WHY WAR FOR PEACE ?

I ‘ve plunged into a war
No matter how they are
My legion leads my war

I want to make you pay
For the sake of our name
Your defeat will remain

You want to run away
For what you do that day
It will be your decay

But now you have to fear
your clan will disappear
The taste of death is near

THE TIME ON EARTH TOO SMALL TO FIND AN ANSWER
BUT WHY DO WE HAVE TO FIGHT THE FIRE WITH FIRE?
WHY WAR FOR PEACE?

My mind is set to fight
I know you have no right
To kill so many lives

I ‘ve heard so many cries
Saw fire in the sky
I just want you to die

I know you hide somewhere
This is your worst nightmare
I know you ‘re in despair

I will haunt you
FOREVER MORE!!!

THE TIME ON EARTH TOO SMALL TO FIND AN ANSWER
BUT WHY DO WE HAVE TO FIGHT THE FIRE WITH FIRE?
WHY WAR FOR PEACE?

“This is the worst experience of my life
watching on the hill with the guardian of time on my side
of the massacre of my clan
right before my own eyes”

THE TIME ON EARTH TOO SMALL TO FIND AN ANSWER
BUT WHY DO WE HAVE TO FIGHT THE FIRE WITH FIRE?
WHY WAR FOR PEACE?

THESE DAYS ARE NOT SO FAR

Do you know the notion of clan
No you ‘re just a sheep
Follow the flock, limit yourself
of what is good and just fine

But tell me something
What's good, fine and normal?
Do you have the power
to pronounce the truth?

You wreck anything that don't fit
Me, my clan and the others
The stream is so good
It drowns you, blinds you and takes you away

You renounce to yourself
And after times, you forgot what you ‘ve loved
You ‘re a fake character
A puppet is not even at your degree

NOW YOU TURN YOUR BACK AGAINST THEM
YOU ‘VE DROWN AND NOT THEM
DON ‘T BE AFRAID, THEIR TIME WILL COMES
THESE DAYS ARE NOT SO FAR

Me, the ugly, the unusual being
I'm here to get you out of your lie
Of your world of hypocrisy
You' ll see that you' re wrong

We' re all the same from the same planet
We just think differently
We don' t hide yourself, we scream will
We will give our GODDAMN life for our clan

NOW YOU TURN YOUR BACK AGAINST THEM
YOU ‘VE DROWN AND NOT THEM
DON ‘T BE AFRAID, THEIR TIME WILL COMES
THESE DAYS ARE NOT SO FAR

AGAINST EMPTINESS

Soon in the morning , I wake up all alone, nobody to share my day
And I am just an ordinary man who wants to be recognized
When I look my fate inside of me , I see more than I deserve
One man , one will , one DREAM, can't give up Now! Or it will be the end

I' m in a path, darker than the night
When you' re a jack, you can't be a king
All I want : is to have their sight
But with that wish, will I be please

The little jacks became the kings of their own destiny
Only when they will accept the fact that we are just little pawns

I' m in a path, darker than the night
When you' re a jack, you can't be a king
All I want is to have their sight
But with that wish, will I be please cause...

...I AM A MAN I DON'T WANT TO BECOME A STATUE
BUT THE UNIVERSE ONLY BOWS BEFORE THEM

EMPTINESS : Pleasure lost in time
LONELINESS : Force taken by the one
WEAKNESS : Fear against the unknown one

I' m in a path, darker than the night
When you' re a jack, you can't be a king
All I want is to have their sight
But with that wish, will I be please cause...

...I AM A MAN I DON'T WANT TO BECOME A STATUE ,
BUT THE UNIVERSE ONLY BOWS BEFORE THEM

The little jacks became the kings of their own destiny
Only when they will accept the fact that we are just little pawns

TO PAINT REALITY

When you think about peace, don' t forget about war
The abuse of a master push to react hardly
You don't realize that it's worst than your nightmare
You fear you'll disappear, instead the ones you dear

If you want to make a trial to the devil
Don't take your witness in heaven to play hard
For now, there is only one question to ask:
“Is it too soon to rebuilt or too late to repent?

We're not invincible for now and anymore
Closing our eyes on won't let you forget this
Melting colors on it to create your painting
So is that what you want? TO PAINT REALITY?

Do we have to pay for past mistakes?
Our land is filled with smiling ghost
They stole their lives for enslaving us
Our though will DIE along smiling GHOST!

Don't dare to escape it
OUR FREEDOM IS JUST AN ILLUSION !

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

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

SADISTIC INSTINCT

A primal instinct, a return to the basics
To exert himself, he must look and learn
Hunting his prey for a bestial harvest
The art of his act will become his creation

HUMAN SADISM, MENTAL DISEASE ,ANIMAL INSTINCT
GOOD OR EVIL ,THE MAN IS GONE, SADISTIC INSTINCT

For him it's creation, intern satisfaction
Releasing his demon, extern damnation
Elected to play God? Success deadly sin
A divine killing quest or just an insane move?

HUMAN SADISM, MENTAL DISEASE ,ANIMAL INSTINCT
GOOD OR EVIL ,THE MAN IS GONE, SADISTIC INSTINCT

“The voice inside me , teach me how to kill differently on each attack”
“They will suffer, like I always suffer”
“Orgasmic is the taste of death!”

He's starting again to become an icon
Rebirth of the shepherd or the birth of the bastard?
Hated for the dead, but loved for the tales
Judges for his crowning to live in our dreams eternally !

HUMAN SADISM, MENTAL DISEASE ,ANIMAL INSTINCT
GOOD OR EVIL ,THE MAN IS GONE, SADISTIC INSTINCT

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)

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 !

CHAMBER OF SORROW

How many years passed since? - Too much to tell
How many times did I cry? - Not enough
But now where are you?
Why did you left me?
Is that you have to
or that I deserve it?

Sometimes I think I saw you
but it was someone else
Are you still watching me?
Cause I need you to guide me through!

Nothing comes to mind
but I'll never forget you
Thinking of black notion all day
living with past all the way

Now that you ‘re gone your chamber is emptier than before
When I enter in, all the memories returns to me suddenly !

NOW, NOW THAT YOU'RE GONE
I HAVE TO CONTINUE TO DREAM
SO DON'T BE SAD
IF I TRY TO LIVE OVER MY SORROW

Why live to dream infinitely?
If that nothing is real anymore
It's not a dream,
it's a nightmare !

Questioning myself why
Every time I stand at your grave
Why did you died for me?
Cause I'm not dead for you!!?

Now that you ‘re gone your chamber is emptier than before
When I enter in, all the memories returns to me suddenly !

NOW, NOW THAT YOU'RE GONE
I HAVE TO CONTINUE TO DREAM
SO DON'T BE SAD
IF I TRY TO LIVE OVER MY SORROW
