A cinq heures cinquante-cinq
|
awake with open eyes
|
a drift upon the night
|
and miles away from land
|
|
five fifty five
|
five fifty five
|
|
a cinq heures cinquante-cinq
|
ante meridiem
|
too late to end it now
|
too early to start again
|
|
five fifty five
|
five fifty five
|
|
soon the morning will arrive
|
can i begin another day
|
whilst this old day is still alive
|
refusing to be put away
|
|
five fifty five
|
no sleep tonight
|
five fifty five
|
|
like a beast awaits its faith
|
laid here with time to kill
|
the very dead of night
|
where time and space stand still
|
|
five fifty five
|
five fifty five
|
|
a cinq heures cinquante-cinq
|
nothing will ever change
|
on the altar of my thought
|
i sacrifice myself again and again and again
|
|
five fifty five
|
five fifty five
|
|
