Word after word, speech after speech
Willing to cross the old bridge
Step by step, mile by mile
Running backwards is just a sign

Moon after moon, sun after sun
Searching for more and not for some
Dance after dance, song after song
Still in your mind the first one

You keep shaking this fine old season
Leading all the way your Higher reason

You keep shaking this fine old season
Leading all the way your Higher reason


Day after day, Night after night,
breaking on through the other side
Pray after pray, sin after sin
Show in your mind the great film

You keep breaking this fine old season
Leading all the way your Higher reason

You keep shaking this fine old season
Trading all the way your Higher reason
GUITAR SOLO


You keep breaking this fine old season
Leading all the way your Higher reason

You keep shaking this fine old season
Trading all the way your Higher reason

You keep breaking this fine old season
Leading all the way your Higher reason

You keep shaking this fine old season
Trading all the way your Higher reason

**Cinza Fénix: A Sonic Rebirth from the Heart of Porto**

Emerging from the vibrant streets of Porto, Cinza Fénix is an alternative rock project that channels raw emotion and unfiltered creativity into a sound both haunting and exhilarating. Founded by Mário J. Dias, Miguel A. Dias, and Lynart Shadow, this trio weaves together their individual influences to craft a musical experience that feels like rising from ashes—cinematic, cathartic, and fiercely alive.

With roots deeply embedded in the eclectic energy of Portugal's second city, Cinza Fénix draws inspiration from life’s contrasts—the grayness of struggle ("cinza" meaning "gray") and the fiery resilience of rebirth (symbolized by the phoenix). Their music blends atmospheric textures with driving rhythms, creating soundscapes that oscillate between introspective melancholy and explosive defiance.

Mário J. Dias brings his evocative lyricism and dynamic vocals, painting vivid narratives of love, loss, and redemption. Miguel A. Dias anchors the group with intricate guitar work, weaving melodies that linger long after the final chord fades. Meanwhile, Lynart Shadow adds depth and edge through pulsating basslines and experimental production techniques, ensuring every track resonates with visceral intensity.

As pioneers of their unique sonic identity, Cinza Fénix invites listeners on a journey—a collision of shadow and light, chaos and harmony. Whether performing live in intimate venues or releasing tracks that echo across digital landscapes, they remain steadfast in their mission: to create music that speaks to the soul and ignites transformation.

Cinza Fénix isn’t just a band; it’s a testament to resilience, reinvention, and the power of art born from adversity. From Porto to the world, their story unfolds—one song at a time.
