about

'Mesmer' is the third track from Valiant Hearts second full length LP 'Odyssey'.

lyrics

I just want to close my eyes and fall asleep again

I’m still wandering
I’m restless through a world so endless
I’m empty, i’m shapeless
In the end i’ll be timeless
And in the end you’ll be antiquated
And severely outdated

We’ll sail until we see the outside of our galaxy
It looks so serene, that’s where I need to be

Myth and legend both collide
As I turn old and grey on the outside
Burning into particles of light
And this is where space and time
Open up to create a new divide
Right before your very eyes

At first the particles rose high into the sky,
Created all the deities for us to live and die by
Then be reborn in another life
They tried to be formless and let the matter lie
Sunken in silence, we’re stuck in the density of reality

Particles begin to dance and play
In their very own way
‘Cus everything they make
We’re a part of in some way

This is where

Myth and legend both collide
As I turn old and grey on the outside
Burning into particles of light
And this is where space and time
Open up to create a new divide
Right before your very eyes

But your vision starts to fail you
Blurring the line between fact and fiction in your dreams
Now we’ll never know if all is as it seems
So come and take a leap of faith
And get lost with me

It won’t matter if we sail out tomorrow,
Swallowed up by the great abyss
Fact is this fantasy is the realest thing I’ll miss
Run away with me to a place, to a place beyond eternity
We’ll be with them waiting, be with them waiting
To finally see

Myth and legend both collide
As I turn old and grey on the outside
Burning into particles of light
And this is where space and time
Open up to create a new divide
Right before your very eyes

We’ll sail until we see the outside of our galaxy
It looks so serene that’s where I need to be
We’ll sail until we see the outside of our galaxy
It looks so serene that’s where I need to be

I just want to close my eyes and fall asleep again
I just want to close my eyes and fall asleep again
