Devils and Angels (Hatred)


Una canzone secondo me bellissima sull'odio che può portare alle conseguenze più nefaste ma anche essere motore di rivolta e cambiamento.


I read you said that the lyrics on this album are your favorite lyrics you've written, which is pretty impressive after writing all of these albums and two operas. The next song that we're going to hear you perform is "Devils & Angels (Hatred)" — pretty provocative title. Is there anything lyrically you would like people to listen for in this song?

It's a song that I wrote years ago when I was faced with a very difficult human situation, something that we all go through. Whether it's going to court, whether it's being sick, whether it's dealing with death of a parent, as people we're faced with these fundamental moments where we have to really suit up for battle and win the fight. I wrote that song at that time, so it's about — not embracing hatred, but using it to your advantage. And of course, now with what's going on with the civil rights issues and the police issues, the hatred is out there and we have to come to terms with it and make it into something positive and something that doesn't destroy us. So the song is a bit of a call to arms, but ultimately to end the war.
Rufus Wainwright Wants You To 'Unfollow The Rules'
Hatred on the horizon
Must be assumed for the ascension
Shatter the scepter
Lower the drawbridge
Drain the moat
Empty the catapult

Hatred on the horizon
Must be assumed for the ascension
Unlock the padlock
Swallow the key
For any prisoners there won't be any need

Hatred on the horizon
Must be assumed for the ascension
Sit out and wait
Wait on the throne
For it to take
And for the beasts to come

Devils, devils, and angels
I'm gonna give myself away
I'm gonna give myself away
Dispense with the niceties
Over, over to neither
I'm gonna give myself away
I'm gonna give myself away
To the monstrosities

Hatred on the horizon
Must be assumed
For the ascension
I hear galloping
Scent of blood
Under the fire
Behind the flooding

Devils, devils, and angels
I'm gonna give myself away
I'm gonna give myself away
Dispense with the niceties
Over, over to neither
I'm gonna give myself away
I'm gonna give myself away
To the monstrosities

Give away
Give away
Give myself
Give myself away
Give myself away
Give, give myself away

La versione francese della canzone pubblicata su un singolo
HAINE

Je sens, tapie dans mon ventre
La haine gonfle, odeur de cendre
Vous pouvez trembler
Derrière les hauts murs
Tomber boucliers
Jeter vos armures

Je sens, tapie dans mon ventre
La haine sourde, le feu me prendre
Sentez-vous le chaud
De mon tisonnier ?
Au diable, cachots
Pas de prisonniers

Je sens, couler dans mon ventre
Haine liquide, fleuve noir d'encre
Sentez-vous le flot
Inondant les douves ?
Gardez vos sanglots
Si la bête vous trouve

Démons, démons et brebis
Je vais laisser partir les coups
Je vais laisser sortir le loup
Briser le garde-fou
Partout, sans aucun répit
Je vais laisser pleuvoir les coups
Je vais laisser ce soir le loup
Déverser mon dégoût

Je sens, vibrer dans mon ventre
La haine vive, mon coeur se fendre
Sentez-vous la lame ?
Métal en fusion
Lorsque s'enflamment
Mes désillusions

Démons, démons et brebis
Je vais laisser partir les coups
Je vais laisser sortir le loup
Briser le garde-fou

Partout, sans aucun répit
Je vais laisser pleuvoir les coups
Je vais laisser ce soir le loup
Déverser mon dégoût
