Le mas des alouettes

Xavier-Aurélien Racine, 11/20/2022

“-Arkan, ou es-tu?

Arkan,

Regarde cette glace.

Tu pourrais la prendre pour notre chambre.

Je la veux, cette glace.

Et le piano,

Tes soldats pourraient l’emporter.

-Mais non, elle a trop bu. Elle venait pour notre fête.

Mais…

Penser ainsi offense notre invitée

Rejoins nos amis, je reste avec elle.

-Le général…”

Pablo Tivani, Vittorio Tavani

I Griev

It was only one hour ago
It was all so different then
Nothing yet has really sunk in
Looks like it always did
This flesh and bone
It’s just the way that we had tied in
Now there’s no-one home

I grieve for you
You leave me
So hard to move on
Still loving what’s gone
They say life carries on
Carries on and on and on and on

The news that truly shocks is the empty, empty page
While the final rattle rocks its empty, empty cage
And I can’t handle this

I grieve for you
You leave me
Let it out and move on
Missing what’s gone
They say life carries on
They say life carries on and on and on

Life carries on
In the people I meet
In everyone that’s out on the street
In all the dogs and cats
In the flies and rats
In the rot and the rust
In the ashes and the dust
Life carries on and on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on

It’s just the car that we ride in
A home we reside in
The face that we hide in
The way we are tied in
As life carries on and on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on

Did I dream this belief?
Or did I believe this dream?
Now I can find relief
I grieve

More Than This

Xavier-Aurélien Racine, 28/09/2022

I woke up and the world outside was dark
All so quiet before the dawn
Opened up the door and walked outside
The ground was cold
I walked until I couldn’t walk anymore
To a place I’d never been
There was something stirring in the air
In front of me, I could see

More than this
More than this
So much more than this
There is something else there
When all that you had has all gone
And more than this
I stand
Feeling so connected
And I’m all there
Right next to you

It started when I saw the ship go down
I saw them struggle in the sea
And suddenly the picture disappears
In front of me
Now we’re busy making all our busy plans
On foundations built to last
But nothing fades as fast as the future
And nothing clings like the past, until we can see

More than this
More than this
So much more than this
There is something out there
More than this
It’s coming through
And more than this
I stand alone and so connected
And I’m all there
Right next to you

Oh then it’s alright
When with every day another bit falls away
Oh but it’s still alright, alright, alright
And like words together we can make some sense
Much more than this
Way beyond imagination
Much more than this
Beyond the stars
With my head so full
So full of fractured pictures
And I’m all there
Right next to you
So much more than this
There is something else there
When all that you had has all gone
And more than this
I’m alone
Feeling so connected
And I’m all there right next to you
