Lyrics: (paroles en français juste après!) Underneath the weight of all these shoulds and musts Lies the space we’ve been dreaming of Dive in deep and you will find An ocean of silence within your mind Underneath it all Underneath a cold heart lies some love Underneath a fist lies a hug Underneath aggression lies some pain Underneath our skin we are all the same Underneath it all, you will find Underneath confusion the way is clear Underneath greed there is fear Behind their mask they wish you’d come near Underneath their appearance people care If we weren’t so afraid we would share If we cut through the mess we would be aware Underneath it all We would find If we only tried Paroles: En dessous de tous ces ‘’je devrais’’ et ‘’je dois’’ Se trouve l’espace auquel on rêve Plonge dans les profondeurs et tu trouveras Un océan de silence dans ton esprit En dessous de tout ça En dessous d’un cœur froid se trouve l’amour En dessous d’un poing se trouve une accolade En dessous de l’agression se trouve la douleur En dessous de la peau on est tous pareils En dessous de tout ça, tu trouveras En dessous de la confusion le chemin est clair En dessous de l’avarice se trouve la peur Derrière leur masque les gens espèrent que tu te rapproches En dessous de leur apparence les gens se soucient (des autres, de la terre, etc..) Si on n’avait pas si peur on partagerait Si on coupait au travers de ce non-sens on serait conscient que En dessous de tout ça On trouverait ... Si seulement on cherchait

Simplicity 03:56
Simplicity, simplicity Where have you left me? Where have you gone? I’m stuck in this hole that I dug on my own So frantic and senseless, so far from you I don’t know what to do Are you out in the mountains Far from this half-heartfelt life? Or are you still right here Right behind the clouds shining bright? This is not how I wanted this to be like but I keep on living lies Simplicity, simplicity where have you gone? Simplicity, simplicity I’ve been searching so long Are you out in the mountains Far from this half-heartfelt life? Or are you still right here Right behind the clouds shining bright? This is not how I wanted this to be like but I keep on living lies Every mountain will slowly wash away Paroles: Simplicité, simplicité Où m’as tu laissé? Où es-tu partie? Je suis pris dans un trou que j’ai creusé moi-même Si frénétique et confus Si loin de toi je ne sais pas quoi faire Es-tu à quelque part dans les montagnes Loin de cette vie à moitié ressentie Ou es-tu juste derrière les nuages entrain de briller Ce n’est pas comme ça que je voulais que ce soit Mais je continue à vivre des mensonges Simplicité, simplicité ou es-tu partie? Simplicité, simplicité ça fait si longtemps que je cherche Es-tu à quelque part dans les montagnes Loin de cette vie à moitié ressentie Ou es-tu juste derrière les nuages entrain de briller Ce n’est pas comme ça que je voulais que ce soit Mais je continue à vivre des mensonges Chaque montagne disparait avec le temps

Daddy you died (free) 03:35
Daddy you died and I didn’t cry I guess I was lost and afraid and mixed up on inside How could I grasp what was going on But I sure as hell felt the pain for someone so young For someone so young I felt scared and empty like life was cold and grey For someone so young I felt scared and empty like life was cold and grey Daddy you died and I don’t know why What was I supposed to do in my little mind I felt all alone stuck in this new place Forced to move, go to school and had no say Fear is what fed me, it tucked me in and said “good night” For someone so young I felt scared and empty like life was cold and grey For someone so young I had so much anger my heart had choked with pain Although I will not give in The scar weighs on my soul And all I want from living Is something to fill the hole I know that I can find it Hope is the only road I’m on this path for both of us And all who suffer in this world Daddy you died and I didn’t cry But it’s left its mark on me there’s no denying What should I make of living with so much sadness around When you can lose your friends, your family, your home and your town For someone so young I felt scared and empty like life was cold and grey But that’s the picture I have painted And it’s the one I’ve carried with me up to this day Daddy you died and I didn’t cry
