FEEL LIKE TRIPPIN'

Feel like travellin' million light years 
On a motionless journey 
Feel like I'd end up in an asylum 
Feel like I'm falling in a hole up in the sky

Feel like I'm goin' so low down 
Feel like I am insane 
Feel like I'm goin' so low down, 
low down ...

There's day outside, open the window, 
Don't get so closed at home ! 
Let the sunshine inside of your eyes, 
What's going on outside ? ...

Why are all these people running around ? 
What's the melody humming inside ? 
Why are all these people running around ? 
They're running around, and I feel like trippin' 
And I feel like trippin' 
And I feel like trippin'

I feel ... like ... trippin', I'm trippin' ... 
I feel ... like ... trippin', I'm trippin' ...

Feel Like Trippin' by Heaven [France]

HYPOCRISY

When your smile is falling on your knees. 
When the fire is taking on your lees. 
When you run for cover all you see's...
What the people call... Hypocrisy...

The first version of the song appeared on Heaven's first self-titled demo, recorded in October'1995 with:

PILLS (a.k.a. PILLS & THRILLS)

Well I know that you have a lot of thrills, 
When you go out on saturday and take your pills. 
Well you know what I told you, 
One day you will have to stop before it's too late, 
Before it's too late! Yeah!...

No you don't really need such a drug
If you want to go dance all night in a nite-club!  
You look so paranoid, you act like a thug. 
You look like a rag. Oh! What a drag! 


Music & lyrics written by Arnaud Schmitz. 
Recorded by the last line-up of Heaven in April 2002. 
First released by Number Nine Experiment on the first EP: "No Time To Waste" (2004):

Originally written for Heaven, this song was played very often by different line-ups of Number Nine Experiment in concerts and was always featured on the tracklists through the years. 
It remained that way with Pentastar. In january 2008 they re-recorded it for their first LP: "Electrical Wire Chopped Inside": 

HOLE IN THE SKY

I hit my head against the walls, but I don't feel the pain. 

I take a look at all these colours, but now it seems so pale. 

I miss the girl that I don't know. Oh! I miss her so! ... 

But I'll get high, dig that hole in the sky. 

I keep on watering inner flowers, as if it would not fade. 

I keep on listening to all their words, as long as I can stand it. 

But don't you know that I'm dying slowly, and you will rot with me. 

But I'll get high, dig that hole in the sky. 

Music & lyrics written by Arnaud Schmitz. 2001. 

This song was written to be interpreted with my band of the era: Heaven. 

The song was played only once in public by the band (in an instrumental version), opening a concert in St. Avold, in August 2001. A demo (with vocals) was recorded with the last line-up of Heaven (without Jeff) in April 2002. 

After the split of the band, the recording was released on the first EP by Number Nine Experiment: "No Time To Waste" (2004). There are two live versions by Number Nine Experiment on: "Jam Sessions at the Irish Bar" (2006). 

A video was designed for the song by Arnaud, and directed by one of his friends, Michel, in June 2002.
