Lyrics :

You tell everybody you're ok.
You tell there's nothing wrong on your way.
But you drank glasses of Jack all night long.
And everything in your life seems so wrong.

Maybe you don't realize that your world's falling apart.
Maybe it's too late to cry, and your new life just has to start.

Followed by your past, you try to sleep, you try to leave it.
It will be so hard, it's in your skin, it's in your skin.
Followed by your past, you don't even know what future means.
Stand up, don't give up, it's time to live, it's time to live.

You spend all your time watching the sky.
Looking for the strength, the missing light.
You just wanna fix your broken heart.
And try to make your days brighter, easier.

Maybe it's enough for you, too much scars and too much pain.
Sometimes the stars are hidden, but don't let tears flow on your face.

Followed by your past, you try to sleep, you try to leave it.
It will be so hard, it's in your skin, it's in your skin.
Followed by your past, you don't even know what future means.
Stand up, don't give up, it's time to live, it's time to live.

Look in front of you, take a deep breath and fly to paradise.
Make your dream come true, raise you up and just let shine your smile.

Followed by your past, you try to sleep, you try to leave it.
It will be so hard, it's in your skin, it's in your skin.
Followed by your past, you don't even know what future means.
Stand up, don't give up, it's time to live, it's time to live.

Followed by your past, you try to sleep, you try to leave it.
It will be so hard, it's in your skin, it's in your skin.
Followed by your past, you don't even know what future means.
Stand up, don't give up, it's time to live, it's time to live.

léa. - "Followed By Your Past" - (september 2013)

No no she‘s a weight
I’ve to carry again
I‘d like to run away
But she’s faster than my legs!

No no I dare say
That it’s a big mistake
I had swore I would stop
“Never no more” that’s my only words

Well it’s stronger than my will
I really try to resist
But when she kisses my lips
I can only remember

I feel younger / Life’s getting better
One more illusion To burn!

No no I’m her slave
She’s running in my veins
No I don’t want your help!
Have two fingers on my fate!

No no that’s a way
To keep at a distance
Five minutes with myself
I need to relax for a moment!

Well it’s stronger than my will
I really try to resist
But when she kisses my lips
I can only remember

I feel younger / Life’s getting better
One more illusion To burn!

Five minutes more with her!

I feel younger/ Life’s getting better
One more illusion /One last direction
Direct to heaven /Life’s getting shorter
Five minutes with her to burn!
