1. ANALEPSIS

(Instrumental)


2. CONFESSION

Through me the way to mournful days
The ineluctable path to create
Redrawing the sequence, the outlines
To lead mankind beyond incompleteness

I’ve exceeded my expectations
I’ve extolled my determination
Refining the sentence, the whole page
I’ve lit the abyss of dark night and day

I read those words
The Ariadne’s thread
I weigh the whole relentless result

I turn the page
Red ink has been shed
Faded skins, vanishing shapes
Reopen life
With a binding untied
Old memories dressed in rags

Through me the everlasting pain
The unforgivable choices I’ve made
Pursuing stubbornly my instincts
To bring mankind beyond self-centeredness

I’ve exceeded my expectations
I’ve extolled my determination
Refining the sentence, the whole page
I’ve lit the abyss of dark night and day

I read those words
The Ariadne’s thread
I weigh the whole relentless result

I turn the page
Red ink has been shed
Faded skins, vanishing shapes
Reopen life
With a binding untied
Old memories dressed in rags

Through me the answers to the end
Here lies the ashes of our memories
Engraved on the heart of my sentences
I’ll read to sleep for all eternity

I’ve exceeded my expectations
… I’ve failed …
I’ve extolled my determination
… I’ve failed …
Refining the sentence, the whole page
I’ve lit the abyss of dark night and day

I read those words
The Ariadne’s thread
I weigh the whole relentless result

November the first
What a beautiful day to renounce
Abandon all hope
You who enter here,
In the book of Eliot.


3. AT THE GATE

Here, here is my open heart,
Here, come and read
My story, my innerside,
Inner child, Inner adolescent,
Inner man, Inner old man

Left behind
All the sunless sunrise
Waved around
All the dazzling sight of nights

The sunless sunrise
The dazzling sight of nights

Sketches of my ancient life come round and assail me
Now the hell is within sight
This is where it ends
This is where I quit
Now the hell is within sight

Mind-blowing
Scenes from my memories unveiled
Mind-blowing
Evanescent changing shapes
I want to walk away
And leave this world behind me
I slowly fade away
And turn my back on this life

Resignation
What a beautiful word to pronounce
Aloud and hushed voice
You who can hear me
Screaming out
November the first
What a beautiful day to renounce
Abandon all hope
You who enter here,
In the book of Eliot.

Mind-blowing
Scenes from my memories unveiled
Mind-blowing
Evanescent changing shapes
I want to walk away
And leave this world behind me
I slowly fade away
And turn my back on this life

Standing in front of hell’s door
I beg you
Please forgive me
Now the end is within sight
This where it ends
This where I quit


4. THE SLEEPLESS JOURNEY

I awake
From a sleepless journey
To the end of night and day

Left behind
All the sunless sunrises
Waved around
All the dazzling sight of nights

Overwhelmed
By an endless sunbelt
By a timeless wave of sand

Crushing life
It’s time to bid my goodbye
Now the hell is within sight

This is where it ends
This is where I quit

The seasons unchained


5. LANDSCAPE WITH THE FALL OF ICARUS

Shivering I’m on the brink of collapse
Shall I plunge into the depth ?
Accept to lose the control ?
Shall I ?
I do !

Journey through the unknown
Journey from which there is no return for me
There is no more prospect but this fall in
The deep green sea
I’ve burned my wings for having
Wanted to light up your souls
My soul

Wave after wave
Melted wax is carried away
Wave after wave
My feathers are drifted away
I’m dismembered

When Icarus fell in Bruegel’s picture
He didn’t change the colour of the sea
The colour of the sun
I’ve turned all into black
Blackened the light
Plunged everything into darkness
Altered the map of the structure
Reversed the order of all things

Dragged down by the flood
Atoning my faults
I disappear

Wave after wave
Melted wax is carried away
Wave after wave
My feathers are drifted away
I’m dismembered

When Icarus fell in Bruegel’s picture
He didn’t change the colour of the sea
The colour of the sun
I’ve turned all into black
Blackened the light
Plunged everything into darkness
Altered the map of the structure
Reversed the order of all things


6. THE UNWAVERINGS

Rage
The only
Feeling
Keeping us alive
Or just breathing
The anger
Which is
Knawing at us
Until our bones
And grazed our voices

Scream
Until aphonia
The last words
Which are
Making our heart beat
At unison
Until its sudden failure

We are the noisy reminders
We are the chosen ones
We are the fiery protesters
The unwavering ones

Our hopeless souls
Our boundless will soars
Until the end of our world
Our will be done
We will bring light to this dark cold silent night
We will enlighten the sky till we breathe our last

Unwavering
Blossoms
of freedom
Faded
Growing
On
Both
Sides
Of the World
And spreading in the air
The germs of a new dawn
No one will encroach on
Our leaves until the new fall

We are the noisy reminders
We are the chosen ones
We are the fiery protesters
The unwavering ones

Our hopeless souls
Our boundless will soars
Until the end of our world
Our will be done
But so many lives will be wiped out and sacrificed
They will enlighten the sky till we breathe our last

Hope
Of freedom
Will grow
And spread through
The world

Our hopeless souls
Our boundless will soars
Until the end of our world
Our will be done
We will bring light to this dark cold silent night
We will enlighten the sky till we breathe our last


7. ON COLLISION COURSE

My celestial night
You hold the power and strength
Which support my world
Your face’s reflected into
The incoming tide of my obsolescence
You are the total eclipse of the dark
My gloom captures your life
You unable me to seize the brightness
Of the day avoiding the biting sun
I release you, illuminate your days as you warm my shadows
I take my farewell of your light
I take my place beside the Stardust


8. UNLEASH THE HERMOD

I stand or fall by this lifetime
I walk straight to defy
The endless sun race
Rising up in the sky

Give me time to succeed
I swear an oath to ride out my emotions
I will bend over backwards to live
GMT94 tattoed on my skin

Unleash the fury crawling deep inside of me
Release it from me
Unchain the Hermod going round and round in me
It’s time to be what I’m meant to be

Give me strength to fullfill myself
The strength to set my law in motion
I will bend over backwards to win
GMT94 tattooed on my skin

One step, two steps
Ahead of my followers
I’m the new blind machine
I’m not alone
You are not alone
To force our domination
Let’s hit the road
GMT94 tattooed on our skin

Unleash the fury crawling deep inside of me
Release it from me
Unchain the Hermod going round and round in me
It’s time to be what I’m meant to be

… to be what I meant to be …
… To be what I meant to BE!

Before someone overtakes me
Hermod forms one body with me

Unleash the fury crawling deep inside of me

Our melted souls
Our boundless will soars
Until the end of our world
I release you

Unchain the Hermod going round and round in me
It’s time to be what I’m meant to be
To be what I’m meant to be


9. KINDERMORD

(A) fragile ray of light goes right through me
While I open my eyes
Mother’s face looks grave and gloomy
As an old candlelight
Withered morning-glory
If only I could have picked your soul
With this picture of you
I remember your smile
When you sang me this song

« As the men are falling down and down
We the children stand straight »

We are no longer sons
We are no longer daughters
We rise above all
And we stand above petty quarrels

I still see my poor brothers lying on a pool of blood
I can still hear the mothers-in-mourning weeping voices
Refusing to be comforted because they are no more
Who could give this vile order which out-Herods Herod?

« As the men are falling down and down
We the children stand straight »
The end of all things as a legacy?
We can’t believe our voices ascend for nothing
(We the children) We the sacrificed
(all in this together) We the «no future»
We will all get through this together
We will all stand and face the consequences

« As the men are falling down and down
We the children stand straight »
The end of all things as a legacy?
We can’t believe our voices ascend for nothing
(We the children) We the sacrificed
(all in this together) We the «no future»
We will all get through this together
We will all stand and face the consequences
