Cassandra
Au bout de la rue, tous chantent et crient. Survivant alors même que la citée est morte Cachant leurs hontes derrière des rires creux Pendant que tu pleures toute seule dans ton lit Pauvre Cassandra, que personne ne croyait D'un autre côté, tu étais perdue d'avance. Maintenant il nous faut souffrir et livrer nos secrets (1) Marchander, ruser, souffrir dans nos cœurs. (1) [REFRAIN] Désolé Cassandra je me suis trompé Maintenant le dernier jour se termine Certains d'entre nous auraient voulu, mais aucun n'a pu Écouter tes avertissements. Mais dans l'obscurité de la nuit. Personne ne savait se battre. Et nous avons été pris dans notre sommeil. Désolé Cassandra, je ne te croyais pas. Tu avais vraiment le pouvoir Je n'y voyais qu'un rêve que tu voulais tisser Jusqu'à la dernière heure. Ainsi au matin, ton bateau partira Maintenant que ton père et ta sœur s'en sont allés Tu n'as pas de raisons de t'attarder. Tu es profondément affligée, mais avance tout de même Tu sais que l'avenir projette une ombre. Nul autre ne le vois, mais tu connais ton destin. Emballant tes bagages, lentement et consciencieusement. Sachant, bien que tu sois en retard, que ce bateau t'attendras [REFRAIN] Je regardais le bateau, quitter le port à l'aube Les voiles presque immobiles sous la pluie fraîche du matin. Elle se tenait debout sur pont, une silhouette minuscule. Rigide et fermée, les yeux bleus remplis de peine. Désolé Cassandra Désolé Cassandra
Cassandra
Down in the street they’re all singing and shouting Staying alive though the city is dead Hiding their shame behind hollow laughter While you are crying alone in your bed Pity Cassandra that no one believed you But then again you were lost from the start Now we must suffer and sell our secrets Bargain, playing smart, aching in our hearts Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood Now the last day is dawning Some of us wanted but none of us could Listen to words of warning But on the darkest of nights Nobody knew how to fight And we were caught in our sleep Sorry Cassandra I didn’t believe You really had the power I only saw it as dreams you would weave Until the final hour So in the morning your ship will be sailing Now that your father and sister are gone There is no reason for you to linger You’re grieving deeply but still moving on You know the future is casting a shadow No one else sees it but you know you’re fate Packing your bags, being slow and thorough Knowing, though you’re late, that ship is sure to wait Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood Now the last day is dawning Some of us wanted but none of us could Listen to words of warning But on the darkest of nights Nobody knew how to fight And we were caught in our sleep Sorry Cassandra I didn’t believe You really had the power I only saw it as dreams you would weave Until the final hour I watched the ship leaving harbor at midnight Sails almost slack in the cool morning rain She stood on deck, just a tiny figure Rigid and restrained, blue eyes filled with pain Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood Now the last day is dawning Some of us wanted but none of us could Listen to words of warning But on the darkest of nights Nobody knew how to fight And we were caught in our sleep Sorry Cassandra I didn’t believe You really had the power I only saw it as dreams you would weave Until the final hour I’m sorry Cassandra I’m sorry Cassandra
