A MUSICAL STORY IN CHAPTERS
I.
I'm facing the Lighthouse then
ENTERING THE VOID
Dusk melancholy on my dark and barren island…
I enter the Lighthouse;
I rest. But the walls reveal strange phosphorescences...
Panic over the radio waves!

01 I'm facing the Lighthouse then entering the void
00:00 / 00:59
II.
Spinning up the stairs into the
INFINITE DARK
Up the lighthouse stairs:
in the dark, silhouettes graze my shoulder…

02 Spinning up the stairs into the infinite dark
00:00 / 01:06
III.
Sweeping in the sweet nectar,
WATCH OUT
On the gallery at last;
Outside, the storm’s fury.
Shrill cries fly over the Lighthouse,
calling back and forth, an infernal chorus.
My blood runs cold
and then,
and then,
a sweetness takes me…

03 Sweeping in the sweet nectar, watch out !
00:00 / 00:52
IV.
HALLUCINATIONS
Back in the Lighthouse;
I enter it in the logbook:
a storm so strange,
immense darkness
taking hold of the ocean’s metronomic light, where am I?
The air is so heavy…
Now I see whales.
The distorted echo of their song takes me,
sirens…
I plunge into thick water;
lights everywhere, surrounding me,
the dark seabed trembles;
a ripping cry drags me upward!
I WANT TO DROWN.

ECHOES OF MEMORY
Terrified, I descend the Lighthouse,
I lift a hatch;
a few steps,
a tunnel,
and far away a restless light:
the ocean, again and again…
Every memory returns,
CRUEL NOSTALGIA!
And that splendid sea
reaching for me, arms wide open…
