Thoughts, bad luck, non-events,
I want to collect it all.
Is it flawed ? Unnecessary point.
Quiet, hard work. I'll never
Betray the whole new headlong rush.
(I've) got nothing to be ashamed of.
Other times and other lies
Turn emotions into cross-marked
Lonely places when anxieties are
Reason why we cannot try.
Whole is not enough to find out
The truth that I miss every time
When emotions come undone.
Crushed but not lost, I'm able
To see the world behind a glass.
I enjoy it while it lasts.

A dark entry. I wanna know where the track can lead.
I can hardly read a few words but the meaning seems
Incomplete : « where my heart is no more ». (So I)
Trick and leave. Unsuspected marks of ink
will help me through the night.
Talking seems more boring than ever
Other things seem suddenly to matter.
A light so dim, that I have hardly seen
Draws me into the room I've never been.
Scared to think, I wouldn't take my eyes off it. (I keep)
Still in here, no matter what I'm willing to seek.
And all is set on fire.
Talking seems more boring than ever
Other things seem suddenly to matter.
I ran, I was out of breath, as if my life was played on the race.
It made me feel higher, higher than I thought.
Flames stopped the race and before I lost myself
Like in a gothic tale with scorched hearts.
Together, it seemed out of place but the trial would not be fair
I left in the fire my loneliness
We jumped with no regrets in the once dark empty place
That was then the brightest thing ever made.

It's the song I hate
This isn't drowning when it's hard to breathe,
This isn't warning : I can oversee
Your anger that will come down on me
And other things so badly understood. I lose sight of your concern
Dry skin, you came to me but
I hardly change it all. You're harsh and controversial
Dry skin, you came to me but I lose sight of your concern
I hardly change it all. I'm mad for what you did though
I lose sight of your concern here
I'm holding back and leave the things aside
That I'm craving to say every time You look disconnected
My head collapses inside.
Your words are my dynamite You're harsh and controversial
My head collapses inside. I lose sight of your concern
Your words are my dynamite No matter what you stand for
I lose sight of your concern here.
No ordinary backwards would make it better if we tried
To understand the whole lot and start to read each other's mind

The Dark Shadow

Lovers make me wonder if you'd get over, get over the dark shadow that shows on your beautiful wide photos
A warm light on your pale back is what I need secretly to hold tighter, to think smarter.
How can we, how can we ?
You came to help me too, you now seem so far
I'm lost and hardly fixed but I cannot hide I want you to tell me the truth
Let's start another fight so we can think apart Lonely I'm better than you
Waiting for a shot, anything that could fall
Sometimes I get lax and things that I cannot feel, that I cannot think turn into a really sweet obsession to me.
I cannot hide it.

I Wanna Fight You

I try hard, you never told me, you never saw me
The way still wasn't closed when we used to play almost in the same way
I swallow hard, I don't feel bad here but stuck in high gear
I do not deserve any trust, I let myself be drowned in a very quiet sea.

Play Reverse Play

I long stare through the dark
The pale light on the wall comes out.
But it's when the noises stop
That I can say for sure I woke up.
Almost here, and travel, travel.
Light can lead to unravel, unravel.
I found those audio tapes back.
With blue ink labels time has washed out.
It's strange how emotional things are
Where no one comes and see what it's like.
Much more than fear
Could help me or could move me.
I hold back my tears.
How could I think I would fit in here?
Not there, either.
Not there, either.
Almost here, and travel, travel.
Light can lead to unravel, unravel.

In Place of Anger

I am not mystical.
Though the sound shook the ground
I knew at once, not hard to find.
Not another cryptic sign.
Lost, infortunate
Unlock and let me out.
I'll shout untill you bleed
And whisper : did you think of
My cryptic and twisted smile
While you go deep in the sand
Unlock and let me out,
Unlock and let me out.
A try to fix the game
Your optic nerve would never convey
Anger precedes the lies
You're killing me with your smile
A hint for your sick game
Your limbic brain would never forget
Anger precedes the lies
My anger precedes the lies
We will haunt these tidy lives
As we hide in the dark
Blue lights out, blue lights out
We will haunt these tidy lives
As we hide in the dark
Last close fight, last close fight.

Cold and covered up. - Another coffee ? - Sure, it would be nice.
We can't really speak when it comes to our secret lives.
These friendly talks don't always leave me unhurt.
Lovers come and go. You've learned what it means when they smile.
All became meaningless. Was it another feint ? You lied and thought I'd come.

Corps Perdus

You tell me how
You never seem to worry about us
And too much time
And too much for the trouble between us
Long I stood out the sun
And suddenly it couldn't be gone
Stillness of the night air.
When all the love is done one way or another
Thrills you used to feel are no longer
Now you fade away
The blood crossed by so many fires
Red and blue stains of desire
Slowly burns away
Could we make it ? Was it for real ?
Or did we just mix up things ?
No matter what is said.
You tell me how
You never seem to worry about us
And too much time
And too much for the trouble between us
On a slow sunday we couldn't sleep
We built a home we never would leave
And you said it with a smile
I thought you were the one I was drawn to
I thought you were the one I would beg to
Do not go away.
A triad, a triad, a triad …

Lying still she wouldn't speak
even though she could get low
We wouldn't play the game they fix,
we'd suck at it and we'd get sour
I never thought the night so deep
and painful the morning sore
I wake to see another bleak
whispering morning hope
I don't want the feel without control,
to extend what we don't know
Tired of going back and forth
Tired of going back and forth
Let's make things better, better
You got me when you said
You disappointed me when you said

My Imaginary Loves Toulouse, France
The band performs sensitive songs, led by three voices answering and interweaving with each other. This is indie rock of the melancholic and rough sort, going from a clear line to stronger, noisier flavours. But the music always displays the same emotions. Encounters which tend to change one’s direction. ... more
