Valley of The Sun

Desert of human desire
The flesh is burning to red
My soul is on fire
And my body feels like death
Someday eyes will meet that day
Whispers of a name, of a place that no one knows
Wandering with hopes under that golden sun
I’ll meet you my friend, if I do grow old
I’ve walked for so long
Not knowing where i’m going
All my people have roamed on
This land of the beginning
No shadows as there is no darkness
All by myself, left alone
I’ve got to stay alive in this emptiness
But now that I know, I just have to go

Fast-Forward

Feels like I forgot something
As the clock keeps spinning
But I can't let my focus slip
Running faster, trying not to trip
Feel the weight of their stare
The pressure never feels fair
We learn always to aim higher
Even though there's nothing up there
Dissipate my confusion
Concentrate on my ambition
Brush aside all of my fears
And make my doubts disappear
Sold all of my dreams for fame
And broke down my hopes for shame
Fast-forward to the end of my life
Take no heed to what I desire
Set aside everything that's worth something
Flash-forward to the end of my life
One step closer to the finish line
Even though no one's cheering for me

The Mirror Ward
13:46

There's a familiar face staring at me
A reflection of pure melancholy
In a place where I keep waking up
Again and again and again
I hear the echoes of my fragile footsteps
I see a path amidst translucent walls
I hear my breathing reverberating everywhere
How did I even got here
I lash at the mirror ward
Where my nightmares keep haunting me
Shards of broken glass fall over me
And still another mirror stands before me
Can't find the entrance, can't find the exit
Not even my shadow to comfort me
Only a frail silhouette to keep me company
And all my fears are laughing at me
Are my thoughts even my own
Is my life really reduced to this
Stuck in a room, conceiving my doom
Alone and facing infinity
I lash at the mirror ward
Where my dreams cannot reach me
Shards of broken glass fall over me
And still another mirror stands before me
And the scene repeats... eternally

Ce Spectre
06:48
|
|||
|
Tant de réflexions, tant de spéculations
Tant de temps passé en contemplation
Pour n'en venir qu'à des élucubrations
J'ai beau examiner les répercussions
Tout prendre en délibération
Une surdose d'introspection
Incapable de provoquer la moindre péripétie
Renoncer à défier tous les interdits
J'émets un autre soupir indécis
Contraint de suivre, de s'exempter
Je ne peux que déambuler
À travers la réalité
Pourquoi ai-je donc si peur de toutes les conséquences
Effrayé par leur importance
Attiré par l'indifférence
Ce spectre me hante, scrute toutes mes pensées
Résorbe mon entière volonté
Égaré, désorienté, submergé de futilité
Je suis prisonnier de ma lucidité

Static Dreams
08:54

It used to be my shelter
It used to tell me fairytales
It used to keep my memories alive
It used to keep my faith in line
Once I saw all these colors
Once I felt all the pressure swept away
Once I remembered all their names
Once I lived through everything twice
Seems like it's been forever
Seems like it's repeating endlessly
Seems like all is shades of grey
Seems like all is done for nothing
Need a way to bring them back again
Need a way to feel them once again
Need a way to find my way
Need a way out
Now I only have static dreams
There's nothing left inside of me
All these strangers frozen in time
And all my thoughts are fleeing me
