Tracks



01. Lunacy

Enslaved by the thoughts within his head,
And lost into Oblivion.
Possessed by the soul of an ancient dead
Full of anger and full of hate.
Betrayed by his pain and his sadness,
But why on earth is he so blamed ?
Confined in a dark jail of madness,
I wonder if he will escape !

Watch your life !
Don't you think it's time to open your
Eyes, your mind ?
Escape this void before it leads you
To the knife !
Try to show that you've seen me, other-
Wise, you're blind !
Then, you shall be banished forever !

The demon in his head :
This body
Without spirit is
Mine ! This wan-
Dering soul will never escape !

Entwined in a huge vortex of grief,
I hope he will find Salvation !
Entombed in his own silence, and drif-
Ting on a sea of Confusion.

Watch your life !
Don't you think it's time to open your
Eyes, your mind ?
Escape this void before it leads you
To the knife !
Try to show that you've seen me, other-
Wise, you're blind !
Then, you shall be banished forever !

The demon in his head :
What's going on ?
He is my slave, but
Why doesn't he
Belong to me anymore ?

Something strange in the air:
A feeling of haze gets you.
I come from a forgotten age,
A dark and violent one.
From the grave, he(I) appear(s) once more
To take lonely souls away!
Maybe you will defeat me
But you will be haunted by my remembrances!
To the grave, he takes and throws
Lonely souls away!
Do you really think you can fight me?

It's a desperate fight
Between two minds, two wills.

Entwined in a huge vortex of grief,
Will he come of Lunacy ?
Entombed in his own silence, and drif-
Ting on the waves of a rough sea.

My chains are shattered
But I'm still sorrowful. (Open your eyes...)
Screams echo in my head,
I'll never be the same ! (Watch at, you're blind...)
Loneliness is my friend
Until the end, my death. (Open your mind...)
Will I find the key
Of my insanity ? (Insanity...)

02. Endless Agony

As I fall asleep, Appears my biggest fear : I am coming near the unseen frontier between my inner me And my reality. The beginning of a shape, A familiar landscape : I am in a forest Made of darkness, Where resounds a voice Calling me again :

Never fear your mind !
Escape human kind !

This nightmare is so real ! These things that I feel? I just cannot wake up from this world of lies. I have to get the way, it's stronger than me. " I'll give you Salvation ! ", the Voice is telling me.

Never fear your mind !
Escape human kind !

The Voice:
Come my dear,
Don't be afraid,
Forget your fear, ?? and your pain !
Dry your tears,
Hold in your hate,
The end is near. ?? I'm your fate !
Don't despair
And take my hand.
Every dream is a nightmare?? without end !
Wandering,
You won't survive.
Alone with your melancholy, ?? you will die !

Now, my soul is trapped. I won't wake up, never ! These demons in my head say now I'm one of them. And, as gradually I just begin to die, the tears are coming out From my lifeless body !

Never fear your mind !
Escape human kind !

03. Angels Cry

All I wish is to turn to dust !
All I've seen is hate in your eyes.
All I know is from your world,
You never trust that angels cry.

I still feel his dirty hands over me,
I still hear his voice crying after me,
Who could believe that an angel could be
The dead soul that still is inside of me ?

Doors are closed, Words have lied :
God is silent when children cry.
Mother's gone, father's dead,
Who could believe me ? My brother's dead !

Give me back what have been stolen from me,
Let me be what a child is meant to be,
Take away memories out of my head
And give me the childhood that I've never had !

04. Time' So Long

I won't cry for you, never !
I hate you more than ever !
(But) you live in my mind,
You scream through my cries,
You rise when I lie,
You smile when I die !

Time' so long !
Cry is wrong !
Time' so long !
Now, I'm alone.

I won't cry for you, never !
You left me all alone.
As I cry and call
I stumble and lie,
As I scream and fall
See me when I die !

Time' so long !
Cry is wrong !
Time' so long !
Now, I'm alone.

05. Around My World Part. I

Lost, and alone with myself into this world,
I don't want to believe that my life is so blasted !
I search my way through the darkness of my soul,
In this way, I will find my destiny !

Forget the past full of hatred and solitary,
Smile ! Look at the sky, here is your lucky star.
Hope you will survive, you aren't alone in this history,
Trust ! Open your eyes, let me guide all of your pain !
Live ! Forget the past full of hatred and solitary,
Smile ! Look at the sky, here is your lucky star.
Hope you will survive, you aren't alone in this history,
Trust ! Open your eyes, let me guide all of your pain !

06. Around My World Part. II

Now, all My World is broken.
What I am feeling inside
Is the fear of the unknown :
I'm alone in Our World !

May " The One Whose Kingdom Never Ends "
Hold you in the hollow of His Hand.
Then, our soul will melt again.
Hear my voice when I cry !
Hear my voice when I cry !
All My World is broken.
What I am feeling inside?
Hear my voice when I cry !
I'm alone in Our World?

07. Lost Time

Wounded spirits
Of the human kind,
Haunting the holy sites
Of a past time !
Whispering prayers,
In an ancient language,
They don't hear anymore
The march of the ages.

Looking around I can feel they were here:
The men coming from a lost time.
Lay(ing) on the ground, I can hear in the wind
Voices calling from a lost time.

They dry their tears,
As they see what became
The earth of ancestors
Where they had a name.
Now lonely souls
With only the memory,
We have in our blood
A part of their story.

Looking around I can feel they were here:
The men coming from a lost time.
Lay(ing) on the ground, I can hear in the wind
Voices calling from a lost time.

My body
Is here,
But my soul
Is lost in the maze of time.
I see
The future,
The past and the scenes of my life,
And I
Wonder why
My soul is torn between these times.

Wounded spirits
Of the human kind,
Haunting the holy sites
Of a past time !
Whispering prayers,
In an ancient language,
They don't hear anymore
The march of the ages.

Looking around I can feel they were here:
The men coming from a lost time.
Lay(ing) on the ground, I can hear in the wind
Voices calling from a lost time.

08. Sailormen

Hawling aft the sails and loosing the moorings,
From the port of Saint-Nazaire, we left in quest for Glory !
Month after month, we lost the dream of earth,
Surrounded by water and no rum anymore !

Bravery !
Searching after riches,
Glory !
Never fear the future.

We were navigating in the Indian Ocean.
After a long boring journey, the habit was on the ship,
(But) when the look-out screamed : " Enemy to starboard ! ",
Proud of our flag, we were ready to fight !

Bravery !
Searching after riches,
Glory !
Never fear the future.

Dead !
They were all dead !
They paid the treasure by giving their lives !
Dead !
All of them dead !
How will we tell them that all their sons died ?

Bravery !
Searching after riches,
Glory !
Never fear the future.

09. Eternity

Deep in my dream, I see the dusk of the world,
It's only ruin!
When Mankind will be just a memory,
(Mankind) Just another vanished species.
Completely mad, they were killed by their own sword.
(Completely mad) The end of evil!
And that led men to Eternity.
(Led men to Eternity) A remorseful and painful one!

All around me, desolation?
I am rambling, tortured !
All around me, devastation?
In this racked world.

Oh? Emptiness
All around me. In my sleep,
My nightmare. (vision of nightmare.)
Misery, I feel there.
In my dreams, (And I see)
I just see a metal tree ! (A metal tree.)

Oh, protinus irrupit venae peioris in aevum
Omne nefas?omne nefas.

Deep in my dream, I see the dusk of the world,
(Deep in my dream) The dust of your gold!
When Mankind will have lost its final fight.
(Mankind) Look at your Pandemonium!
Now, the time has come for a new dawn to rise !
(Time has come) Your dream is over!
Finally, Nature always regains its rights !
(Finally) She will neither hear you as you cry!
