BURY THE FEAR

Dark days out of control, they've come like they've go
The river that never stop, falls to take me down
Once again, I have a goal, but I can't go forward
Frustration, confusion, it happens so many times

A time to laugh or a time to cry?
A time of suffering...
...or is it a fear?
I want to know it now!

Everything has an origin and everything has a consequence
Let this feeling wins on me and it's the end of the story
Nothing scares more than uncertainty
But I ask myself am I ... Am I a free man?

A time to laugh
A time of suffering...
...or is it a fear?
I want to know it now!

WE ALL DIE TO HAVE LIVE , NOT TO EXIST
I WANT TO BE PROUD OF WHAT I HAVE DONE
I FEAR TO BE JUDGE BY ALL MY KIND
SO THERE'S ONE THING TO DO , I HAVE TO BURY THE FEAR

I know it's tough, don't play her game
If you don't mind, you'll never know what's next
I hope you already know, she's your worst enemy
Ignorance is your best shot against this damned feeling

Dark days out of control, they've come like they've go
Frustration, confusion, it happens so many times

A time to laugh or a time to cry
A time of suffering...
A time of war a, a time of peace
A time for this and a time for that
A time to keep the faith alive
A time for nothingness
A time... Which one..?

BURY THE FEAR!!!

Embalming the Emotional

To abstain to open your mind
of what could disturb everyone
To presume everything right in the order,
You will lie just to spare someone?

To close yourself you create ... something nasty
This symbolic character ... arise from you
You commend without notice ...his destiny
To embalm the emotional : it's his quest

He fill your lies with pleasant scent
He dried up your feelings to conserves the gist
He feed himself with your emotions
Some of his preys are more fragiles one after one

To close yourself you create ... something nasty
This symbolic character ... arise from you
You commend without notice ...his destiny
To embalm the emotional : it's his quest

HE'S THE ONE WHO PULLS THE STRINGS
LIVING INSIDE TO DAMAGE THE MIND
IF IT HAS A NAME, WE WANT TO KNOW
BUT WHY DO I HAVE TO BE A SLAVE OF MYSELF ?

At each birth a certain death
At each event an isolation
At each question a lie
That's recipe for a macabre feast
with the best poison by this warlike artist

Some of preys are more fragile one after one
You will lie juste to spare someone!!!

HE'S THE ONE WHO PULLS THE STRINGS
LIVING INSIDE TO DAMAGE THE MIND
IF IT HAS A NAME, WE WANT TO KNOW
BUT WHY DO I HAVE TO BE A SLAVE OF MYSELF ?

ALONE IN DEPRIVATION

Addicted to a world of dreams, my feelings are my cell
I have to hold them to doesn't depend of them
I'm not ready to lose the reward of my work

Addicted to my will. my goals are my guides
But I'm too much human to understand my chances
To restrained myself I will ... but I'm ...

TOO PROUD TO ASK FOR HELP
I'M SINKING ALONE IN DEPRIVATION
(2x)

Tormented by my fears, I'll try to surround them
Little puppet you fear the hand, I need your support
I have to cut the strings to live mentally sane

TOO PROUD TO ASK FOR HELP
I'M SINKING ALONE IN DEPRIVATION
(2x)

Blackness of the darkness
Wrapping all around me
Blinded, can't see the exit
I need your help be quick!
(2x)

I have to cut my strings to live mentally sane

TOO PROUD TO ASK FOR HELP
I'M SINKING ALONE IN DEPRIVATION
(4x)

Stubborn Little Child

Hey, here I am living my own demise
Blinds, are my eyes, I don't use them to see
Cold, is my heart, no more feelings for me
Reckless, no matter what, I'll do what I want

BEWARE, DON'T PUSH ME
THE PRESSURE GETS HIGHER
THE WAY YOU TALK TO ME
WILL REVEALED MY TRUE SELF

You, backstabbers, I despise what you are
Run as fast as you can on the mindfield of my life

BEWARE, DON'T PUSH ME
THE PRESSURE GETS HIGHER
THE WAY YOU TALK TO ME
WILL REVEALED MY TRUE SELF

I try to please everyone
But they are never satisfy
No one lives for someone else
So what if I live the way I want

Who do you think you are
To teach me how to live
I play my part well as you
So don't never pretend I am not !!!

(Don't, Don't, Don't, Don't)
Don't preach over me
I'm a stubborn little child

Rise, it is time, let the new day begins
I will walk, straight forward to never turn my back away

BEWARE, DON'T PUSH ME
THE PRESSURE GETS HIGHER
THE WAY YOU TALK TO ME
WILL REVEALED MY TRUE SELF

(Don't, Don't, Don't, Don't)
Don't preach over me
I'm a stubborn little child

DREAM PASSENGER

A silent man on a field, thinking of what, we, human became
The slumber state shrouded his mind to float over a mystical land

In this land, there's no humans, there's no machines, there's no sins
In this land, there's no humans, there's no greed for POWER

Wandering where he don't belong, all the living are watching his soul
Nervous and anxious to know who he is, he's the bound between two worlds collided

Why does human are feared? Why destroy everything ?
Will we be tolerant? And accept that we're also weak ?

IN A WORLD UNTOUCHED BY FEAR
YOU CAN HEAR SOME PRAYERS
LISTEN TO THE MELODIES
CAUSE YOU'RE A DREAM PASSENGER

The dream shows him the beginning, it's like a travel to the past
Where he stand it's light and calm, but in his world, it's dark and insane

In this land, there's no humans, there's no machines, there's no sins
In this land, there's no humans, there's no greed for POWER

Why does human are feared? Why destroy everything ?
Will we be tolerant? And accept that we're also weak ?

IN A WORLD UNTOUCHED BY FEAR
YOU CAN HEAR SOME PRAYERS
LISTEN TO THE MELODIES
CAUSE YOU'RE A DREAM PASSENGER

Now he starts to realize, the sin that we commit,
the killing to conquer on our path, so the beauty soon begin to fall

In our land, no more humans, too much machines, too much sins
In our land, no more humans, and there is greed for power

Why does human are feared? I know the answer now !
It's time to go home! My mission: Dream Passenger

IN A WORLD UNTOUCHED BY FEAR
YOU CAN HEAR SOME PRAYERS
LISTEN TO THE MELODIES
CAUSE YOU'RE A DREAM PASSENGER

IN OUR WORLD DESTROYED BY FEAR
YOU WILL HEAR SOME PRAYERS
VANISHED IN THE AIR
THERE'S NO MORE DREAM PASSENGER

Secret Garden

In my head, there's a garden
Sometimes with flowers, sometimes with thorns
A lots of contrast in so much little space
But a few for my soul.

Childhood's memories
Some privates hidden tough
No ones knows, no one sees
The only ones who can is... me

Joyful or sad
The scheming garden upset by his secrets
No need to search, to find solutions
Look.....Look for yourself

There's one thing we can change
The future that will comes
But then, can we change
our own destiny?

WE ALL POSSESSED SECRET GARDEN
WE KEEP THEM FOR US
WE GROW WITH OUR SECRET GARDEN
EACH YEAR ANOTHER HARVEST

In my head, there's familiar faces
Some friendly ones, Some dangerous ones
Each one of them is a seed to plant
To look from the past to forge tomorrow

If we build our life
and accept our past experiences
We could make better choice
between two opposites ways

WE ALL POSSESSED SECRET GARDEN
WE KEEP THEM FOR US
WE GROW WITH OUR SECRET GARDEN
EACH YEAR ANOTHER HARVEST

In my head, there's a gardenthere's a garden and he's fine...

THE WARRIOR & THE SHADOW

There is some days
That you have to face an unpleasant situation
And in this case you wonder: is it common or serious?
To liberate the fear, you have to take your time and tell !

My mind is like a sky tormented by a storm
The wind grows to bash me in the air
And I don't know what to do anymore for me
So I scream my will for changes now !

I dream of a river that doesn't flow
Is this a way to stop time?

DON'T FORGET THAT TIME IS THE WARRIOR'S TOOL
DON'T FORGET THAT LIFE IS THE SHADOW OF DEATH

Don't isolate yourself instead to show
Something new to evolve in this world
You don't have to fear what's right or what is wrong
(Cause) you're a puppet boy lead by his strings

I dream of a river that doesn't flow
Is this a way to stop time?

DON'T FORGET THAT TIME IS THE WARRIOR'S TOOL
DON'T FORGET THAT LIFE IS THE SHADOW OF DEATH

I dream of a river that doesn't flow
Is this a way to stop time?

DON'T FORGET THAT TIME IS THE WARRIOR'S TOOL
DON'T FORGET THAT LIFE IS THE SHADOW OF DEATH

TIME & LIFE
ALRIGHT

ONE DAY

Walking in a valley, into the mist
There is no sun for me
I'm looking for an answer about destiny
My future depends only of myself

The way is darker night after night
The burden of my past is slowing my course

ONE DAY, WE CAME OUT OF NOWHERE
TO RETURN OUR SOUL IN A MYSTERIOUS PLACE

Looking all around me to find a friend
But no one's here, I'm all alone
I need someone to find my way
Together nobody will dethrone us

But when the other sleeps eternally
Slowly, I'm dying for eternity

ONE DAY, WE CAME OUT OF NOWHERE
TO RETURN OUR SOUL IN A MYSTERIOUS PLACE
ONE DAY, WE CAME TO START THE MARCH,
TO FACE THE TRUTH AND TO FADE AWAY

I'm lost again in my though, I fear reality
I don't belong in this place ,I need another world

And in this world I can find a place to call home
To be again with my clan, this clan DEAD and GONE

ONE DAY, WE CAME OUT OF NOWHERE
TO RETURN OUR SOUL IN A MYSTERIOUS PLACE
ONE DAY, WE CAME TO START THE MARCH,
TO FACE THE TRUTH AND TO FADE AWAY

My friends would help, if they're still alive
My world is doomed, I'm only a man
All I want is to be by their side
And wish for them to survive

HOLLOW GRIEF

I know a creature with a disease, he deserves a support to came back with us
To leave him alone, a good riddance? Are you a living waste or a living being?

He had a quest in his mind to save humanity, but when he's in trouble who can save him?
He thinks he's a super-hero, but we all have a limited time to live!
He creates a world, a shelter to hide, so dark that no one can find him
His world is imagery and fantasy, but why does he has to rest in a world that not exist?

Open your eyes and awake !

I AM ALONE IN A WORLD OF DARKNESS
THIS IS MY HOLLOW GRIEF
(2x)

He tries to forget what life gave him , someone special to him past away
He can't change the past ,to bring life again, he's sorry about that and he's ashamed
Everyone affected by his behavior gather to help him but he refuse
Believe that we are all his enemies, he tries to escape but he fails again

Open your eyes and awake !

I AM ALONE IN A WORLD OF DARKNESS
THIS IS MY HOLLOW GRIEF
(2x)

I know a creature with a disease , he deserves a support to came back with us
I trust him , he can succeed the defeat, reborn from his ashes and be with us again!

... and be with us again !

I AM ALONE IN A WORLD OF DARKNESS
THIS IS MY HOLLOW GRIEF
(2x)

Open your eyes and awake !
