L’Avenue des Cœurs Passés (La Marche Funèbre - part I)

A somber view... of dying love 
The air breathes pain and loss 

I walk on dirty cobbles… 
Shimmering of old tears 
I walk on buried joy… 
Drowned hopes and shattered dreams 

Je me promène sur l’avenue des cœurs passés 
Et j’y trouve des belles âmes blessées 
Je me promène sur l’avenue des cœurs cassés 
La chaussée des larmes et des cœurs brisés… 

At my left I see a young woman 
Struggling for happiness 
Her child cries my name 
Until my ears bleed and my heart dies 

Another tragedy somewhere on the right 
Mother of some of my prettiest dreams 
Her heart in her hand – Her eyes look at me 
Black from unstoppable sadness 

Others appear… all beautiful creatures 
Once dancing as fairies under the moon 
As succubae in rapture… with me 
But I left without love… 

Je me promène sur l’avenue des cœurs passés 
Et j’y trouve des belles âmes blessées 
Je me promène sur l’avenue des cœurs cassés 
La chaussée des larmes et des cœurs brisés… 

Their pain is mine 
Their broken hearts 
Their shattered dreams 
Are mine 

In my dreams they haunt me 
Angel claws tear my skin
Their grief is now mine
Leaving me… scarred and wrecked 

I know I’ll have to bury 
These fragile dreams of love 
So deep… so deep… 
I wipe away my tears and walk on… 
To my sad past’s funeral…

Gone

Are we made to bend or break?
Are we bound to rise and fall?
Are we born to live or die?
Are we born… to die?

Questions without answers
I choose my own fate
I follow my own path
From ashes I rose, only dust will remain

When will my eyes close forever?
When will my blood stop streaming?
When will my heart beat no more?
When will my breath… be gone?

Gone is my will to live
The superficial joy of life
Doesn’t reach my heart no more

Gone are my dreams ‘n fantasies
Only one wish remains
The quest for my last breath

When will my eyes close forever?
When will my blood stop streaming?
When will my heart beat no more?
When will my breath… be gone?

I sentenced myself to die
To lay my head and never to move again
I sentenced myself to go
From where no man ever returned
