Elegy - Force Majeure lyrics

[Van der Laars/Parry] Known well and favoured There's no limit to his charm This illusive adversary, unforeseeable consequences Absurd behaviour, a macabre like frame of mind Living for the moment, not a care in the world Excuses one and more... proclamations he'll make You must, beware... a hand and arm he'll take ...He'll disregard us all Though in thee we trust Lead us not to temptation Help us one and all In the company of a force majeure Lead us, lead us not... beyond the realms of our salvation No sacrifice is more... than following a force majeure Each vow is broken, it's a total waste of life An urge to lead us on, irresistible strange compulsions Euphoric notions, superior in kind So irresponsible, for the fun of it all
