I received a prize
A kiss on my neck from two burning lips
Too late I realize
How much it was worth, off my skin it slips
It flickers and dies
Just like those you cast away
Please just let the grass
Cover up my flesh til my heart's asleep
Time is meant to pass
Everything to lose and nothing to keep
You'll find out at last
Why your friends could never stay
Got to pick an eye
To offer the gods to become a king
I'm still gonna cry
I'm still gonna see it was for nothing
Everything's a lie
Until we return to clay
You struggle, you strive
Somehow still afloat on your frail ideal
How do you survive
When depression taints everything you feel
Let it go and dive
Deep into the ocean grey
Give up on your pride
Your ego's a chain that just weighs you down
Empires collide
On the tiny one that would wear the crown
You cannot decide
Which way leads you to decay
Shadows that you cast
Make you feel so small in a world so cold
Finding peace at last
You stand all alone and you feel so old
Glimpses of the past
Fade into another day
Breaking off the ties
Off with all the guilt, off with all the shame
Off with all the lies
Shake it off, you will never be the same
Comes as no surprise
As you watch them burn away

On ne frappe pas un homme à terre : c'est ce que dit la règle mais NONE a déjà prouvé qu'il ne les suivait pas et si son album éponyme retirait toute perspective de béatitude spirituelle, Life has gone on long enough, son deuxième opus, nous interdit l'accès au bonheur terrestre. La vie n'a aucune substance et la production plus distante le confirme. Le DSBM s'empare de textures sonores blues, mettant en relief une dépression urbaine. Les cris partent en fumées : ne restent que les pleurs... Jordan Vauvert
