A crostata is an Italian baked dessert tart, and a form of pie. The jams that are traditionally used as a filling are cherries, peaches, apricots, berries. The crostata can also be blind-baked and then filled with pastry cream (crema pasticcera) topped with pieces of fresh fruit; this is called crostata di frutta. A typical central Italian variety replaces jam with ricotta mixed with sugar, cocoa or pieces of chocolate and anisetta; this is called crostata di ricotta.

Clockwork
by: Crosstidewhen i look in your eyes
for the open wounds behind them
and i look for an answer
i can't see for my reflection
cast yourself and your will aside
you wanted love but you just found anger
cast yourself and your will aside
how long will you wait
i can't answer the questions
your logic is like clockwork
i don't know why i care now
is it guilt or love that holds us
cast yourself and your will aside
you wanted love but you just found anger
cast yourself and your will aside
