Original lyrics
French
Translation
Conscience
Conscience
I am the pleasant lie
Your way out when the truth eats at you
I am your ideal weapon
I will erase the line between good and bad
I am the one who speaks for you
The one who begs quietly to make the good choice
I will never go and tell you to think twice before acting
My conscience sways
between crazy and an angel
it wants to set fire
possess my soul
that's ready to burn to spare me from tears
i am the easy way
Why walk around when you can cut the line
i am power and rage
Never prisoner, never a saint, never wise
They will never want your well being
listen to the one giving you their hand
They can show off their wings
Virtue is such a cruel thing
My conscience sways
between crazy and an angel
it wants to start a fire
possess my soul
that's ready to burn to spare me from tears
My conscience sways
It forgives or avenges
It wants to set fire
Possess my soul
That's ready to burn
Burn burn, burn
I am the pleasant lie
Your way out when the truth eats at you
I am your ideal weapon
I will erase the line between good and bad
I am the one who speaks for you
The one who begs quietly to make the good choice
They will never want your well being
listen to the one giving you their hand
My conscience sways
between crazy and an angel
it wants to start a fire
possess my soul
that's ready to burn to spare me from tears
