ANTIDOTE FOR NO-UTOPIANS Stop crashing I’m the tree that retains your fall Stop thinking I’m the book that reveals your words Stop drinking I’m the water purifying your veins Stop dreaming of … I’m so serious All day long I wipe you away like chalk on a blackboard And all day long Your precious thoughts pile up into mud And all day now There’s nothing more to look at Through your empty eyes All day now As mute as a mannequin Calm and subdued All day long I wipe you away like chalk on a blackboard And all day long Your precious thoughts pile up into mud All day now There’s nothing more to look at Through your empty eyes All day now This is now what you’re made of : A light whisper scattered in the storm I am on my own On my own Stop Let’s shout It’s better, as ever Shout Stop whispering Shout It’s better, as ever Let’s try it for ourselves Shout It’s better, as ever Shout! Stop whispering Shout It’s better, as ever Be proud of this glorious day

Insomniac 03:41
INSOMNIAC You're so fair Spreading every word Like a sledgehammer Over my pillow You're so cruel Bells keep ringing Growing tired of day Checking on my brain Checking on my soul Checking on my body Famous sleep There's no end her Like a stone I lie down bravely Lonesome for reasons I'm lost for... Lost for horizons My thoughts go dim Where am I ? For long, The moon put a hand on my forehead With caution, 'til I forget the name I bear She says : Follow! Follow me anywhere, further than the morning after sleep Follow Follow me anywhere, further than the morning after ghosts. Say it Say it everywhere : You turn into the son of the moon Say it Say it everywhere : You, mending thanks to me Over, ever cheating dream in me There's no way out of the mind Over, ever skepticism of me No way out, no way out

THE LAND OF MYSTERY This is a land of mystery This is a ground that swallows the body of saints Back to back, I whisper : love cannot come here Where we lie Blind souls Cry again Like a sorry mother Heads up, have you seen ? You still don’t sleep Stand up and bring the dead to life You don’t care, so let’s try here While I have your head on my knees, now You don’t care, so let’s try here To go up without fear To go up without tears This is a land of mystery This is a ground that swallows the body of saints Back to back, I whisper : love cannot come here Stare again Dream again Twist your head around Trust again Smell again You must tell what you lack Cry again Blind soul Like a sorry mother Heads up, have you seen ? You still don’t sleep ! Stand up and bring the dead to life Heads up, have you seen ? You still don’t sleep ! Stand up and bring the dead to life You don’t care, so let’s try here While I have your head on my knees, now You don’t care, so let’s try here To go up without fear On your own, over and over and … Heads up, have you seen ? You still don’t sleep ! Stand up and bring the dead to life Cry again Trust again Bring our souls back to life

MYSTICAL BRIDE The last time So I can pray for the last time Yes I can hope for the last time I want to pray for life I try … The last time So I can pray for the last time Yes I can hope for the last time But I can’t stand up to the lie Yet I try I am flying high White and shy Mystical tiny bride So I take a ride Flying high White and shy May I enter your bible ? I try and get around, The last time So I can pray for the last time Yes I can hope for the last time I want to pray for life I try … The last time So I can pray for the last time Yes I can hope for the last time But I can’t stand up to the lie Yet I try So I take a ride Flying high White and shy May I enter your bible ? I try and get around, get around, get around Light rays on my smooth veil What has come over me ?

SMILING AT THE STARS White hair as a diamond Skin wrinkled like a scroll Everything is cold inside Surround me with a bandage But store my heart Everything is contained inside It might be My fine end I think It might be The right way to die White hair as a diamond Skin wrinkled like a scroll Everything is contained inside You’re crying I’m smiling, then … You’re crying I’m smiling at the stars It might be My fine end I think It might be The right way to die

Crying soul 04:13
CRYING SOUL I’m like a stone in a frozen snowfield Grey face in perfect cold I’m like a leaf clinging to its tree How could I be strong ? Crying soul, daddy, I’m a Crying soul. Crying soul, daddy It’s time, time to tell what’s wrong I’m like a bear peering from the old door Aware of an absence I’m like some black roses waiting for the whiteness There’s no sense !
