Cockroaches

I can hear them scurrying, hurrying
Crawling along the lines of my life
Suddenly they°re joinging all together in a scream
Forming a myriad of shells and eyes starring at me
I know the time has come to face what should have been done
For so long
God hates cowards
The coackroaches throw away in a hole and start to laugh at me
And my poor condition
I try to escape but they are more and more
They need to dirty me and get inside my mind
The majority is almost never wrong
I said maybe those are my last thoughts
With you, life was unbearable
Without it°s miserable
I can°t even remember anything I cherrish
When there°s one, a million are hiding
Singing a requiem for my fears
And an ode to a rotten world

This will burn us
Its power destroys us
That knowledge tires us
Heavyness crushes us an happiness quest
Time is tanning me like an old shedding skin
Beliefs are gone, searching for new horizons
Leaving our cenopaths, life°s a card castle
Let time fly, dont°t try to count the days
Don°t try to name the years, learning to live the present
Old boxes full of old pictures kept in mind
Erased from life existence is a dead end
Rarely touched by grace
And eternity is famous men self sufficency memories, experiences
Everything that piles up
It helps living as immortal
Towonder about the inextinguible
When every yesterday tastes the same as every today
Time is the only God
Every hour opens you to the path
Every hour erases your last steps
Every hour is just a shadow of itself
Every hour is an eternal equation

Oiseau de malheur

Behind the mask was the look of betrayal
We thought we°d die from this invisible ghost
A portrait of a marabou killer, a killer I couldn°t see
Killing for no reason and killing for no field
Drinking silent words while losing innocence
A modern plague spreading despair
Vultures feed on the gullibility of sheeps
Belief defeating knowledge almost everywhere
Me like an horror, me like an error
A blossom of black signs along the way
An anthology of deadlocks
Shutting down the life
Like dead sparrows
Falling from the sky
The sun is now playing with the night
In this world wich could have changed
But staid the same in a worse version of itself
Crows sold cheating colours in a frozen grey world

Could you finally be the singular seahorse, creature, scattered across the ocean
Like the yang carrying its children
Breaking the codes, showing what it°s like
The pendulum always comes back
Now some end up paying for the crimes of a few
They°re killing genders, those bodies the poison
We are all born from the same cell
Discredit all speaches of equality
And shit on complementarity
Live your partitioned dreams
Call us abnormal majority when questionning
The dogma sends me in the opponent side
Under the words the war
Community empire is that what you°re searching for
The ship is going down
The decline is showing up
No place for radical isms
It°s steps backward
Intolerance deviance
You°re killing all basics
Forever resentment
Extreme hate the process
