"Je m'aperçois que vieillir, c'est savoir discerner la part d'absence, absente de chaque nouveauté." (Yves Simon, La dérive des sentiments) Parce que les êtres ne sont pas interchangeables, même si nous croyons un temps gommer la douleur qui nous vrille le coeur en nous élançant à corps perdu vers de nouveaux horizons.

Thought I saw you at our bar last night Hid in the bathroom, I just couldn't stay high
'Cause I took so much time to reset my life But in just one look, I'm back Forget that I could have any one I like But now all I remember is what we had
Nobody, nobody, nobody compares to you Somebody, somebody please help me get over you 'Cause it feels like I've been wasting my time In all the wrong places, on all the wrong faces Nobody compares to you Nobody compares to you Nobody compares to you
Nobody compares to you Nobody compares to you
What should I do? Maybe I'll move away Start somewhere new, I'll let you have LA
'Cause I took so much time to reset my life But in just one look, I'm back Forget that I could have any one I like But now all I remember is what we had
Nobody, nobody, nobody compares to you Somebody, somebody please help me get over you 'Cause it feels like I've been wasting my time In all the wrong places, on all the wrong faces Nobody compares to you Nobody compares to you Nobody compares to you
Nobody compares to you Nobody compares to you
You're once in a lifetime Better than New Year's at midnight Wanna grab on and hold tight And I won't let go I hope you can hear this 'Cause it's your face that I miss Your lips I wanna kiss
Nobody, nobody, nobody compares to you Somebody, somebody please help me get over you 'Cause it feels like I've been wasting my time In all the wrong places, on all the wrong faces Nobody compares to you
Nobody compares to you Nobody, nobody, nobody compares to you
I'm done hating myself for feeling
I'm done crying myself awake
I've gotta leave and start the healing
But when you move like that, I just wanna stay
What have I become? Looking through your phone (now oh now)
Love to you is just a game
Look what I have done, dialing up the numbers on you
I don't want my heart to break, baby
How do you sleep when you lie to me?
All that shame and all that danger
I'm hoping that my love will keep you up tonight
Baby, how do you sleep when you lie to me?
All that fear and all that pressure
I'm hoping that my love will keep you up tonight
Tell me, how do you?
Love will keep you up tonight
Tell me how do you?
Oh no, how did I manage to lose me?
I am not this desperate, not this crazy
There's no way I'm sticking 'round to find out
I won't lose like that, I won't lose myself
Look what I've done
Dialing up the numbers on you
I don't want my heart to break, baby
How do you sleep when you lie to me?
All that shame and all that danger
I'm hoping that my love will keep you up tonight
Baby, how do you sleep when you lie to me?
All that fear and all that pressure
I'm hoping that my love will keep you up tonight
Tell me, how do you?
Love will keep you up tonight
Tell me how do you?
Love will keep you up tonight
Baby, how do you sleep when you lie to me?
All that shame and all that danger
I'm hoping that my love will keep you up tonight
Baby, how do you sleep when you lie to me?
All that fear and all that pressure
I'm hoping that my love will keep you up tonight
Tell me, how do you?
I wonder, maybe they'd never find me I've been waitin' such a long, long, long time to feel it Swallowed by the waters around me Though I took so many wrong, wrong, wrong turns to see it, whoa
But I dance through the blisters at night And I laughed 'til I cried and cried and I ran 'til my feet couldn't run no more (No more, no more) And I sang 'til my lungs were burnin' 'Til I know I'm alive, alive, yeah I'll sit 'til I can't hear your voice no more
Suddenly the sun comes up And I feel my love floodin' back again, yeah Until the sun goes up And I feel my love comin' up again Suddenly the sun comes up And the dark is gone We made it to the dawn And I don't miss you anymore When the sun comes up I can feel my love comin' back again
It wasn't easy tryin' to run with these handcuffs I had to sleep through such a cold, cold, cold night to see it Green flashes hit me right where I'm standing Sunlight cut into your bones, bones, bones, started to heal it
But I dance through the blisters at night And I laughed 'til I cried and cried and I ran 'til my feet couldn't run no more (No more, no more) And I sang 'til my lungs were burnin' 'Til I know I'm alive, alive, yeah I'll sit 'til I can't hear your voice no more
Suddenly the sun comes up And I feel my love floodin' back again, yeah Until the sun goes up And I feel my love comin' up again Suddenly the sun comes up And the dark is gone We made it to the dawn And I don't miss you anymore When the sun comes up I can feel my love comin' back again
Give a little light To get a little love back Give a little light To get a little love back Give a little light To get a little love back Won't you give it Give a little love back Give a little light To get a little love back Won't you give it Turn your light on me Give a little light To get a little love back Give a little, to get a little love Give a little light To get a little love back To get a little love back
Oh, I dance through the blisters at night I laughed 'til I cried and cried and I ran 'til my feet couldn't run no more (No more, no more) And I sang 'til my lungs were burnin' I'm alive, alive I can't hear your voice no more
Suddenly the sun comes up And I feel my love Sun comes up again, my love Until the sun comes up And I feel my love comin' up again I can feel my love, I can feel my love
Get up, get up
Get up, get up
Get up, get up
Get up, get up, get up, get up
Get up, get up, get up, get up
I know you're clinging to the light of day
To tell you everything's A-okay
And medication don't do much
Yeah, it just numbs the brain
Guess you might say I'm a little intense
I'm on the bright side of being hellbent
So take it from me, you're not the only one
Who can't see straight (Can't see straight)
If you're ever in doubt
Don't sell yourself short, you might be bulletproof
Hard to move mountains when you're paralyzed
But you gotta try
And I'm calling out...
Get up, get up
Get a move on
Get up, get up
What's taking so long?
Get up, get up
Get a move on
Stop stalling, I'm calling out
Get up, get up
Get a move on
Get up, get up
Ain't nothing wrong
'Cause I believe you can be whatever
And I agree you can do much better, trust me
Trust me
Everybody wants to sing their song
Some Marvin Gaye "What's Going On"
Ain't nothing normal when it comes to you and me
I'd rather twist myself in knots than watch you give up on your dreams
If you were ever in doubt
Don't sell yourself short, you might be bulletproof
Hard to move mountains when you're paralyzed
But you gotta try
So, I'm calling out...
Get up, get up
Get a move on
Get up, get up

Yeah, sometimes you're wrong, sometimes you're right
I'm just gonna keep moving
Yeah, I'm just gonna keep moving
Today, tomorrow and the next
Get up, get up
Get a move on

When I first saw you standing there
You know it was a little hard not to stare
So nervous when I drove you home
I know being apart's a little hard to bear
Sent some flowers to your work in hopes
That I'd have you in my arms again
We kissed that night before I left
Still now that's something I could never forget
You've got all that I need
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and I
With you I know that I'm good for something
So let's go give it a try
We've got our backs against the ocean
It's just us against the world
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and I
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and I
Let's take a chance go far away today
And never look back again
Since I said I loved you in Las Vegas
It's never been the same since then
You've got all that I need
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and I
With you I know that I'm good for something
So let's go give it a try
We've got our backs against the ocean
It's just us against the world
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and I
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and I
This is it
Nothing to hide
One more kiss
Never say goodbye
This is it
Baby you're all mine
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and I
I know that I'm good for something
So let's go give it a try
We've got our backs against the ocean
It's just us against the world
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and I
With you I know that I'm good for something
So let's go give it a try
We've got our backs against the ocean
It's just us against the world
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and I
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it's you and I
Babe it's you and I
I see myself in the Northern Lights
And the way she looks, it devastates me
And every night it's loud love songs
So was it all a dream, yeah all a dream, to me?
I can't keep you
I can't keep you off my mind
'Cause I need you, yeah I need you
Don't you remember?
So I'll carry you if you carry me
A delusion that is elevating
And I want you to know how I think
So was it all a dream, yeah all a dream, to me?
I can't keep you
I can't keep you off my mind
'Cause I need you, yeah I need you
Don't you remember?
Don't you remember?
Don't you remember?
If we could live our dream together
Stuck in this fantasy forever
If I could cure whatever is you
I'd scream Amen
If we could stay this long together
If we could live inside a dream
If every thought went on forever
I'd pray Good Lord
I've got you on my mind
Soaring through silent skies
Over the coastal city
'Cross the ocean
And I'm carried on a breeze Up north is where I'm going
On the borderland of sleep
Where you're living
Je viens te retrouver
Quand la lune est cachée
Paradis à ma portée
Dans mes rêves
Toute la nuit quand je dors
C'est ton parfum que je respire
C'est ta voix dans le décor
Toi qui m'inspires
I fall asleep, get numb in my feet
And hear something in my soul
Frissons sur la peau, en songe en solo
Je veux rester des heures
Halfway I wake up, Thwarted by bad luck
Wind's blowing from the west
Brouillard argenté s'envole en fumée
Tu pars, j'en ai bien peur
Je garde les yeux fermés
In time I'll be returning
Et mes mains sur tes poignets
Dans nos rêves
I'll be carried on a breeze
Toute la nuit quand je dors Up north is where I'm going
On the borderland of sleep
C'est ta voix dans le décor
Where you're living
Toute la nuit quand je dors
Toute la nuit quand je dors
Watch the stars as they're dancing
Like I'm caught in a trance and
I will steal every one for you
See you on the horizon
I will be lightening
I will fly for the night for you
To tell you the truth
I'd die for you
I'm at the door screaming, take me now
To tell you the truth
I'd die for you
I'm at the door screaming, take me now
The rise, and then the fall
The climb, the curtain call
It's yours, you have it all
Take me now
Your back against the wall
Blood rushes, bodies sprawl
I need it all
Take me, oh, take me now
You shine like a diamond
Pull me in like a siren
I'd abandon this ship for you
You're my favourite addiction
And I'm never quitting
Couldn't give up the taste of you
To tell you the truth
I'd die for you
I'm at the door screaming
The rise, and then the fall
The climb, the curtain call
It's yours, you have it all
Take me now
Your back against the wall
Blood rushes, bodies sprawl
I need it all
Take me, oh, take me now
Take me now, oh
Feel your breath as it heightens
Your chest start to tighten
Let euphoria surround you
Like planets colliding
You stare in my eyes and
I watch it ignite in you
To tell you the truth
I'd die for you
I'm at the door screaming, take me now
The rise, and then the fall
The climb, the curtain call
It's yours, you have it all
Take me now
Your back against the wall
Blood rushes, bodies sprawl
I need it all
Take me, oh, take me now
We built this city We built this city on rock and roll Built this city We built this city on rock and roll
Say you don't know me or recognize my face Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight Too many runaways eating up the night
Marconi plays the mambo, listen to the radio Don't you remember? We built this city We built this city on rock and roll
We built this city We built this city on rock and roll Built this city We built this city on rock and roll
Someone's always playing corporation games Who cares, they're always changing corporation names We just want to dance here, someone stole the stage They call us irresponsible, write us off the page
Marconi plays the mambo, listen to the radio Don't you remember? We built this city We built this city on rock and roll
We built this city We built this city on rock and roll Built this city We built this city on rock and roll
It's just another Sunday In a tired old street Police have got the choke hold, oh Then we just lost the beat
Who counts the money underneath the bar? Who rides the wrecking ball into our guitars? Don't tell us you need us 'cause we're the ship of fools Looking for America, coming through your schools
(I'm looking out over that Golden Gate bridge on another gorgeous sunny Saturday and I'm seein' that bumper to bumper traffic.)
Don't you remember? (remember)
(Here's
your favorite radio station, in your favorite radio city, the city by
the bay, the city that rocks, the city that never sleeps.)
Marconi plays the mambo, listen to the radio Don't you remember? We built this city We built this city on rock and roll
We built this city We built this city on rock and roll Built this city We built this city on rock and roll Built this city (oh) We built this city on rock and roll Built this city We built this city on rock and roll
(We built, we built this city) built this city (we built, we built this city) (We built, we built this city) built this city (we built, we built this city) (We built, we built this city) built this city (we built, we built this city) (We built, we built this city) built this city (we built, we built this city)
Who'll ever win?
Gee, you're just so ephemeral
Go back for new
For new in vain, it failed
Singing on the famous street
I want to love a boy that won't love me
Am I just in heaven or Las Vegas
That's why it is more brighter than the sun is to me
He's a hustler
It's a role, he'll never make a suit
Hang on to this
So stay and spin and fail and fail
Who'll ever win?
Gee, you're just so ephemeral
Go back for new
For new in vain, it failed
Singing on the famous street
I want to love a boy that won't love me
Am I just in heaven or Las Vegas
That's why it is more brighter than the sun is to me
Reaching this itch in my soul
That's like any old playing card
It must be why I'm thinking of Las Vegas
Why it's more brighter than the sun is to me
Furthermore, let's blast it off
I'm dizzy so I go under the Big Dipper
Come fantasy for a carnival
I'm empty before our wedding
Singing on the famous street
I want to love a boy that won't love me
Am I just in heaven or Las Vegas
That's why it is more brighter than the sun is to me
Reaching this itch in my soul
That's like any old playing card
It must be why I'm thinking of Las Vegas
Why it's more brighter than the sun is to me
Maybe there, while you was rail
I'll go in and seize your heart and be personal
I suspect I'm singing to you a tune
And still you find the beat and sing it to you soon
And I hope that you find it, all that you need
I hope that you stay young and wild and free
You'll have America
And I hope that you're better than all of your friends
I hope that they hold you until the end
You can have America
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
But all of our time chasing America
Though she never had a home for me
All of our time chasing a dream
Hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm
A dream that meant nothing to me
And see where I found you, where they all lay
All of the greats, they are here to stay
Here in America
And I hope that you're finding, all that you are
I hope that it sets you up high, oh-oh, oh-oh
In the heart of America
Hmm, hmm
But all of our time chasing America
But she never had a home for me
All of our time chasing a dream
Hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm
A dream that meant nothing to me
And all the parties they fade
And yes my looks they'll go away
I'll just be left here in America
But she never had a home for me
Don't trust the ones who love you
'Cause if you love them back
They'll always disappoint you
It's just a matter of fact
Don't love the ones who trust you
It's just not in your heart
You're a teasing little twister and
They're dancers in the dark, oh, but
I wish I had a lover who'd keep it undercover
We could live our dreams, we'd sail on golden wings
I wish I had a lover, someone who wouldn't bother
To tell me what to feel, to tell me what is real
It's not a lot I'm asking for
They'll kiss you in the evening, devils in disguise, and
Love you till the morning then vanish before your eyes
A walking disaster can also master
A graceful posture, but where's the dignity when...?
I wish I had a lover who'd keep it undercover
We could live our dreams, we'd sail on golden wings
I wish I had a lover, someone who wouldn't bother
To tell me what to feel, to tell me what is real
It wouldn't even matter
If you didn't even bother
To be more than a lover
It wouldn't even matter
If I didn't even bother
To believe in a forever, no
It wouldn't even matter
If you didn't even bother
To be more than a lover
It wouldn't even matter
If you didn't even bother
To be more than a lover, no, no, no
Since I was young, I knew I'd find you
But our love was a song sung by a dying swan
And in the night, you hear me calling
You hear me calling
And in your dreams you see me falling, falling
Breathe in the light
I'll stay here in the shadow
Waiting for a sign, as the tide grows
Higher, and higher, and higher
And when the nights are long
All those stars recall your goodbye, your goodbye
And in the night you'll hear me calling
You'll hear me calling
And in your dreams you'll see us falling, falling
And in the night you'll hear me calling
You'll hear me calling
And in your dreams you'll see us falling, falling
Breathe in the light and say goodbye
Breathe in the light and say goodbye
Try to let go, but you won't let me
So I'm closed off, hating all I see
Play the victim so carelessly
You're addicted to uncertainty
Uncertainty
You bring out the lowest that I have in me
I feel the chaos and the gravity
And I can't escape the bitterness, I can't change
You bring out the lowest that I have
Lowest that I have in me
Try to hold back all the anger
But it's a trigger and I can't relax
Losing focus on the things you lack
So you push me to the brink
And I don't know what is next
You bring out the lowest that I have in me
I feel the chaos and the gravity
And I can't escape the bitterness, I can't change
You bring out the lowest that I have
Lowest that I have in me
Lowest of low
I'm so fucking high
Sever all ties
I don't recognize what I've become
Thread is pulled, you've made an animal
You bring out the lowest that I have in me
I feel the chaos and the gravity
And I can't escape the bitterness, I can't change
You bring out the lowest that I have
Lowest that I have in me
Lowest that I have in me
Here's to being human All the pain and suffering There's beauty in the bleeding At least you feel something
I wish I knew what it was like To care enough to carry on I wish I knew what it was like To find a place where I belong, but
I am machine I never sleep I keep my eyes wide open I am machine A part of me Wishes I could just feel something I am machine I never sleep Until I fix what's broken I am machine A part of me Wishes I could just feel something
Here's to being human Taking it for granted The highs and lows of living To getting second chances
I wish I knew what it was like To care about what's right or wrong I wish someone could help me find Find a place where I belong, but
I am machine I never sleep I keep my eyes wide open I am machine A part of me Wishes I could just feel something I am machine I never sleep Until I fix what's broken I am machine A part of me Wishes I could just feel something
It wasn't supposed to be this way We were meant to feel the pain I don't like what I am becoming Wish I could just feel something
I am machine I never sleep I keep my eyes wide open I am machine A part of me Wishes I could just feel something I am machine I never sleep Until I fix what's broken I am machine A part of me Wishes I could just feel something
State of the mind
State of the blind collective
Desperation calls for peace
Desperate times
Freedom denial
Free the child, the captive
Liberation taunts the thief
And paradise
Comes down to the level
Come down
Desperation calls
Desperation calls for...
Love to come and lead us home
Love is gonna mend these bones
Desperation calls for love
Desperation calls for...
Love
Love
Stray from the hive
And pray to survive the masses
All hail, here comes the queen
The paradigms
Break down if you let em
Break down
Desperation calls
Desperation calls for...
Love to come and lead us home
Love is gonna mend these bones
Desperation calls for love
Desperation calls for love
Ready or not, yeah
Ready or not, yeah
A change is gonna come
It's gonna come
And like it or not, yeah
Like it or not
We gotta break the walls
Oh oh oh
Desperation calls for love
Oh
Love is gonna lead us home
Love is gonna mend these bones
Desperation calls for love
Desperation calls for...
Love
Love to come and lead us home
Love is gonna mend these bones
Desperation calls for love
Desperation calls for love
Art is a lie
Nothing is real
A waste of my time
I don't want to feel
Anything that doesn't
Make me feel alive
I'm waking up dead
With ghosts in my bed
Wishing my world would start again
If I knew what this meant
Maybe I could stop
Yeah
Oh, and then you call me last night
Wondering how I'm doing fine
I guess maybe where I stand is
A better place than here
Baby, it's a long way down
Maybe we said goodbye
Too soon to make up our own minds
Oh, why
We're shouting out but can't make sound
Another lame excuse and we're out of time
Too soon to make up our own minds
Oh, why
But in the real world
You say, I don't have to waste my time
Lay it out now, get in
And get out of this town
Oh, and then you call me last night
Wondering how I'm doing fine
I guess maybe where I stand is
A better place than here
Baby, it's a long way down
Maybe we said goodbye
Too soon to make up our own minds
Oh, why
We're shouting out but can't make sound
Another lame excuse and we're out of time
Too soon to make up our own minds
Oh, why
And then you call me last night
Wondering how I'm doing fine
Baby, it's a long way down
Maybe we said goodbye
Too soon to make up our own minds
Oh, why
We're shouting out but can't make sound
(No, we can't make sound)
Another lame excuse and we're out of time
(We're out of time)
Too soon to make up our own minds
Oh, why
