(Monde en colère, armées en guerre)
(Dans le sang et dans la poussière)
Armour of dust (seul sur la grève)
Protect me from the madness of warriors (tu marches en rêve, baigné de larmes)
Give me the strength to stand (larmes amères)
In this world of folly and of tears (où est ton père?)
Armour of dust so strong and so weak (tombé sans haine, colère et folie)
♪
Where is the rose you promised me yesterday?
Where are the knights to kneel before their princess and pray?
Where are the horses, the king's horses and king's men pride?
Where are the heroes to save the little girl from the fire?
O dad, I feel so alone in the night
O I wish I could have you by my side
All that remains of you in my mind
Are the fairy tales we used to read together
Before the night
Armour of dust (armour of dust)
Protect me from the madness of warriors
Give me the strength to stand
In this world of folly and of tears
Armour of dust so strong and so weak
Where is the wand you promised me yesterday?
Where are the fairies to lean over the cradles and pray?
Where are the butterflies with their pretty colours in the light?
Where is the dragon to save the little girl from the mad?
O dad, I miss you so much when I cry
Watching all the blood shed by the child
Sacrificed on the altar of war
Protect me from those men
And their craving for cries and for pain
Armour of dust (armour of dust)
Protect me from the madness of warriors
Give me the strength to stand
In this world of folly and of tears
Armour of dust so strong and so weak
♪
How could you justify
The rapes, the killings and the crimes?
How could we let the mad
Become the leaders of the flock of lambs?
I feel just like a doll in the devil's hands
Surrounded by atrocities and pain
There is no magic anymore since you left
Only fading memories of your tales
Armour of dust (armour of dust)
Protect me from the madness of warriors
Give me the strength to stand
In this world of folly and of tears
Armour of dust so strong and so weak
Armour of dust
Protect me from the madness of warriors
