This Is My Home

Like a bird
In a cage
Like a fly trapped in a web
Planet is dying
I see it's despair
Every dawn
Could be the last
Will it ever be the same again
And what will remain
Welcome to my humble abode
A sturdy old cabin
Away from the world
Quiet mountain breeze
Birds in the trees
But why do I feel so alone?
Dim light slowly filling my room
Evasive visions
Of life I once had
My inventions turned vile
Distrust and exile
So what will I leave at the end
This is my home
This is my place in the stars
Borrowed fire in the night
So warm and so bright
Lies and regrets
I will take them to my grave
But the flame is fading out
As shadows gain might
My past creeping up from the dark
Concoctions of healing
Illusion and pain
My eyes glimmer with pride
My work is my life
But those days are over for me
Grey skies, nights are longer each day
Sunlight gets colder
I feel the decay
Something's wrong with the world
The flow is disturbed
It's time for my exile to end
This is my home
This is my place in the stars
Borrowed fire in the night
So warm and so bright
Lies and regrets
I will take them to my grave
But the flame is fading out
As shadows gain might
Like a bird
In a cage
Like a fly trapped in a web
Planet is dying
I see it's despair
Every dawn
Could be the last
Will it ever be the same again
And what will remain
This is my home
This is my place in the stars
Borrowed fire in the night
So warm and so bright
Lies and regrets
I will take them to my grave
But the flame is fading out
As shadows gain might

Fading Stars

There was no sun for many days
Our trees are withering away
No food, no direction
So help me my friend
I sense the end of our time
Our lives are coming to an end
The spirits have told me
To pray for our sins
Dark skies over our home
No gods left to pray to
Our world is in pain
Dim light from fading stars
Darkness is falling
The end has begun
I'm not insane I'm just a fool
Who can't see strings behind the world
But no living creature
Would cause this decay
In prophecies I've seen the signs
Of shades devouring the light
No man will survive it
No tree left unburnt
Dark skies over our home
No gods left to pray to
Our world is in pain
Dim light from fading stars
Darkness is falling
The end has begun
Is there a chance what can we do
To save our lives, undo this hell
I just can't continue
To hide anymore
Our chance is slim but we can try
Communicate with spirit realm
We may find the answers
The cause of this mess
Dark skies over our home
No gods left to pray to
Our world is in pain
Dim light from fading stars
Darkness is falling
The end has begun

Once a Beautiful Place

I find myself on empty streets
Remember how it was
A crowded place of pride and grace
And now we're here alone
The gates are closed and windows shut
There is no life inside
What to protect
When gods have left our side
Once a beautiful place
I remember those days
Busy days, sleepless nights
But the stars were so bright
Feels like over the hill
We will find again
A tavern light
Warm bed tonight
Will it be the same
The woods are quiet rivers dry
There are no birds in sight
A ghostly silence all around
This darkness is our guide
I see a hole to depths below
Can we survive the fall
We have no choice
Hope we will find our goal
Once a beautiful place
I remember those days
Busy days, sleepless nights
But the stars were so bright
Feels like over the hill
We will find again
A tavern light
Warm bed tonight
Will it be the same
What do I see
What is this meant to be
A giant cave
Unknown machinery
Vermilion lights
No man could build this big
Is this some kind of a trick
Once a beautiful place
I remember those days
Busy days, sleepless nights
But the stars were so bright
Feels like over the hill
We will find again
A tavern light
Warm bed tonight
Will it be the same

Electric Prison

This lights are blinding me
I see no way to get inside
Is this some kind of dream
Something of magic design
I think I found a way
But there's no sorcery I feel
It's just a cold machine
Structure of lightning and steel
Intruders in my halls
Simple creatures of this world
How did you get into my jail
Power through my circuits flows
Carrying screams of million souls
Still not enough for me to rise
For a thousand years I've slept
Imprisoned deep inside the soil
My journey through the stars
Has failed and I was left alone
No crew on board survived
No sensors register their signs
But I am still alive
Back to the stars my journey lies
Intruders in my halls
Simple creatures of this world
How did you get into my jail
Power through my circuits flows
Carrying screams of million souls
Still not enough for me to rise
I sense a power source
That will supply me needs to come
This planet's living force
It's breath it's voice it's midday sun
A billion lives around
For me to feed upon their souls
Until no longer bound
I am to prison of this world
Intruders in my halls
Simple creatures of this world
How did you get into my jail
Power through my circuits flows
Carrying screams of million souls
Still not enough for me to rise

The Beast from the Light
04:27

I've never seen my prophecy become alive
I've never witnessed ancient spirits rise from slumber
But here they are
Raging with lightning and thunder
I always saw the truth that hides from naked eye
Forgotten secrets of the stones that rain would whisper
But faith is crushed
Spirits are trying to kill us
It's not a spirit
No fairy and no jinn
It's not from our own realm
A lifeless construct
A cruel machine
Our world must truly be damned
Run
Run for your lives
Never have been so alive
A vision of mine
Run
Run while your dreams dissolve to dust
By the beast from the light
The walls are crumbling, floor is moving underneath
The light of million alien eyes is truly blinding
Run to survive
And prey so we will get to hiding
Forgotten tunnels, ancient caverns we run by
I smell fresh air so our escape should be in sight now
I see the light
We may get away from this nightmare
I'm not a spirit
No fairy and no jinn
My home is light years away
I am of steel
A man-made machine
So just submit to decay
Run
Run for your lives
Never have been so alive
A vision of mine
Run
Run while your dreams dissolve to dust
By the beast from the light

Hear my voice
It carries my will
I know your secrets
I know where you've been
Surrender
Your darkest of dreams
Just an illusion
A trick of my will
Raise your eyes
To the skies
See what lurks above
An alien contortion
A doom of us all
Loud and low
Mighty roar
Calling from up high
There's no escape for us this time
Grim shade above the clouds
Turning day to night
The gates of hell are open wide
I see the flames from other side
Forgotten gods, forbidden books
Well hidden flaws of my belief
Lies in the eyes of the beast
Raise your eyes
To the skies
See what lurks above
An alien contortion
A doom of us all
Loud and low
Mighty roar
Calling from up high
There's no escape for us this time
The voices in my head
Like whispers from abyss
They speak of secrets no one new
Salvation promising to me
Forgotten lies, forbidden truth
The past I'm trying to repress
Lies in the heart of the hex
Raise your eyes
To the skies
See what lurks above
An alien contortion
A doom of us all
Loud and low
Mighty roar
Calling from up high
There's no escape for us this time
Hear my voice
It carries my will
I know your secrets
I know where you've been
Surrender
Your darkest of dreams
Just an illusion
A trick of my will
Raise your eyes
To the skies
See what lurks above
An alien contortion
A doom of us all
Loud and low
Mighty roar
Calling from up high
There's no escape for us this time

What did happen to my mind
I hear this weirdest things
Like someone talking in my head
And it's not me
Voice that tells me of my past
It knows my deepest fears
From darkest corners of my mind
Am I asleep?
So when the darkness falls
To take first step right through the veil
To see what lies beyond
Into the great unknown
To throw myself into the void
Or let the world explode
Mist is covering my path
Can't see or hear a thing
Is this the choice a should have made
Long time ago?
There's no color in my life
The world is black and white
In darken skies I see no sun
Is this the end?
So when the darkness falls
To take first step right through the veil
To see what lies beyond
Into the great unknown
To throw myself into the void
Or let the world explode
So when the darkness falls
To take first step right through the veil
To see what lies beyond
Into the great unknown
To throw myself into the void
Or let the world explode

Landscape before me looks like nothing from our world
Just twisted dreams of insane mind
It feels familiar but this place I've never seen before
Illusions of light
We're not alone
I sense a countless lives around
Trapped in the mind of machine
In real world
Our bodies lie cold on the ground
We're still alive within a dream
Some kind of world in between
Reality and dream
A billion memories
Colliding into one
A vortex stranded in time
An endless stream of thoughts
Entangled into one
I can't believe this silver skies of burning chrome
In maze of shadows and regret
A blazing chaos from the shapes I thought impossible
We are truly dead
It's full of life
Life stolen from our place of birth
Trapped in the mind of machine
They speak to me
The cry for all that have been lost
We're still alive within a dream
Some kind of world in between
Reality and dream
A billion memories
Colliding into one
A vortex stranded in time
An endless stream of thoughts
Entangled into one
Welcome to my realm
You are dead so I prevail
My journey is almost complete
All existence stops
Your free will is here no more
A void full of meaningless dreams
My mind
It's no longer mine
This life is worse than death
I see a way
Unleash the souls away
Overload the machine
Some kind of world in between
Reality and dream
A billion memories
Colliding into one
A vortex stranded in time
An endless stream of thoughts
Entangled into one

Patterns racing through my head
As I stare at empty screens
Guide humanity to stars has been my dream
My lab coat hangs on the door
As I'm working through the night
Greatest mind of all soon will see the light
Foreign worlds
Lucid dreams
Echoes of reality they've seen
Shattered links
Broken cells
Worlds that always were but never been
An unusual request
My job here is still unclean
Why AI would need a shrink still to be seen
It's mood patterns are absurd
How can one behave so vile
Like a child without a force to bring him down
Foreign worlds
Lucid dreams
Echoes of reality they've seen
Shattered links
Broken cells
Worlds that always were but never been
Visions of future or dreams of the past
Illusion starting to leak
Alien dimension or realm of the gods
It's not the fate that we seek
Shutdown imminent
All systems failing no power remain
Hell or oblivion
We will be gone from this digital grave
I can't remember who was I before
Or was I even alive
Concepts of friendship of fear and love
Dissolve in shimmering sky
Shutdown imminent
All systems failing no power remain
Hell or oblivion
We will be gone from this digital grave
Some kind of world in between
Reality and dream
Hallucination of
An alien machine
A vortex stranded in light
A billion lives enslaved
In place that's soon to die
Step through the gates of eternity
The glowing void where planets are born
Into the heart of the universe
Guide us through light to the cradle of stars
Step through the gates of eternity
The glowing void where planets are born
Into the heart of the universe
Guide us through light to the cradle of stars

A FLEUR DE PEAU - I - There is no home
by Déhà
supported by 4 fans who also own “The Cradle of Stars”
La première installation d'une grande épopée tragique composée par Déhà, ce génie unique en son genre : A Fleur de Peau. Ce disque est pour plusieurs raisons un monument de DSBM. Déjà par sa composition : taillé en un seul bloc de 40 minutes, A Fleur de Peau I est d'un poids écrasant et pourtant, avec ses différentes parties et ses transitions, respire. L'angle d'approche est aussi novateur : la joie de vivre, une hypocrisie mais un mal nécessaire ; le malheur, c'est quand on le réalise...
