Aeolia

Now this is a halt in your quest.
You've crossed the seas like an exile
To a place where you can rest
Aeolia the floating isle
From the distance, you hear the sound
Of the harbor's silver bells.
Ancient sailors were spell-bound
By the melody of the conch shells
…
A strange smell of bakkari and musk
Intensifies on the way
Birds float in the gathering dusk
They're drunk with joy in jets of spray
Like a ship that splits the mist
You can see the cliffs of bronze
Where serpentine cascades twist
Where natives carved their icons
Welcome to my home, Aeolia
Leave all your cares behind
Welcome to my home, Aeolia
I'll relieve your worried mind
Soon you'll enter the island's heart
Singing antique mantras and rhymes
You'll drink the wind from its start
And learn the thought of former times
Welcome to my home, Aeolia
Leave all your cares behind
Welcome to my home, Aeolia
I'll relieve your worried mind

The Wind

Walking in the city
Under greyish trees
Feel the gentle breeze
Coming from the sea
Running in the city
Eyes down on the ground
Endless choreography
Of feet rushing around
In this barren mock nature
All you got is the wind
But when the wind is high,
You don't mind, you fool
When the wind cries through your heart
Look within and console him
When the wind beats like a drum
All that you feel, you will become
She is lost forever
Never gonna come home
You see it as an endeavour
But never cease to roam
In this barren mock nature
You're building on your own
The wind reveals the truth
But the truth is left unknown
But when the wind is high,
You don't mind, you fool
When the wind cries through your heart
Look within and console him
When the wind beats like a drum
All that you feel, you will become

Wake up again
Look at yourself, give up your pride
Inertia cools your blood, it cools your brain
But you're happy or at least satisfied
You tour the world with a smile on your face
Looking away, holding your breath
The comfort zone is a beautiful place
For a slow and peaceful death
This is all I want, this is all I want from you,
Awake from your stupor and open the door
Your heartless pleasures can't heal you
One day you won't pretend anymore
This is all I want, this is all I want from you,
Awake from your stupor and open the door
Your heartless pleasures can't heal you
One day you won't pretend anymore
You have all the powers here
While everything around you crumbles
You live in a magic sphere
Don't you know the world is full of angles ?
So wake up again
Because you used to be aware
Inside you blows a hurricane
It's something you can feel, something you can share
This is all I want, this is all I want from you,
Awake from your stupor and open the door
Your heartless pleasures can't heal you
One day you won't pretend anymore
This is all I want, this is all I want from you,
Awake from your stupor and open the door
Your heartless pleasures can't heal you
One day you won't pretend anymore

Mirrors

I was dancing in the room
Among sad shadows
But that night I saw a glow
It was a big mirror hidden in the gloom
Oh You're staring back at me
Oh with your hands on the glass
Oh, you're connecting to me
Oh, and time forgets to pass
Forgets to pass
The world is a hall of mirrors
Where you discover yourself
But when your vision gets clearer
Your face has grown old and you're someone else
Oh You're staring back at me
Oh with your hands on the glass
Oh, you're connecting to me
Oh, and time forgets to pass
Forgets to pass

Breathing

I see long veils across the sky
Slowly sailing through summer days
As humans are busy as flies
Gasping for air in smoke and haze
I'm haunted
I don't want your madness to go
I'm haunted
I'll never let you know
I'm haunted
I want you to spread your wings
I'm haunted
What are you breathing?
You breathe freely in the strong wind
And your attitude is regal
It's plain to see you're a solar being
Neighbour to the golden eagle
I'm haunted
I'll never want your madness to go
I'm haunted
I'll never let you know
I'm haunted
I want you to spread your wings
I'm haunted
What are you breathing?
I see long veils across the sky
Silently watching over me
You are not frail, they seem to sigh
Different is what you're meant to be
I'm haunted
It's inside, I feel it grow
I'm haunted
Possessed by a giant flow
I'm haunted
Let's walk together in the wind
I'm haunted
That's why I'm breathing
