The incredible secret 06:32
lyrics

So many years ago Was born the “Renaissance Ark” Hanging on the sky Far from the fatal fate, The interstellar craft Badly worries for the earth These days, in any discretion Ending the huge construction And like a great steel dove, Ready to take off, The hope of all mankind Suspended on its flight The « Renaissance Ark » is ready To save humanity In space, we’ll have to flee Everything remains to be rebuilt Yes, everything to be rebuilt Right now on earth The selections are ending The professions are chosen To keep the bare necessities For a total autonomy To live in complete autarky Odyssey will be extended Who will save humanity pitfalls will be defeated What will be their destiny What will be the destination For those couple’s évasion. The « Renaissance Ark » is ready To save humanity In space, we’ll have to flee Everything remains to be rebuilt Yes, everything to be rebuilt

Heart breaker 06:14
lyrics

Today is fantastic day Slowly the sun rises far away Finally the long night ends We still have to make illusion to do not awake suspicion for Avoiding panic movement Now everything is different It's a very important event In front of us a wall of white shuttles The last humanity's hope The countdown can go on six, five, four, three, two, one, go in pains in true way A truly heart breaker The earth spit its guts In a deep cloud of smoke Spaceships come alive Slowly they flew away Chorus: We kept the project secret to achieve a great success We shouldn't have any regrets Since we had only to run away Now the earth moves away Behind us, streaks arrive stretching , tear the sky Weaving a lace network Far from us the earth on fire Only bright spots remain Now the ark appears The project is real The humanity hope in front of us is revealed In space we could flee everything could be rebuilt Chorus: We kept the project secret to achieve a great success We shouldn't have any regrets Since we had only to run away

Like a gigantic cathedral Made of tears and metal In front of us the ark is standing Hang on to the celestial vault A strange fresh air caresses us Removing all sources of stress Inside the imposing vessel Standing up without a word Humbly and proudly In front of the mankind hope Suspended seems the time Solemn are these moments the Ark is well born To save humanity Our time is over Space is our future Like Noah in his time The essentials for life With care has been selected Arranged, installed, assembled To accomplish our quest Find a new planet Everything is already in ship Obviously thousands animals At least their DNA For plants, only their seeds Thousands of sleeping settlers Finally a seasoned crew the Ark is well born To save humanity Our time is over Space is our future

No noise disturbs the sleep of the settlers. Only the noise of the thrusters disturbs this heavy silence. The ark has been in space for centuries now. In the unknown universe, always looking for the Earth's twin sister. Will we ever find this famous planet Alert, alert, a solar storm is announced Solar flares send us gusts that will soon hit the ship Alert, Alert, the crew is awaited at the controls. Calm seems to be back No damage to report Everything is operationnal The journey can resume its course Hope no further problem will arise

The dreaded scenario Has benn fulfilled Life on doesn't exist anymore Has the earth given up? Did they tear themselves to survive? Have they started a final war? Will we one day know? Chorus What happened to Earth? She remains silent Deaf to our demands Now we are realy alone

Difficult to define the state of mind where we are We are both curious and impatient but worried too What are we going to find? Who are we going to meet? Will we be really welcomed? Should we beware? Chorus Even in our wildest dreams we could not hope for so much To build a new life For a second chance How nice to see vegetation Everything seems there for life But It's strange, there is no noise except the wind in the leaves Let's move on, maybe we'll find answers to our questions. This planet may have a heavy secret to reveal to us. Chorus Even in our wildest dreams we could not hope for so much To build a new life For a second chance

about

This CD is my second "concept album" where I tell a story. And
for this I decided to add songs because it is easier to tell a story
with words than only with music. And for the first time too, I sing...
but I had help from a friend Charles ORTICONI who sings too.

So: this is the story of the end of time on Earth and the rescuing
of mankind thanks to the Interstellar Renaissance Ark that must
go into space in an attempt to save mankind.

In the year 2924, humanity is living its last hours on Earth. For over
a thousand years, people have neglected the earth. Pollution has
warmed the atmosphere. The polar ice has melted, breaking the
balance of the tectonic plates; Repeated earthquakes, erupting
volcanoes. The oceans have cooled, the climatic balance is
compromised; Hurricanes and storms have multiplied; Floods in
the north, rising water erodes the continents; drought in the south,
gigantic fires, burnt crops, famine. But also ; overpopulation,
epidemics multiply, exodus of the peoples of the south, wars break
out.

Too late, life will soon be no longer possible on Earth.

Orario 221, a spaceship pilot, is at the heart of the story, tells us what
he lives in this project.

For years, in the greatest of secrecy, a gigantic spaceship has been
being built orbiting the Earth. It will be able to transport thousands of
couples, chosen for their skills, their profession but also their ethnicity.
They will have to sail in space, several generations will follow one ,
in search of a planet that can accommodate them in order to
save humanity.

What will they find? This is the story of: THE EARTH IS DYING
or the interstellar Ark's epic journey

These are the basics of the concept album. So certainly this beginning
of the scenario has already been exploited but I think that the sequel
is original and that the epilogue is unexpected. Humanity's salvation
will come from outer space
