Smallville - I grieve, de Peter Gabriel

Cette chanson est décidément trop émouvante… C'est celle qui a accompagné l'enterrement de Jonathan Kent dans le 12ème épisode de la saison 5 de Smallville (”Pour le meilleur et pour le pire”), un épisode remarquable à plus d'un titre, puisque, en plus d'être marqué par la disparition du père de Clark alors qu'il venait de remporter les élections sénatoriales, il s'agissait du 100ème épisode de la série…

“Un seul être vous manque, et tout est dépeuplé…” Lamartine

I grieve - par Peter Gabriel

It was only one hour ago
It was all so different then
There's nothing yet has really sunk in
Looks like it always did
This flesh and bone
It's just the way that you would tied in
Now there's no-one home

I grieve for you J
You leave me
‘so hard to move on
Still loving what's gone
They say life carries on
Carries on and on and on and on

The news that truly shocks is the empty empty page
While the final rattle rocks its empty empty cage
And i can't handle this

I grieve for you
You leave me

Let it out and move on
Missing what's gone
They say life carries on
They say life carries on and on and on

Life carries on
In the people i meet
In everyone that's out on the street
In all the dogs and cats
In the flies and rats
In the rot and the rust
In the ashes and the dust
Life carries on and on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on

It's just the car that we ride in
A home we reside in
The face that we hide in
The way we are tied in
And life carries on and on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on
Did I dream this belief ?
Or did i believe this dream ?
Now i can find relief
I grieve Je souffre

Peter Gabriel
