lyrics

PERSONNE

Personne n’a connu
Le fond de la mer des écumes
Caché inconnu
Dans les grisailles de l’amertume
En silence avancer
Sur les feuilles de l’été
Mortes en automne
On leur pardonne
De nous laisser tomber

Personne n’a fouillé
Le marais des épidémies
De peur de crever
Les yeux ouverts dans l’agonie
Il ne reste d’insolence
Que des miettes d’innocence
Sur le plateau
Servi trop tôt
Beaucoup trop tôt

Personne n’a trouvé
Le lac de la persévérance
Désert asséché
Dans une totale indifférence
À quoi bon éviter
Les hauts fonds agités
Baisser les bras
Se dire tout bas
Que ça sert à rien
