Lyrics and translation Genesis - The Light Dies Down on Broadway
As
he
walks
along
the
gorge's
edge
Alors
qu'il
marche
le
long
du
bord
de
la
gorge
He
meets
a
sense
of
yesteryear
Il
ressent
un
sentiment
d'antan
A
window
in
the
bank
above
his
head
Une
fenêtre
dans
la
banque
au-dessus
de
sa
tête
Reveals
his
home
amidst
the
streets
Révèle
sa
maison
au
milieu
des
rues
Subway
sounds,
the
sounds
of
complaint
Bruits
du
métro,
bruits
de
plaintes
The
smell
of
acid
on
his
gun
of
paint
L'odeur
d'acide
sur
son
pistolet
de
peinture
As
it
carves
out
anger
in
a
blood-red
band
Alors
qu'il
sculpte
la
colère
dans
une
bande
rouge
sang
Destroyed
tomorrow
by
an
unknown
hand
Détruit
demain
par
une
main
inconnue
- My
home
- Ma
maison
Is
this
the
way
out
from
this
endless
scene?
Est-ce
la
voie
de
sortie
de
cette
scène
sans
fin
?
Or
just
an
entrance
to
another
dream?
Ou
juste
une
entrée
dans
un
autre
rêve
?
And
the
light
dies
down
on
Broadway
Et
la
lumière
s'éteint
sur
Broadway
But
as
the
skylight
beckons
him
to
leave
Mais
comme
le
puits
de
lumière
l'invite
à
partir
He
hears
a
scream
from
far
below
Il
entend
un
cri
venant
d'en
bas
Within
the
raging
water,
writhes
the
form
Au
milieu
de
l'eau
rageuse,
se
tord
la
forme
Of
brother
John,
he
cries
for
help
De
mon
frère
John,
il
appelle
à
l'aide
The
gate
is
fading
now,
but
open
wide
La
porte
se
fane
maintenant,
mais
grande
ouverte
But
John
is
drowning,
I
must
decide
Mais
John
se
noie,
je
dois
décider
Between
the
freedom
I
had
in
the
rat-race
Entre
la
liberté
que
j'avais
dans
la
course
de
rats
Or
to
stay
forever
in
this
forsaken
place
Ou
rester
pour
toujours
dans
ce
lieu
désolé
Hey
John!
Hé
John !
He
makes
for
the
river
and
the
gate
is
gone
Il
se
dirige
vers
la
rivière
et
la
porte
a
disparu
Back
to
the
void
where
it
came
from
Retour
au
néant
d'où
il
vient
And
the
light
dies
down
on
Broadway
Et
la
lumière
s'éteint
sur
Broadway
