1. THE LONG NIGHT OF MADEMOISELLE VICTORINE LAFOURCADE

(Instrumental)


2. MEMENTO MORI

The smiles of the loveless
Will lie hidden below

It's so silent around
Dead red roses

Say my name and save me

It's so silent around
Dead red roses

Someone said "time is the cure for all wounds"
But these words won't fix her broken heart
"why can't I forget your present beside me ?"
...cause dead people can't write letters... (but I did)
But their stories are frightening in the darkness

Kisses. Cries. Steps. Ashes.

My eyes full of Gloria
Will watch over you full of tears


3. CLOSE TO ME, INSIDE MY HEART

That rain felt hard but I was dry anyway
I felt invincible I was not

I was looking for something inside
But I wasn't able to find it
Suddenly a flash
A light in the darkness of that night and my heart

Light

Looking for help but I don't need it
Cause I've found it yet
That's safe here but I'm dead inside

Slowly reborn and I'll realize everything

Away...

I'd want to say thank you
But you're so far away from me
I desire to hold you, to smell you
But distance is so big

Please come back once again
Cause I know you're with me

Your eyes are still watching to my life
Your eyes are still watching to my soul


4. FIRE ISN'T ALWAYS MEANT TO BURN

Somebody said nothing can stay,
And maybe this time you're right
Maybe we didn't survive the arson
But what would be a phoenix without her flames?
I can still feel it burn
But flowers will bloom from the ashes
And we will find the best hidden treasure inside your petals.

I need your hands again
And maybe what I'm living now is just a challenge
You let me find you when I felt the need to find you
And now you're searching inside me.
You look for my presence and with you I look for this presence into my own self
Even in times of the lacerating loneliness you will be there.
Cause I know I will find it.


5. THE LAST ONE

It's getting colder and colder
And I don't think any of us will survive this time
We're still too young and useless
Are you still afraid to die?

I'd like to have one more love letter in my street portfolio
But I fear there's no more time left for a last kiss-goodbye

He will know if I am right and I will sit next to him
Don't cry for me, you did the right thing

He has written my name on the shore
Waves are too weak to delete it

It will last forever

Maybe you can't read it this time
But I'm sure someday you will.



6. SEGUE

(Instrumental)


7. PRETTY GIRLS MAKE GRAVES

I can't forget

I can't forget the longest winter
I can't forget these drops on my shoulders

Your words have been my last caress
While I was lying in my velvet coffin

I wish I asked you to stay
I wish I asked you to promise it again

You asked me "could it last forever ?"

It's coming...

The switchblade of memories
Maybe won't be so sharpened someday

I would have given my life just to stay frozen in your arms

Now I'd just like to burn

I lost my wings during the longest winter

During the longest winter I lost my wings


8. OSLO

He's the only to know
How many flowers I picked for you
Did I ever tell you that dreams run fast ?

You're my guide and my anchor
As before I fall asleep forever
I'll scream in the darkness
And no one will listen

I'm very sorry, but...
I'm the poison in your champagne
