lyrics

Alchimie
(J.P. Mercier/ J.P.Mercier)

Le contre-courant persévère
Déjà que ce n’est pas facile de résister
Et comme j'erre entre ciel et terre
Je doute pouvoir un jour m'arrêter

Non, ce n'est pas facile de changer d’air
D’autant plus qu’on hésite à l'inspirer
Il y a moins d'espace que d'hommes sur terre
Juste assez pour pouvoir y dériver

On conjure, mais tout bas
Glissant lentement sous ses pas

Non, ce n’est tout de même pas… comme si
L’espoir d’une simple… éclaircie
Allait me sauver des insomnies
Pas sans alchimie

Ça se couvre encore à perdre le nord
On dit que c'est plus facile que d'insister
Exit l'aurore multicolore
En sentences que je rêve de ponctuer

On conjure, mais tout bas,
En sombrant dans ses bras

Non, ce n’est tout de même pas… comme si
le simple espoir d'une… autre vie
Allait nous faire passer la nuit
Sans alchimie

This is, once again, a masterpiece. I have been a fan since the beginning and continue to absolutely love the sound and feeling that comes from HOS songs. My only dream would be to experience a live show. jc jwcentanni

The Four Winds (EP)
by Handful of Snowdrops

supported by 17 fans who also own “Alchimie”

Have been HOS for a long long time since Land of the Damned was released and has been one of my favorite bands ever since. When HOS fade out, it was sad but then HOS came back with III and with NOIR and now with THE FOUR WINDS ep, and I cant be more happy. Four winds is an amazing song that continues to build up on the amazing tracks that HOS and JP Mercier had created for years. Thanks JP and HOS for the music and for sharing it with your fans. Big applause from Mexico City. arturo jara

The Impossible Dream (EP)
by Handful of Snowdrops

supported by 17 fans who also own “Alchimie”

WOW!!! AMAZING! You did it again. I think this ep is the best of the batch (dont get me wrong I love four winds and assymetrical also) favorite track - The impossible dream Now... as a kind of farewell It is sad to know HOS will go to a halt. It is unfair that such a talented band and members have to put away their dreams and their music. I wish we could have done more to keep the dream alive. thanks for land of the damned, dans l'oeil de la tempete, mort en direct III, Noir, Blanc, for all. arturo jara
