Second album
General's Crown
(vlad e. andrijasevic - my diet pill)

And if i travel space at the speed of light
It's to find you
And if the only trace, what you have left
Was a warm embrace
And if the general's crown was a crown of nails
You'll be whispering a strange serenade

It takes time to be freed from your role (x2)
And the lies they feed your ego

Your loneliness is a masquerade
You settled to protect yourself
In a funny way
In a different way

It takes time to be freed from your role (x4)
And the lies they feed your ego

Ego & I
(d'argirolle - my diet pill)

Disillusion, dissension
One love for a life but no life for one love
No sacrifice, no compromise
Misunderstandings and we’re fed up staying
If one feeling can hurt a man
I wanna be inhuman
I ain’t got no lust for pleasure
I don’t want to suffer

Dysfunction, distortion
See the modern quest, the blooming of itself
Don’t look backward, don’t look forward
This generation waits for a revelation
If one feeling can hurt a woman
She wanna be inhuman
Is there anyone who can help her ?
She doesn’t want to suffer

Tell me if it’s a game
See your empty life
Tell me if it’s a shame
See my empty life

Division, destruction
Nuclear family has one foot in the grave
Solitude in the hive
One point for self-service lives
I like your void, do you like mine ?
We’re glad untogether
I like your freedom, do you like mine ?
See us when it’s better

Do you trust me?
When I say I’m nothing when you don’t look at me
When you give me substance to be something now
If not, I won’t be anything
When this world comes back to the void
Do you trust me now?

Sandy's bathroom
(vlad e. andrijasevic - my diet pill)

Go into Sandy's bathroom (repeat)

Some say i won't dare to go in there
Fuck them iwill go anyway
I'm not the coward you think i am
I'm gonna prove that i deserve to be a man
And i will break in and i'll see her naked
And i will touch her tits while she's yelling
A as i remember that little song

Oh oh, you thought that i would run
Papapa
And you thought that i'd be sca-a-ared
Papapa
Now you all got to shut your mouth
I don't need no more advice
Papapa
'cos i saw Sandy naked in her ba-a-ath.

Go into Sandy's bathroom (repeat)


Little scratches
(d'argirolle - my diet pill)

Going down to downtown full of sounds
This languid town’s blinding with its city lights
I’m looking at some lovely passers-by
The summertime anyway makes people nice

Good country songs often talk ‘bout a river
My country song’s talking about this and that
Good country songs often talk ‘bout a mountain
My country song’s talking ‘bout I don’t know what

This song’s to have a dance with you
This song is only to have a dance with you

I wonder if it’s better to burn from a kindled kiss
Than in a simulated bliss

This song will come too soon to its end
It always will be remembered as empty
I should earn money from the time that I spend
Instead of writing down this inanity

This song’s to have a dance with you
This song is only to have a dance with you


Desert
(d'argirolle - my diet pill)

In the cold fort, there’s a man
Watching the desert, keeping an eye
On the void of an existence
On disappointed hopes
On the vain obstacles of life

No retreat in his military, no retreat faced with the enemy
No retreat in front of nonsense
In this place where a daily tragedy settled down

Round the cold fort stand some mountains
And behind the mountains, there’re some enemies
All the guards have yet heard the stomps
Of soldiers they’ve never seen
All the guards still wait for fight

No retreat in his military, no retreat faced with the enemy
No retreat in front of nonsense
In this play where a daily tragedy settled down


L'accalmie
(d'argirolle - my diet pill)

Ce matin, je suis en paix avec moi-même
Après les effusions, après la confusion
Je me suis vidé
Ce matin, j’ai fait la paix avec moi-même


Family

(d'argirolle - my diet pill)

All my family are here
All my family I know they’ll forget me
And now I’m gone

All my family are here
All my family I feel they’re around me
Around my corpse

Here we go!
They’re arguing again ‘bout my money ‘bout my name
Today’s just the same as yesterday

My people they’re tearing her apart
Respect my memory
Not for posterity But just for the family

Everyone’s going to the party, tonight
Enjoy my funeral, tonight
All my friends are at the party, tonight
Without me, I’m afraid.



The french EP
L'idole
(vlad e. andrijasevic - my diet pill)

Quelque silhouettes
Presque impersonnelles
Essaient encore de m'intéresser

Moi je les ignore
Lorsqu'elles me présentent leurs corps
Pour tenter de m'avoir

Mon indifférence
Sublime le sentiment
Que celà me tente

A part masquer mes faiblesses
Et me cacher quand je soupire
Je m'affiche... l'idole d'une jeunesse
Qui n'est pas très regardante
Sur ce que je représente
Sur ma fonction inconsistante
Et se moque de ce que je pense

Et j'éprouve de la gêne
Que je traîne encore
Malgré tout mes efforts


La beauté du geste
(vlad e. andrijasevic - my diet pill)

Elle l'oublie en passant
Puis elle n'y pense plus du tout
D'un revers de la main
Elle l'écarte du chemin
Et s'il tombe, C'est tant mieux
Il ne se relèvera pas
Il embrassera la route
La face contre terre.

Elle détourne le regard
Elle ne le voit plus du tout
Sa présence si étroite
Il est déjà trop loin
Elle ne l'entend même plus
Elle n'y pense même pas
La face dans la boue
Et la peur dans les reins

Sorti dans la cour
Traîné dans la boue

Elle sent quelques remords
Mais elle les oublie très vite
Et puis elle prononce les quelques mots
Qu'elle aurait dû lui dire
Il est de toute façon trop tard
Pour regretter son geste
Pour le pousser un peu plus
pour le piétiner encore

Sorti dans la cour
Traîné dans la boue (et jeté aux ordures)
Sorti dans la cour
Face contre terre ( et jeté en pâture)

Il reste étourdi par la beauté du geste.


La rue
(vlad e. andrijasevic - my diet pill)

La rue n'écoutait pas quand
Je t'ai vu passer par là
Mais elle devrait pourtant
S'y intéresser un temps soit peu

Assez rares sont les instants
Qui comptent plus que ceux
Tellement moins ennivrants
Mais que je connaissais mieux avant

Je ne doute plus maintenant

First Album
Leash in head
(vlad e. andrijasevic - my diet pill)

He’s on the couch testing his strength
Praying some angels to give some faith
He’s taking his eyes from out of his head
Trying however to endure that pain.

How can you jump when your feet are tie
How can you see when your eyes they are blind
Trying to sink in the sheet on his bed
He cannot withdraw this leash from his head

Fantasy worlds are all that is left
Nothing will ever be the same
Having his eyes burned by the sun
Is a such special and terrible thing
But it’s not a hundredth of what is like
To have your wings stroke at the roots
And see them die

Got a leash in his head
There’s no chance to place life instead
Heating light far from his eyes
Buried deep in the depth of the skies

Dozens of lights spots confusing his mind
He has no strength to face these signs
Trying to chase all those pictures from him
He just makes them stronger
And he knows he can’t win

Got a leash in his head
There’s no chance to place life instead
Heating light far from his eyes
Buried deep in the depth of the skies


L'air de rien
(vlad e. andrijasevic - my diet pill)

Ce n'est pas ce soir que j'irai danser
Avec les fantomes dans les halls de gare
Je ne crois pas pouvoir courir avec la belle
Sur la place du marche
La nuit ne se prete plus
A ce genre d' artifices faciles
Et je ne crois pas pouvoir oublier
Les soirs si clairs ou tu riais...si fort

Je ne suis pas de ceux
Qui, l'air de rien
Oublient ces temps...ou font semblant
Et disent que ce n'etaient rien.

Ce n'est pas ce soir que j'irai pleurer
Que j'irai me marrer sur ta tombe
Il fait trop froid pour sortir
Dans la chaleur de la foule
Sitôt la nuit sera tombee
Je serai encore de retour
Mais il ne sera plus question
D'aller danser au clair de lune

Je ne suis pas de ceux
Qui, l'air de rien
Oublient ces temps...ou font semblant
Et disent que ce n'etaient rien


Summer song
(dargirolle - my diet pill)

Walking in the street
In the pouring sun
Smelling city air
It’s really fun
Looking at the old ones
On the bench
Waiting for the end

Walking by the sea
In a high wind
Smelling iodine
On my skin
Looking at the youth
On the beach
Waiting for nothing

My town is low
My time is slow
Summer is hot
And life is flat
I’m a larvae
And I expect
I’m burning down
With boredom now

Walking in the club
Under the lights
Smelling the perfumes
Feeling alright
Looking at the dancers
On the dance floor
Dancing alone
Walking in the street
In a starry night
Stepping on a tramp
He’s drunk and…wet
Looking at myself In this place
I feel tired

My town is low
My time is slow
Summer is hot
And life is flat
I’m a larvae
And I expect
I’m burning down
With boredom now

Daily life is a fight
You must win with fairness
Seeking for fleeting delights
Leads you to the loneliness
Pa pa pa...


Ladykiller
(vlad e. andrijasevic - my diet pill)

It’s time to wear your gold shining trousers
Those lovely pants that fit you so well
Spinnin’ round and round and round
Your magic mirror, tonight, is so gentle
You gotta… Move
You gotta prove yourself you’re one of the best
Lady killer

Ten to ten, right now is time to go
Through the streets of city of light
To the lovely place where the girls come in bloom
Heading for the blue crystal ballroom
You gotta… Dance
You gotta take your chance
And find some flesh… to put in your bed
You need to taste some lips as a comfort

Yes… You can dance all night
And move in time with girls in hands
And lipstick stains over your neck

Now it’s it, you’re in the temple of dancers
Head high you sketch a few steps on the dance floor
Hello…
You throw your hat to the ladies
As you see them all faint in the same time
It’s so good to be… Irresistible
And so sensual, and so incredible…
Lady killer


Clouds are made of pain
(vlad e. andrjasevic - my diet pill)

I try hard to read her thoughts
I read her lips but I still don’t know
I try to breathe but the breathing's slow
I miss the words and I let them flow
And she stands in the velvet light
As I try to reach her hand
‘Cos I’m scared when the night comes
Especially when it rains

‘Cos the clouds are made of pain
I don’t want to stay outside
I need a shelter from the sky
I need her hand to chase the pain
I turn my back against the wall
And put a pillow on my face
I close my eyes until I bleed
‘Cos the clouds are made of pain

When the sky returns to blue
I can say I feel secure
'Till it starts to rain again
‘Cos the clouds are made of pain


Gettysburg
(vlad e. andrijasevic - my diet pill)

Dream of absolute comfort
In a place near Gettysburg…
Far from home

And all those people heard about you
And all those people heard bad about you
But you crossed the seven seas to know the feeling
But you climbed eleven trees to find you’re stuck
In a dirty place near Gettysburg
