Hold Fast 02:51
Sometimes I let myself Be taken by distress and despondencies I will not drift away Not now not here And even if we never perceive the cliffs Hold fast Hold fast And even if we never feel the breeze Hold fast Hold fast I will not hit the bottom As I’m not dead I will still be aware I will not hit the bottom As I’m not dead I will still be aware (And hold fast)

Here we go I have guts not to fear Of what’s in my head that tries to change My life, my mind and my purpose I will trust my senses And my forebodings Am I trying to provoke A process of dreaming Sleeping is seeing And dreaming my new faith People just want to know But they avoid understanding My memories always seem more beautiful And I crystalize my past I thought I could lock myself in And hide the truth (and hide the truth) And I try to keep in mind That I am a sinner and wrongful Knowing who I am Will be my ataraxia I feel I don’t want to Sleep in a fucking solace I can foil my head and finally trust my eyes Finally get my head out of the clouds Dreams are what I had refused to value I don’t belong to any of them I am a creature of will I am a seeker of what I really am I have guts not to care Of what’s in my head that tries to change I will trust my senses And my forebodings [x2]

If you have enough conscience Deny the fate All I would like to have All I would like to be I don’t want it to appear In an other way Than my hands, than my sweat Kneel and hope other than yourself An easier way, a wrong way (A path without pitfalls) Old men listen to a preacher and are Convinced not to believe in themselves Money crashing down the stone Poor mother coins for a healing wind All this will for gods of straw A consciousless line of people Falling from the cliff shrine Seek out for the gold Seek out for the greatness Bones to create an ornate shrine Ashes and drops to feed the gods All I would like to have All I would like to be I don’t want it to appear In an other way Than my hands, than my sweat In a world forged by tales and myths An endless circle A perfect play Ashes and drops To feed the gods Tear down the idols Melt the gold A new pattern of life For this age of wisdom I can believe in hope But I will host the confidence

Throw Away 03:57
Stand upright I have to seize it not to let it go away This opportunity to live free To escape But I feel it taking off This occasion slides me as fine sand between fingers (between fingers) I have to dare to fail Only those who dare to lose everything Will live a thriving life Not be afraid to shipwreck When the path is simple there is no threat. The dust is dissipated Do you feel the thrill? The loud became quiet & the stormy became chill Live and let live & tempt the fate Live and let live & throw it all away Presentiments don’t show up without reason My legs are already sinking The hourglass runs out Drops and pebbles float in the air Thunder bursts upon my skin And the sky will flare Live and let live & tempt the fate Let it throw away Before it’s too late Before the earth swallows your corpse Stand upright

It's time to leave Finally be myself I'll discard the rest As free as I was down yesterday No more duty, no more chore All these burdens are just Pieces of shit I was smiling with a dagger on the throat I let myself die with no will and no desire But i found out My own reason to live A loss of time I had chosen neither Vice nor virtue I chose not to choose But I killed myself to reborn as I had always wanted to be I betrayed the gift of my life It's time to leave Finally be myself I'll discard the rest As free as I was down yesterday Finally be myself I'll discard the rest I never knew what it's like to be okay I've rejected my own boring heaven I'd rather be in harsh reality And live now I've rejected my own boring heaven I'd rather be in harsh reality I swear to never relive those days I will not let time take its course Take its course

I am just feeding scavengers I am only a few remains I won’t let it go All these souls that built me… …and those that have caused my loss I cursed their souls Painless and valueless They will be pillars of my grave Go on, eat my flesh Let it choke you Crows and hyenas Let it turn your stomach Dogs and vultures Taste your own harm But I didn’t worry About my own life Their vigilance should not subside cause I’m suffering so I’m alive Even if he stumbles, A man on the edge of the death Is still alive (x2) Don’t beg me to move To prove you’re right My body’s not a burden It’s a detail Those who have dropped me Will dive with me I will not let them suffer Those who matter to me I will keep them away from me Because, Even if he shivers A man on the edge of the death Will still remember Will still love (LOVE)

I saw & I felt Make this affecting Make this real Reconsider these last hours Ups and downs Made us grow up They opened our eyes Question yourself! When we are lying Don’t drink my words When I am smiling Don’t try to see through my eyes I saw & I felt What can stir my heart And I can’t find it in a bed I can’t find it with anyone I thought I could force myself To make this relationship more than what it is All our expectations of us Lead only to a misconception No spark lights in me No bird sings on us This great charm would not be enough for me You’ll never actually understand What I am An empire in the sheets But a beggar in the heart Everything you brought me withers me away A man who loved A cursed man I understand you blame me But nothing tickles my knees Nothing in you reminds me of her Now you know That there is no lust in love

Break. I can hear a voice That’s howling my name Dividing myself like love was hate Making me dig up tearing nails & bring me to strain Burning my brain That can’t merge Forcing me to wince Prevents me since My tongue is attracted to the razor edge I’m holding my hands, I’m biting my lips & I’m thirsty of a balance Oh if I could leave Stuck in a demon’s jaw Disguised as my twin The wounds are staining the grins while ego is killing humility Why, the link is raw While the others seem so quiet So peaceful Denial breeds denial I’m trying to repulse The hell that’s in my head Common sense is becoming a fucking glitch Face the fierce Who wreak havoc Oh, the mind drifter is collapsing All endeavor is failing I can’t remember What was once The young sane Before I become a janus If you could pick up my pieces And get me closer to the brightness Give me peace in me What if I was wrong? I should accept my entire being The bastard and the brave Self acceptance is freeing up And even behind the storm and rain The sun will still rise, here. Will still rise, here.
