On Pause
Sweet Fatigue enveloping my body
I just want to sit here & Listen to the
crowd
Wanting everything to be on Pause
Fantasy of a city on pause
Softly rocked by the sameness of the
mass
I’m not ready to face the outside world
Let me be on pause please, I’m tired
Chorus :
I’m tired, my body is sore
I’m tired, my mind is blinded
I’m tired, requesting rest
Need my whole self to be on pause
Keep on living I just wanna watch
This soft moment of nothingness is mine
Fantasizing everything to be on pause
Melancholy cloud where I can pray
I’m not ready to face the outside world
Let me be on pause please
I would like to sleep just a little before
I had a restless night I am completely
upset
I am frightfully nervous
I am in need of great softness
I would like to sleep just a little before

Give me back my Black Dolls
Hommage to Leon-Gontran Damas
poem «Limbé»
Why did you take everything with you
When you went away
I forgot who I was before you came
Am I still that person ?
That worthwhile being ?
Somehow you revealed my anger
My anger became a source of motion
I crave for bad things to come your way…
My anger became a source of power
I crave for bad things to come your way
I’ll do Voodoo on you (I’ll do Voodoo on you)
I’ll Voodoo the She out of you (I’ll do Voodoo on you)
I’ll do Voodoo on you (I’ll do Voodoo on you)
I’ll Voodoo the She out of you (I’ll do Voodoo on you)
I want to keep my darkness alive (I’ll do Voodoo on you)
I want to breathe in the light until it’s night
(I’ll do Voodoo on you)
Exhale the obscurity (I’ll do Voodoo on you)
Fill the void with clarity (I’ll do Voodoo)
Chorus
You will lose your hair on your neck
And your house to accidental fire
A hundred doomy mirrors you will break
I swear a cease-fire you will soon require
I wish I’d wish to seek a way out
Of this glorious gloom
I wish I’d wish to seek a way out
Of this glorious gloom
Give me back my black dolls
Give me back my black dolls
I’ll do Voodoo on you
I’ll do Voodoo on you
I’ll do Voodoo on you

She was Fearless

She was Fearless
Dedicated to Marie
Her door was kept wide open
She was standing in the front
Her door was kept wide open
She was standing in the front
It was always warm inside
Always warm inside
Fearless
Fearless
She would teach us the way
Then she would leave for the rose
She would teach us the way
Then she would leave for the rose
Came the days of battle
The sunless hours
She was Fearless
Came the days of battle
The sunless hours
She did wonders
To delay the fall
She was spinning on a million colors track
She was spinning
Smiling so big
Afraid of nothing
Smiling so big
Fearless
Fearless
Smiling so big
Fearless

Neon Train

Neon Train
Body replete with sound
Suddenly I’m found
I ring and I shine
I ring and I chime
No need for pills with a vibe like that,
But I might still take some tonight
My soul’s on board on a neon train
In the light I am dark
In the dark I feel light
Far way, far away,
From home
Ring this until it’s tomorrow
Ring this until it’s after tomorrow
Ring this until it’s high and low
My mind in a trance
My body in a haze
I want to stay in a joyous daze
Ring this until it’s tomorrow
Ring this until it’s after tomorrow
Ring this ‘til it’s high and low
My mind in a trance
My mind in a haze
My mind in a trance
My mind in a haze
My mind in a trance
My body in a haze
My mind in a trance
My body in a haze
¬¬¬
My pain has gone I’m ruthless
My energy knows no limit
I will free us from coercion
My soul’s on board on a neon train
My skin takes on a blue sheen
My hair becomes this wild mane
Nothing is holding me down to the ground
Nothing is holding me down anymore
Nothing is holding me down to the ground
Nothing is holding me down
Nothing is holding me down anymore
I swirl I dance I crash
As the wind
I collapse
Nothing is holding me down to the ground
Nothing is holding me down anymore
Ring this high and low
My mind in a trance
My body in a haze
My mind in a trance
My body in a haze
My mind in a trance
My body in a haze
I want to stay in a joyous daze
I want to stay in a joyous daze
I want to stay in a joyous daze
I want to stay in a joyous daze
My pain has gone I’m ruthless
My energy knows no limit
I will free us from restraint
And the sound takes me back to here
To now
Into the chime of this black crowd
