Slaves To Gravity

lyrics

Frozen, frozen place in space. Prison, prison of his face
Shooting star, shining star, rockets fly into the sky
We cannot count the time

The priest goes, after the dawn,
His sightless eyes full of foam, aliens and thunderbolts

Some days, all the planets wait for me
I'm a fool : 'til now, I've failed to leave the ground, as always

Out of space, veils of sense
Hiding place, black hole vales
The horizon dies, they’re far away
I want to stay

Some days, all the planets wait for me
I'm a fool : 'til now, I've failed to leave the ground, as always
Sometimes they follow the flaming way
To their grace, and right as rain

Now the Earth sweeps away the past,
But innocence is nowhere to be found
An asteroid swarm, crashed in the sky
The universe falls in our arms

Far away, lost highway, starry lights, black as night

It’s time to talk about the meaning of life
‘Cause in end, people never lie

What are we? Clouds, clouds and souls
What are we? Slaves to gravity
So tell me what is better on the other side?

about

Alta Marea Metz, France

Formation éparpillée dans le grand-est français et très polyvalente dans ses ambiances. On y trouve un peu d'emo-punk, du rock survolté, quelques accents post-rock, un zeste de math et une louchée de prog.
