En remontant le fleuve
Au-delà des rapides
Au-delà des falaises
Accrochées sur le vide
Où la faune et la flore jouent avec les langueurs
De la nuit qui s’étale, ivre de sa moiteur
En remontant le fleuve
Où d’étranges présences
Invisibles nous guettent
Et murmurent en silence
Où sales et fatigués
Sous les ombres englouties
Nous fixons les lueurs d’un faux jour qui s’enfuit
En remontant le fleuve
En remontant le fleuve
Au-delà des rapides
Au-delà des clameurs
Et des foules insipides
Où nos corps épuisés
Sous la mousse espagnole
Ressemblent au marbre usé
Brisé des nécropoles
Où nos thoniers des brumes
Dans l’odeur sulfureuse
Des moisissures d’épaves
Aigres et marécageuses
Nous conduisons nos âmes
Aux frontières du chaos
Vers la clarté confuse de notre ultime écho
En remontant le fleuve
En remontant le fleuve
Au-delà des rapides
Au-delà des aveux
De nos désirs avides
Jusqu’au berceau final
Sous les vanilles en fleur
Jusqu’à l’extrême arcane
Jusqu’à l’ultime peur
En remontant le fleuve
Vers cette éternité
Où les Dieux s’encanaillent en nous voyant pleurer
Où les stryges en colère
Au sourire arrogant
Manipulent les rostres de notre inconscient
En remontant le fleuve
En remontant le fleuve
Au-delà des rapides
Au-delà des remous
De nos sanglots stupides
Où cruels et lugubres
Au bout des répugnances
Nous fuyons les brouillards gris de notre impuissance
Vers les feux de nos doutes
Jusqu’au dernier mensonge
Dans la complexité sinistre de nos songes
Où de furieux miroirs
Nous balancent en cadence
La somptueuse noirceur
De nos âmes en souffrance
En remontant le fleuve
En remontant le fleuve
En remontant le fleuve
