MODERN LIVES
Introspect
Stop for a while
Take a deep breath
Enjoy the silence
Stay focused
Looking back
Where do we go?
The truth is we don’t care about what really matters
Refuse to be a slave
Refuse to alienate
We need to relearn
How to be happy with simple things
Contemplate
Be humble and share
We own the most valuable legacy
The only place where we can breathe
No one should ever forget
See it’s not ok...
How did the most useless things become critical?
Something’s wrong
Another trend
Another frame
Prisoners and chained
On our own volition

FLY OVER THE CLOUDS
We are chasing our dreams
We’re running inside our heads
Continuous race against time
Mad men blow up here and there
Violence lies anywhere
There is so-called human kind
And what if we stopped watching this empty TV?
What if we could laugh at everything again?
World of greed
The more I see, the more I can’t stand
Million starving children
You’ve got thousands followers
Born into such a lovely place
The promised land
Seems that we’re about to win the final race
Take my hand
And let’s fly over the clouds
The sun always shines up there
As we’re stuck down there, hell yeah
Religions still foster hate
Last crusade’s not over yet
Hey God, you doin’ fine?
Yeah man, trying not to cry
Self-centered, inquisitor, backbiting, sectarian
Looking for some uniqueness
What if we started believing what we can see?
What if flat earth’s society never existed?
World of speed
The more I breathe, the more I suffocate
Can we achieve happiness when ignorance is bliss?
Born into such a lovely place
We didn’t expect such crazyness
It’s my job to keep you safe
Hold onto me
Let’s fly over the clouds
Where the sun always shines
We are stuck down there
I won’t leave you
As long as we stay together
We’ll be one

The Biggest Waste

THE BIGGEST WASTE
I’ll tell a story so come and sit by my side
Open your ears wide
It’s a faded memory
A discarded dream
We destroyed everything
Play making mistakes
Oh, never mind who’s coming next
I remember all the pictures and colors
I stole with my eyes
It painted my soul
T’was the greatest masterpiece
My apologies
As we took everything
We made mistakes
And you have to pay them back then
You’re the new seeds
I hope you won’t screw it up once again

1994
7 seconds to put some adhesive on my headphones bracket
Rhomb’s friends all meet to celebrate another green day
What a useless idea, I won’t waste such a sublime day
Let’s go to Craig’s brother’s place instead
And play some old-school Ataris games
Here comes Randy sayin’ let’s get some cramps
Skating on that ramp
Do some melancholy in
What an undeclinable ambuscade
My slick shoes and I will be mocked by the satanic surfers crew
For sure when I will get strung out onto the floor
Better go to the seashore where the beach boys
Use to blink at girls ‘cuz ya know that “chicks dig it!”
Nada surf this time, I don’t have greedy guts enough to ride
Here comes Joey sayin’
Let’s wear some bigwigs and high hats at the party tonight
Within the lagwagon van there’s no way to be down
Screaming pulleys in the night, no effects style
Let’s be hi-standard once in our lifetime
We’re the kids
We’re the class of 1994
Here to have some fun
We are the descendents
We are the offsprings
We’re the class of ‘94

CHILL DOWN
Tearing off the bitumen, a screaming engine
He won’t be late for the week-end
The fever rises, a big rush of adrenaline
He feels the urge and disconnects his brain
Full power acceleration
You feel so strong but you’re not alone
Please consider you’re just a stupid prick
A king with no crown, a criminal clown
I say chill down fuckin’ scatterbrained redneck
At the office she’s always growling around
Even in public she’s not ashamed
Pissing everybody off, her frustration drips
She gets furious for nothing and she bleats
Shut your mouth, enough bullshit
You may feel angry but you’re not alone
Please consider you’re just a crazy freak
You’re so disrespectful, such a hypocrite
I say chill down you fuckin’ lunatic

DEEP SPACE
I wanna feel better right now
I wanna sail on a quiet sea night ship
Everything around me is so stirred
Sometimes I need your concern
But I can see there is no connection
An illusion
It’s only isolation
Emotions mess into a maze of questions
Raise your head and say hello to deep space
Am I losing faith ?
A satellite
I was told that friends don’t disappear
Moving away, swept aside in oblivion
I wanna feel guilty but I don’t
I wanna feel sorry and crawl back to you but I won’t
The same record is playing the same song
And I tried to get concerned
But there is no connection in return
Whatever I sing
I know the phone won’t ring
Comets come back
Maybe you’ll do so one night

My Worst Friend

MY WORST FRIEND
Sixteen years back in time
When I had that big crush on you
I became a voodoo doll
‘Cuz you cast a spell on me
Bewitched when my eyes
Saw your heady grim dancing curves
I’m trapped, wrapped within your perfumes
A slave swallowing your gray lies
Since you have entered my life
I just can’t stand alone
Since you have entered my mind
I love you as much as I hate you
This relationship isn’t leading us anywhere
Never tried to break it up, I swear
Still I know I should
Need you, want you every night
Can’t drink a single coffee without you
Summer Is the hardest time
But I’d love to spend my life with you
Since you have entered my life
I just can’t stand alone
Since you have entered my mind
I love you as much as I hate you
You’re my worst friend
Must stop this allegiance
But later on
Since you’re destroying my body, my lungs and my fucking life
Don’t know how we’d avoid strife
I will let you down someday
And put you in a bin

Father & Son

FATHER & SON
Sometimes you’re so far away
Without putting any distance
I know this is not your fault
Differences of perception
Frustration changes into isolation
I think about it everyday, anyway
Everytime you darken your lovely eyes
When you lock yourself in your mind
It’s a suffering to watch you go away
As this damn wall’s rising between us
As I’m losing you again
My mistakes can’t be erased
But my love is unconditional
I wanna help you translate this world
Now I see the irony
Empathy’s the answer to rejection
I think about it everyday, anyway
Everytime you darken your lovely eyes
When you lock yourself in your mind
It’s a relief to hold you in my arms
As this damn wall’s breaking between us
As father and son again

CLOSE THE BOX
Someone please turn the lights on
And help me getting out of this nightmare
I feel like it is gaining ground
I cannot stand to hear all the shit that you say
Flat earth, no moon landing
Same old story
Ignorance trumping science
Revisionist apostles
Pandemic impostors
Pick up any fake news pretending it’s the truth
Now close the box
Get out of my way
Close the box
You are a fucking disease
Knowledge’s often been crushed down
Fear spread by the obscurantist nights
Killing trees and shutting lights
Devotion and faith set fire to stakes
Preach, lie, frighten people
Same old story
Ignorance trumping science
Revisionist apostles
Pandemic impostors
Pick up any fake news pretending it’s the truth
Now close the box
Get out of my way
Close the box
You are a fucking disgrace
