Paroles et traduction Stereolab - Olv 26

Olv 26

Depuis le temps que c'est promis
Nous irons tous au paradis

C'est un appel sourd une promesse
Aveuglante qui noie la conscience

Ce paradis me pèse
Son poids incommensurable abruti

Ancrée dans des strates profondes
Une pulsion des plus aliénantes

Telle une fausse libération
Un état de pure dépendance

Le paradis est derrière moi
Dans le ventre de ma maman

Unchallenged myths
They lie heavy
L'imaginaire
Is our worst enemy
The paradise
What an idea
A guardian
Still on duty

Unchallenged myths
They lie heavy
L'imaginaire
Is our worst enemy
The paradise
What an idea
A guardian
Still on duty

Olv 26

Since it has been promised time and time again
We will all go to paradise

It's a muffled promise, a glaring call
That drowns out our conscience

This paradise weighs me down
Its immeasurable weight dulls my mind

Anchored in profound layers
A pulse that's most alienating

Like a false liberation
A state of pure dependency

Paradise is behind me
In the womb of my mother

Unchallenged myths
They lie heavy
The imagination
Is our worst enemy
The paradise
What an idea
A guardian
Still on duty

Unchallenged myths
They lie heavy
The imagination
Is our worst enemy
The paradise
What an idea
A guardian
Still on duty
