Zoom in, Zack Ingus!

The heat is squeezing me once again
Can't achieve to grab my gun without lowering my eyes, Ha!
Sweat is dripping on my skin
Until the first man hits the ground

This scum has claimed what I knew was mine
Wants to look me in the eye, put a bullet in my head, Ha!
Boy that's a neat situation
Until the first man hits the ground

Tumbleweeds ain't no distraction
Buildings fronts melt before my eyes
The blazing air is blurring my vision
And I'm starting to dread my demise
People shout towards my direction
Clench my fist, I'm starting to see red
The crowd is fading to a monstrous distortion
A black mass that wants me to drop dead

Down in the street in sandstone and dust
A duel you'll never forget
With sweat and tears and public drama
And fresh blood spatters on the ground

Ready, aim, fire!

My hat is blocking part of my sight
Can't even think of moving to put it out of the way, Ha!
Don't give him the smallest window
Until the first man hits the ground

A burning dot on the black silhouette
Take a last drag on your smoke before pulling the trigger, Ha!
I can feel my hands are itching
Until the first man hits the ground

His arm swiftly reaches his holster
I feel the blood buzzing in my head
A sudden drop on my thermometer
I feel this instant as it's starting to spread
The colt slowly aims at my chest
In my confusion I fear I might stumble
No one competes with a gunman from the west
White smoke belches out of his barrel

Down in the street in sandstone and dust
A duel you'll never forget
With sweat and tears and public drama
And fresh blood spatters on the ground

Ready, aim, fire!

A red stain appears on my shirt
Only scratched my shoulder, the guy was out of his luck, Ha!
Get set for the next shot fired
Until the first man hits the ground

The .45 slips out of his hand
Won't have my body thrown away to vultures, not today, Ha!
His knees fall down to the floor

Until the first man hits the, first man hits the, first man hits the…

Cut !


01 Zoom In, Zack Ingus!

Quicksand

Deaf to whatever I'm told
And blind to everything I see
I will get rid of that old
And heady feeling taunting me
Moored to this senseless world
Where I don't feel fulfilled anymore
I'll answer to that call I heard
Telling me to reach another shore

And I will sail off and ditch everything
I will never regret anything
So dry your tears and let go off my hand
Let me wander far away from the strand

Now I've travelled a hundred miles
To this fantasized and unknown land
I'm freeing myself from useless wiles
My wishes are now my command
Guided by the gloomy moonlight
Peeking through the gathering clouds
I'll find my way out the misty night
That surrounds me, and pray aloud

That I could sail off and ditch everything
Without ever regretting anything
So dry your tears and let go off my hand
This hazy path is still better than what I left behind me

Hope it won't lead me to a quicksand

Hauled away from the place I've known
Torn away from my comfort zone
Porous driftwood grounded there
My soul is drenched like the morning air
No flare will never ever repossess the steely sky
Where I've impaired my thoughts
I just don't remember why

I sailed off and ditched everything
Thinking I would never regret anything
I miss your tears, your breath, your lips, your hand
This hazy path was the ladder that led me to the end

I'm now drowning in a quicksand
Drowning in a quicksand
Drowning in a quicksand
I'm now drowning in a quicksand

03 Dernier Wagon

Last Wagon


Groovin' from city to city,
In the middle of the cornfields, rollin'easy.
The heat is hammering the ground,
Crackling the ground, as the rumbling sound grows louder.
Thrown across the car, i'm tryna get some balance,
But the bumping leaves me unsteady.
We're up for some of what you think,
What I think, what really makes you wanna go and sing like:

Last wagon,
It's where i wanna be,
Last wagon,
To stick it to my honey!

Things are getting all spicy, why don't I
Order some booze for the lady,
It will be a double whiskey with ice,
And a Bloody Mary to turn up the heat in that hottie.
She drinks it so quickly she's sorta, Ha!
Staining her pants with martini,
Don't even wait for it to kick in, she's naughty,
She's steamy, I'd better hurry, for she wants it (all the way).

It's gonna be a bumpy ride, so,
Why don't you go ahead and get a good grip!
But don't go grabbing on what you think,
What I think, what makes you wanna go and sing like:

Last wagon,
It's where i wanna be,
Last wagon,
To stick it to my honey!

Last wagon
It's where I wanna be (x5)

Last wagon,
To stick it to my honey!

Clouds


Curled up to sleep in daddy's arms,
Lulled by mommy's whispers,
You're wandering through your dreams,
Amazed by the colours of your mind.

Fields of light stretch in the distance,
Reflection of a starry sky,
Head to the moon kid, your mind flies over the clouds.
You're floating in mid-air, ten miles from the ground.

See candles burning in the night,
Cast shadows on the sand,
Watch the flames burn kid, your mind flies over the clouds.
Follow the flickering lights, see what you will find.
Across the desert plains, somewhere down the line.

Up into your own part of space,
Free to wander you've gotten so far away from home,
Head to the moon kid, your mind flies over the clouds.
You're floating in mid-air, ten miles from the ground

A halo in the horizon,
Keep gliding 'till the dawn,
As time passes by kid, your mind flies over the clouds.

Fireworks in the crimson sky,
For their getting together,
They're playing with each other, in their shared playground.
They're cheering with joy, banners in their hands.

Up into your own part of space,
Free to wander you've gotten so far away from home,
Head to the moon kid, your mind flies over the clouds.
You're floating in mid-air, ten miles from the ground.
Believe in men's wonders, as long as you can.


Rest now,
After all these hours of travel.
For a moment, just a moment,
Above the atmosphere.

Gaze at the crescent Earth,
Suspended in empty space.
The dark side of the planet
Is covered in shiny web.

Your home blue planet turns yellow in the night.
Humans have gotten rid of monsters in the dark.

Sit on the wings of satellites,
The metal songbirds in the sky,
They've been singing for years, gathered around the Earth.
Fly along its rings, kid, of metal and glass

Keep going further kid, your mind flies over the clouds,
You're reaching for the stars, so far from the ground,
Believe your way to nonsense until you go sane.

Up into your own part of space,
Free to wander you've gotten so far away from home,
Head to the moon kid, your mind flies over the clouds.
You're floating in mid-air, ten miles from the ground.
Believe in men's wonders, as long as you can.

Up into your own part of space,
Free to wander you've gotten so far away from home,
Head to the moon kid, your mind flies over the clouds.
You're floating in mid-air, ten miles from the ground.
Believe in men's wonders, as long as you can.

PARADOXYCALL est un groupe de rock progressif originaire de Bordeaux. Sans chercher d’étiquette, il puise librement dans rock, blues, funk, folk, métal, jazz et classique pour développer son univers musical. Un seul mot d’ordre: il faut que ça sonne!

ParadoxyCall s’est formé fin 2011 sur le campus de Bordeaux après la rencontre de quatre étudiants, d’univers musicaux différents mais partageant la même affection pour une musique bien alambiquée. Dès fin 2012 les premiers morceaux sont écrits et ParadoxyCall fait son entrée sur la scène Bordelaise. En 2013, le groupe adopte sa formation actuelle, sort à l’aube de 2014 son premier EP, «15’s», et multiplie les concerts dans les bars Bordelais. En 2016 il annonce un LP, «Ready, Aim, Dial!», 100% autoproduit qui explore de fond en comble la créativité de ses 4 membres et consolide son identité musicale. Après une période sous-marine en 2017 pour clôturer leurs études, les ParadoxyCall ressortent la tête de l’eau et reviennent plus chauds que jamais! Trève de bavardages, place à la musique!
