lyrics

OLV 26

Depuis le temps que c'est promis
nous irons tous au paradis
c'est un appel sourd une promesse
aveuglante qui noie la conscience
ce paradis me pËse, son poids
incommensurable abruti
ancrÈe dans des strates profondes
une pulsion des plus aliÈnantes
telle une fausse libÈration
un Ètat de pure dÈpendance
le paradis est derriËre moi
dans le ventre de ma maman
unchallenged myths, they lie heavy
l'imaginaire is our worse enemy
the paradise, what an idea
a guardian still on duty

translation
Ever since it's been promised
we'll all go to heaven
it's a deaf summon
a blinding promise that drowns the conscience
this paradise weighs heavy
it's immeasureable weight stupefies
anchored in deep layers
a most alientating pulsation
and like a false liberation
a state of pure addiction
the paradise is behind me
in my mother's womb
unchallenged myths they lie heavy
the imaginary is our worst enemy
the paradise, what an idea
a guardian still on duty
