Amor fati Love so sweet and pure keeping me assured Pour your love, secure Make believe i'm cured Omens of your love keeping me assured Taking some time making me secure Laying out your thoughts Late at night, under light Give up the fight, we can make it through Maybe w’ill part, I don't have a clue Keeping us alive, in the game, where it’s bright I’ll be warm and lure, for sure Rest your mind, endure Pour your love, secure make believe i'm cured

Isha (Woman) – English Translation Deep, deep down Beside a vanished dream A girl’s soul fades into a quiet sleep She reappears as Woman Surging from the water And waiting for two. A small knight within her, Handsome, with out doubt, Was born black Like chocolate, And eaten by a woman who thought he was a sweet. Deep, deep down Beside a vanished dream A girl’s soul fades away.

Princeless Midnight chimes The dance is done The masks are off My slipper’s lost On my pumpkin I’m waiting I reminisce The trembling steps of our first dance in light of spring As my heart recalls Our time in awe I know I was the princess of your dream It’s cold It’s late And I’m waiting In the depth of night My bare foot swoons Slowly Empty Silence Blows my mind Scorching ringing sears my brain Seeping cold within my soul On my pumpkin… here alone Why do I wait? The night is done, sweet love, Time dances on We lost the game The princess run away The prince is a frog again A new day dawns As I walk away My glass slipper left behind

Go now Go now, go slow, reach for the shore. Mind your own road. There's no place for you believing in some faith, we are young but soon to break. Keeping distance from ourselves, side by side but not too close and… go slow. Go now, go slow, reach for the shore. Mind your own road. There's no place for promises and empty dreams, push me so that i could scream! Angry, furious and mean, loosing temper over him and… go slow.

Old world Old world, here's what's going on: kids start having fun alone. No more running around, clicking on the screen outdoors. Music doesn't have a style, hunters don't use their hands. Keeping the illusions for a while, leaning on what you're told. Old world, pieces slowly blow, blindness doesn't go no more. Warm flow is starting to grow, this is how it should be done. No one cares if this is right, don't we have a right to fight? Leave our children to be bright, give us a chance to run. Old men, settling for so low, try to manage hayer rate. Explode different ways of fraud, manage all your mind.

Ibud Ha’tmimout (Loss of Innocence) – English Translation Loose shirt Tight hair Every hair in place Hide round body Not well designed So far to go Briskly walking Foot could enter Short dress Wild hair Bright lipstick Strange heel Loss of Innocence A two-day thing Blurred adolescence Heaven decision Everything in then out Quick gallop The environment knows No point to break Mental Convention Inner Calm

Peter (French) Au carreau, Peter a tapé, mais les quarts d'heure, les jours et les années m'ont rattrapé. Pour une poignée de poudre d'escampette, quitter le tic tac, j'irais défier les tempêtes. Les enfants perdus dans les méandres du temps ont préféré s'envoler plutôt que vendre du vent. Au crochet du rationnel, sont déposées mes ailes. Peter, je veux redevenir ta demoiselle. Peter (English) Peter just tapped at my window, While quarters of hours, days and years swirl about me. With a cloud of dust at my heals, I turn my back on the ticktack, as I go out to brave my storms. Children lost in the labyrinth of Time, We wanted to fly off, not to peddle empty dreams. Now I’ve hung up my wings on Reason’s rack, Peter, I want to be your Lady, take me back.

Song of love Song of love, song of mind, song of hate, ‘cause you are blind. One more time, see my sign, meet me there, in my own time. My oh my, what should i reply, love is there, but clouds are behind. Song of love, song of mind, song of hate, ‘cause we are blind. Song of love, song of mind, one song of hate, we're out of our minds. One more time, see my sign, meet me there, in my own time.

Bachour meshouamam (A Bored boy) - Hebrew translation I love life, but want to die, I like people, but love my solitude, I’m angry at the world, but with me, everything is fine. I’m a bored boy, just a bored boy. I am a sick child in a grown up body. I predict the future but am not waiting for tomorrow. I am the greatest of ‘em all. I am a bored boy. I am a bored boy, just a bored boy. I'm tired of living a life of misunderstandings. The pieces of lies are rising like mice. You cannot act like Dr. Jekyll the rat, don't be afraid to love the human race. I love all that is beauty, but I am tired of being. I’m a boy of no character and don’t care about the end. So why am I the only one who notices? Why don’t I feel a sensation called pain? I am unique, crazy and special. Just a bored boy. Arabic translation I need a shrink. Excuse me? What? Do you want me to say it, then okay, I’m a ghoul. I don’t mind dying. We die everyday and no one cares. Fucked up way of life! If love hasn’t been buried, it has been pushed aside. What’s out there, what’s left, sons of fucks, what is it? People don’t care about each other any more, some destroy, others expatriate and the rest simply immigrate. Blah, blah, blah. No reform is going on, but every one is filming. Every day looks the same. Our thinking is old and frozen. For every exit there is a door, but it isn’t logical anymore. There is no door yet there is a key but the road to the door is imprisoned. This logic and I are hopeless… but we carry on and will keep on doing it. It is worse today not doubt… I don’t wonder anymore… and that surprises me. I don’t know what it is with me, shall I cry or laugh at me.

In my head Tears from where? They go out there. In my head, I'm rich beyond despair. Once from there, I'm here, where i stay. With or without you to share, silence is in the air. In my head… In my head I'm strong, as days go by i feel that evermore. My heart belongs to this home, i cannot deny it anymore. In my head… In my head it's getting clear, the oceans and the winds also agree. Leave my heart to live where it may be. Home is now a place i want to be.
