TURNED OUT TO BE BLACK

TURNED OUT TO BE BLACK
My love was pure and your ego misplaced,
So insecure now I see the real face
Leave me alone I won’t stay in the dark
I did my best but your heart turned out to be black
We have shared so many laughter, we have spared so many times
Now it’s too late to get along, I need a break to move on
We have travelled so far, at least in my minds
The road is not over, we won’t make it together
I needed a friend all you give me was pain
A little shoulder to cry, but yours were not down to let me do so or even a smile
My love was pure and your ego misplaced,
So insecure now I see the real face
Leave me alone I won’t stay in the dark
I did my best but your heart turned out to be black

SICK OF IT
Despite all my efforst to be serious
Anything I do make you just furious
I took the chance, the risk,
To expose you my past
And even, after that, we’re not gonna last
You used to love me, for being spontaneous
Now you’re telling me, it’s almost outrageous
I won’t be standing here
At least not for too long, no matter how you think I could be strong
And I’m sick of it
Take me as I am
And I’m sick of it
There won’t be any split
And I’m sick of it
Between the sides you love those you want just to quit
I’m just sick of it
VERSE 2
I refuse
To spread my legs
So you listen to me
From your mouth I heard those words : « charming, exquising and lovely »
I didn’t made that up
I sware it is the truth
And look where you’ve put me trough
All the troubles, all this struggle
All these curses keep running in circle
Refrain X2
Je ne parle pas dans cette chanson d’amour ou de désespoir
Mais plutôt d’une société que je vois plonger dans le noir
Tu me diras que c’est facile de se prendre pour Molière
Quand d’autres au seuil même de ma porte se dépêtrent dans la misère
Mais que puis-je y faire ?
Adhérer à un gouvernement qui se noie sous des réformes des amendements de faux semblants
On veut nous faire croire, que c’est normal de les jeter
Car comprenez bien messieurs mesdames ils sont nés du mauvais côté
Alors je continue, ma vie de bohème plutôt bien lotie
Je pris pour même si je sais, que cela ne changera pas leur vie
Certains décident
De rester debout dans paris la nuit, mais ceux là-haut n’en n’ont que faire et son bien au chaud dans leur lit
Ce teste n’est pas
Une incitation à la haine, ni le cri d’une parisienne qui en a marre et se déchaine mais juste un rappel
A la triste réalité on croit prôner des libertés mais sommes attachés à nos denrées
Car elles sont rares hein ?
Seulement que nous restera t’il quand nos richesses seront devenues d’un coup obsolètes et futiles
A l’heure de la gloire, des strass et des paillettes
Aujourd’hui pour quelques vierges on fait tonner les mitraillettes
Fini le temps
Où pour une quelconque querrelle c’eétait l’honneur et la fierté qui s’affrontaient en duel
Car aujourd’hui
Il suffit d’aller boire un cafe pour qu’un mec se dise c’est trop et décide de tout faire sauter alors cessons
De nous créer de faux problèmes et visons droit dans le cœur tous les combattants qui les sèment à coup de mots, d’apostrophes et de points virgules nous y arriverons je vous le jure à leur faire gober notre plume.
And I’m sick of it
Take me as I am
And I’m sick of it
There won’t be any split
And I’m sick of it
Between the sides you love those you want just to quit
I’m just sick of it

CAUSE I ( Album Edit )

CAUSE I
Going somewhere,
Exactly where I don’t know,
Just finding a place, where I belong to the flow
Taking your hand, and just see where it goes
Cause after the storm everything’s down on the floor
Cause I don’t know
If that’s the end of the road
Or just time to take it slow
And I’m not sure
That after everything that we’ve done
We can restart from zero
Oh oh oh
Sliding on the wave
At the same rhythm you and me
Pick it up a beat
That we can follow easily
One step at the time
Growing up together
Trying everyday to be a little bit better
Cause I don’t know
If that’s the end of the road
Or just time to take it slow
And I’m not sure
That after everything that we’ve done
We can restart from zero
Oh oh oh
Cause I don’t know
If that’s the end of the road
Or just time to take it slow
And I’m not sure
That after everything that we’ve done
We can restart from zero
Oh oh oh

KEEP YOU MINE

KEEP YOU MINE
I can feel close to mine
I can breathe with you right on time
I can climb mountains when you’re by my side
But all I can’t do, is to keep you mine
You and me, this could be, the only one, the only one reality
You and I, we must fly, as long as you see life as it should be
(instru)
I was dumb, I thought that maybe
you’d be free by staying with me
I have to escape, my own fantasy
You were never here, at least not really
You and me, this could be, the only one, the only one reality
You and I, we must fly, as long as you see life as it should be
You and me, this could be, the only one, the only one reality
You and I, we must fly, as long as you see life as it should be

INSANE
I do want to die tonight
Not because I’m sad and lonely
On the contrary I even love my life and I’m happy
It would seem strange and slightly paradoxical or maybe I am sick and violent when there’s no obstacle?
Yesterday I met this girl and that was exotic
Lively, like when you’re on drugs she put me on speed she’s my narcotic
Today the smile on my face is unavoidable
every time I see her I just think “oh my gosh” this is a miracle.
In my head in my head in my head
Can you hear the voices in my head?
In my head in my head in my head can you hear?
So I close my eyes breath slowly run into the maze
Of my minds so it could be easier this way
Come and look closer
Right inside my brain
So you’ll get why I’m going insane
But then I go back flying into my own interior
I stay the head out of the water but the voice in my head is just superior
I dig harder, faster better even deeper
Embrace my darkness and the next thing I know? I don’t recognize her
I’m trying to understand why those full are just buzzing around, humming around
I’m not ready for the next round
I think I’d be cooler for everyone not just for me
So you wouldn’t see the glint in my eyes that show you I’m not even here
So you wouldn’t tell that we’re several in my head
Or maybe you’ll get why I’m going insane. DAMN

WHY NOT

WHY NOT
Life is too short to make some mistakes
So you can just stand up or you can go away You’re completely lost it’s like in the desert You have no water and it could be better But now it’s time to take a turn around Now it is your choice to feel or not better
Flying over the rooftop, sleeping on the clouds (x2)
You were against the war but then you realized
You were against the world, but you can’t change the first act No you can’t change the fact that it’s done and classified
So try to go with it stop living in the past
But now it’s time to take a turn around
No it is your choice to feel or not better
Flying over the rooftop, sleeping on the clouds (x2)
Hope makes you stronger when you are a dreamer
But going further pushing harder can make you become bitter Already ? Ready, that’s how you have to be
If you want to be in charge of your own destiny
But now it’s time to take a turn around
No it is your choice to feel or not better
Flying over the rooftop, sleeping on the clouds (x2)
You only get what you earn right ? Sleeping on the clouds
Fly, fly , fly

DRIFT YOU AWAY

DRIFT YOU AWAY
Don’t waste your time, spare your breath
Take those with you, and go away
Don’t mess up with my minds, don’t try to interfere
Time has gone fast, there’s nothing left to share
I have to drift you on, bye, drift you away
Drift you on bye, you’ve been too long by my side
Drift you on bye, drift you way
Now you’re gone anyway
Don’t come again, no time to beg,
It’s only you who started this game
Don’t push me too hard you don’t want to see
What’s really hidden, right behind the scene
I have to drift you on, bye, drift you away
Drift you on bye, you’ve been too long by my side
Drift you on bye, drift you way
Now you’re gone anyway
Whisper in my ears, you are my fantasy
The best is yet to come, without you
I have to drift you on, bye, drift you away
Drift you on bye, you’ve been too long by my side
Drift you on bye, drift you way
Now you’re gone anyway

OPEN DOOR

OPEN DOOR
You’re an open door, a hallway to my heart
Because time has gone, and you’re still on my minds
No need to talk to see you through, no need to cry to feel you
I’m here looking at us and I know what we have is true
You’re probably not my only one, the woman who will stay by my side
But you’re at least someone special, a muse untouchable
A giant gate or a window to the future that we don’t know
You are an open door
Through the time over the weeks, my heart becomes yours
It’s there always beating, I’ve been happy with other ones
Don’t talk about teenage love, but more about passion
Adoration and devotion
You’re probably not my only one, the woman who will stay by my side
But you’re at least someone special, a muse untouchable
A giant gate or a window to the future that we don’t know
You are an open door
There’s a place and time, where you could be mine
And it won’t happen and I think it’s fine, as long as I can see
Love in your eyes, you are my open door
(instru)
You’re probably not my only one, the woman who will stay by my side
But you’re at least someone special, a muse untouchable
A giant gate or a window to the future that we don’t know
You are an open door

Hey Darling my name is Jodie,
What are you doing here so lately
It could be dangerous for a lady
But thanks god you found me,
Take a seat and drink a coffee,
I want to hear your true story.
I love your lips, I love your smile,
The way you’re speaking, the way you’re shining,
« Really ? You live in ?
That’s interesting. »
Refrain :
But would you be my sweet candy,
I’m sure you taste as jelly jelly,
You could be my sugar daddy
Oh would you be my sweet candy,
I want to lick all your body,
So please, let me going, in your delicacy…
(Delicacy, hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey)
I could tell (you) you’re beautiful,
Or that you embody the purity but I’m not a liar.
I don’t want your heart or your soul,
So come closer to me,
If you don’t see what I mean,
You will feel it
Refrain :
Cause i’d like you to be my sweet candy
Caress your legs, remove your suspenders
And chock it
While i enter in your abysse
Oh would you be my sweet candy
I’m sure you taste as jelly jelly.
You could be my sugar daddy

THE ONE

THE ONE
You’re the perfect one, but you can’t be mine
You are just the one, I would fight for
Because no one ever made me see the world
The way I see it through your eyes.
I could spend a lifetime starring at your face
Watching you waking up is so priceless
Would you take my hand, follow me till the end
We’ve lost so much time, now let’s go for,
Doing all the things we once said, if only we had known sooner
We can’t be sure that our lives would be brighter
But at least we try harder, but at least a little harder.
You’d be my queen I’d be your queen
I can’t hold it it’s on my skin, the savor of the favor
The perfume of the flavor that you made me when you opened your arms
The promise of the land where we never resign
Come onto me, come onto me, until the end
Come onto me, come onto me, I won’t stand

HAPPINESS
This is what you want, this is what you need
It’s hard to get it but, while persevering, a silent day
You will reach it. Everyone is looking for it, but so many times
It’s hiding, because sometimes you will cry
Sometimes you’ll be sad, but when you wake up
You’ll be so good, that you’ll have the sensation to levitate
to challenge the weightlessness will not be any more a problem
laws of gravity will be only inaptitude
Happiness, yeah your name is happiness, I try to catch you but I can’t
And we both know that you’re too fast for me
So I try, I try and try again. He told me accept it or go back to hell
So I tried as strong as I could, but it wasn’t enough and I came back in my torture
Happiness, yeah your name is happiness, I try to catch you but I can’t
And we both know that you’re too fast for me, so I try, I try
Happiness, yeah your name is happiness I try to catch you but I can’t
And we both know that you’re too fast for me
Sing it !
(Instru)
The sun is shining, I can feel it on my skin, I was misunderstood
but then I found you you and your bravery, your sensibility

REMEMBER YOU

REMEMBER YOU
Puzzled empty sick and lonely
That’s who I am sometimes that’s what I see
When I look in the mirror, right in front of me
Out of the despair you took from me
You came like a remedy, you have to show me the way
Despite where you have to stay
I remember the smiles that were typically yours
The look in your eyes that made us secure
I could have been her someday now that you’re gone
It can’t be true but I do remember you
Under my skin were the lyrics,
that only your fingers used to make me sing
life is useless without you, what will it take to push me through
with no melody, right back on my feet even if you are missing
you will show me the way, now it’s time to dry my tears
I remember the smiles that were typically yours
The look in your eyes that made us secure
I could have been her someday now that you’re gone
It can’t be true but I do remember you
I will love you forever because you were my fire,
Tenderness and joy that’s all that you were
Kindness makes me stronger between cold and fever
All it takes is to remember
I remember the smiles that were typically yours
The look in your eyes that made us secure
I could have been her one day now that you’re gone
It can’t be true but I do remember you
