Ça brille au fond du tunnel

J'espère que c'n'est pas une illusion
I hope that it's not an illusion
J'les vois changer pour d'l'oseille
I see them change for money
Devenir de sombres trucs
Become dark things
Oseille, oseille, oseille
Money, money, money
En voilà, un sombre but
There's a dark goal
En manque de tout, c'est clair
Lacking everything, it's clear
J'me moque de toutes ces règles
I don't care about all these rules
En manque de tout, c'est clair
Lacking everything, it's clear
J'me moque de toutes ces règles
I don't care about all these rules
La voix d'la foule s'élève
The voice of the crowd rises
J'empoche un bout d'Eden
I pocket a piece of Eden
Mais ça m'rend seul, c'est vrai
But it makes me lonely, it's true
Bientôt, la coupe est pleine
Soon, the cup is full
J'pense aux milliardaires

Qui bloquent le jeu, c'est pas fair-play
Who block the game, it's not fair play
Plus que pas fair-play
More than not fair play
C'est un truc de fils de pute
It's a son of a b*tch thing
Ce monde est cruel
This world is cruel
Fais ton argent, ferme ta gueule
Make your money, shut your mouth
Parlons du bénéf'
Let's talk about the profit
Même si les mots n'ont pas d'valeur
Even if words have no value
Ce monde est si cruel
This world is so cruel
C'est sûr que ces gens viennent d'ailleurs
It's certain that these people come from elsewhere
Je rêve de leur planète
I dream of their planet
La main sur l'fusil mitrailleur
Hand on the machine gun
J'les vois, les autres qui rient
I see them, the others who laugh
J'me d'mande s'ils ont compris
I wonder if they understood
La fin du monde est proche
The end of the world is near
Et, moi, j'suis tellement loin d'mes proches
And I'm so far from my loved ones
Y a tellement d'choses qui clochent
There are so many things that are wrong
Le dire, c'est bien
To say it is good
Rien faire, c'est moche
To do nothing is bad
L'enfer tient dans mes poches
Hell fits in my pockets
L'enfer s'invite dans mes loges
Hell invites itself into my dressing rooms
Ce monde est cruel
This world is cruel
Comme le projet MK-Ultra
Like the MK-Ultra project
Plus secret qu'un agent secret
More secret than a secret agent
Un agent qui ne l'sait pas
An agent who doesn't know it
Ce monde marche sur la tête
This world is upside down
De manière abusive
In an abusive way
Je suis seul sur la Terre
I am alone on Earth
Les autres sont à l'usine
The others are at the factory
Ce monde est cruel
This world is cruel
Fais ton argent, ferme ta gueule
Make your money, shut your mouth
Parlons du bénéf'
Let's talk about the profit
Même si les mots n'ont pas d'valeur
Even if words have no value
Ce monde est si cruel
This world is so cruel
C'est sûr que ces gens viennent d'ailleurs
It's certain that these people come from elsewhere
Je rêve de leur planète
I dream of their planet
La main sur l'fusil mitrailleur
Hand on the machine gun

Did you like this lyrics translation?

oseille — money / dough

Oseille is a French slang term for "money" or "dough." While it literally means "sorrel" (a type of herb), its use as slang for money makes it an interesting and somewhat unexpected word.

In the song, Vald repeatedly uses oseille to highlight how people change and become "dark things" for money, emphasizing the corrupting influence of wealth. It's a vivid and colloquial way to express a central theme of the song.
