(C minor) Je vois que beaucoup de gens meurent
Parce qu'ils es (E flat major) timent que la vie ne vaut
pas la peine d'être vécue
(C minor) J'en vois d'autres, (B flat major) qui se font
paradoxale (G major) ment
(C minor) pour des idées
Pour des illusi (E flat major) ons,
qui leurs donnent une raison de vivre
(C minor) Ce, qu'on appelle une raison de vivre
est en même temps (B flat major) une
excellente (G major) raison de mourir

Re (C minor) member the pact (B flat major) of our (C minor) youth (B flat major)
Where (C minor) you go, I'm (B flat major) going,

But (C minor) love the sweet (B flat major) air of the (A flat major) votives (B flat major)
(C minor) Hurt and (B flat major) grieve but don't (C minor) suffer alone (B flat major)
En (C minor) gage with the (B flat major) pain as a (A flat major) motive
To (A flat minor) day, of all (E flat major) days, (A flat major) see

A (C minor) chilles, A (B flat major) chilles, A (C minor) chilles, jump (B flat major) now
You are (C minor) absent of cause (B flat major) or ex (C minor) cuse (B flat major)
(C minor) So self-in (B flat major) dulgent and (F minor) self-referential (B flat major)
No (C minor) audience could (B flat major) ever want you (C minor) (B flat major)
You (C minor) crave the applause (B flat major)
yet (C minor) hate the at (B flat major) tention
Then (C minor) miss it, your (B flat major) act is a ruse (C minor) (B flat major)

Interlude 3
(C minor) Ce qui déclenche la crise
est presque toujours (E flat major) incontrôlable
Les journaux (C minor) parlent souvent
de chagrins intimes ou de (B flat major) maladie incurable (G major)
Ces (C minor) explications sont valables
Mais il faud (E flat major) rait savoir si le jour même un ami
Du (C minor) désespéré ne lui a pas
parlé sur un ton indifférent (B flat major)
Celui- (G major) là est le
Verse 4

(C minor) put down the bottle (B flat major)
Don't (C minor) listen to what (B flat major)
you've consumed (C minor) (B flat major)
It's (C minor) chaos, con (B flat major) fusion
and (F minor) wholly un (B flat major) worthy
Of (C minor) feeding and it's (B flat major) wholly untrue (C minor) (B flat major)
You (C minor) may feel no (B flat major) purpose
nor a (C minor) point for ex (B flat major) isting
It's (C minor) all just conjecture (B flat major) and gloom (C minor) (B flat major)

so (A flat major) find one and (B flat major) seize it
Do (C minor) not waste your (B flat major) self on this (C minor) roof (B flat major)

And (C minor) see life as a (B flat major) worthy oppo (A flat major) nent
To (A flat minor) day, of all (E flat major) days, (A flat major) see
Chorus 2
(G major) How the most (A flat major) dangerous (B flat major) thing is to (E flat major) love
(G major) How you will (A flat major) heal and you'll (B flat major) rise a (E flat major) bove

(G major) Ah, it's more cou (A flat major) rageous (B flat major) to over (E flat major) come
Les souvenirs d'une patrie perdue,
l'espoir d'une terre promise (C7sus4)
Ce divorce entre l'homme de sa vie
Bridge 1
You (E flat major) want the acclaim, the mother of mothers
More (C7sus4) poignant than fame
or the taste of another
But be (E flat major) real and just jump,
you dense motherfucker
You will (C7sus4) not be more than a rat in the gutter
You (E flat major) want my opinion, my opinion you've got
You (C7sus4) asked for my counsel,
I gave you my thoughts
Be (E flat major) done with this now and jump off the roof
Can you (C7sus4) hear me, Achilles?
I'm talking to (E flat major) you
I'm talking (C7sus4) to you
I'm talking (A flat major) to you
I'm talking (G major) to you
Achilles, come (A flat major) down
Achilles, come (F minor) down
(A flat major) (A flat major) (E flat major) (E flat major)
(A flat major) (A flat major) (E flat major) (E flat major)
Interlude 4
(C minor) Celle du oui et celle du non
Ce serait (E flat major) trop beau
Mais il faut faire la (C minor) part de ceux qui,
sans conclure, (B flat major) interrogent toujours
(G major) Ici, j'ironi (C minor) se à peine, il s'agit de la majorité (E flat major)
Je vois également que
ceux (C minor) qui répondent non
agissent comme s'ils (B flat major) pensaient oui (G major)
Pre-chorus 3
De fait
(C minor) Throw your (E flat major) self in (C minor) to the un (B flat major) known
With (C minor) pace and a (B flat major) fury defiant (A flat major) (B flat major)
(C minor) Clothe your (B flat major) self in (C minor) beauty untold (B flat major)
And (C minor) see life as a (B flat major) means to a (A flat major) triumph
To (A flat minor) day, of all (E flat major) days, (A flat major) see
Chorus 3
(G major) How the most (A flat major) dangerous (B flat major) thing is to (E flat major) love
(G major) How you will (A flat major) heal and you'll (B flat major) rise a (E flat major) bove
(G major) Crowned by an (A flat major) overture (B flat major) bold and be (E flat major) yond
(G major) Ah, it's more cou (A flat major) rageous (B flat major) to over (E flat major) come
