“Two possibilities exist: either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.”

― Arthur C. Clarke

ILS NE VEULENT QUE TON BIEN

Rien ne change dans le merveilleux monde de la vente au détail. Le mec passe une demi-heure à t'expliquer à quel point les appareils que tu vas acheter sont extraordinaires, puis une autre demi-heure à tenter de te convaincre qu'il serait malhonnête de sa part de te laisser partir sans te vendre une garantie prolongée car, tu sais, yé font pu comme yé faisaient pis les chances que ça te pète dans les mains dans les 4 prochaines années sont fortes pis bla bla bla pis finalement ce que t'achètes, bin c'est d'la marde.

MÊME DIFFÉRENCE

REALITY


the lights are on but you're not home
you've drifted off somewhere alone
somewhere that's safe,
no questions here
a quiet place where you hide from your fears

[chorus]

sometimes when you're out of rope
the way to climb back up's unclear
the walls you build around yourself 
i guess they also keep you here
are you afraid of what they think?
whoever "they" happen to be 
or are you hiding from the scars of your own reality?

so you sedate and drown in vain
you've got a pill for every day
a suit and tie to mask the truth
its ugly head is starthing to show through

[chorus]

[bridge]

the monster you're feeding,
your lack of perception
the things that you do 
to fullfill your addictions
the light at the end of your tunnel is closing
what is it that you're so afraid of exposing?
you'd give it all up for what's theirs for the taking
whatever it takes to keep your hands from shaking
the same things you're thinking might make you feel better
the same things that probably get you here

[chorus]

[bridge]

#JB17

Très triste d'apprendre ce matin qu'après 9 mois de coma, Jules Bianchi nous a définitivement quitté hier. Un autre gladiateur de la vitesse qui part trop tôt.

FEELS LIKE

Soudainement, je ressens une vague — non, un tsunami — de nostalgie et je suis envahi par un sentiment d'urgence de revisiter mon passé.

RIEN QUE DE LA POUSSIÈRE DANS LE VENT

I close my eyes only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams pass before my eyes, a curiosity

Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see

Now, don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away, and all your money won't another minute buy
