Stéphane Gallay thumbnail
Stéphane Gallay Nocturna réalise dans cet album une alchimie impressionnante, une passerelle à travers trente ans de métal, du Hard-FM au métal progressif, en passant par le métal symphonique – peu importe l’ordre, en fait. Toute nostalgie mise à part, ce Lucidity est à écouter de toute urgence. Favorite track: Revelations.

Lucidity 05:37
We're higher than the sky We know just what to do We aim for the stars and the brightest moon We go so far away but not far from we lay Aspirations near but this will not last Sometimes dreams can be reality Strange emotions sometimes you feel Torn and broken, cold and confused This is your dream, this is YOU! Temptations always there You feel compelled to stay You try to understand But it's never there Now come and take my hand I'll show you what to do I'll guide you to the light of this Of this darkened moon... Sometimes dreams can be reality Strange emotions sometimes you feel Torn and broken cold and confused This is your dream, this is YOU! Lucidity! You're on your knees, you fall from grace! You know it's there, so come impaired To the fall!

Revelations 05:05
I can wake up any moment I'm not gonna get a second chance I'm not gonna let this moment slowly slip away I gotta make it work both ways And we feel That our lives are an open sea Until the day When we give up honesty We will rise, into the night Until you come with me, so you can see Change the path, ignore the past Woah, yeeah! This is my revelation In this dream begins a calling What lies beneath is something that is left unsaid Her hesitation causes me to stray I'm already too late We will rise, into the night Until you come with me, so you can see Change the path, ignore the past Woah, yeeah! This is my revelation We found our way to open doors, that lead a way from this Unending, descending State of mind We will rise, into the night Until you come with me, so you can see Change the path, ignore the past Woah, yeeah! This is my revelation!

Interlude 01:20

We have fallen, to aspersion Now's our time to make our stand Lies and fire, cries of pyre Let's break these binds and change the hand! We ride the dream We are now free Soon you will see This is not me Here's to gaining solace Tried to hide us, then defy us Suppress our minds so can't tell We are growing, dreams awoken Together we will give them hell! We ride the dream We are now free Soon you will see I will be me We are now free, my time has come Open my eyes, we see the sun We stand together, one by one The sting of desire My time has come! We are now free, my time has come Open my eyes, we see the sun We stand together, one by one The sting of desire, my time has come

Cast Assured 10:13
Arriving from madness A journey far and wide Mistaken for reality Instead it was just a lie We glide Into the dark illusion sky At night Until our paths align And we realise we're free We rise from our boundaries When we're cast assured, we break away From this solitary state of mind If you have a dream then don't push it down Take it from me, the power lies within your dream Insanity of humanity Deception, war and pride We drown all our emotions in the pit of dark despair In fire we are burning toward the dusk of destiny! Son it's fine We'll be together when it's time I cry A promise made within my deep and weeping mind We rise from our boundaries When we're cast assured, we break away From this solitary state of mind If you have a dream then don't push it down Take it from me, the power lies within your dream We glide Into the dark illusion sky At night Until our paths align And we realise we're free Son it's fine We'll be together when it's time I cry A promise made within my deep and weeping mind Together we'll be, once more Again We are moving on To the end We've fallen! Into the dark oppressive reeking minds I cry Almost like we're just a speck of dust We've risen to another state of mind Rising to our calling Rising and awakening Rising to our calling Rising and awakening I don't wanna wake up from this scene Making me feel like I belong to be free I don't need to be cast out to see What lies beneath is something that I cannot be
