La Maison Dieu [English translation]

If ten battalions came to my street

And twenty thousand soldiers knocked at my door

Searching for you

I wouldn't say a thing

Because I gave you my word

Your white body already growing hair

Reminds of the time when you were small

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 country that forgot you

The executioner that has tortured you

The general that tore 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 primitive instincts

Perhaps won’t this be

Our last fun moments?

I am the recollection of the terror

Of a shitty revolution

Of shitty generals and a shitty army

No, we can never forget

Nor shall we forgive

I did not pardon anybody

Open your eyes and your heart

Let us be alert

For the terror remains

It 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...
