Lyrics of the week
It’s four in the afternoon
I’m on a flight leaving L.A.
Trying to think about my life
My youth scattered along the highway
Hotel rooms and headlights
I’ve made a living with a song
Guitar as my companion
Wanting desperately to belong
Fame is filled with spoiled children
They grow fat on fantasy
I guess that’s why I’m leaving
I crave reality
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
I did not find paradise
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting
What was missing in my life
I’m embarassed to say the rest is rock and roll cliche
I hit the bottom when I reached the top
I never knew it was you who was breaking my heart
I thought you had to love me
You did not
Yes a heart can hallucinate
If it’s completely starved for love
It can even turn monsters into angels from above
You forged my love like a weapon
And turned it against me like a knife
You broke my last heartstring
But you opened up my eyes
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
That was not love in your eyes
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind searching
What’s beenmissing in my life
Growing up is not the absence of dreaming
It’s being able to understand the difference between
The ones you can hold and the ones that you’ve been sold
Dreaming is a good thing cause it brings new things to life
But pretending is an ending that perpetuates a lie
Forgetting what you are, seeing for what you’ve been told
Truth is stranger than fiction
And this is my chance to get it right
Life is much better without all of your pretty lies
So Goodbye Alice in Wonderland
You can keep your yellow brick road
Cause there is a difference between dreaming and pretending
These are not tears in my eyes
They are only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting
They are only a reflection of my lonely mind wishing
I found what’s missing in my life
Pour le clip c’est par là que ça se passe >>>

Come Back !
Les déclarations se multiplient sur internet, les rumeurs enflent comme avant chaque sortie d’un cd programmé… On le dit mort, fini …. Et pourtant a priori il reste une personnalité recherchée sur le net (134.000.000 pages sur Google contre 84 pour Madonna!)…
Lyrics of the week
The road I’m taking
If you meet me on the way
Hesitating
That is just because I know which way I will choose
The corridors of discontent
That I’ve been traveling
All alone in search for truth
The world’s so frightning
Nothing’s going right today
‘Cos nothing ever does
Oooh, I don’t wanna know your secrets
Oooh, they lie heavy on my head
Oooh, let’s break the night with colour
Time for me to move ahead
Monday morning coming down
like understanding
Mama thinks you are the ground
Looking so frightning
Nothing’s going right today
‘Cos nothing ever does
Oooh, I don’t wanna know your secrets
Oooh, they lie heavy on my head
Time for me to break my cover
Time for me to move ahead
Been givin’ up
You will come again
Been givin’ up
You will come again
Oooh, I don’t wanna know your secrets
Oooh, they lie heavy on my head
Oooh, let’s break the night with colour
Time for us to move ahead
Oooh, I don’t wanna know your secrets
Oooh, they lie heavy on my head
Oooh, let’s break the night with colour
Time for me to move ahead
