|||
|
Verse 1
Once held back by doubts and fears
I didn’t know how to escape the life
where I’m constantly diminished
where I feel unnoticed, left behind
Pre-chorus
But then I heard a distant call
it said it’s time to change it all
you are much stronger than you think
go and become the one you wanna be
Chorus
Moving fast at the speed of light
a lightning bolt across the sky
My past is nothing but a burnout mark
My future’s bright like a shooting star
Verse 2
Now I’m free I have escaped
don’t try to pull me down again
You cannot catch what your eyes can’t see
And I’ll always be two steps ahead
Pre-chorus
‘cause when I heard that distant call
I knew that I could change it all
I know my powers lie within me
I’ll try and become the one I’m meant to be
Chorus
Moving fast at the speed of light
a lightning bolt across the sky
My past is nothing but a burnout mark
My future’s bright like a shooting star
Bridge
No more limits and warning signs
I have the freedom I always dreamed of
Each one of us will have to decide
whether to stay on the ground or to reach for the stars
Chorus
Moving fast at the speed of light
a lightning bolt across the sky
My past is nothing but a burnout mark
My future’s bright like a shooting star
I’m moving fast at the speed of light
the speed of light
I’m moving fast at the speed of light
the speed of light
yeah

We should seek to achieve something great
Something that makes our lives truly resonate
Something that leaves an imprint behind
A legacy that can keep on living through time
Chorus
Go leave your mark upon the world
This way you’ll never truly die
Your memory will live for long

Try making every moment count

Leave all the doubts and fears behind
Let everyone see what you can do
Let everyone see what you can do

Don’t waste your time on meaningless things
Take charge of your life and just do your best
Chase your dreams, accept what tomorrow brings
Embrace the journey to enjoy your rest
Chorus
Go leave your mark upon the world

Your memory will live for long

And let your actions speak for you
Leave all the doubts and fears behind
Let everyone see what you can do
Bridge 1
Let everything you've started carry on,
For the future to be built upon,
What you leave will last the test of time,
Echoing through the ages, forever sublime.
Make your mark while you're still here,
So that your memory never disappears,
Etch your name on the path you've paved,
And let it be forever saved.
Chorus
Go leave your mark upon the world
This way you’ll never truly die
Your memory will live for long
And your story will inspire
Try making every moment count
And let your actions speak for you
Leave all the doubts and fears behind
Let everyone see what you can do
Chorus outro
Let everything you’ve started carry on
For the future to be built upon
Make your mark while you’re still here
And your memory never disappears

Save Me From Fate
05:09
|
|||
|
Verse 1
In this realm of fate I’m all alone
Abandoned by the world that turned to stone.
Once hopeful, now I face the unknown,
Left to suffer, left to fight on my own
Oh
Chorus
Won’t you come and save me from this pain?
I need your guiding light to help me break these chains
Don’t let me fade away into the depths of my despair
Just give me a sign, show that someone still cares about me
Verse 2
Once I had dreams but they slipped away,
Faded like whispers, got lost in the fray.
But I'll chase their echoes through the night where they roam,
With your help I know I can weather any storm
Oh
Chorus
Won’t you come and save me from this pain?
I need your guiding light to help me break these chains
Don’t let me fade away into the depths of my despair
Just give me a sign, show that someone still cares about me
Bridge 2
Don't say it's over, don't let me down,
Don't turn away, I need you now.
I reach the edge, be the one who cares,
Tell me I’m not abandoned in the world so unfair.
Chorus
Won’t you come and save me from this pain?
I need your guiding light to help me break these chains
Don’t let me fade away into the depths of my despair
Just give me a sign, show that someone still cares
Won’t you come and save me from this pain?
I need your guiding light to help me break these chains
Don’t let me fade away into the depths of my despair
Just give me a sign, show that someone still cares about me

In This Life
04:24
|
|||
|
Verse 1
We’re so fragile
and we just don’t realise
that we are here only for a small fraction of time
we can’t stop running
be it from life or from ourselves
focusing on the insignificant things seeing everything in shades of grey
Pre-chorus
Maybe it’s time to stop relying on
some odd chance that there will be a change
The world is not gonna be your guardian
unless it sees that your part has been played
Imagine if tomorrow was your last day
would you find use for it or waste it again?
Or would you stand tall and just appreciate
all that you have and forget your pain?
Verse 2
We’re all equal
when we are given this life
it’s not like someone gets a head start and knows what’s wrong or right
There is a purpose
each one of us will have to find
And sometimes it takes longer than we’d like but it’s no reason to give up
Chorus
I know nothing lasts forever
but I am ready for whatever life throws my way
Let’s live, it’s now or never
And when the time comes there’ll be no regrets
Bridge
Yes there is an end
and a beginning
but there’s so much more in-between
let go of your sorrows
cause life is rewarding
and now it’s becoming so clear
Forget all your worries
and keep shifting focus
‘Till you find an answer inside
No one is perfect
we all have our demons
that we’ll have to face in this life
Chorus
I know nothing lasts forever
but I am ready for whatever life throws my way
Just live, it’s now or never
And when the time comes there’ll be no regrets

In Your Shadow
04:37
|
|||
|
Verse 1
It’s been forever since I saw the light
cause you always stand in front of me
and my days have felt like the darkest night
there’s no avoiding you it seems
I couldn’t move, I couldn’t breathe myself
cause it never felt as good as what you do
but if there’s anything that’s left of me
it needs to rise and be reborn
Chorus
But I know I’m more than a shadow
in the darkness made by you
You caused the light to disappear
from my life but I know I’ll get through
I swear I’ll find a better way
to prove that I belong
in the world where I mean more than you think
I won’t be left in this bitter cold
Verse 2
It doesn’t matter that you tried so hard
to block the sun from my eyes
All that I know is there’s no stopping me
cause there’s a flame that burns inside my heart
The flame that slowly dissolves the dark
and shows me how to be myself
I’m not depending on you anymore
you won’t eclipse my mind again
Verse 2 part 2
oh I’ve wanted to be free for so long
but couldn’t cause you blinded me
I started to believe I’d never be like you
that’s why I shouldn’t even try and get separate
Chorus
But I know I’m more than a shadow
in the darkness made by you
You caused the light to disappear
from my life but I know I’ll get through
I swear I’ll find a better way
to prove that I belong
in the world where I mean more than you think
I won’t be left in this bitter cold
Bridge
You’ve built so many walls around me
but I’ll see the light again
I’m smart enough to not fall for your lies
though everyone keeps thinking I will fail
No one knows me better than I do
my eyes have opened to the fact that I’m not like you
I have my own goals that I’ll pursue
and I won’t be anybody’s fool
Chorus
But I know I’m more than a shadow
in the darkness made by you
You caused the light to disappear
from my life but I know I’ll get through
I swear I’ll find a better way
to prove that I belong
in the world where I mean more than you think
I won’t be left in this bitter cold

Distance To Your Light
05:51
|
|||
|
Verse 1
Watching the night sky
I remember seeing her silhouette
and it felt so familiar
even though she was lightyears away
and I caught myself thinking
how do I get there, she’s out of reach
but there’s a sense of belonging
so my mind’s made up I need to leave.
Chorus
I see your light through the darkest of nights
I’m not afraid of the distance that’s separating me from you
I can not be by your side right now but I will try
to get to you and become whole again
Verse 2
I remember those moments
when I felt her light inside my heart
and that feeling was calming
‘cause I knew her presence was divine
still she’s drawing me closer
even though I know she’s far away
so I’ll continue my journey
even if I have to sacrifice everything
Chorus
I see your light through the darkest of nights
I’m not afraid of the distance that’s separating me from you
I can not be by your side right now but I will try
to get to you and become whole again
It hurts to know there’s so many miles between us two
But this pain is something that helps me go on
I feel that I’m getting stronger thinking of you
and I will reach your everlasting light
Bridge 1
It’s like I’m chasing a shadow in the dark
but you’re out there I can feel it and you’ll wait for me
you beckon me to go on and never stop
until I’m bathed in the rays of your shining light
Bridge 2
it has been so long
since I had a peaceful moment
my life feels like I’m running away
but I need to calm this worry
in my mind
and I’ll try to get to you as fast as I can
Chorus
I see your light through the darkest of nights
I’m not afraid of the distance that’s separating me from you
I can not be by your side right now but I will try
to get to you and become whole again
It hurts to know there’s so many miles between us two
But this pain is something that helps me go on
I feel that I’m getting stronger thinking of you
and I will reach your everlasting light

War Of The Mind
04:54
|
|||

Verse 1:
From the depths of my mind, a darkness emerges,
A foe that seeks to take control,
A wicked force that tries to submerge,
My thoughts and soul
Pre-Chorus 1:
I feel it creeping up on me,
Temptation that I can't ignore,
A battle that I must foresee,
I won't let it take me anymore.
Chorus:
This is a war against myself,
That I will fight with all my might,
To rid my mind of this uninvited guest,
And to take back what is rightfully mine.
Verse 2
I will battle the one I know so well cause
This enemy, it lies within me
A bitter rival who seeks to quell
My hopes and dreams.
Pre-Chorus 2:
I see the shadows lurking near,
A storm that's brewing deep inside,
But I will not succumb to fear,
I’m not the one who needs to run and hide
The battle rages on an on,
A struggle that will never end,
But I'll keep fighting, I won’t stop,
My very being I will defend.
Chorus:
This is a war against myself,
that I will fight with all my might,
To rid my mind of this uninvited guest,
And to take back what is rightfully mine.
Bridge:
No more threats that only I can hear,
Your voice will be forever silenced by me,
I won't compromise, I won't live in fear,
I'll take control of my mind with defiance.
I will take control
Chorus:
This is a war against myself,
that I will fight with all my might,
To rid my mind of this uninvited guest,
And to take back what is rightfully mine.
This is a battle that I must win,
I know my future is on the line,
I'll fight the enemy within,
I’ll win and leave it all behind

Light Of My Life

|
Verse 1
I watch you standing there
lost in your own despair
You’ve got so much ahead of you
but you falter
I’ve come to share a simple thought
remember battles that you’ve fought
embrace your past mistakes but keep going forward
Pre-chorus
Don’t believe the lies
that are clouding your mind
You can reach the heights that you dream of
Chorus
Let me stand by your side
as your fire reignites
In your thoughts, don’t let the darkness reside
I will be your light
in the journey through the night
Don’t deny yourself the power inside
Verse 2
I know you have your doubts
Wish you could see through my eyes,
see the greatness that you just keep hiding
So let me tell you one small thing,
you make me strong when I grow weak,
you can be so much more than you choose to be now
Pre-chorus
Don’t believe the lies
that just keep you confined
You can choose your path if you wish to

as your fire reignites
In your thoughts, don’t let the darkness reside
I will be your light
in the journey through the night
Don’t deny yourself the power inside

Deep within your being
let the walls come crashing down
I know that you believe it
So you’re gonna go make yourself proud
Trust in what you’re doing
Don’t hesitate, take a step
I will be here for you
But it is your choice, do you understand?
Bridge 2
Oh the world awaits you
(awaits you)
Oh the world awaits you
(awaits you)
Oh the world awaits you
(bring your dreams into it)
Oh the world awaits you
(awaits you)
Chorus
Let me stand by your side
as your fire reignites
In your thoughts, don’t let the darkness reside
I will be your light
in the journey through the night
Don’t deny yourself the power inside
Ohh the power inside
Ohh the light of my life
Ohh the power inside
Ohh the light of my life

World Of Change
10:06
|
|||
|
Verse 1
Every day I wake up
and I feel something’s wrong
like I don’t belong to myself anymore
I’m just getting so tired
of going against the flow
but I can’t let the world
turn me into something I’m not
Pre-chorus
I’m like a twig in the wind
trying to keep my integrity
(while fighting this pressure from within)
it’s all so fast I can’t move
but I can’t wait till it all crushes me
(I need to get out before I get lost)
Chorus
I can’t lose control
or I’ll become a prisoner of this world of change
I’ll make the final stand and let the voice of truth
remind me of who I am
Verse 2
Every night when I sleep
I feel restless and weak
cause if I just give in I know my life will be bleak
I keep holding this weight
of the entire world
and it’s taking its toll,I can feel that I’m taking the fall
Pre-chorus
I’m like a twig in the wind
trying to keep my integrity
(while fighting this pressure from within)
it’s all so fast I can’t move
but I can’t wait till it all crushes me
(I need to get out before I get lost)
Chorus
I can’t lose control
or I’ll become a prisoner of this world of change
I’ll make the final stand and let the voice of truth
remind me of who I am
All that I’ve become
I won’t let it die in vain or get thrown away
I have to rise above
and try to keep my pace, I won’t be led astray
Bridge part 1
I’ll be strong in the face
of the change that’s coming
I won’t fail, I won’t break
‘cause I’m in control now
I’ll be strong in the face
of the change that’s coming
I won’t fail cause I’m in control
Bridge part 2
we can’t always keep up with everything this world offers
so we better unite and make the changes ourselves
we have to trust each other and help those who seem to falter
build ourselves up from scratch and not succumb to this world of change
Alt verse
I’m just feeling so tired
but I can’t let the world
turn me into something I’m not
Chorus
I can’t lose control
or I’ll become a prisoner of this world of change
I’ll make the final stand and let the voice of truth
remind me of who I am
All that I have become
I won’t let it die in vain or get thrown away
I have to rise above
and try to keep my pace, I won’t be led astray

Polaris

|
Verse 1
it’s a shame we can’t relive some moments from the past
when we weren’t sure how to react and ended up hurting ourselves
maybe if I took a different turn I would become somebody else
and I wouldn’t have said and done the things I might now regret
Chorus
Cause everyone makes their own mistakes, it’s how we learn (it's how we learn)
but you can choose to listen to my story (take what I offer)
Your future is still yet to come and I can save you from all the pain
So let me help you get the life that you deserve
Verse 2
I hope I’ll be forgiven for the things that I’ve done wrong
At least now I can share this lesson with you, my friend (share this lesson with you)
And all I ask from you is that you try and not forget these words (don't forget these words),
these words of wisdom that I have shared
Chorus
Cause everyone makes their own mistakes, it’s how we learn (it's how we learn)
but you can choose to listen to my story (take what I offer)
Your future is still yet to come and I can save you from all the pain
So let me help you get the life that you deserve
I’ve dreamed of this day for so long, tonight I sing this song
for everyone who’s lost to find their path
I might be a fallen star but you’re the rising sun
So let me guide you through the dark (guide you through the dark)
Bridge
I sing for everyone to find their way
for those who need to find their home
I speak from my experience so don’t turn away
you’ll find a place where you belong
a place where you belong
Chorus
Cause everyone makes their own mistakes, it’s how we learn (it's how we learn)
but you can choose to listen to my story (take what I offer)
Your future is still yet to come and I can save you from all the pain
So let me help you get the life that you deserve
We’ve dreamed of this day for so long, tonight we sing this song
(I’ve dreamed of this day for so long)
for everyone who’s lost to find their path
(For everyone who’s lost, who’s lost their path)
You might be a fallen star but we’re the rising sun
(I might be a fallen star, but you’re the rising sun)
So guide us through the dark
(I’ll guide you, guide you, guide you through the dark)
I’ll guide you through the dark
Through the dark

by NONE
supported by 8 fans who also own “Polaris”
On ne frappe pas un homme à terre : c'est ce que dit la règle mais NONE a déjà prouvé qu'il ne les suivait pas et si son album éponyme retirait toute perspective de béatitude spirituelle, Life has gone on long enough, son deuxième opus, nous interdit l'accès au bonheur terrestre. La vie n'a aucune substance et la production plus distante le confirme. Le DSBM s'empare de textures sonores blues, mettant en relief une dépression urbaine. Les cris partent en fumées : ne restent que les pleurs...
