Dragon

Sixteen years / No way
Old enough / Nowhere
Sixteen days / No why
For the older / Get out
Tales that tell / Never
Dragon flies / Just lies
Lovely hearts / Don’t care
And epic fights / Get out
Nothing matches,
Oh fucking world !
Where all is lie,
And loneliness…
Where are you
My missing half,
Strong or cute,
My second heart
All i see
Is empty streets
Hypnotized eyes
And building lights
Child’ wings
Are falling
Shot in flight,
By adult fights
Howling down
Insane words
Your own style,
And fuck the world !
Leave me now,
I want to hide
Under my sheets
Under my tears
You’re now forty,
You’re now fifty,
Time is running,
You life eating.
[You] Sadly look back,
Remind the teen
Remind the child
You used to be,
Tales that tell / Never
Dragon flies / Just lies
Lovely hearts / Don’t care
And epic fights / Get out
(+ repeat once)
Nothing matches,
Oh fucking world !
Where all is lie,
And loneliness…

Brotherhood
04:53
|

Dust,
Nails,
Grim,
Wood shack man lives here
A lone soul, free, wild,
In a dream, sees a sign
Of Hell
He felt the heat rise
And flames as rain
Nice city light
Dead,
Burnt,
Black
As a coil mine,
No one will come there
Too late to cry now
All of us perfect and right
We know sometimes we need someone
But when we see a needy hand,
We shrug shoulders and remain quiet /
We shrug shoulders and leave, Why ?
Men – See - Rain - Falls
Men – Close – Their - Doors

My Son
04:05
|
|||
I watch you in the mirror,
Making up and red eyes.
You do your best to look ok!
Mother you fear for your only child
Waves of doubt fall from skies,
On a tortured beach.
Ill,
Cold clinic - white clean gowns,
Dancing...
Inside, you burn candles in your head.
Absurd this can’t be…
Some kind of mistake…
Doctors must be wrong…
The child seems lifeless…
Fixed eyes and soft head,
Fixed eyes in her arms,
Fixed eyes look outside,
Fixed eyes see no more.
-----
She is sick, and the mirror,
Is seeking her, red ice.
She lost, her faith, no God, just pain
Mother you cry among orphan toys
Waves of rage fall from skies,
On a tortured beach.
Ill,
Cold clinic - white clean gowns,
Dancing...
Inside, you burn candles on his grave.

I was told
04:29
|
|||
Now this bed is twice oversized.
Broken fists, i lost the fight.
There are ghosts in my head.
Your voice bites my brain
Here the walls torture me, and ask
Where you’ve gone,
Why you left them behind.
Are you sick, are you cold, are you sad or alone ?
---------------------
I was told boys never cry,
I was told love never dies,
So tell me what corrodes my lips,
Leaving blood at each kiss
I built a box, and laid inside,
Closed the top and sew my eyes,
Leave my body walk away,
Just a robot remains, night and day.
2 x | I was told boys never cry,
| I was told love never dies,
| Are you sick, are you cold, are you sad or alone ?
| I was told boys never cry,
| I was told love never dies,
| And they talk, they talk … but who knows ?

Laugh story
04:34
|
|||
This might save all,
This time, dressed up like a doll,
Making up her eyes, hope she'll figure it out.
"Is there someone to love ?"
Crowd, night, Dancefloors,
Tears, lies, All sink in alcohol.
Lifting up your eyes,
The boy appears,
dances and smiles,
"Is he the one i seek ?"
Streets, haze, they walk,
Long stairs lead them to her door.
Chorus: "Come and close my eyes
And draw a world of sparks,
You can fuck me again,
But stay...".
Just like the other ones, he's gone,
left you all alone.
"I still can't beleive that,
I gave all i had, for what ?"
"In my room, again, i stare.
When i close my eyes, all remain is shame."
[Chorus]

Train
04:47
|
|||
An angel should have come,
Open a door let him go.
(He) wastes his time in a world of ice,
Blades or pikes, he’s made for fights.
The lost knight tears his nails,
On the stone walls of a jail.
(He) forgets he bleeds in a role playing,
Calls for help, but calls remain… vain,
And there’s no one…
To break this spell,
And there’s no one…
----------------------------
Train… I hear you call
Train… Lay on the rails
Train… You’re now so close
Train… Here is the gate.
----------------------------
No one un-der-stands
He can't escape, the tricks of his brain.
No one re-a-lizes
Twenty white candles, he can’t... no more lie.
No one sees his aches, his pain,
That all leads here,
All leads to these rails.
With his sword, he’s laying, and waits,
Under a white sheet,
Waits for the final train…

Vengeance
04:58
|
|||
Heaven’s here, just watch their faces,
Suburban house with grass and trees,
Father plays with all the kids,
For a kingdom he wouldn’t sell a day,
But…
__________________________________________
Fault / Mistaken
Of a child / Too shy
He seats / No sense
On a chair / Nowhere
Wait / Can’t call
For a why / No hope
Kidnapped / No sense
And this cell / Nowhere
The Thorn / Crucified
In his wrists / Sharp pain
The worm / No sense
In his head / Nowhere
Raped / And hit
Once again / Every night
Then a call / No sense
Others wait / Nowhere

Kill them,
As they killed my child,
I’ll take their life
I’ll hang them high
Shame
I’ll hear no call
Shame
I’ll burn their souls

The Doll
03:44
|
|||
Sat and charmed
The smile of a doll
Aches, in shreds
Dust, wood, rain
In your bed,
Time yet tease you
Call and wait
Poor lone doll
Pain, at night,
A small house, the girl
Calls and sinks
A child dies
In her room,
Into fire,
Pills for what ?,
Poor lone soul…
______
Sick, destroyed,
Four eyes can’t stand
Life is gone
They can only hold the doll
In your grave,
Time yet eats you
Calls are vain
The doll howls
______
In her room,
Into fire,
Pills for what ?,
Poor lone soul…
In your bed,
Time yet tease you
Call and wait
Poor lone doll

American Butchery
05:01
|
|||
Inside Hell,
Inside doubt,
Inside my head,
Inside a hole.
Caught, fall, hit, I lie, no sense,
Locked doors, sky of cells
A kick for what I hide,
A kick for what I say.
Isolation, experiments, electric shocks, surgery,
What a success in turning a man to slave…
Poison gas, weapons and lies, propaganda, warfare for oil,
What a power in leading his brother to death...

Propaganda

Propaganda
Sick,
Of this sea of hills,
Is there a somewhere
Where you can be yourself?
Where you hear no lie?
A shaded forest,
No city light,
No techno-jail,
No advert lie,
The chained slave
Has a wish inside, | Dream
Wait for a savior, | Lie
Another lie… | Dream
Meanwhile, he works, | Pill
He slowly dies, | False
Each day, less conscious, | Pill
He’s satisfied | False
-----------------------------------------------
Sick,
Of this sea of hills,
Is there a somewhere | Dream
Where you can be yourself? | Lie
Where you hear no lie? | Dream
A poisoned forest, | Pill
Hypnotic lights, | False
The techno-faith, | Pill
Marketing shines, | False
The chained slaves
Other wishes and eyes, | Dream
The chained slaves | Lie
By their own lies | Dream
They trade and forge | Pill
Steel links and nails | False
Each day, less conscious, | Pill
They’re satisfied | False

Destiny
02:23
|

Destiny – Now she’s old,
Her skin in the mirror turns to stone.
Heaven / Hell, Fear in the heart,
Turning a face, then turning her eyes,
The Death is here – A smile – It’s the call

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
