lyrics

holy thoughts
nestled in yr skull
& yr heart
yr soiled banner

so many people
no one's expecting you
yr own body the only playground
you've ever known


too old to be
born so late
too lonely to feel
isolated
no use shouting
yrself hoarse
no link with
the outer world
uh


morpheus
is gnashing his teeth
dreams just disclose
all yr unconfessed longings

oh what a choice
that noise
or mutism's heavy promises
well silence
is just no cradle
for yr peace


older than yr
ancestors
each second weighs
a ton
homeland
rhymes with
nothing
homeland
just means
nothing


yr brain burns
you're getting closer to this
the more you're scared
the less you understand

& all yr speeches
bear out this strange belief
the voice of reason echoes the words
of someone else


anything
for a
helping hand
for anyone
holding yr
deserted hand
but no light
straight
in the eye
don't you look at me
straight
in the eye

GOOMH now emerges as a power trio: Alexis, singer and guitarist supported by Julien on bass and Nicolas on drums. They deliver an atypical music where violence, sensitivity, overdrive and crazy rhythms collide.
