Désenchantée [English translation]

Swimming in troubled waters

Of the days after

Waiting here for the end

Floating in the almost...

...empty atmosphere

Who do I reach my hand to?

If I have to fall from high

Let my fall be slow

I only found peace

In detachment

Although, I would like to find innocence again

But nothing makes sense, and nothing is going well

All is chaos

Off the mark

All my ideals:

Damaged words

I’m looking for a soul, that

Can help me

I’m part

Of a disillusioned generation

Disillusioned

Who could stop me

From hearing everything

When reason is collapsing

Which breast must I devote myself to

Who can claim

To carry us in their womb?

If death’s a mystery

Life is everything but easy

If there’s a hell in the sky

The sky will have to wait for me

Tell me,

In these adverse winds, how to go about it

But nothing makes sense, and nothing is going well

All is chaos

Off the mark

All my ideals:

Damaged words

I’m looking for a soul, that

Can help me

I’m part

Of a disillusioned generation

Disillusioned

All is chaos

Off the mark

All my ideals:

Damaged words

I’m looking for a soul, that

Can help me

I’m part

Of a disillusioned generation

Disillusioned
