La Maison Dieu [English translation]
La Maison Dieu [English translation]
If ten battalions came to my street
And 20 thousand soldiers knocked at me door
Searching for you
I wouldn't say a thing
For I have given you my word
Your white body soon growing hair
Reminds a time when you were young
I do not intend to take advantage
And anyway, who comes
Back home alone is me
Sex buys money and company
But never love and friendship, I guess
And after a rough day
I thought I saw you
Come through my window and say:
- I am your death
I came to talk to you
I came to ask you for shelter
I need your heat
I am
I am
I am the coutry that forgot you
The executioner that has tortured you
The general that tored your eyes
The innocent blood
Of all the missing ones
The electric shocks and the screaming
- Stop, please, it hurts!
I am
I am
I am your death
And I came to visit you as a friend
We must flirt with danger
Follow our primitve istincts
Perhaps this will be
Our last fun moments
I am the memory of terror
Of a fucking revolution
Of fucking generals and a fucking army
No, we can never forget
Nor shall we forgive
I did not pardon anybody
Open your eyes and your heart
Be alert
For terror remains
It has just changed its smell
And its uniform
I am your death
And I wish you well
Forget the world, I came to explain what will come
For I am
I am
I am...
