L'abattoir [English translation]

Burst by so many years into rags of memory

Which flutter as bleak flags in the sky of my empire

And that is nothing but dust with you

Lost connections, left to the satellites

Which depart from my heart, pulsating frequencies

And mobiles in place of letters

You see, I'm not sure whether advancement

Can always prevent men from ending up alone

You see nothing but people splitting up

But that's the world and that's life

We're all running towards the end that unites us

Like flocks

To the slaughter

I'm asking you to end me!

I cannot die from it any more

I'm asking you to end me!

I lost my smile

Since no nothing more, no nothing more means anything

How can we claim to say

That we're worth it

In the street there's just another drunk

Crying out mankind's stupidity while

I'm writing you as many stupid things as he does

Soon the garbagemen will collect the trash

Between two containers I'll give them this writing

It couldn't end up in better hands

Love is unreliable and us, the sad reliable

Burn in love and we burn our wings

Sad calves

To the slaughter

I'm asking you to end me!

I can't escape any longer

I'm going crazy, you know

Like a loser

And I know that I'm somber with my sad songs

I annoy this world but it benefits me

That's as if we were even somehow

You, the other one I loved, I'm asking you now

To finish the work that you've begun

But with a smile, please

No, don't feel guilty when killing me

You know, before you I used to stomp on hearts

That saw in me what I though to see in you

From hangman to savor, from lamb to vampire

We're all one day this, the next one that, that's the game

Which kills us but

But which lets us live

I'm asking you to write me

Tell me what's the news

When I'm down there someday

Send them to the sky!

I'm asking you to write me

Tell me what's the news

When I'm down there someday

I'm asking you to write me
