THE HUNTER'S BED
Embrace the days of many joys to come
My friend, in the end, we'll win you around
You're carrying the most
Beautiful heart
Beautiful heart
You hear the herd
They call your name
You wanna join in
You need a swerve in this fucked up life
Boy if you wanna leave
You'd better leave tonight
You're your own captive left alone
In the hunter's bed
In the end your easy money's hard to make
Boy if you wanna leave
You'd better leave me now
I won't forget the words you've mumbled
My whole world has crumbled
Embrace the days of many joys to come
My friend, in the end, we'll win you around
You're carrying the most
Beautiful heart
Beautiful heart
They took you in
And now you know exactly what they saw
But if you speak you shouldn't speak too soon
This place is full of snakes and clowns
Payback might come around
Your sanctuary's in a different part of town
You know it
They'll never suspect you
You know it's true
Boy if you wanna speak
Don't speak too soon
I won't forget the words you've mumbled
My whole world has crumbled
Embrace the days of many joys to come
My friend, in the end, we'll win you around
You're carrying the most
Beautiful heart
Beautiful heart

LES ROIS

LES ROIS
Sous les pas des pachydermes
du puissant de Carthage
Sous les lames des coutelas
des bandits du clan de Guise
Sous les bombes des bombardiers
Sous les jets des catapultes
de l’auguste romain
Sous le feu des arquebuses
conquérants de Cortez
Sous les tirs des mitraillettes
des bouchers de Verdun
Passent les Rois, et leurs folles pensées
césars de funestes destins
et tombent les hommes, rêves cassés
héros d’indicibles desseins
Sous le fer des cimeterres
du sultan de Damas
Sous les traits des arbalètes
des fiers Francs de Bouvines
Sous les balles des tirailleurs
d’Omaha et d’ailleurs
Passent les Rois, et leurs folles pensées
césars de funestes destins
et tombent les hommes, rêves cassés
héros d’indicibles desseins
Sous les flots des javelines
la baie de Salamine
Sous les frappes des hallebardes
l’ost de Charles aux abois
Sous les coups des canonnades
au couchant d’Austerlitz
Passent les Rois, et leurs folles pensées
césars de funestes destins
et tombent les hommes, rêves cassés
héros d’indicibles desseins

LA RESSASSE
Je ressasse
mes crimes
L'oeil fixé sur les astres
Je ressasse je ressasse
Toujours je ressasse
Derrière moi
Repose
L'homme encastré dans sa fin
Je ressasse je ressasse
Toujours je ressasse
En ce jour
Plus rempli
De présages
Que les songes
Je ressasse je ressasse
Toujours je ressasse
Sous mes doigts s'exposent
Les courbes aux eaux irisées
Je ressasse je ressasse
Toujours je ressasse
Sous les eaux s'amoncellent
les chairs des âmes oubliées
Je ressasse je ressasse
Toujours je ressasse
En ce jour
Plus rempli
De présages
Que les songes
Je ressasse je ressasse
Toujours je ressasse
Si les ailes du monstre
Venaient à me pousser
J'attendrais que le ciel bleu
M'éclabousse
Que le ciel bleu
Eclabousse
Mes brouillards
Balaierais le blizzard
Ma figure
Comme la proue
Jaillira hors du noir
Je ressasse je ressasse
Toujours je ressasse
Mes crimes
Mes petits crimes
Tout petits crimes
Petits crimes crus
Toujours je ressasse
Si les ailes du monstre
Venaient à me pousser
J'attendrais que le ciel bleu
M'éclabousse
Que le ciel bleu
Eclabousse
Mes brouillards
Balaierais le blizzard
Ma figure
Comme la proue
Jaillira hors du noir

THE PARTY
The party's over
This is where it starts
Let's pack it up
And make it to sunrise
They told me
If I lose myself
I’ll lose everything else
But they would not mind
If I undressed the clouds
My lips kiss
everyone's lips
Kiss everyone
Your lips kiss
everyone's lips
Kiss everyone
The path to paradise
Has gone with the divine
But your disco biscuit
Brings it back to my brain
They told me
If I lose myself
I’ll lose everything else
The party's over
This is where it starts
My lips kiss
everyone's lips
Kiss everyone
Your lips kiss
everyone's lips
Kiss everyone

LA BLESSURE

LA BLESSURE
Face au vent
Volontaire et cru
Seul à l'océan
Saupoudré d'écume
Là où je t'attends
Là où je t'attends
On n'a pas le corps
Pour souffrir le froid
Violent météore
Et flocons d'effroi
Je suis le barbare
Nu et sans éclat
Quand tu me laisses à la dérive
Toi qui me blesses
J'ai vu les courants
Distribuer la peur
Les requins souvent
Frôlaient les vainqueurs
Toujours alignés
Sur l'étendue bleue
Cheveux mouillés
Toi mon frère de lait
m'a coulé dans l'eau
me retrouveras
une balle dans la peau
rasée lame de fond
rouge gorgé d'eau
caché
sous les flots
Quand tu me laisses à la dérive
Toi qui me blesses
Ton bateau voilé
Dans l'épais brouillard
Me retrouvera
Nu et sans éclat
Je ne repars pas
J'ai besoin de toi
Tu as besoin de moi
Quand tu me laisses à la dérive
Toi qui me blesses

LES GORGES
J'ai cette chose à te rendre
Rendez-vous à Phoenix
Dans les gorges asséchées
De Sonora
On dormira
A la belle étoile
On dévalera les pentes
Dans les méandres encaissées
On évoquera le passé
On esquissera le futur
On les écoutera parler
Ils ont tatoué sur le dos
Les plumes flammées du Phénix
Traversant les équinoxes
Suivi de près par le Styx
Les plaies saquées au whisky
Les aboiements dans la nuit
Le métal hurle et prend la vie
Pourtant on leur avait dit
J'ai demandé à nos cendres
Nous renaîtrons à Phoenix
Sous trappe
Dans le désert sec
Le cou roussi au soleil
Le cou roussi au soleil
Le cou roussi au soleil
Ils ont voulu nous descendre
Dans les brumes d'un dernier fix
On leur fera payer tout ça
Dans les gorges de Sonora
Face contre terre

RICOCHETS
Gardons le coeur bien accroché
Tu es la part dont je doute
Donne-moi du danger
Donne-moi du danger
Chacun de tes désirs me coûte
You always make me feel sorry
You always make me feel sorry
You always make me feel sorry
sorry sorry sorry sorry
Les rixes malaxent les arbres
Les runes prédisaient l'inexprimable
Au-dessus de nos têtes sifflent les ricochets
Ce soir le sort en est jeté
You always make me feel sorry
You always make me feel sorry
You always make me feel sorry
sorry sorry sorry sorry
Je sais de quoi tu es capable
Toujours toi et moi semblables
You always make me feel sorry
You always make me feel sorry
You always make me feel sorry
sorry sorry sorry sorry

THE LETDOWN

THE LETDOWN
My world is off tonight
Gazing at eternity
I'll dash off the last note
Feelings melted from the heat
That clash pulled me
In a daze
No doubt tonight
There's no doubt tonight
No doubt tonight
There's no doubt tonight
'Cause hey told you to pack
And leave the house
'Cause you never listen
No you never listen
They kicked you in the head
With their respect
And their compromise
You will never learn
Whistling the nocturne
That she taught me last week
In the common room
She plays an F sharp on the keyboard
and strikes another chord
hugging me close
"I know what we're gonna do tonight"
She whispers gently in my ear...
"Crack another smile
There's no doubt tonight
No doubt tonight
There's no doubt tonight,
'Cause they told you to pack
And leave the house
'Cause you never listen
No you never listen
They kicked you in the head
With their respect
And their compromise
You will never learn
Chaos is a sign,
it will lead you somewhere
You will never walk alone
Never read the signs
they will lead you nowhere
Everywhere else is your home

THE SHORT-TIMERS
Just so you know you're one of us
Another man in line, it's fine
You're one of us
Give us the pledge
On the edge you'll be one of us
Wherever you may go
Always show you're one of us
One in black
Two in brown
Three in blue
Four in white
One, two, three, four !
One with a bar
Two with a bow
Three with a stripe
Four with a star
One, two, three, four !
One in the air
Two on the sea
Three on the ground
Four in limbo
One in a port
Two in a town
Three in a field
Four on the land
One, two, three, four !
One in the CAG
Two in the SOAR
Three in the JSOC
Four in the SEAL
One, two, three, four !
One with a knife
Two with a bomb
Three with a mine
Four with a gun
One in Mossoul
Two in Tobrouk
Three in Kaboul
Four in Alep
One on a plane
Two on a ship
Three in a tank
Four in a jeep
One in the stomach
Two in the lungs
Three in the heart
Four in the head
One, two, three, four !
One in a year
Two in a month
Three in a week
Four in a day
Just so you know you're one of us
Another man in line, it's fine
You're one of us
Give us the pledge
On the edge you'll be one of us
Wherever you may go
Always show you're one of us

THE ARTEFACT
Where the island is we go
For where the island is we leave
Everybody’s lost control
The mess will be hard to clean
Where the island is we go
For where the island is we leave
None of them is easy to blame
None of us easy to believe
I won't stand a "no can do"
Today summer has come!
Where the island is we go
For where the island is we leave
We made a wish upon the artefact
The sea is not the limit
Where the island is we go
For where the island is we leave
Kiss both ways
Your body knows
The way back home
Just follow the sparrows
Where the island is we go
Free to shout
The love we grow
Well it's another song
But it's the same story
Always the same question
Still stuck in the same fit
We made a wish upon the artefact
The sky is not the limit
Where the island is we go
For where the island is we leave

LE CORPS DES SONGES
Il vient vers nous
Cet animal
Est-ce un animal
Ou un végétal?
Jugeons nous-même:
Hirsute
Coeur angélique
Et lèvres larges
L'oeil armé de longs cils
De quoi l'Autre est le nom?
Sais-tu?
De toute évidence
Un grand secret
Cette bête a surgi
Où l'on va
Cette bête nous suit
Comme l'esprit qui toujours nie
Cela doit être, je suppose,
Le corps des songes...
