Poesy Rider Bon, alors, j'ai une bonne et une mauvaise nouvelle : la mauvaise est que Tool n'a pas donné signe de vie depuis bien longtemps ; la bonne est qu'il y a des groupes comme DCF pour reprendre le flambeau...et autre bonne nouvelle, ils s'en inspirent beaucoup sans pour autant se livrer à l'imitation pure et dure. Sinon, quoi de neuf ? Favorite track: 08 Threnody.

Progmetalhero One of the most complete debuts in years. Very Toolish without being mere copycats, ... Favorite track: 06 The King and The Bishop.

[Extending the passage of time but this time we will not be saved] Concious of such callousness Aware of our own core chaos Bearing our teeth as we reach a new level of Gods (I’m) Constantly telling myself that it’s nothing getting myself into this Chasing moments We can find the time The grinder is feeding the monkey but now he is filled with the shame Extending the passage of time but this time we will not be saved (I’m) Constantly fighting myself ‘cause it’s something to make myself feel this. I’m- Chasing moments We Can’t find the time My God please just keep us Out of sight, out of mind Feed the weak and hide the blind (She’s still here. I breath in) Tell the null, tell the sky Preach her word, tell us why (I need you) Rise against the world that set you with a soul Dwell in darkness we congress so flawlessly through the cold You’re constantly begging me making me Lifeless for the long way down Chasing moments We Can’t find the time My God please just keep us Out of sight, out of mind Feed the weak and hide the blind (She’s still here. I breath in) Tell the null, tell the sky Preach her word, tell us why (I need you) She dances with kings while he lays through the soil he crawls And she curses his name like she spat on his face like she stepped on his grave Sometimes we crash and burn little tin soldiers who can’t return Selling mass murder with what we’ve learned filling the holes with shovels that cannot turn the earth Earthquakes and pseudo-sextapes Get inside the headaches as they try to escape cremating satan watching re-runs roll on all the ad breaks Lady liberty cries as we whore her out In the rain they say his soul remains be ridden alone and every now and then he’s seen below There’s someone moving fleeing light the son who never shined son without a shrine THROUGH THE SOIL I.

Why do you pray Born to put him in his place erase the chance to feel at ease You don’t deserve a moment to focus on all the memories With Heaven cent on devil’s dice but no one needs to know the dealer keeps on dealing with a loaded pack, I’m feeling the squeeze Just be. End of. I feel the shallow rise I think I hear your mother calling telling you to quit your bawling Crying. Flying into abyss You’re a mistake with a kiss This is lately Bending ‘til it breaks me Holding on Yes, I’m holding on Sit here and pray with me Trying isn’t maybe screaming like a baby This is wrong This is oh so wrong Her waltz is not a false cry for attention maybe I’ll mention this in her epitaph (x2) Scaffold the old mountains littered with spires (x2) Til your knees go numb Just remember These four words and it is done Forever Christ is no more Christ is no more Pray with me (x4) Sit here and pray with me This is lately Bending ‘til it breaks me Holding on Yes, I’m holding on Trying isn’t maybe screaming like a baby This is wrong This is oh so wrong Copyright Of DEADLY CIRCUS FIRE

So I find a way to save my soul, Until he finds another way in. So I find a place to save us all, I severe these ties. I hide. Never. Will he find the time to rise inside? Will I keep the beast at bay? Still it shakes me as I draw the line, It’s just a matter of when I break. Back in my head, The demon screams inside again. Back in my head, What’s this you’re telling me? Why can’t you leave it be? They will play you like a puppet boy, Try to fill you with the wires. Let me out and I will help you, boy. Remember these ties. Find a place to hide, Do you hear me? Running out of time, Leave me to ruin! The city died in it’s sleep now it’s gone, Pity that you wont see this is my beckon call. Back in my head, The demon screams inside again. Back in my head, What’s this you’re telling me? Why can’t you leave it be? Back in my head, Back in my head, Why don’t you let it be? Release me! I will find a way (repeated) Is his heart not worth it’s weight in gold? Will he ever know it’s worth it’s weight in - Does it even matter? (repeated) You wont take me alive, You’ve got nowhere to hide. Edges will fray, No one will leave here alive. Stray dogs cry, Caught in the path of the headlights. Pray! Beg for the chance to survive. Sickness and slaves, All in the kingdom of flies. Why wont you leave me alone? ‘Cause we’re bound by the seeds that they’ve sewn. Back in my head, The demon screams inside again. Back in my head, What’s this you’re telling me? Why can’t you leave it be? Back in my head, Back in my head, Why don’t you let it be? Why wont you leave me? (whistles) Copyright Of DEADLY CIRCUS FIRE

Sing me a song my dear, Like a lullaby. Sing me a song while I rest, Don’t you cry. Keep your head in the clouds, Don’t look down, Or you’ll fall on your face, Lying in your on disgrace. Keep your head In the clouds! X3 Sweet dreams and farewell, Keep your eyes closed. Sweet dreams and farewell, Time to let go. (Sing me a song) Sing you a song my dear, Like you sang to me. Sing you a song while you rest, Threnody. Keep your head In the clouds! X3 Keep your head in the clouds, Don’t look down, Or you’ll fall on your face, Lying in your on disgrace. Keep your head In the clouds! X3 Sweet dreams and farewell, Keep your eyes closed. Sweet dreams and farewell, Time to let go. Farwell, farewell, Sweet dreams and farewell, Keep your eyes closed. Sweet dreams and farewell, Time to let go. (Sing me a song) Sweet Dreams and Farewell x3 Copyright Of DEADLY CIRCUS FIRE

Believe and trust crushed in intervals her eyes are bitter Before the fuss lost in all of us I feel much better Believe and trust [x4] And in the end no silver line you can’t pretend betray your own mind Right, passage God walks away Demand rapture Vultures are coming to pick all the meat from me Between the lust must’ve been mistrust the lies are bigger Poor man rusts lies in ash and dust he’s born to whither Believe and trust [x3] Believe and- And in the end no silver line you can’t pretend betray your own mind Right, passage God walks away Demand rapture Vultures are coming to pick all the meat from me You take away his smile pick the meat from me you pick the meat from me You take away his smile pick the meat from me you pick the meat from me Leviathan [x2] Copyright Of DEADLY CIRCUS FIRE

The ship has run aground it seems we’ve lost again it’s cold, so dark we call his name To hold off the sharks until we’re saved I feel the warmth your white light falls within my soul Such a hopeless sight It’s still my time The sails uphold the sky We swim for the shoreline [for the shoreline] The end seems endless Yet we tell these stories We’ll meet again I Still feel your light in my hand now it’s gone You take all my words and you read between the lines You tell me how I think and you tell me how I feel I know what I want and what I say And I’ll say it anytime and say it anyway any day And I will not stand for the world that you take me through And I will not whisper the words that you tell me I will not give you the chance to say it And I will not tell you again [I feel the warmth your white light falls within] Copyright Of DEADLY CIRCUS FIRE
