Cet EP est la première partie d'un album complet mettant en scène un personnage principal plutôt solitaire qui, ne trouvant pas sa place dans le monde et voulant à tout prix améliorer la situation actuelle qui s’enlise, va signer un pacte avec le diable. Ce pacte va lui donner le pouvoir de se rendre dans le futur afin de changer le monde. Mais bien évidemment, rien ne va se passer comme prévu…

about
Bien obligé d’avancer, notre personnage essaie de faire son chemin comme il peut. Il participe à une de ces émissions stupides de télé-réalité pour essayer d’accéder à la facilité de la célébrité. Mais il se sent honteux d’en être arriver là, et accentue ainsi ce sentiment d’être exploité par une société dans laquelle il n’a pas sa place. Il va alors faire la connaissance d’un mystérieux personnage, « Devin », qui va lui ouvrir les yeux et le pousser dans un cercle vicieux autour duquel il tournait dangereusement. Ce que lui dit cet homme va hanter ses pensées, à tel point qu’il croira entendre des voix dans sa tête. Etait-ce un ami qui l’a mis en garde ? Ou était-ce simplement ces voix qu’il entend et qui lui répètent sans cesse la même chose : nous vivons dans un monde fait de mensonges et de faux semblants.
lyrics
I’m waking up, again, in a stranger’s bed
Feeling ashamed, again, of this stupid game
Wasting my time to fake on a TV set
The fame I’ll never get
And you will try, I guess, to keep the faith
In the medias who share the last in fashion
TV game instead of the falling nation
And this frustration will never let you go ahead
And these strings on you are leading you to the edge
I bet it’s too late
I met a man, one or maybe two days ago,
He said « my friend you have something to know
We’re living in a kind of sinking world
Coming to it’s expiry date »
Looking ‘round I suddenly realize
This fucking hell that he was talking about
And coming to the point that we can’t turn back
We just have to pray for another chance
To never be so mad (Again)
And to never be so blinded
By the tricks and the lies
That they bring into our mind
It’s the song of a man
A serenade (of a) so lonely guy
As a call in the night
Why can’t you hear me screamin’
I can’t find my place in this world where we’re livin’
With someone screaming in my head
Is that a voice or a friend that I’m hearing
It’s reckless but it seems to be brave
Ok guys, this is the time for us to be proud of the things we did before
These fucking damn things that lead us to the shit where we’re living today
I got these voices in my head who scream
« You can’t find another way to live
The lies into your eyes
Have finally overcome your smile » (You’re finally going mad)
Devin said it was too much for me (You can’t believe)
Too weak for this reality (In this reality)
I’m begging you today (I pray to get)
To get the point and take another way (Another chance, another way)
To never be so mad
And to never be so blinded
By the tricks and the lies
That they bring into our mind
It’s the song of a man (These damn things are getting you)
A serenade, So lonely guy (Over and over)
As a call in the night (Again ! So it’s time)
To free yourselves and take this chance ( To free yourselves and take this chance)
