Lyrics Les Deracines - Rome

Les Deracines

This is no complaint — You either retreat to the rear
Where you watch still in fear — Cut off from choice
Or you voice your anger
Outside defenseless behind the fences
Braving the fumes — The noble one resumes the fight
Though still in flight
And you nourish little patches of ground
And put no fences around
To gather things towards you
And if only for me, please, hold your fire
And hide your fires at night
And if only for me, please — Sink your crowns now
And drown your bells inside of me
So gather around — around
Look inside — to be found
So gather around — around
Look inside — to be found
Now keep the rage and lose the rest
Hold on and give it your best shot — And do it now
Your hesitant songs, your fearful songs
Will not put them to the test — anyhow
And if only for me, please, hold your fire
And hide your fires at night
And if only for me, please
Sink your crowns now
And drown your bells inside of me
So gather around — around
Look inside — to be found
So gather around — around
Look inside — to be found
Oh, I never thought I’d see it — But you belong to me
Like the shame to the retreat
Oh, I never thought I’d see it
But you fill yourself indeed
With what you destroy in me
So gather around — around
Look inside — to be found
D’abord — il y avait la colere — Et puis
Il y avait notre promesse — De ne pas perdre le feu
De vivre debout — et en movement
