People

They walk in the street,
Next door neighbour, or unknown,
You cross them, every day,
They look like nothing, remain … false.
And skies could rise higher than stars,
But they don't move, they don't care,
If the world aches,
If their sons pray.
All remain the same,
There no one who dares to raise,
Just a voice to break the chains,
Just a voice, to say "Why wait ?"
How many lives ?
How many 'why' ?
How many tears ?
A sea of ice,
How many years ?
How many hands ?
How many 'Hills' ?
There're fists in the sand.
I hate you, fat gray man
Hollow head, and empty heart
Tainted mind and lazy eyes,
Nothing to change, all is right…

Slash your wrists
Ugly scene with a knife,
Or hang yourself,
Each film in your head…
" I looked for him, just one friend
But there's no-one, just false faces,
Another pain,
Another failure,
You still remain a trick of my mind.
I looked for her, and saw a girl,
But I don't dare, I'm sickly too shy.
Another time,
Another try,
Someone else came, was faster,
And still I ache, on the floor…
Still I ache, on the floor of my room, so sad.
Look at me, dressed in black
Eye-liner, heavy shoes and spikes,
Watch me bleed,
Watch me die,
They think I'm crazy, a picture,
And still I ache, on the floor…
Still I ache, on the floor of my room, alone."
Crest or hill, high or low,
World is here,
Open, wide,
Hopes and dreams in the eyes,
Teens' heart ache, older not.
Ten years more to be crushed,
World was here,
Open, wide,
Cursed to stone, blood to ice,
You don't ache, when you’re dead.

Fading

Found a man, leaves the house,
Get married, children come
Does her best, catches the moon
Hides her tears, in her room.
Mother works, all day long,
Mother teaches, all she knows,
So they grow, then they go,
All is done, but something is wrong.
Evening dies, lost on a chair
In her dreams, always the same nightmare.
At her feet, a hand rises,
Catches her leg, pulls her down
Then she sinks, into the sand,
Empty scream, shore of silence
Time is Snow, cold and white.
Time is Snow, cold and blind.
I melt, don't want to die.
I melt, don't want to die.
Forever, ever, ever, ever, … white….
Forever, ever, ever, ever, … blind….
You melt, why don't you cry ?
You melt, why don't you cry ?
Doll of tears, one friend in a life,
Eyes of haze, no longer see its smiles.
Rains of doubt, more often
Deaf clouds, lower,
Ring of dreams, burns again,
Half of an oath, forgotten.
Frozen rose, in an ocean of sand,
White as bones, corroded by the sun,
Wooden face, is waiting,
Wooden hands, for nothing,
Stony voice, years of laughter,
A broken toy, and the dust...

Trance
Noisy stars
Hollow eyes
Drunk souls
Try to seek you
Night is strange
Dreams and chains
Hearts to sale
Hall of life
Drink, no shame
Cursed to watch
Looking for her
Sexy girl
Now alone
Mistaken
Back to tears
Here is Hell
Here lovers wait
For the right one
Hold frustration
Under spotlights
Break the chains
Dancefloor
Dancefloor
Dance till sunrise
Dance to save you
Wild sex
Empty smiles
Dance to meet her
Dance to show you
Dance till next set
Dancing crowd
Lost

Hammerland
03:34
|
|||
Celluloid face, in a world of dresses,
Switched off her life, all is fairy lights,
TV, magazines, famous Stars and dreams,
Illusion and wind, illusions on screen
And they're here for nothing
Everyone, everywhere,
They're supposed to stop, and lay down
And the hidden crown, curse a child,
Poisoned eyes,
Still Hammer Land
And a wish, ever,
Your own choice, never,
All the things you pay for,
But who is the toy ?
Sealed fate, ever,
Not a chance to know what's inside others hand
You wouldn't change, words of tales,
That built what you're now, and forever: lies !
And you're face is sinking
Heaven's bells disappear,
Highway to nowhere
Highway to pain
Media draw the sky, Media-God,
Not a chance to escape and find your way
Money throw the Stars, Money-God,
Not a chance to escape and write your own words.

The Beast
04:41
|

Looking through the window,
Sees a white face
No eyes, no nose,
No mouth, no throat.
He turns to him,
And face to face,
Time disappears,
Can't move his legs
All vanishes
All is over,
His will as a dream
He surrenders
He's now somewhere,
An unknown place,
Close to a lair
Beside a crest
Clouds grey and black
Run in the daylight,
No time to wait
Fly & escape
Grunts from a cave
Bones of a child,
An idea raises,
Freezes his mind
The beast emerges,
Sniffes the air,
Shakes his head,
Dinner is served.
---------------------
For claws and teeth
There's no shelter
You're just fresh meat
For the hunter
You're no-one
Your fate is sealed
But still you hope
For hide and live
Grunts get closer...
Grunts get closer...
Enraged and wild,
Hideous and blind
Grunts get closer...
Grunts get closer...
Enraged and wild,
The hideous smile
---------------------
Run away,
Leave this place
Run and pray
To win this race
The fiend is here
Runs after you
Enjoys your fear,
Moment of truth.
Grunts get closer...
Grunts get closer...
Enraged and wild,
Hideous and blind
Grunts get closer...
Grunts get closer...
Enraged and wild,
The final smile...

Come and see me,
Here is my cage.
Fool and crazy,
That's what they say…
Houses sink and there is dust in the sun.
Moon is blue and ice is red.
My hand is sick, and eats the sky,
Eats the time, a candle flies.
Hope is a joke, I'm here forever,
Why should I change, it makes no sense,
I'm in my world, nothing can reach me,
I'm safe and wild, here there's no crowd.
----------------
Come and see me,
Here is my cage.
Fool and crazy,
That's what they say.
Come to me, come to cry,
Come to pray and judge my life.
Watch my arms, raised to the stars.
A mountain smiles, and kiss my eyes are wide
They're dark and warm.
There are nails, lighting the grass.
There are snails riding the clouds.
Small while birds leave my eyes…

Hi pawn,
Here is the game,
Rules are holy
The Engraved Stone,
Come and take,
Take your place
On the board,
The boredom board,
You don't have to think,
You don't have to move
Don't have to choose
Don't have to hope
Shut up !
Do your work,
Walk in line,
Do our work,
And shut your mouth,
Dream our dreams,
Eat our shit,
Suck our gods,
Die in silence,
Die !
------------------
Six, wake,
Eight, start,
Ten, pause,
Twelve, eat,
One, start,
Six, back,
Seven, eat,
Ten, sleep…
I still sink,
Another sun has gone,
A shore of shells,
Alone and scared,
Watch myself,
Other wills,
Modern slave,
Yet old.
Six, wake,
Eight, start,
Ten, pause,
Twelve, eat,
One, start,
Six, back,
Seven, eat,
Ten, sleep…
And we're blind,
And we're deaf,
Still we stay,
Still we wait,
World is blind
World is deaf,
Still we stay,
Still we wait.
------------------
Leave me !
Another thought I throw away,
Another 'why' I hate,
Another word tears my ears,
Another one, who cares ?
Once I was a man,
And sickly play a role, a game,
But now, I can no more, can't stand,
Please,
Don't forget who you are,
Don't forget your fights,
Don't forget the kid inside,
Don't forget you're alive.
Leave me !,
Leave me !,
Leave me !,
Leave me !…

Missed Farewells
04:33

Waking up, a doubt
Suddenly wrings her heart,
She slowly turns her head,
The silence of the breath,
The silence everywhere,
Here is the end, under the sheets,
Layed a soul,
Nothing moves, nothing sleeps, nothing lives,
No more smile, no more tear, no more kiss,
But this man, a dark stone on the sand,
Found a path, found a door.
I'm not dead, I'm not ill,
In fact I know, now I live,
All is lie, men went wrong,
I curse their gods, I curse their laws,
Life is all, not only flesh
There's no end…
Mind owns a core…
True, Eternal,
Waking up, no doubt,
He's still here, somewhere a ghost,
Talks to her all day long,
Talks to her all night long.
He knows everything on her,
He knows everything on him,
He wants her to come,
He wants her to live,
He wants her to die,
He wants her to realise,
What … life really means…
She took a knife.

CYANHIDE Paris, France
CYANHIDE firstly released 3 albums : Early Projects (1998), Cairns (2000) et Dancefloor (2003)). We did everything alone (self-production), but because of this too huge work, we surrendered for some years, and stopped. Slowly, some new titles were designed until we decided to release them on a brand new album : Propaganda. Since 2018, we are preparing new concerts, and the story continues... ... more
