Elan |
These are the gasping death throes now |
Into the final fight that I might know |
I feel a rush of blood like thunder in my veins |
The only fear that’s left is left alive but maimed |
Rush them and fight to death |
I hold my breath and pray for more |
The sea of tears and tattered banners |
Just like a prophecy, a prophecy that failed |
The sea of tears and tattered banners |
Our hearts cry out as one, and beat like drums of god |
Our elan |
We all inhale the smoke and fog |
My brisk and youthful self has long been gone |
The song of musket fire is playing to our fears |
As silhouettes of men so suddenly appear |
Pierced and shocked but I survive |
We’re falling back now, like the ocean tide |
Hearts of iron, squares of Old Guard |
Fight like lions for the French retreat |
I will not be silenced, I will not be caged |
Take apart the man who built this stage |
Ils ne passeront pas, we shall never yield |
Despite the loss on the battlefield |
Je ne cedrais jemais, they shall never pass |
Protect the fall-back, we must make it last |
General Cambronne is captured now |
Repel their advance, show the English how |
True men fight till collapse, defend their kin |
The French are falling, hear the wounded cry |
Back to home at Malmaison |
Back to the calm before my storm |
Fantasize of life anew, dream of life across the sea |
There must be something for me there |
Science and exploration call |
Could I be slightly out of mind? |
Surely Prometheus can’t fly |
Into my final resting place, call me general to push disgrace |
When springtime falls back into winter |
Just like a prophecy, a prophecy that failed |
Will auburn sunsets weep for me? |
I steel my heart and sigh, then walk into the black |
My elan |
