Then he moved to Marseille. Saez spent most of his childhood in Marseille until he moved to Dijon when he was about 8 years old, where he was raised by his Algerian mother, after she got divorced from her Andalusian husband. Later, she met a director of documentaries who works for the French channel 'France 3' and gave birth to Damien's two younger brothers.
At the age of 8, he started piano lessons with Boris Nedeltchev at the Conservatoire National de Région de Dijon and graduated with a diploma 9 years later. He then took an interest in the guitar. His career as a singer began in 1995 when he let his interest in writing come out. He stopped playing in bands that sang covers of more famous bands like Pink Floyd. He wanted to work on his own songs that he had written and try to attract a new audience.
In 1999, a record company became interested in his compositions, and he signed a record contract with Island and began to record his first album Jours étranges which went double platinum. His first single Jeune et con was broadcast on many radio stations and reached the general public, which earned him a nomination for award The Newcomer of the Year' at the Victoires de la Musique in 2001.
In December 2001 his first poetry collection was published entitled À ton nom. In March 2002, he released his second album God Blesse/Katagena. In the meantime he released a piece of instrumental work called Katagena. It was available online via non-official web-sites and downloadable free of charge.
Brian de Palma contacted him and asked him to contribute to the original soundtrack of the movie Femme Fatale that was released in April 2003. The song that was chosen Sexe caused a lot of commotion due to its vulgar lyrics. Many radio stations refused to broadcast it, and the music video was banned from the television.
On April 22nd, 2002, the day after the first round of presidential elections, he wrote a song called Fils de France online, which was meant to be against French right-wing politician Jean-Marie Le Pen who qualified for the second ballot. The song was written and recorded in about 10 hours, then made available for free on the Universal Music's website.
His third album, Debbie, was released in 2004 with a more rock style than the previous albums.
In 2005 he quit Universal Music and went on the Damien Saez: Piano and Voice Tour and developed his own musical style in which his singing was accompanied by three guitars and a piano.

Killing the lambs
Yellow Tricycle Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Heaven's in my hand nothing to pretend how i miss you
There's a part of me i don't wanna be got nothing left to lose
Trying to forget that we ever met how i miss you
I'm a fake with blood on my hands
In a lonely space i'm in chains
I'm heading to the end alone now the shine in your eyes' gone
What the hell am i doing here
Here with only myself to fear

I'm heading to the end alone now the shine in your eyes' gone
I'm sorry that i hurt you babe
But baby we're just who we are
Now the shine in your eyes' gone
I'm beating like a heart of stone
Heading to the end i just need your hand
Help me baby
Standing on the edge looking for a sign of where i went wrong
Demons in my veins here i am again without you baby
In the blur where we're going where everything turns to dust
I don't know i don't care if it's real or not there
'Cause in war i found peace and in you i found me
I suppose you're ok that you don't mind if i stay
Sister don't cry for me i'm back with the wolves
Howling with my friends my only brothers
Running and burning and breathing the spirit of god has fallen upon us
Lost in the silence breaking down heaven's door we're killing the lambs
We're tearing down heaven's door
We're killing the lambs

We're breaking down heaven's door
We're killing the lambs

Heaven's in my hand
Nothing to pretend
How I miss you
There's a part of me
I don't wanna be
Got nothing left to lose
Trying to forget
That we ever met
How I miss you

I'm a fake with blood in my hands
In a lonely space I'm in chains
I'm heading to the end alone
Now the shine in your eyes' gone
What the hell am I doing here ?
With only myself to fear
I'm heading to the end alone
Now the shine in your eye's gone

I'm sorry that I hurt you babe
But babe, we're just who we are
Hey, hey, hey, now the shine in your eye's gone
Hey, hey, hey, I'm beating like a heart of stone

Heading to the end
I just need your hand
Help me baby
Standing on the edge
Looking for a sign
Of where I went wrong
Demons in my veins
Here I am again
Without you baby

In the blur where we're going
Where everything, turns to dust
I don't know, I don't care
If it's real or not there
Cause in war I found peace
And in you, I found me
I suppose you're okay
That you don't mind if I stay

Sister don't cry for me
I'm back with the wolves
Howling with my friends
My only brothers
Running and burning and breathing the spirit of God
Has fallen upon us
Lost in the silence, breaking down heaven's door
We're killing the lambs

Sister don't cry for me
I'm back with the wolves
Howling with my friends
My only brothers left
Running and burning and breathing the spirit of God
Has fallen upon us
Lost in the silence, breaking down heaven's door
We're killing the lambs

We're tearing down heaven's door
We're killing the lambs
We're breaking down heaven's door
We're killing the lambs
