1. Le Chef D'oeuvre
2. The Gallery
Believing in a lie may be right
Not always your eyes see this lie
Across a way of light, I hear distant voices from outside
Facing a strong wind as if I had wings to fly
Screaming aloud can not send me out
Not always there’s someone to hear the sound
Drawing me away from the place I was before
Leading me somewhere, this vortex feels like a tug of war
This deep spotlight swallows me
How can I face it?
I’m not scared at all,
I would like to find out…
How did I reach this place?
And why do I have to play this weird game?
Wish I could believe it’s just a lie
Break free from this maze and run away
(Vortex)
Anger, envy
Lover, honey
Suffer, sorry
Brother, bloody
Come to the light
Come see what’s inside
Now’s time to shine
At the stage of your life
Twisting flashes, looking glasses, I get through them
Colorful beams, a big bell dings inside my head
Outer spaces, out of axis, I get through them
Faces calling, mystic warnings will not let me back
Many pictures on the walls flash moments from my life
Children’s play in my room, heroes and cartoons
Suddenly a big flash comes, recalls my great nights
Party’s on, sexy girls, drink’n smoke, dancin’ floor, the big boom!
The visions around me
Make me think
These conditions won’t let me
Leave this game
Traveling across the hall of my mind
I’m drawn towards a face I want to leave behind
Drawing now closer to the last picture on the wall
Then I’m forced in, and in the distance
I hear my father’s call
This deep spotlight dazzles me
Now I can face it,
I’m not afraid at all
And I will find out…
How did I reach this place?
And why do I have to play this weird game?
Wish I could believe it’s just a lie
Break free from this maze and run away
3. Broken Psyches
Frozen streets, coldest winds,
Wearing my coat, I´m going out for a walk
Hide inside my own mind,
(Andrew)
Can’t I stay alone? Look what you have done!
(Andrew’s Dad)
Come and stay
It’s my bad day
Don’t go away
I feel you crying
Don’t be down
Come back now
Upside down
My life is drowning
Comic strips, heroes’ tricks
Being like them all, I could have won the world
What bothers me is my defeat
Being like them all, I could have jumped through…
(Andrew)
Heaven’s gate
Distant fate
Have some faith
To feel the dawn
Close at hand
Dad, I’ll face the wind
I will stand at
This windowsill
I thought he’d forever
Be my guide, my master
He left us after a fight with her and went forever…
Broken psyches, love’s gone,
Mom and dad have never been the same again
That’s not easy to forget
To relieve this burden, I had to seek out
Some trails, some ways, new tracks, new days
It’s not easy to forgive
Feeling tears drop from my eyes
‘Cause I still feel the pain inside her
Oh dad! What have you done to my mum?
‘Cause of you she did not heal the hurts… She passed away…
(Andrew’s Dad)
It’s me, your dad
Trapped in bed
Now I beg
Forgive all my faults
(Andrew)
I’m not your son
Look what is done
You downed my mum
To you, I died
I thought he would never
Seek me afterwards
Sometimes I wonder, “Was I right?”, but now it’s too late… He’s dead...
Broken psyches, love’s gone,
Mom and dad have never been the same again
That’s not easy to forget
To relieve this burden, I had to seek out
Some trails, some ways, new tracks, new days
It’s not easy to forgive
4. Candlefire
Painful, still in tears
I’m shot back
To the hall, again
A new vision drags me
And I see
The features of my brother Kane
Laughing in the yard
We and friends
Always playing games
Like a dream, our past,
Me and Kane
What a pleasant life we had!
Time passing by
Took its toll, a doubt began to arise
Time changes lives
We might lose our paradise
Every time I won a prize
I looked at his eyes, saw a change inside his soul
I’m still wondering why
He turned so quiet, maybe something in his mind
(Andrew) Kane don’t hide yourself, look at my face
(Kane) What do you want to say to me?
(Andrew) I’ve a feeling you’ve not been the same with me
(Kane) What are you trying to say to me?
(Andrew) Don’t be sorry but I have to say
(Kane) Come on, don’t lie and tell me now
(Andrew) When in life I shone, I felt you were envious
(Kane) Can’t understand what you’re saying
(Kane) I don’t believe you think it about me
(Andrew) Sorry, I did not want to hurt you
(Kane) What did you call me envious for?
(Andrew) I did not mean to offend you
(Kane) I hope you think better before saying lies
(Andrew) I just think you’ve been so far away
(Kane) Wish our friendship stays alive
(Andrew) Well, I hope it was a mistake
Time passing by
Took its toll, a doubt remains inside my mind
Time changes lives
We might lose our paradise
Every time I won a prize
I looked at his eyes, saw a change inside his soul
I’m still wondering why
He turned to lie, maybe something in his mind
Whenever I had a great night
I looked at his eyes, saw a change inside his soul
I’m still wondering why
He turned to cry, maybe something in his mind
5. The Leading Roles
Looking upon another act onstage
Lights drawing my eyes
I can see myself inside this play
I feel this stage like an empty place
All the sounds of my heart
I can hear it so loud, and so alone now
Scene one, I am waking after a dream
Back to my common life
Wish it was like that sight
Trying to get back to my latest theme
But this paint won’t come up
‘Cause her voice fills my thoughts
I can’t see
Who’s that queen
‘Cause my dream
Blotted out
Hold me
With your sweet,
Warming hands
Come in,
Play the lead
On my stage
You’d be the cure for the wounds of my life
You feed the hope that lives inside
My bleeding heart
Clouded sight...
I try but I can’t draw her outline...
Scene two, just had the same dream
Each time it seems to me
That this voice sounds more honeyed,
Closer and closer to me
Scene three, I’m going out
A theater ticket found
Lying around the street
Takes me by chance to a first row seat
Play’s on, first words heard
Making the truth be unfurled
The voice that’s in my dream
Comes from her, playing the lead
Last scene, I meet her after act onstage
Just one thing I will say
“Be the lead in my play”
Now I see
You’re my queen
Dear Jeanne
Have no doubt
Hold me
With your sweet,
Warming hands
Come in,
Play the lead
On my stage
You’d be the cure for the wounds of my life
You feed the hope that lives inside
My bleeding heart
6. Party's on
Curtains closed
Show me the play is ended
Back to the hall
I can hear some notes of a song
I know that I’ve heard this before
On that night, we were partying...
Though we met on stage
Years ago my feeling still remains the same
Since then we have spent
Together merry moments and quite intense days
I did not have to wait
To say: “With you for all my life I wanna stay”
She didn’t hesitate
“Let’s make a party to tell it to our friends”
Always dreamt about the day
When I could see our children
Being loved by a dad
Better than the one I had
Party’s on
Now most of our friends are having fun
As all my family which is my bro
They’re glad that we got engaged
So come on!
On this night, we go partying...
The only thing I wish
Is that my mother would have known my dear Jeanne
If she could hear me
I would tell her that by Jeanne’s side I am so pleased
And I don’t even think
About that burning doubt: Should I have not forgiven?
My mind is in the dream
In the hope of the future that lives inside me
Always dreamt about the day
When I could see our children
Being loved by a dad
Better than the one I had
‘Till the day’s break
I wanna enjoy with all my friends
Come have a drink!
Let’s drown the pains and celebrate together
Wish I could paint this...
I’ve never had a perfect time like it
Have one more nip!
I’m sure we’ll lead a happy life together
(Jeanne)
Hey, Love
What a great time!
You know, I’ll never forget this night!
My Dear
Now it’s too late
Take me home, soon I have to wake
(Andrew)
Hey, Jeanne
Can’t take you home
I have to stay ‘till everyone’s gone
Plus now
I’m so drunk to drive
I talked to Kane, he’ll give you a ride
Now this party must go on
Until the light of sun
Let’s have fun!
No, don’t dare to stop the song!
I wanna enjoy with chums
We will not rest until comes the break of dawn
‘Till the day’s break
I wanna enjoy with all my friends
Come have a drink!
Let’s drown the pains and celebrate together
Wish I could paint this...
I’ve never had a perfect time like it
Have one more nip!
Let’s raise our glasses and have a toast together
(And I’ll stay until the day’s break)
7. Inverse
I can’t believe those so painful words
My head spins round in burns
How I wish that this was a lie
I sense that she needs me by her side
Through the window I see the rain
That can’t quench my mind, in flames
I can not waste my time
I take the keys then follow to the car
I go out so worried ‘cause I have to stay with Jeanne
Thoughts and dreams with my queen holdin’ me
My only wish is to kiss her deeply again
Growing
The flames
Inside
My head
Highways
Blood rains
My pain
Won’t go away
The hand of fate has thrown the dice for me
I can’t believe I’ll lose my dream away
Holdin’
Her sweet
Warming
Smooth hands
Growing
The flames
Inside
My dazed mind
What If I don’t see the day
When my kids will play and
I will have a perfect life
I would cry through all my days
Without those hands
In dusk I’d dive
Oh, oh no,
Through the glass I see her
With so much blood
I can’t stare at this nightmare
Oh no, don’t go
My love, hold on
Blood, Loss, Pain, Fear
Hurt, Wound, Woe, Grief
I can not make this nightmare fade away
Don’t understand how I could lose my Jeanne
Blood Rains
Blood Stains
Crying
Grieving
Won’t cure
My wound
My pain
Won’t go away
Now that I won’t see the day
When my kids would play
And I would have a perfect life
I will cry through all my days
Without those hands
In dusk I’ll dive
8. Conflagration
On my knees i cry
Perceive her spirit saying goodbye
How can i survive
If i lost the reason of my life?
Now i think, “how could this nightmare have started?”
Now the worse came
All of this shouldn’t have happened to her,
‘cause she was with kane
Hey, wait for awhile!
Well, kane gave her a ride
So how did she get hurt?
I’m going to his house, i will find out
Now, i feel that doubt
Is coming back to my mind
Deep down i sense this envy
He always kept inside him, he fed it!
(andrew)
How could you’ve thought
I’d forgive what you’ve done
With my dear jeanne?
Well, i’ll not forgive you, damn!
How could you’ve fed
This envy to cause her such pain and suffering
Now she’s dead and you will pay...
(kane)
I don’t realise what you are trying to say to me
With your confused words
So you stay calm... this envy that you say
I feed belongs to yours and not to my mind...
(andrew)
No, don’t you lie
I won’t stay calm until i find out why she died
Now, there’s no doubt
I am sure that i was right for all the time
Kane, i’ll make you pay
Now take what you deserve
Don’t beg, i hope it hurts
Don’t even holler, it doesn’t work
No, don’t lie to me
‘cause now you will get beat
Just like you did to jeanne
I’ll go until the end, won’t stop it
Can’t believe my eyes
Reach this point, how could i?
This scene quenches the flames in my mind
Now i can feel my heart
Even colder than ice
I will have to live with this for all my life
His body, now on the ground
By my feet, lifeless, motionless on the floor
Crimson surrounds me
I feel the blood on my hands
It’s not mine, but kane’s
Leave his house, i am in despair
And i don’t know what to do to withdraw this
From my mind, from my dizzy head
So i take the car, i try to go so fast
The fastest that i can go to leave
That painful scene behind, away from me
I arrive at my building’s stairs
I run up through them
My blame won’t let me forget
I fall down on my bed
My head starts to reflect
Whether i’m going mad
So now i wonder “am i to blame?”
No, the guilt is kane’s
It was his fault, i’m innocent
My deed was consequence
I am upside down, my life is drowning
Again doubtfulness starts to grow in my head
I can see that i can’t prove that he was to blame
Was i in the right? was what he said a lie?
Now it’s too late, he’s dead
9. Heaven's Gate
Still in bed
All I have are questions without answers
And wounds
I stare at this portrait of that dream
With my dear Jeanne
I could never end it
Seeing this painting, it brings to me
The sense I just lost my last good thing
Just like my mum has gone
I was convinced that who had stolen them out
From my life were the ones
Who should relieve me
But I’m no more
A new thought disturbs my head
Maybe I have been unfair
With my old man and my brother
I feel like I’m an evil man, I’m to blame
The story’s villain is what I am
I wanna return my play
I wish I was hero again
I’m going to climb up the windowsill
Once again
“There is only wounds inside me
How to heal them? I can not see”
“I will never clear my footprints
Nor live my dream”
Just like a comic strip
Hero I will wing,
Face the wind
The rain falls down
On my hands
Then wets the ground
Many floors below
Suddenly I see myself
Among four images
“Wait! It can’t be them!”
Maybe I am going crazy
But I see the faces
Of my dad, mum, Jeanne and Kane
(Dad)
Son, look at my face, don’t you do this
I know you did not trust me but do
Now, you must rely on what I say
If you do not, listen to your mum
(Mum)
You can’t give up yet, son
I beg you not to jump
Although you lost me so young
You have to carry on
(Kane)
Bro, don’t hurt yourself just like you did
To me in that moment when you lost your mind
You are still lost, you must wake up
It will not bring any good to you
(Jeanne)
What are you doing, my love?
I don’t know you anymore
The time for us will soon come
But it’s not now, so hold on!
(Mum, Dad, Kane and Jeanne)
You’ve learnt nothing, Andrew
You must unblind your eyes
You still believe in a lie
Don’t see that it can’t be right
(Andrew)
Now’s too late
I’ll face the wind
Flying, feeling this nightmare
Fading away
Setting free from this lie
Feeling this nightmare
Fading away, I’ll set free from this lie
