about

You fuckers didn't kill me.

lyrics

There's a hole in the middle of the sand
There's a voice among the waves in my head
But I can't see any sea in front of me, no
Only this hole begging me to feed it with black sand
Hey you, would you like more black sand ?

Before I disappear entirely into you

Liars light dead fires
I can feel them on my shoulders

I cannot erase what I used to chase but
When you invade me, I escape to the complete lands

Black sand, overfed, I think she's pregnant of a son called « void »
Give birth to a zero, give birth to me
Black sand, overfed, I think she's pregnant of a hole called « love »
Give birth to a zero, give birth to me

There's a crak in the middle of my hand
There's a wind blowing against the current
Everyday they point their finger at me saying
She is an alien
I can still hear you begging me to feed you with black sand
And I ask honey would you like more black sand ?
Before death grows into wild weeds and seperate us

Ghosts shoot at hopes
Like crazy birds on a plane
I cannot erase what I used to chase but
We would hold hands and go to the complete lands

(chorus)

All along the no man's land, there's a peaceful place,
A piece of paradise,
And we could watch
Our children smile, rise, laugh and dance
To the halo of our grace

To the halo of our grace (…)
And freedom
