Mylène Farmer - Désenchantée (1991)
Lyrics (in English):
Swimming in the troubled waters
Of days to come
Waiting here for the end
Floating in the heavy air
Of near-nothingness
To whom can you hold out your hand?
If I must fall from on high
May my fall be slow
I have only found peace in indifference
But I would like to recover innocence
But nothing makes sense, and nothing is right
(Chorus)
Everything is chaos!
By comparison
All my ideals:
Broken words
I am searching for a soul
Who will help me
I am From a disillusioned generation
Disillusioned!
Who could keep me
From hearing everything
When reason collapses
Which way to turn
Who can pretend
To lull us in their womb?
If death is a mystery
Then life has no tenderness
If heaven has a hell
Then heaven can wait
Tell me how to handle these headwinds?
Nothing makes sense, everything is falling apart
