Among The Dead

I stand here
Prisoner of the present
God of the future
But slave of the past.

The path has been long
It's been a hard way
From the very first cell
To my divine being.

Our names are built
Upon a long trail of corpses
Generation after generation
A mountain of bones and ashes.

The path has been long
It's been a hard way
From the very first cell
To my divine being.

They all look at me
From their dusty grave
I can feel their eyes
Staring at us all from beyond.

I'm buried under the weight of my ancestors
Their Silent screams resound all around my soul.

I stand here
Prisoner of the present
God of the future
But slave of the past.

The path has been long
It s been a hard way
From the very first cell
To my divine being.

Now let us live
No one wants to dream.

Of an infinite fields
Of blood, corpses and bones
Of a giant graveyard
Made of skulls and regrets.

Now I just want
To forget my legacy
I need to give birth
To a new branch.

Is this our goal?

Our only mission
Driven by our genes
Giving birth to the dead.

When my time will have come
To say goodbye to those
Who came alone with me
On this long and strange way.

Let me fill another grave
In a peaceful garden
Besides those who have one day
Cross the road of my agony.

Comme les millions qui m'ont précédé.

Je vais maintenant ouvrir cette porte
Emmènerai avec moi pour ce long voyage
Des souvenirs de rires et de pleurs.

Je me rappellerai nos conflits
Nos haines et nos désirs de mort
Tout ce aue l'on m'a infligé
Je saurai l'oublier.

J'ai été tiré du néant
J'ai été parmi les vivants
Vivre et mourir avec eux
Adieu.
