I Owe You Nothing
03:14

I’m cutting the cord
Let them blow by
Little by little
What is a norm?
I’m breaking my cage
Suspended reflections
Emerging in blossom
A different point of view
I owe you nothing
Don’t owe you pretty, no!
Not gonna beg you for
Nothing at all
I’ll be myself
Be myself
And you don’t own me
I’m no one’s trophy
I owe you nothing
I owe you nothing
I owe you nothing at all
I’m angry and worn out
They tell it’s for the best
Doesn’t make them any smarter
It’s mostly for the worst
I’m angry and worn out
They tell it’s for the best
Doesn’t make them any smarter
It’s mostly for the worst
I owe you nothing
Don’t owe you pretty, no!
Not gonna beg you for
Nothing at all
I’ll be myself
Be myself
And you don’t own me
I’m no one’s trophy
I owe you nothing
I owe you nothing
I owe you nothing at all
I owe you nothing
I owe you nothing at all
I owe you nothing
I owe you nothing at all

Valediction
05:12

I should have seen it coming
There were those little signs
You’re always smarter afterwards
The shivering inside
Which part of no didn’t you understand
Why wasn’t my word worth being heard
Why didn’t I see it coming
And I run, run, run, run, run to get my life back
This is my valediction
I leave you in the past
This is my valediction
To a friend I lost
And I run, run, run, run, run to get my life back
This is my valediction
I leave you in the past
This is my valediction
To a friend I lost
The world does not belong to you
You’re just a guest on it
The shaking’s in every part of me
The silence is so loud
Which part of no didn’t you understand
A N, an O means no, means no, means no, means no, means no
This is not so hard my friend
And I run, run, run, run, run to get my life back
This is my valediction
I leave you in the past
This is my valediction
To a friend I lost
And I run, run, run, run, run to get my life back
This is my valediction
I leave you in the past
This is my valediction
To a friend I lost

Going With The Moon

GOING WITH THE MOON
I’m going with the moon
Leaving all behind
Abandoning myself
Alla corrente di marea.
I’m going with the moon
Leaving all behind
Abandoning myself
Alla corrente di marea
I’m back and let’s plan
La tranquillità
Intense and resilient
Pour le départ
I know I can do it
La sincerità
Active and with ease
Pour déborder de vie
I’m going with the moon
Leaving all behind
Abandoning myself
Alla corrente di marea
I’m going with the moon
Leaving all behind
Abandoning myself
Alla corrente di marea
I’m closing the chapter
La concentrazione
Loud and perplexing
Pour le doute de moi-même
I’m all by myself
L’intuizione
Calm and reflecting
Pour la compréhension
I’m going with the moon
Leaving all behind
Abandoning myself
Alla corrente di marea
I’m going with the moon
Leaving all behind
Abandoning myself
Alla corrente di marea

I'm on the road
To a different world
Who knows how long it takes
I'm done with you
And off I go
On the road
To a different world
As if ignoring evidence
Would make it go away
Categories and expectations
Seem resistant to new ken
Images perpetuated
Time and time again
Ignorance and representations
Of realities without change
I'm on the road
To a different world
Who knows how long it takes
I'm done with you
and off I go
On the road
to a different world
Illusory correlation
Ignorance everywhere
Judgmental overgeneralization
Oversimplification at its best
Disillusion everywhere
Self-absorpted pleasures
The damage made of vanity
Courage is nowhere
I'm on the road
To a different world
Who knows how long it takes
I'm done with you
and off I go
On the road
to a different world
I'm on the road
To a different world
Who knows how long it takes
I'm done with you
and off I go
On the road
to a different world
I'm on the road
To a different world
Who knows how long it takes
I'm done with you
and off I go
On the road
to a different world

Reflection

REFLECTION
Keep up the illusion
Live your own life
Consider and reconsider
Re-evaluate
There's no separation
Between principles and life
Each step is a decision
Of vital scale and size
An eternal conversation
With those who stroll around
In the irreversible process
Of becoming and of change
Constant scrutinizing
Reflecting everywhere
The passing by of life and time
Transformation will unfold

I Want you To Know
03:46
|

I want you to know
That you’re not alone
When you’re all alone
Not knowing where you belong
Flying through the night
Diving in the darkness
Travelling lights in your mind
I want you to know
That you’re not alone
When you’re all alone
Not knowing where you belong
Flying through the night
Diving in the darkness
Travelling lights in your mind
La mémoire épisodique
Une apathie
Un manque du mot
La mémoire sémantique
ne plus reconnaître les proches
une résistance irrationnelle au soin
I want you to know
That you’re not alone
When you’re all alone
Not knowing where you belong
Flying through the night
Diving in the darkness
Travelling lights in your mind
La mémoire implicite
la grande confusion
La tristesse
Et tu danses danses danses avec nous
Et tu chantes chantes chantes avec nous
Et tu ris ris ris avec nous
Et tu danses chantes ris
I want you to know
That you’re not alone
When you’re all alone
Not knowing where you belong
Flying through the night
Diving in the darkness
Travelling lights in your mind
I want you to know
That you’re not alone
When you’re all alone
Not knowing where you belong
Flying through the night
Diving in the darkness
Travelling lights in your mind
Bon courage de m’effacer
Bon courage de me diffamer
Bon courage de changer la mémoire
Bon courage, bon courage

Glowing Goodbye
05:52
|
|||
|
The world is dressed in gold
I am waiting all alone
A heavy scent wrestling with time
A peaceful glowing goodbye
Sitting in the sun
Knowing I arrived
A cricket here
A bird over there
Golden and so warm
Calm I know
Of the closing end
Serene and brimming laying there
A lazy cat
A quiet flame
In warming autumn light
Sitting in the sun
Knowing I arrived
A cricket here
A bird over there
Golden and so warm
The world is dressed in gold
I am waiting all alone
A heavy scent wrestling with time
A peaceful glowing goodbye
