This is a cover of Peace Sign, written by Lights. We covered the version from her acoustic album, featuring Coeur de Pirate.
lyrics
If they take my hand,
Will it be to burn me or to say ‘amen’?
We beckon so we can make amends,
And with the same flip of the hand we curse our friends.
Where it’s all a blur, you are the hard line.
In the disorder, you are the peace sign.
J’ai tant voulu savoir,
Si mes peurs ont tout fait pour m’égarer.
Mais quand la vérité se cache,
Je te suivrai où que tu veuilles aller.
Quand la guerre éclate, tu es le silence.
Et dans tout ce désordre, you are the peace sign.
I can’t tell if they’re laughing at me or with me.
All these hints and subtleties,
got me on my knees, begging for serenity.
And when it’s all a blur, you are the hard line.
In the disorder, you are the peace sign.
And when riots stir, tu es le silence.
And in the disorder, you are the peace sign.
Quand la guerre éclate, you are the sound mind.
Et dans tout ce désordre, you are the peace sign.
And in the disorder, you are the peace sign.
In the disorder, you are the peace sign.
