This first track introduces the journey of the traveler. His passivity having led him to a state of stasis, he hears a first voice echoing inside his head as he sleeps. The voice seems to be explaining him that it’s time to escape the mental prison that he has built himself.
lyrics
J’entends cette voix qui respire
Qui crie, qui cogne et m’attire
Dans le déni je me délie
De ces mensonges qui rongent ma vie
Réveille-toi
Wake up
You’ve been a fool for too long
Trapped in your own maze
Your soul rotting in a prison of flesh
What do you see inside?
