Lyrics:

Achilles, Achilles, Achilles, come down

Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?

You're scaring us and all of us,
some of us love you

Achilles, it's not much but there's proof

You crazy-assed cosmonaut,
remember your virtue

Redemption lies plainly in truth

Just humour us, Achilles,

Achilles, come down

Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?

“Je vois que beaucoup de gens meurent, parce qu’ils estiment que la vie ne vaut la peine d’être vécue. J’en vois d’autres, qui se font paradoxalement tués pour des idées, pour des illusions, qui leurs donnent une raison de vivre. Ce, qu’on appelle une raison de vivre est en même temps une excellente raison de mourir.”

Achilles, Achilles, Achilles, come down

Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?

The self is not so weightless,
nor whole and unbroken

Remember the pact of our youth

Where you go, I'm going,
so jump and I'm jumping

Since there is no me without you

Soldier on, Achilles,

Achilles, come down

Won't you get up off, get up off the roof?

Loathe the way they light candles in Rome

But love the sweet air of the votives

Hurt and grieve but don't suffer alone

Engage with the pain as a motive

Today of all days, see

How the most dangerous thing is to love

How you will heal and you'll rise above

“D’un gérant d’immeuble qui s’était tué on disait un jour qu’il avait perdu sa fille depuis cinq ana, qu’il avait beaucoup changé depuis et que cette historie l’avait—“

Achilles, Achilles, Achilles, jump now

You are absent of cause or excuse

So self-indulgent and self-referential
No audience could ever want you

You crave the applause yet hate the attention
Then miss it, your act is a ruse

It is empty, Achilles, so end it all now
It's a pointless resistance for you

“Ce qui déclenche la crise est presque toujours incontrôlable. Les journaux parlent souvent de « chagrins intimes » ou de « maladie incurable ». Ces explications sont valables. Mais il faudrait savior si le jour même un ami du désespéré ne lui a pas parlé sur un ton indifférent. Celui-là est le—“

Achilles, Achilles, just put down the bottle

Don't listen to what you've consumed

It's chaos, confusion and wholly unworthy
of feeding and it's wholly untrue

You may feel no purpose nor a point for existing
It's all just conjecture and gloom

And there may not be meaning,
so find one and seize it

Do not waste yourself on this roof

Hear those bells ring deep in the soul

Chiming away for a moment

Feel your breath course frankly below,
and see life as a worthy opponent

Today of all days, see

How the most dangerous thing is to love

How you will heal and you'll rise above

Crowned by an overture bold and beyond

Ah, it's more courageous to overcome

“Les souvenirs d’une partie perdu, l’espoir d’une terre promise. Ce divorce entre l’homme de sa vie—“

You want the acclaim, the mother of mothers
(It's not worth it, Achilles)

More poignant than fame
or the taste of another
(Don't listen, Achilles)

But be real and just jump,
you dense motherfucker
(You're worth more, Achilles)

You will not be more
than a rat in the gutter
(So much more than a rat)

You want my opinion,
my opinion you've got
(No one asked your opinion)

You asked for my counsel,
I gave you my thoughts
(No one asked for your thoughts)

Be done with this now and jump off the roof
(Be done with this now and get off the roof)

Can you hear me, Achilles? I'm talking to you

I'm talking to you [x3]

Achilles, come down

Achilles, come down

“Celle du oui et celle du non. Ce serait trop beau. Mais il faut faire la part de ceux qui, sans conclure, interrogent toujours. Ici, j’ironise à peine : il s’agit de la majorité. Je vois également que ceux qui répondent non agissent comme s’ils pensaient oui. De fait—“

Throw yourself into the unknown
with pace and a fury defiant

Clothe yourself in beauty untold
And see life as a means to a triumph

Today of all days, see

How the most dangerous thing is to love

How you will heal and you'll rise above

Crowned by an overture bold and beyond

Ah, it's more courageous to overcome

I genuinely forgot how long this song was 😂. Also, when I tell you I struggled with the French portion of the song, I STRUGGLED, and I find it funny that I struggled so hard because French is my mother tongue and google can't help for shit because the spelling is wrong. I speak fluent English and French and basic Spanish & Irish. BUT I FUCKING STRUGGLED!!!

Here's the English Translation for the French:

0:40 “I witness that a lot of people are dying because they consider that life is not worth living Paradoxically, I witness other people who are being killed for their ideas, their illusions, which give their existence a sense, What we call a reason to live is also an excellent reason to die.”

2:07 “A property manager who committed suicide said he lost this daughter fiver years ago, that he had changed a lot since then and that this story had-“

2:46 “What triggers the crisis is almost always out of control. The newspapers often speak “intimate sorrows” or “incurable disease.” These explanations are valid. But we should know if that very day a friend of the desperate man spoke to him in an indifferent tone. This one is the—“

4:24 “Memories of a lost game, the hope for a promised land. This divorce between the man of his life—“

5:48 “That of yes and that of no. It would be too good. But, we must take into account those who, without concluding, are still questioning. Here, I am hardly ironic: it is about the majority. I also see that those who answer no act as if they think yes. In fact—”

Everytime you share a video, it makes me happy cause I love discovering new songs (bytheway I discovered many songs thanks to you) and your aesthetics are always amazing. I've been always thinking positive about you like how I love and appreciate your work. But just realised whats the point unless you share positivity.
