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 |
