EXTRA-LIFE
Looking for a solution to extend the term of my life.
Hoping for an invention that would give a chance to me.
Ready for an experience to send me far away from now.
Dreaming of an existence beyond the limits of time.
I'd need an extra-life to achieve my goals…
Give me a reason to die when I still have songs to sing.
Find me a reservation on a ship through space and time.
I'd need an extra-life to achieve my goals…
I wanna sing forever
I wanna play guitar for centuries...
THE MESSAGE
Bad behaviours, all around me
should I step in or let it be ? Should I engage my energy
for a cause which isn't mine ?
Should I keep on watching tv
when all I see is misery ?
Find solutions, begin action,
travel the world to heal people. Or grow my skills as an artist to give the world some meaning...
Should I keep on watching the news when I already have the blues ?
The power of creation prevails in the civilization I belong to !
There is not enough of a life time to save the world.
All we can do from where we are is be creative, be civilized…
The power of creation prevails in the civilization I belong to !
In a civilized mind lies the duty of giving art a major place.
There is not enough of a life time to save the world.
All we can do from where we are is be creative,
All we can do… from where we are… is a message to all.
REVIVAL
Everywhere, in the streets, in the fields, even in the wind...
I can feel it coming, we will be overwhelmed.
Like a flood, like a storm, very soon you'll hear…
we've gone beyond the limits, all the signals are red.
a wave, an eternal wave… comin' on us to clean the place.
Everywhere, in the streets, in the fields, even in the wind...
I can feel it coming, we will be overwhelmed.
Like a flood, like a storm, very soon you'll hear…
we've gone beyond the limits, and all the signals are red.
a wave, an eternal wave… a wave, like an eternal truth
coming our way to heal the planet and make us change.
Eternal wave… Like an eternal truth, coming.
Eternal wave… Like an eternal answer, coming our way.
Like a flood, like a storm, very soon you'll hear…
We're on our way to another time, a new era turning red into green.
Come the wave ! Come the wave….
Oh, all the world will be set for a new start.
Let the flow come to you...
Let the flow, we will be overwhelmed, overwhelmed, like a flood, like a storm...
Oh, all the world will be set for a new start.
We cannot stop the cycles of nature…
Set yourself for a new start, set yourself, you'll be ready, you'll be ready, you oughta be... ready !
LIGHTS IN THE DARK
I woke up from a nap and all my place was plunged into darkness.
A winter afternoon just needs a dream to turn a day into night...
But I was surrounded by all the tiny lights of my modern electronic, musical, artistic life !
Computer lights and my pedalboard blinking leds, (Yeah I didn't turn it off)
my amp on standby and outside all the windows (of a city at night).
I was surrounded by all the tiny lights of my modern electronic, musical, creative life !
These lights in the dark
are what I need to feel alive.
These lights in the dark
we all need our lights in the dark.
Lights in the dark, these lights in the dark…
There is another way (why do we keep on running)
We should be slowing down (that's what nature wants)
Why don't we stabilize (eternal growth is madness)
We have to settle down (and give ourselves a chance)
Ce n'est pas faute de crier gare.
Ce n'est pas faute de vouloir y croire. À qui la faute ?
À l'animal qui nous dévore.
À l'animal qui nous dévore.
It's like being on a train (don't forget the speed limit)
or like being on a plane (it cannot fly too high)
It's not like we're on a race (no record has to be hit)
Let's take a peaceful walk (let everyone enjoy)
Ce n'est pas faute de crier gare.
Ce n'est pas faute de vouloir y croire. À qui la faute ?
À l'animal qui nous dévore.
À l'animal qui nous dévore.
I've got all I need so, why would I take more ?
Don't buy what you don't need, and don't waste no more
I've got all I need so, why would I want more ?
Don't buy what you don't need, and don't waste no more
There is another way (eternal growth is madness)
Let's take a peaceful walk (we shouldn't run so fast)
Ce n'est pas faute de crier gare.
Ce n'est pas faute de vouloir y croire. À qui la faute ?
À l'animal qui nous dévore.
À l'animal qui nous dévore.
I've got all I need so, why would I take more ?
Don't buy what you don't need, and don't waste no more
I've got all I need so, why would I want more ?
Don't buy what you don't need, and don't waste no more...
RUN AWAY
I got lost in this town…
City where I grew up !
What happened here ?
Wandering like an immigrant
looking for friendly faces
But I feel like invisible,
are people blind and deaf ?
I'm all alone.
Familiar with the names
of the streets and places
but my landmarks are all gone
should I go left or right ?
go left or right ?
Turning on Joy boulevard, heading to Pride avenue, walking on Ambition road, along Confidence highway, on Desire boulevard, I should now be on Love street, but I don't know where I stand…
Loneliness alley, and Boredom dead-end… Never been there !
I've got to run away, run away of this place.
I've got to run away, a way out of my mind.
The road signs at the corner
are pointing to nowhere
Should I stay here ?
And the walls, they look higher,
windows give no reflection
of who I am...
Lookin' all around, lookin' all around, all around the place.
Lookin' all around, lookin' all around, all around my mind.
I'm lost in my town, I'm lost in my life, gotta find my way out
my way… my way… out.
I've got to run away, a way out of my mind.
I've got to run away, run away of this place.
I've got to run away, a way out of my mind.
I gotta, I gotta, I gotta run away…
CELTIC WAYS
J'ai intérêt à me méfier des sentiers forestiers d'antan, sinon j'aurai à rendre compte aux Korrigans et aux lutins...
J'ai intérêt à corriger l'angle de tir sinon j'aurai à regretter de n'avoir su rester fidèle à nos valeurs, et m'être perdu en chemin.
J'ai intérêt à renoncer à mes errances de jeunesse, à revenir sur les hauteurs indiquées par les enchanteurs.
J'ai intérêt à redouter les fossés et les précipices, craindre les foudres de Taranis qui pourrait, d'un éclair rageur, m'éliminer de sa légende.
Sur la route tracée de mon destin je voulais m'amuser un peu…
Mais des sons venus d'un au-delà m'ont rappelé quelle était ma voie.
C'est décidé je vais monter, m'éloigner du royaume des brumes, rattraper l'air des cornemuses, longer les rivières de fortune qui me mèneront à Avalon…
Sur la route tracée de mon destin je voulais m'amuser un peu…
Mais des sons venus d'un au-delà m'ont rappelé quelle était ma voie.
Sur la route tracée de mon destin je voulais m'enivrer un peu…
Mais des muses venues de l'au-delà m'ont rappelé quelle était ma voie.
On my way, riding a heavy horse, I will join the fields of the gods.
All I need to be as glorious is to keep a sword in my hand...
