10538 Overture (alternate album mix)

Did you see your friend crying from his eyes today?
Did you see him run through the streets and far away?
Aah
Did you see him run, did you see him fall?
Did his life flash by at the bedroom door?
Did you hear the news it came across the air today?
Someone has been found on the rocks down in the bay
Ahhh
Did you see him hide, did you see him crawl?
Does his life mean more than it did before?
Did you see that man running through the streets today?
Did you catch his face, was it 10538?
Ahhhh

10538 Ouverture (version alternative de l'album)

As-tu vu ton ami pleurer de ses yeux aujourd'hui ?
L'as-tu vu courir dans les rues et s'enfuir ?
Aah
L'as-tu vu courir, l'as-tu vu tomber ?
Sa vie a-t-elle défilé devant ses yeux à la porte de sa chambre ?
As-tu entendu la nouvelle qui a traversé l'air aujourd'hui ?
On a retrouvé quelqu'un sur les rochers dans la baie
Ahhh
L'as-tu vu se cacher, l'as-tu vu ramper ?
Sa vie compte-t-elle plus qu'avant ?
As-tu vu cet homme courir dans les rues aujourd'hui ?
As-tu vu son visage, était-ce 10538 ?
Ahhhh
