Lyrics

1. THE HARD GOODBYE

Let me try to stroke, this heaven
Let me try, let me try to escape
From these blurry lights
My hand, my bloody hand embraced these stones
But they do not lie
My head is turned to the peak
While I'm taking my last gasp
'Cause I know
That I'm here for one final dance
Let me do, I will try to reach the high vault

The highlands don't care, that's why here
Freedom is unleashed
And the world isn't watching us
Just betting on my end
One day, one flight, one hope
To perform the right choice

Here,
There's a war between wind and thoughts...my Thoughts.
A new dusk is blazing,
So much colourful vision
For the last horizon
Horizon...

Dancing, with the wind
I'm falling
Sleeping with truth
I'm gliding


2. HER EMPIRE

She drags clouds with a leash
Surging as a rising tide
Drilling the sky with a storm on her back
She drags clouds with a leash
Making the sand swirl
In an awful hiss

Can you hear the waves collide
And avidly strike the cliffs?
Be careful it's raining!
Sense her eyes flashing!

In order to follow her!
...To follow her!
She's pulling the strings of our mov'ments
Now we can't flee, it's over
Her black dress is
Cov'ring our glances
Trussing our wills
Ripping up our landscapes
Come...
Breathe...
Sleep...
Follow...

She has deployed all her artifices
As murk crushes us
And now
Everybody get on board to abysses
Abysses...


3. HOLLOWMEN IN DRUNK CITIES

Tonight,
Walking through the lights
I'm seeing shadows in love
Faces are Scratched and faded
Minds are lurching
But it's mine
But it's mine


4. ...AND THE TITANS FAILED

Organic matter turned to ashes
And the faceless edifices
Fell on their knees
Above the dusty shroud

Forsaken daily stuff
Suffocate under the recovery
Of last traces of past

Inside the weaken walls
Nobody's still here to hear
The alarm clock which rings
The orphan toys which cry

And in these cold places
A smell of remembrance
Wanders uppon the filth
...But nothing else

Suddenly, ashes get mad
And the walls get pierced
By drafts and light
Tiles targetting red clouds disappear while
Buildings can see their flesh and bones of steel get naked
At last, these titans sunk
In their own evaporating blood


5. AFTER ALL, STARS WILL LEAD US

Sun pierces the dust once again
Lighting several stars hang from a web
Flowers yawn one after another
Under orange and purple resonances that stretch…out

That's it, the scene catches his breath
We can already hear the melody

But the imposing machine
Came to life
And giants wheels of convulsions
Roar in the air

Everything happens now too fast
Flashes unfold by spasms
Souls crawl amuck in all directions
Each searching for a key seen in dreams
Yes, those elusive dreams

The scene catches its breath again
The celestial carousel looses its speed

Reflections change
Behind the new glass towers
Maybe it's already too late, ‘cause
The rays of light burn the highest mountains
In an eruption of sparks.
The smoke elevating, obscures the sky gradually

The cloth falls

…But I, after all, look at these candles
Scintillating on the night's ceiling
And it warms me, deeply
