TBT: Verdandi (2011)

Pushed to the limit
I want to leave
Don't let me mess around
Don't tell me to die

If you misunderstood
What my heart is offering
That's not my problem
Find your own reckoning

I never told you to be mine
You never understood my dreams
My hatred is not what you think
My poison is in my grace

If you misunderstood
What my lips are saying
That's not my problem
Find your own awakening

Empathize with my resolve
You want to leave
Don't let me down
Don't tell me no

If you misunderstood
What my destiny is offering
That's not my problem
Find your own sanity

I never told you to be distant
Understand my retribution
My sin is not what you see
My fire is in my kiss

In My Palace

I feel waves of butterflies
from heaven-
Take smiles
To the door of my palace

I hear waves of songs
from heaven-
Take dance
To the floors of my palace

I see waves of happiness
from heaven-
Take dreams
To the heart of my palace

TBT: Shades Of Love (1996)

Shades of love under my bed
Have either died or left
As I think my weakness is truth
Does it mean I’m not there
Or should I still dream
Without thinking I wonder why
Must I look atop the sun
Always I have been beneath
Still my heart beats
‘Til the end of light
Enormously loving you more
Resisting to the ever-growing tenderness…

Unsettled

The thought of my success
Fractures my ambitions-
It’s going to get weird
In there

The experience of my regrets
Endures my reparations-
It’s going to get tense
Out there

TBT: Catastrophizing (2001)

I walk on ashes
These stars were once mine
The fragile stems
Of my mind

I listen to crashes
These monsters were once myth
The raging fires
Of my kind

Better Hurry

Better hurry-
You’re starting to look different
Why do you look up to me
You are determined-
We are all thinking

Hold your fire-
You’re starting to get nervous
Why do you look down on me
You are classic-
We are all dreaming

TBT: Grace (2007)

Never the less impressed
I must express
Vast possibilities
To fill my dreams
The endless fight
To find what's right
Never to question
Your place in line

Never the less obsessed
I must confess
Too many days
Of empty feelings
The endless fight
To find my grace
Never to question
My place in time

Perspective (All The People)

I am
all the people
that have survived before me

Perspective, perspective
Come for me-
All the people

I am
all the nightmares
that have merrily bothered me

Perspective, perspective
Come for me-
All the nightmares

I am
all the blood
that has woefully spilled for me

Perspective, perspective
Come for me-
All the blood

TBT: Affliction (2002)

My hands, destiny
Like a game of chance
No regrets, just interruptions
My powers grow, when I'm bad
No regrets, just obstructions
Like a walk of fame
My hands, destiny

My eyes, surrender
Like a random rose
No sorrow, just adversity
My powers grow, when I'm evil
No sorrow, just agony
Like a fall from my kingdom
My eyes, surrender

(c) Marc Noël 2002
