Le Paradis Noir

The ground has slipped under my steps
I am now walking in darkness
This night the bells tolled
I shall cry for eternity

It is that place called Heaven
That leaves me alone in the dark
It is that God who cursed me
That fills me with despair

The monks of dark stones
Have doomed me for a crime
But I could go through hell
To see you again, Marie, in the sky

Why should I wander through darkness
When I am a white angel
I wish I were still a human being
And not that doomed angel .
