Kneeling //
Step inside and feel it grow
Instead of running around,
We’d better kneel before what might be called a miracle
So fragile is the lesser of fires…
My prayer : Give little things a chance to grow…
We stand above a magic that
We can not feel, we, shallow
we’d better kneel down and try to get in…
Instead we stand on our feet
Show we are strong, but we’re sheep
All in need of some rules to follow
And we listen to leaders, And we listen to priests
When we could use our fire To guide us in the mist
But we are in the blizzard, Our third eye really closed
We can’t feed the fire, Or dance with happy ghosts
So take your time and let it grow
For now we all sound hollow
Together, let’s enter the unknown
Slow down! Our soul drowns!
Have we watered the dry tree? We should have…
We should have knelt down before the ruins
Instead we stand on our feet
Believe we’re strong, We are sheep,
who think faith is some God to swallow…
We don’t need a preacher, We don’t need a priest
We could use our fire, To guide us in the mist
‘Cause we are all wizards, A third eye to be found
We could see much further, and fly beyond the bounds
“In god we trust”, the dollar… And so this bloody mess
Can’t you look for the fire, The ghost within your flesh?
We miss the point, We miss it all
Something divine Has made us grow
To have it back I’m kneeling down
This is my prayer, This is my song
We miss the point, We miss it all
Our inner flame, Some call it soul
Wish it can burn And fill our veins
This is my prayer : May we shine again
Crick In The Neck //
Hello dawn, again
You wake me where I lay
In the air I smell
The Sweet perfume of a shiny day
See the pictures crumbling in your hand now
Listen to the wind that’s blowing over
Everything that stood on the old road
Avoid looking back cause you’re on your own now
When about to fall in eternity
Just like in a fight, round seventy
All that’s left of us is a little piece of flesh and memories
Hear the laughs outside
Is it some kids at play ?
In my room they came
And had a dance around the bed
From a distant hill you came here running
Now you walk with a limp, giant made of time
Shrinking all along till you’re only skin on bones
Avoid looking back cause it’s gonna hurt you so…
When about to fall in eternity
Defeated by God the almighty
You, old man, have a thought in the present tense. :
“Now I’m the little child, the tree that grows, each drop in the rain, The leaf that’s falling down…”
Last Run //
We re so tired to face it all
Assailed all the way
New & old pains they unite in one scar
Our quest will never end
But We re made for this run
In chains you know we’d decay
We chose this fate
or has it chosen us ?
We stand and fight in a land
Where all our fathers stood before
We sail in company of ghosts
And now what we can call our home
Are fields that run so far eyes can’t see
We ‘ve always hunted horizons,
We look for the winds ‘secret nest,
We’ll forever stand as one
when They speak in a blustery way
They ve said their names in a breath
And we are fighting hurricanes
We take their blast as a kiss
And we re becoming intimate
(we met…)
We hold tight, our faith is all
Assaulted all the way
Nights & days they fade as one
Beneath stars
We re on the path again
We walk in the land
That never ends
A kingdom of sand
That don’t have no name
We agree the cause and proudly Move ahead
And so all of us stand
We ‘ve always hunted horizons
We’ll find where winds have their rest
We’ll forever stand as one
when They speak in a blustery way
We came to stir and awake
Old voices have a lot to say
A thousand winds in the nest
Now we are meeting our own fate
This odyssey… This odyssey… Our odyssey…
There is no coming back !
This odyssey… Our odyssey… Just one will stay
To say how it was in a tale :
“Once upon a time in a land without a name…
Once upon a time… We were walking like we re damned
Brothers & Sisters united in a quest
Walking together to the secret nest
Once upon a time in a land without a name…
A land where the wind blows and it whispers the secret
A long long time ago and really far away,
Or maybe is it now and here where You stand ?”
Cause here where you stand
The Fight is the same
Inside your own land
A wind calls your name
You’re made to meet this wind
And stand
Have you heard of the last band ?
The one who married the wind at the end
Have you walked your secret land
To reach the place where everything ends
Will you face your own wind and say “Just take me there,
Please lead me where
I will vanish and be born again !”

Studio Session 2011
The Outside //
Here inside… the silence… the darkness… a path to the outside
There in light… so peaceful… there outside… no pressure no more…
Here nowhere you hollowed your own home now follow
Your way to the outside you stand on the threshold
Not alone to sink…
A lot to feel this pain… this pressure …
We badly summon help : need wings !
Open a window we choke here, we ll break this dam !
We’ll break it !
Hold on ! get rid of chains !
You’ve waited patiently a wonder
But within four walls you ll be your own saviour
Begin an hurly-burly, strong and heavy
Be your own hurricane !
Heard the sound of this ?
It was like a desperate call in the mist
Lost on a mute island a man yells “ i am” then
Booms a tempest deep from a chest,
To talk a birth
In my opinion, no, silence isn’t golden
So when the silence’s back, in a fit of pique, all the children say their names
Because the silence’s black, so we re losing our sight,
Colour the walls in white, any noise is light
Before the silence’s back…
Within a chip of space where the winds have by chance
Blown on ground
And dawn created time
We moved our tongue to beg words
Loud and uneven, we sent our soul out
Loud and uneven, we sent our soul in a chant
Well now come out and say
These little things that’s so hard to say
Like the wind that blows all around
And if the silence’s back, don’t despair and fight, like the children yell your name
Dirty Old Snake //
Here comes the dangerous one again
Here moves the quicker liar in the sand :
“Here i crawl again, ready to uncoil endlessly, you little mouse look so pretty,
it smells like you’re afraid of me…” you’re so right to be !
Under this sway
When it stares with these eyes and hisses words
It always begins with a lie - it will always end in a cry
We spill our tears all over the world
This is something wet and cold, it is ready to uncoil
It just aint the one that it seems
It’s just a shadow - it’s just a sham
Here crawls the dangerous one
There moves the dirty one
It comes and knows when you need it so
It crawls and speaks and pretends to love you now
Can you hear it saying now :
« I guess you’re in the deepest trouble
You shrivel up , you shrink a lot, you never act right
Now get born ! join me ! forget about all !
You shrivel up, you shriek a lot, begin to act right : just come…
With me you’ll have a cause, with me you’ll free your soul
Unleash your soul ! unleash your soul ! »
Under this sway
When it stares with these eyes and hisses words
It always begins with a lie - it will always end in a cry
We spill our tears all over the world
For centuries it fed on us
Nothing is more dangerous
It just aint the one that it seems
It’s just a shadow
This is our way
Since we live with the lie
With our wet eyes
We’ve always waited for a light that would come on us from a height
We’ll spill our blood all over the world
No end and no beginning
All the time it sheds its skin
It just aint the one that it seems
It’s just a shadow - it’s just a sham
