescant in pacem

Amen
