lyrics

Elise wachbar:
Falling and swimming,
and rising again
In this city
Looking and talking,
On a line upon the gaps
Believing in your dreams
In a world that's topsy-turvy
And beware of traps
Wake up now my friend
This is not the end
Corruption, conditioning
The black hole ahead

Elise wachbar:
Let's get back to values of old
Move onwards and be bold

Toby Driver:
On the way
Point your fingers
at the stars
And fly away

Max Enix:
Chorus:
In this city where vices reign
Throw your guns away
Down the road of disarray
Give up exploitations, tyranny, liars
And throw your venom into the fires
In this city where Evil lurks
Listen to the calls
Away from days of hurts
Against oppressions
No more pressures too high
No more "do or die"
Your future lies

Toby Driver:
This registered company,
filled with uncertainty
Game Over
Eternally starting over
The past mistakes and endeavours
And they divide,
crush the others
For their own interests
Fake news, with mens as targets
They think it's so funny
Statutes are all for money
Echoes of our time is what we get

Elise wachbar:
Unfinished educations there,
Only clones of their forebears

Toby Driver:
We need to be delivered
And shed the blood

Max Enix:
Chorus:
In this city where vices reign
Throw your guns away
Down the road of disarray
Give up exploitations, tyranny, liars
And throw your venom into the fires
In this city where Evil lurks
Listen to the calls
Away from days of hurts
Against oppressions
No more pressures too high
No more "do or die"
Your future lies

Max Enix:
All the same, born in fire,
cradled in hatred, they fight like dogs... Rebellion rages on
Memories of wars forgotten
Bodies exploding on
The warmachines and bombs

Max Enix:
For pieces of paper
For some Coins around the corner
In this machine so broken
We're let astray forever

Guitar Solo made by Xavier Boscher

Toby Driver:
In this uncertain world, getting sick again
Their conditions and their feelings, are not worth their weight of gold

« Pollution is gaining ground outside, Cars are driving, people are getting angry, Unaware of what's to be
What's to do with such a blindness? Economy, persecution
Consequences of their mistakes
Our eyes to new horizons »

« I see the meaning of this existence in the midst dins, overwhelming Wolves posing as lambs, these conspirators, inside these places devoid of meaning
So take your money, kill us and condemn us before we are rightfully punished... It's about time...
In a fair world... If only... »

Elise wachbar:
By misery
we're surrounded
But they don't care
They spend their killing others
When the world is so unfair
The power of money
shall break your life
Even for your grave
Even for your grave there's a price
Gang wars and other nonsense
Please, stop the madness
And they stand there, still laughing
About their infamies and clownings

Elise wachbar:
People are still dying in the streets
For how long my friends ?

Toby Driver:
We can't even protect children
From the sight of this world broken

Max Enix:
Chorus:
In this city where vices reign
Throw your guns away
Down the road of disarray
Give up exploitations, tyranny, liars
And throw your venom into the fires
In this city where Evil lurks
Listen to the calls
Away from days of hurts
Against oppressions
No more pressures too high
No more "do or die"
Your future lies

Toby Driver:
You can see Evil spread
The good is right ahead
If this is love we spread

Elise wachbar:
A minute of Silence, of Tolerance
We will be slaves no more
They are the blood-stained hands

Toby Driver:
Guilty for all the... GORE

« As they leave a bar, Ethan and his friends see on TV another killing outside a place of worship.
Was it a terrorist attack or an isolated act ?
They wonder about it, as they leave the city »
