Et le reste

Will they forgive for what is left to them?
Will they know drunkenness like us?
The children we will leave here below
What will they do with what is bequeathed to them?
Of this world we took for a test
Will they be able to bloom again with joy?
For love, tenderness and the rest
 
What did we do to make it all stop?
Devils of sloth giants
Why haven't we done like you?
You who give for the beauty of the gesture
High as three apples you aim for Evrest
And I know you will get there
For love, tenderness and the rest
 
A life in search of rightness
For two-speed justice
So much bitterness, anger don't me
I smile in vain, there's a kind of discomfort
To live is to walk on the embers
Bruises to my soul I have some but I believe in it
For love, tenderness and the rest
Everything else
 
We can cover ourselves with medals
Our memories without retaliation
Who will be able to say that he did not know?
Since here the world turns upside down
I can count the setbacks
I would beg to rewrite it all
For love, tenderness and the rest
And the rest
 
Forgive me for not being able to do more
I don't get off at the terminus
And the journey goes on without me
May it be soft as a caress
Here I know my words hurt
I hope one day we will meet again
For love, tenderness and the rest
And the rest
