lyrics

Am I alone, on this empty floor
only hearts of stone
behind this decor

This bad feeling
this default refuge
what will carry me
when the reason will go

Is it the evil of privilege,
to close in on oneself
rather than looking on the edge
and forget a little bout our self?

I have to refuse to let flow
everyone has a reason to fuss
and if I finally let go
What will happened to us ?

Are we afraid ?
are we still alive ?
stuffs are not what you think they are
You can't do anything

Sitting on the branch we cut, carried away by the void below
it is healthier to get hurt, in a place based on ego

by dint of thinking about what can change,
everything seems so absurd and cynical,
and if I know that nothing is written,
yet everything is only logical

Why is it so nice?
To just
Uplifting feeling
and then
Introspection has
sometimes
a hidden meaning,

Understand yourself to understand the world?
admit only one thing,
I don't know anything.

There are only / things left to learn,
to try any / and consider.
I wonder how I /could still discuss,
while it was all/ in front of us,

Why is it so nice?
Is this the only way to grow?
Or the only way to flow?

understand yourself to understand the world?
I admit only one thing,
is that I don't know anything.
