Désenchantée [English translation]

Swimming in the troubled waters

Of all the to-morrows

Waiting here for the end

Floating in an air

Too heavy with

Almost nothing

Whose hand to reach out for?

If I must fall from high

Let my fall be slow

I haven't found rest

Except in indifference

And yet, I wish

To find innocence again

But nothing makes sense

And nothing works out

All is chaos around me

All my ideals are but

Shattered words

I search for a kindred spirit

Who might help me through

I am of a disenchanted generation

Disenchanted...

Who can stop me

Hearing all this noise?

When reason collapses

Which haven shall I fly to?

Who can step forward

To comfort us?

If death is a mystery

Life has nothing to offer

If the sky has a hell

Then the sky can well wait for me

Tell me how to find my way

Through all these headwinds

Nothing makes any sense

Nothing works any more

All is chaos around me

All my ideals are but

Shattered words

I search for a kindred spirit

Who might help me through

I am of a disenchanted generation

Disenchanted...

All is chaos around me

All my ideals are but

Shattered words

I search for a kindred spirit

Who might help me through

I am of a disenchanted generation

Disenchanted...
