Ugh. Awful. Here:

We can reach the sea They won't follow me The shadows they fear the sun We'll make it if we run!

Run from the memory Je nage, mais les sons me suivent (I swim, but the sound follows me)

Left my name with the border guards A name I don’t need Ce sera un long voyage (This will be a long voyage) Sur les vagues de l'oubli (On the waves of oblivion)

Run from the memory Je nage, mais les sons me suivent (I swim, but the sounds follow me)

Stop now before it's too late Been eating in the ghetto on a hundred dollar plate Nothing lasts forever that's the way it’s gotta be There's a great black wave in the middle of the sea (for me)

Stop now before it's too late Been eating in the ghetto on a hundred dollar plate Nothing lasts forever that's the way it’s gotta be There's a great black wave in the middle of the sea

For me For you For me It's always for you

Stop now before it's too late Been eating in the ghetto on a hundred dollar plate Nothing lasts forever that's the way its gonna be There's a great black wave in the middle of the sea (for me)

Stop now before it's too late Your lover was for hire, have you noticed he's been late? Nothing lasts forever that's the way it’s gotta be There's a great black wave in the middle of the sea

For me For you For me It's always for you

The sound is not asleep It's moving under my feet
