neW lyRiCkS!

the song's called 'en attendant... (deux)'. the first part's like a little instrumental piece. i've been doing a lot of instrumental stuff recently because my uncle has offered me the potential position of scoring one of his short films (!?). so i've been doing like really quiet, mood pieces. below is part two. french to english translations provided.

on a loaded ship
with a baseball bat
i wait.

Death, we are not afraid
on this, our Judgment Day
So come.

Fight back best we know
with our guns, bats, stones
venez-y. (come here.)

No food for three days
All those who remain
are tired.

Frenchmen sing a prayer
"Oh mon Dieu, mon Père (oh my God, my Father)
Pourquoi (why)

Avez-Vous me faire ça? (did you do this to me?)
Pourquoi
Avez-Vous me faire ça?"

En Vous attendant... (waiting for you)
En Vous attendant...
toujours. (always)
