lyrics
take my hand and hold it strong. (hold it strong)
cause we're marching fast.
let's watch up for a bad curve.
not to take this path. take this path.
We've opened
a window.
and we broke the glass.
we have come this far, dear.
I do not believe it myself.
---
So I'm gonna watch it through your eyes.
on top of everything we are. think over
all the fluttering flags.
be sure we will met here next year.
and every years beyond this year. thinking higher.
up there.
all is flattering high.
---
And every word that we say is a promise.
because we hold the rope really tight.
I know you care. I know you are.
cause that's the reason i care.
health is gesture. like turning nails.
on stones we want leave behind.
Let's see how strong we are.
There will be
some nights to pass.
---
and every word
that we say is a promise.
And some days too.
i'll be there for anyone.
At Your side let me be.
to see
you rise,
in this light.
do me this favour :
Let's sing along
the thing
we are.
the sweetest hymn
again and again.
---
that one we used to rage on.
the remembering of the first glass we broke.
And so, you hear
The sounds of violence we do
to maintain our bodies simply loved. and crystal clear.
that song we used to rage on.
the vision of the first glass we broke.
The sounds of violence we do
to maintain our bodies crystal clear.

In loving memory of Maud Ibanez and Valery Dehu, who've decided to climb to higher skies
Hearing the songs while reading the narrative behind the lyrics, I felt overwhelmed by this tragic story in which humans and artificial intelligence couldn't coexist side by side. Their reciprocal annihilation was inevitable. Except one "sole survivor, in a ship filled with memories. She had become the proof of Earth, proof that life had existed there, a voice for all the species and beauty we once knew". A dystopian concept dressed up in brilliant musicianship! @Slevin, thanks, I owe it to you! Umbra Cornuta
