Talk to me when I’m not here Keep looping deep inside There is nothing else to say Don’t mind if I get out I’m delusional I’ve never known, I’ve never known Stuck within a power fence The horse is running wild Driving in the valley Where the waves are staying calm Am I delusional I’ve never known, I’ve never known With a view, it’s so much better Smoothing all the time This cloud has no name If I stab a ghost, is it a crime ? I’m delusional I’ve never known I’ve never known

Septivore 04:43
The wind is rough And you feel cold You teach me something  I already know : An alligator’s in the alley Don’t think about Tomorrow Find a lighthouse To contain the overflow Mousy sun Take your time Pack my things To take a turn Talk is cheap You will meet someone to believe Adrift across  The ocean Made you feel like There is no one to deceive A bee is on your cotton candy Your body’s still Waiting for  A trigger or Something to perceive Monsoon rain Shadow pain The day was dark  Angel shark ? A question mark Enlight all the tensions to relieve Close the door Luscious lime Unveil your Subtle charms You’ll be gone Brand new memories ready to conceive But all trees Have to die Men of moss They will find All alone You might set new targets to achieve An alligator is in the alley A bee’s on your cotton candy

They never speak, they never leave the house although they’re gone A lifetime to get separated, fond of living on Contradictions Buildings tend to fall when they reach a certain point of height I don’t know what true love is but I seek it all the time Contradictions On my way in, on your way out You like to talk, saying you’re shy
 Sleep on the floor, shelve your nature
 And always type with my monkey fingers 
I like to hide my desires
 And my penchant for odd numbers
 Nothing I see, I’m getting stoned
 I don’t want to talk, you get on the phone How can I say if the dog is sleeping ? 
I tell you my truth, but you know I’m lying
 Your blood is cold, you’re losing patience 
Release my hand, increase the tension
 My eyes hurt so I keep them closed 
Keep a secret everyone knows
 You disagree, I suffer like you Unable to see, you suffer like me

Tell me to let him out The swell has got the anima Tell me to let him out Mon seul ami c’est toi là bas

Valley 06:03
Meet me, we’ll take a walk in the valley It’s raining twice a year Help me understand How long I’ve been stuck here And push me across your solar system Crash on empty islands My God has His own soul And He always forgives me Let my truck fall in the desert As if we had always been On the brink of gravity And disaster and loss Staring at shooting satellites Spinning a million times Above your glassy eyes I’m not sure she got it I don’t even know if this is real Just be there by tomorrow Not a single secret to reveal That I don’t already know of You don’t have to tell me how you feel There’s a black cloud above you Desperately trying to conceal Soon you’ll let it go Lie on a bed of stars Shining on endless nights Demons are haunting My dreams as I sleep Scary face fading Ghosts are dancing Dead tree is blooming My happiness is real

Nemo 04:27
Pole of inaccessibility Is where all the mermaids come to me To Hades, they sang their melody They took it back to a world beneath Hole of inexorability The stone is alive in this dead city Try to save some fading memory, L.A. Cooked below the midnight sun I know I’m not the only one To ramble on the endless sea Across a lifelong reverie After all is said and done My freedom’s always overrun A call of untranquility A safe to which I lost the key Pole of inaccessibility to L.A.

Light falling Sensation Completing The track i’m losing Ultimately Forget the stories :  I keep drawing New territories So I wonder What’s life for you The place you live How do you do ? Some liquid love We were swimming inside Surely not above The cloudy sky So do I wait for you to forgive me ?  It’s not everything I like it when you draw those lines of me,  Meant quite something The clock is ticking The coin is flipping I guess the story Is never ending But the coin  Was not mine You were blinded by  Its glossy shine Six is coming Get something to drink Misinterpreting  You knew what I mean Conceding All over Misreading Hungover A long time to decide that what I see is not everything The fortune doesn’t give you more than me, since i’ve got the dream

Blue 03:28
The seamstress and the ironmonger It’s been so long that I got to know Every corner on the avenue At dusk I can’t keep my eyes open Glowing wind blows from the desert We’d love to leave without further ado Beyond the border, the bush is burning Ashes taint the hull in grey Smoke is thick, red light keeps breaking through Muezzin calls at 5 past 9 The police sirens moan and whine Our ride is always ready « tomorrow » It’s about time to hit the waves, I’ll come for you Out of my mind, you popped up right out of the blue Blurry outline, our bodies mix, I’m coming through One day romance, you disappeared out in the blue Barbaros looks from his castle A swimming pool of plastic bags It feels like someone put a spell on you How long till we set the sails ? Copper dust tingles my skin And every night seems like a deja vu It’s about time to hit the waves, I’ll come for you Out of my mind, you popped up right out of the blue Blurry outline, our bodies mix, I’m coming through One day romance, you disappeared out in the blue

Ariane 03:30
I don’t how to tell you something You came around me and it felt quite alright tonight Thin line between talk and silence   This twinkle held a captivating insight this time   In the air, warm thoughts are floating A crack in the soil, our bodies ready to ignite No one knows if we’re ever touching  No deal’s done, is this fire going to set alight ?
